Two innovations We're introduced by

the selecting of the best athletes and
sending them to New Orleans to participate
in the national championships. The first

GOLF.

IN reviewing the golf season from a To-

sidered as distinct feat:Tes-tirst. the pass
ing of the old Columbia golf course, prob
ably more familiar to golfer: of national
reputation than any other in this section,
and secondly. the exceptional play OF Mr..
Tuckerlnan. a nonresident player of the
Chevy Chase Club, in the important ANA
teur open tournaments of th3 country.
The historic Columbia course, scene of
many an exciting encounter. stood the
final test during tle past week, when
