PORT DEPOSIT. Nd, March 1.-the
prospects for an exceptionally strong base

The handicap rating list Of the
United States Golf Association is re-
leased for publication this morning and
will prove interesting reading to fol-
lowers of the game all over the coun-
try. The committee of nine having
the ratings in charge has labored dill
gently since the close of last season
and its work is about all that can be
asked for in the, way of fairness and
good judgment
Only two players are at scratch, Je-
rome D. Travers of the Upper Mont
clair Country Club and Francis ouimet
of the Woodland Golf Club. Consider
able interest centered around Ouimet,
as his state association had placed him
two strokes back Of scratch, but the
U. S. G. A. executive committee decided
to start him all even.
Only one man gets the handicap of a
single stroke, and that is Charles
("Chick") Evans, jr., of the Edgewater
Golf Club
Four in Two-Stroke Glass.
In the two-stroke class are four, e.
NJ. Byers of the Oakmont Country Club,
w. c. Fownes. jr, also of the oak
mont Country Club; Walter j. Travis OF
the Garden City Golf Club and w. K.
Wood of the Flossmoor Country Club.
Twelve players are in the three
stroke class, f. p. Allis. Sd, Milwau-
kee Country Club; J. G. Anderson of
the Brae-Burn Country Club, B. w.
Corkran of the Baltimore Country Club.
H. C.. Egan of the Exmoor Country
Club, r. A. Gardner of the Hinsdale
Golf Club. r. r. Gorton of the Brae-
Burn Country Club. Oswald kirkby of
the Engelwood Country Club, Frederick
Of America. Mason Phelps of the Chi
cago Golf Club, J. B. Schlotman of the
Country Club of Detroit, Albert Seckel
of the Riverside Golf Club and P. w.
Whittemore of the Country Club.
There are an even fifty players in
the four strokes class, and Walter X.
Tuckerman of the Chevy Chase Club is
the only local man who Is a member OF
this group. Mr.. Tuckerman carries the
same handicap as last year, his con-
sistent playing emitting him to the
honor. Other well known golfers i'll
this group are J. r. Hyde of the West
brook Golf Club. who has been very
prominent in all the tournaments down
south this winter; A. NJ. Reid OF the st:
Andrews Golf Club, T. NJ. Sherman OF
the Sadauuada Golf Club, John NJ. Ward
of the Garden City Golf Club and K
c. Watson of the Westbrook Golf Club.

Davidson is a Columbia Country Club
man, while the other three belong to
the Chevy Chase Club. This year the
ers being added and one dropped. Mr..
Lard being the solitary individual to
recede in his playing. The new men
are all in the five strokes class and
embrace J. T. Bishop, recently of the
Yale golf team and now a member of
erman, Chevy Chase, and E. 3. Eynon,
jr., L. L. Harlan and George P. James
of the Columbia Country Club
This makes an equal division OF the
Club golfers. each having four. Mr..
James splendid victory over the vet
eran Walter Travis last fall doubtless
convinced the executive committee that
he was entitled to the distinction OF
being listed with players of real class.
The class of five strokes is made up
of 204 players. and when it is consid- :
cred that almost all the golf clubs OF
the United States are entitled to rep
resentation the list is a small one.
Official Notes.
The executive committee adds the
following to the official rating list:
Because of the large membership in
this association it is irnpracticable to
fix a handicap for players who deserve
rating greater than five strokes.
If any player whose name does not
appear on the official handicap list
desires a handicap. he may submit TO
the secretary for consideration py tne
executive committee three scores, Verl-
fed by a maker and certified by the
secretary of his club, of three rounds
of eighteen holes each, played on d1f-
ferent days over the regular course
of a club, a member of this associa-
ton. together with such other evidence
as the executive committee may re-
uuire Any player whose name ap-
pears on the official handicap list in
like manner may apply to have mis-
handicap changed. provided no player
shall be eligible to enter the amateur
championship. except by special invi-
tation of the executive committee,
whose name is not on the official list
on file in the Office of the secretary
Of the association at least thirty days
prior to the date fixed for the begin
ming Of such championship.
The executive committee recommends
that in match play singles, three
handicaps be allowed and that in
match play, foursomes. three-eighths
of the difference between the combined
handicaps be allowed.
The executive committee of the
United States Golf Association COM
prises the following: Frank L. Wood
ward, Howard w. Perrin, John Reid,
jr.; Percy r. Pyne, Cd: Howard F.
Whitney, NJ. Lewis Crosby, Walter S.
Harlan. Walter 3. Smith and John S.
