as Norman Maxwell in the Philadelphia
district. The leading competitions will
find about the same players enrolled
with Gardner White. Max Marston
John 6. Anderson, Phil Carter, Reggie
Lewis and Henry Topping close upon
Kirkby's line of march.
Phil Carter hasn't been playing as
we'll in the South this winter as he
played last year, but that may mean
little, as his victorious march ceased
suddenly after he landed back in New
York. There is a chance that Norman
Maxwell, the brilliant young Phi ladel
phia star, will enter at Lakewood. and
il he does there will be a strong fgi
by the New York contingent to get his
scalp in revenge for the many defeats
he has tossed into local players since
last summer.
To-day is also the day Of the Grand
Old Abb. The air will be rife with
such phrases as: Haven't played a
round since last fall" Haven't gotten
going yet;" "Ncver saw the old course
in such poor shape" Greens are
fierce" and all the chattering rest OF
it SO familiar to the golfing ear.

this the trOttCr and thoroughbred

most Of Us feel that IL rs n public

interest in the horse through rae
