 Such was the unanimous expression Of every member of the Montgomery Golf and Country club at mass meeting of the members on last Saturday night.

 Montgomery is going after the south erp tournament. and there is every indi- cation that the local club will secure the big meet officers of the Southern Golf association have assured members of the Montgomery club that the tournament will be theirs for the asking, and dozen or more big clubs in the association nave also promised to pull for Montgomery In l9l3 The golf clubs of Birmingham, Mem phis, Chattanooga. Pensacola, Mobile New Orleans and other places have gwen their consent to come to Montgomery in 19l3 The members of the Birmingham Golf club have given unanimous approval to the proposition, having. at recent golf meet in that city, voted to man to bring the big tournament here In Sl5.
 Advantages of Local Links
 In making a bid for the southern golf tournament in 1918 Montgomery is favored to an unusual degree in being able to offer one of the finest golf courses in the country The opinion of members or other clubs in the south, and the verdict of tourists from the big eastern clubs is that Montgomery has a course second to none in the entire south, while many have given the local links first place among the golf clubs in the southern states.
