GOLF MATCH CALLED OFF
Women of East and West Will
Not Meet for Trophy.
SOME FRICTION CROPS OUT
Few Players from This Section
Going to Chicago for Ma
tional Tourney.

There will be no match between Eastern
and Western women golf teams this fall.
That much was announced yesterday by
Mrs. E. T. Sanford. president of the Wom-
ems Eastern Golf Association, after be-
coming satisfied that this part of the cOun-
try was going 70 be SHINY represented in
the national championship tournament to
be held over the links of the Homewood
Country Club at Flossmore, ILL.,, from Oc-
tober 10 to Is. Heretofore the matches be-
tween the Eastern and Western women's
associations have been held coincident with
the United States Golf Association cham
pionship, and up to date the Eastern team
has won two legs on the ". B. Thomas
trophy.
No match took place last year, for the
reason that the West found 1t impossible
to muster a team, which would have had TO
travel TO the Merton Cricket Club. near
Philadelphia The West offered to default.
but the Women's Eastern Golf Association
would not accept a victory that way. It is
quite likely, therefore, that the Western
women will now return the compliment by
refusing to take the cup without playing
for it.
So far as can be learned, the Eastern
action Of the United States Golf Associa-
West this year. The contention hereabouts
is that it is better to hold the champion
ship in the East, where a majority of the
best players reside. AS a matter Of fact.
all the women's national tournaments from
1895 to 1902. inclusive. were decided in the
East Since then. however, the West has
had its share. for in 1903 the tournament
went TO Wheaton, 70 Midlothian in 1907,
and now Homewood gets it.
A rather significant announcement comes
in the statement that the Country Club
Of Brookline has arranged to hold an in
vitaIion tournament for women on October
Il to 20. It can be seen at a glance thai
this Immediately follows the national dates
so that il would be next TO impossible fol
golfers TO compete in both. Furthermore
a local golfer said last night that IN al
proba bility nearly the entire strength Of
the East would be represented a Brookline
and she added. This should show the
United States Golf Association that we
won't go West so often
Word has also been cleaned TO the effect
that the Midland Golf Club, Of Garder
City, is arranging 10 hold three-day
tournament for women over the Salisbury

DAYS have not been fixed as yet, as ar
effort will be made 70 avoid a conflict with

The controversy between Henry B. Sea-

narrowed down last night to a dispute be-
tween the contesting parties as to whose
Interpretation Of the documents that throw
light upon the Bradley Contracting Com

Mr. Seaman decided last night that the
statement given out yesterday afternoon
by Chairman Wilcox disposed of the ques-
ton as to whether his resignation was
voluntary or not. and he concentrated his
attention upon the explanation of the
Bradley contract as given by Commission
er Edward NJ Bassett. This came after
Mr. Seaman was informed that his letter

had been made public.
