DISCUSS RATIO

Just because Mrs. Gavin and other

abouts on the average course, while
Ouimet, Travers and others are eoin1
around in %, does not mean that the
ratio is IS 10 So. II must be taken
into consideration that on every

women drive from tees that reduce
considerably the distance to the green
on some courses this NAV NOT
necessarily amount 10 a great deal
but in difficult rounds like those at
Garden city Brae Burn, Baltusrol and
others similar. IL results in a great
difference Matches staged on these
courses with both men and women
driving from the same tee would
mean that the average stroke allow

would be much higher than generally-
supposed
The trouble has been that in such
matches heretofore short tees have
been used This condition has. Of
course, changed the situation en-
tirely and has given 10 the decision
OF the contest no degree OF fiua1i+v
