PITTSBURG IN EAST;
DECIDED BY FOWNES

OPPOSE WEST THURSDAY

For a good many years Pittsburgs
status on the golhng rap has been an
question. for no n knew whether
Pittsburg was East or West when 1t
came to playing golf. and the golfers
from western Pennsylvania have added
TO the mystery by playing in the cham
pionships of the Western Golf tssocia-
ton in the summer, and the Lesley
cup matches, a purely Eastern function,
in the fail. The mystery no longer
exists, for william c. Fownts, Jr., of
Pittsburg. national champion in 1910.
has furnished the solution. Fownes
has been getting up an East VS.. West
team match, TO he played as a prelude
to the national amateur championship at
Detroit on Thursday of this week. and
he has decided that Pittsburg is East.
The fact that his decision will enable
him to have as teammates Jerome u.
Travers. Francis Ouimet and other East
ern golfers OF note may have Influenced
Fownes in making his decision and hen
again IL may not have done SO. At
any rate, the Eastern golfers are not
likely to object. for Fowncs, 4. VI.
Byers and George Ormiston will add
strength TO any team. What the West
erners will think Of the desertion Of
their Pittsburg allies is another ques-
ton, and Fownos will have 10 face the
music from that quarter on Thursday.
There won't he much that the Western
ers can do about II, however. for II is
Fownes's own competition and he is
making the rules.
The plans made for the match by
Fownes provide for teams Of ten men
from each section. Four ball matches
will be played on Thursday morning and
singles In the afternoon.
Just who will play on the two teams
has not been decided definitely yet. but II
Is expected that the headliuers on the
two teams will he jerome u. Travers,
national open champion. and Charles
Evans, Jr, Western amateur champion.
Francis Ouimet. holder OF the national
amateur title, will he the second man on
