NOVEL GOLF TOURNEY

Something new in golf tournaments
has been devised by the golfers of the
University Club. who were among the
first to hold one day tournaments in tins

ade the University club golfers nave
held their competitions twice a year,
and the fields have been growing bigger
with each succeeding tourney until II
has become a difficult task u
date all that want to play.
In order tn do away with the over
crowding problem the committee In
charge Of this years fall tournament
has arranged for the Use of TWO courses.
Nassau and Piping Rock both Of which
will he given over {, the University club

tober 20. The field will bo divided into
two sections. one OF which VIII play ~
Nassau in the morning while the other
Ia playing at Piping Rock. After
luncheon the two sections will swap
courses, those who play at Nassau IN
the morning going over TO Rping Rock
for their second round and the Piping
Rock contingent transferring it's activ-
tiles TO Nassau.
Enough automobiles will he provided
TO transport the golfers from one course
to the other-a distance of only two or
three miles-as expeditiousiy as possible
and IL Is expected thai the utilization of
the two courses will enable well over a
hundred golfers to take part IN the
tourney and play thirty-six holes with
out Inconvenience. The experiment is
one that will be watched with interes,
by similar golfng organizations tina;

Purse to Meet Winner Of the
COffey-M Moran Bout.

Thirty thousand dollars for a ten

by Billy Gibson to Jess Willard to meet
the winner Of the Corey-Moran fight In

any other guarantee given to a fighter
for a limited engagement In which no

pected knockout route. No decisions are
allowed at present In New York state
and even IL the worlds champion In out
pointed by his opponent he will lose none
OF the prestige he gained by the defeat
OF Jack johnson.
Billy Gibson has been negotiating for
some time with the idea of getting the
worlds champion in the ring, Fight
fans marvelled when Packey Mcfarland
was coaxed to come East to meet Mike
Gibbons. Flo this he received $17,500.
This sum Is made to look like the incen-
tive for II preliminary by the mention
OF the money that will go to Jess willard

by Jack johnson for "A championship

night was that 1t certainly would bring

Whether or not the offer IL accepted
it will lend additional interest to the
