Nature Of Soil and Facilities for
Upkeep Make Course Ideal
in August.
WILL NOT OPPOSE OTHERS

Garden city may develop into a for
midible rival of Fox Hills and Baltusrol
for the honor Of holding the national open
championship. The big Long Island club,
with its usual spirit Of generosity, offered
the use Of it's course to the United states
Golf Association for any one OF the three
championship Journeys, and there are a
number of prominent golfers who think
that advantage should he taken VI the
offer rs far as the open championship is
concerned.
The advocates OF this idea say that the
fact that Fox Hills and Baltusrol want
the tournament while Garden city is
making no active efforts to get II. should
be subordinated to the fact that Garden
City is the hest place to hold IL.
The condition OF the Garden city course
in late August Is the biggest point urged
In its favor. In recent years the open
championship generally has been played
in the latter part OF August. when Ameri-
can golf courses are at their worst, and
