by James A. Tying Of Baltusrol. chair
man of tho handicap committee Jerome
u. Travers keeps his place at scratch
despite the fact that he Is no longer rhe
Metropolitan champion. and as was the
case last year. no one Ia placed on the
mark
| Oswald Kirkby. holder Of the Metro
poli,an title. and Walter J. Travis, who
was runner-up to Klrkby at Englewood
| last May. are together at 2. Fred Herre-
shorr who was with them last year, be-
ing among the 2 men on tho new list.
with Hcrreshoff at are r. NJ. Byers
and W. x. Whlgham, VINO occupied the
same position a year ago.
Fifteen golfers have been rated at 4.
a decrease of one. although there have
been n number Of changes in tho little
group. The changes for the most part
have consisted in promoting number
| Of promising young golfers from to 4.
| and the dcmotion of some OF the aging
| veterans from TO 3. Philip Garter,
| Reginald W. Lewis. j. ~ Stearns. Jr..
| Gardner W. white and Nelson Whit
ney are the golfers who have been adj
| Vanccd and tho ones who have dropped
| back are MAX 1tenT, -. ~ boN'to'
John NJ Ward and Robert G.. Watson.
In addition tho names Of two golfers
who were rated at 4 last year do not
| appear on the new list They are w.
| T. Tuckerman, who really Ia a Washing
| ton golfer and plays little In the me-
tropolitan district, and Gilman J.. TIT
fanny. Tho omission OF Tiffany. who IL
ono OF the hes, known golfers In the
district. liz due to the fact that his CLUB
| powclton. neglected to send in any re-
port Powelton and the Ocean Country
club are the only clubs In the associa-
/ ton which failed to report.
The new la, contains only golfers con-
sidered worthy Of handicaps OF or less.
and contains $50 names. an Increase or
! eighteen over last year. That the L. :.
O. A handicap list was not used as
guido by the Metropolitan committee Is
made evident by a comparison Of many
e the names on both lists. In fact the
| Metropolitan committee seems TO think
! that the L. :. -. A. has been too gener-
ous, and many golfers at on the Y. g..
q. \ list will ind that they are at
= or : on the Metropolitan list. There
are ninety Metropolitan golfers on the
/ national list which goes no higher than
6, hut on the Metropolitan list there are
only seventy-two golfers at or better.
About the only instance In which a
golfer gets a better rating on the Metro
politan list IL In the case Of Oswald
Kirkby. who is at on the NJ. q. A. list
and at 2 on tho u g. q. A. ratings.
