Golf Association Should
Adopt Mem Amateur Rule
Present Day Interpretation Has Too Many Faults, Says
Anderson-Clearer Meaning Wanted
Chance for Woodland.
~ JOHN q.

There are many angles to the what
seems to be ever present amateur ques-
tion. Two weeks ago we spoke Of the
need for only one national organixa-
ton. and the consequent necessity Of
gaining and maintaining harmony among
all the responslble-active and associ-
ate-clubs In the United States Golf
Association. Failure to pursue a har-
monious course means. Of course. that
the reigning ofacials believe that an
other ear would silence the clamor Of
discomfort because Of inactivity, or that
any hostile movements would not get
enough Of the desired n necessary re-
Spouse. In regard to the latter only
time will tell. and as for the former the
meeting Of next January will tell the
story.
For ten months nov We have heard
rabid discussion about what constitutes
an amateur. The rule has been printed
from one end Of the country to the other
and the Interpretation, which has caused
all the trouble. Is as we'll known almost
as the alphabet. Perhaps q dozen golf
ers have been affected by the ruling. IND
one wonders why this dozen could not
have q their cases attended to in some
other way than has been the case.
We have heard that special cases were

Loss should BE Added.

Inc Interpretation by the committee
mas surely been at fault in more thar
one instance unless In the word profit
the word loss also be added, for we have
the case OF "a well known golfer who has
lost much money In the pursuit of the
business OF golf sporting goods. Surely
ne should be a better amateur than any
one else II he loses money In the pursuit
OF the game.
RMS same golfer cannot come under
the nrst clause because he Is neither
agent nor employee. but owner. Yet he
mas been classed this year as a nom
amateur. which Is nearer han first cou-
sin to a professional.
A snort time ago a young man in
Philadelphia was classed as a profess
slonal because he sold golf goods behind
a counter and "a prize he won was taken
away from him. Francis Ouimet
would not have been permitted to play
as an amateur this year at Merton be-
sporting goods he would bring to the
contest some atmosphere which would
not be In keeping with "a purely gentle
manly sport"
This last phase In taken from the 1915
Year Book OF the Y. s. O.. A., page 2Ol,
where It says In speaking Of the anna
teur question: THE agitation Of this
question has been beneficial, for II has
served to make more widespread the
knowledge OF the rule with an appreci-
alton OF the reasons for it's strict en-
forcement II golf is to be maintained
purely as a g6ntremanly sport" Does
this mean a sport Just for gentlemen. a
distinct class distinction. or sport to be
played In a gentlemanly way?
II tho Woodland club ran present an
amateur rule. or II any club or persons
can present u fair II square amateur
rule 70 the golfers OF the country. I
have no doubt the delegates assembled
next month will think twice before turn
Ing II down. The question looms up
bigger every day.

In the fourth annual report Of the

gives a detailed account Of the benefits

leasuers. have obtained through Joining

states that the organisation, which has
Just completed Its fourth year. continues

ability to accomplish BENEFITS for it,
members.
The report shows that only two clubs
in the major leagues. Philadelphia and
Cleveland American League clubs. are
not members Of the fraternity. The
players OF one other club. the Chicago
White Sox, have shown a lack OF inter-
est. Their lack Of interest. however,
has been more than offset. according to
Fultx. by the large representation In all
parts Of the country.
In the minor leagues. according to
President Fultz. the fraternity has made
rapid strides. Three Class "A clubs.
Baltimore. Indianapolis and San Fran
cisco. are not in the organization. but
membership In the others Is large.
Every club in the Southern Association
Is represented with entire strength ex-
cept the Mobile club. There In room
for improvement In the membership
from the Western League. says Fultx.
The return OF q number Of Federal
League players Increased the active
membership considerably during the past
season. The total enrolment consists Of
1875 members.
Players Forbidden to Join.
President Fultx states that. according
to reports made to him. players have
been forbidden to Join the fraternity
from the Philadelphia Americans. In
dianapolis and Denver clubs, and adds II
this be true all three three clubs have
violated the fraternity agreement which
says that there shall be no discrimina-
ton against the fraternity members.
As to what has been accomplished
officially since October I, 1915, Fultx
says that in $40 cases advice has been
given to players.
Claims Of Players Won.
Many claims OF players were taken UP
by the fraternity on formal afYidavits
during the past year. OF these eleven
were decided in favor OF the players by
the National Commission. which In every
instance sustained the claim. Out OF
eleven cases brought before the national
board seven were decided In favor Of the
players. three met with adverse deci-
sions and no action was taken in one
claim. Five out Of six complaints OF
players against clubs we're allowed and
three others. which were placed with at
torneys for suit, were adjusted.
The sun olfs7.5?i.ss was recovered
from club owners through the instru-
mentality OF the fraternity. and In addl-
ton the validity Of certain contracts was
established. saving 32.775 TO the players
involved.
