Local Golf Association
Drifting the Wrong Way

Ing N gave some interesting inforna-
ton with regard to the last junior tourna-
ment. as may be seen by the following:
The VI q. A. executive committee
having requested the local committee
from this club to run of the first junior
championship held under the auspices OF
the association. the following report
thereon IS respectfully submitted:
The purpose Of this tournament was
twofold. The chief object was to encour-
are and stimulate an interest IN the game
among the younger players I'm this dis
trict IN order 20 develop recruits TO MI
tho ranks later I'm more important events
and thus enable the Metropolitan asso-
citation 10 hold IFS own with other asso-
cations throughout the country. re-
lated object was to ascertain whether a
Junior championship can Doe made success
M enough 20 Justify holding ono each
year az a regular metropolitan fixture.
I'VE had no doubt from the beginning
that the boys themselves are Interested
and will always support such an event.
the only obstacle I'm the way OF its sue
tho part of parents to permit young boys
10 spend n night away from home In or
der 10 participate IN a golf tournament.
with tho exception Of boys living within
easy reach OF the club at which such a
tournament Is held II will always be
necessary for competitors TO leave their
homes the day before I'm order to have a
practice round Of play and in order to
be on hand early on the morning OF the
tournament
10 overcome this difficulty We mailed
personal cards OF invitation 10 the parents
Of all competitors. explaining that their
sons would be entertained over night in
the homes OF our club members and that
none Of the boys would be put up at the
clubhouse. This assured a proper environ
ment and made 1t entirely possible for
boys as young as thirteen and fourteen
years Of age 20 take part About one
half of the competitors from out Of town
took advantage OF this invitation. and a
committee Of women met them on their
arrival at the club the day before and as
signed them to their respective hosts.
THAT the tournament was n complete
success was shown by the number OF en-
tries and the interest in the tournament
on the part Of both players and spec
tators. There were forty entries and
thirty-seven starters. Three players were
unavoidably prevented at the last mo-
mcnt from taking part. This must come
near being a record as to the percentage
of starters"
