NOTES OF GOLF AND GOLFERS.

Professional golfers actively engag-
ed in work. at country clubs have
been declared in non-essential in
date few golfers who are paid for
their services have obtained neces-
sary work in the line of war actfvi-
ties. How the professionals will be
affected by the new draft regulations
remains to be seen. No direct test
case has been brought up for deci-
sion by the War Department under
Provost Marshal General Crowder's
work or fight edict, but professionals
see no reason why they should be
specially exempted as a class. Many
of them have enlisted and many
others are preparing to enlist. The
large number, however. are still at
their clubs.
Wholesale sending of the golf pro-
fessionals of the country into the
Army will cause no great hardship,
according to unofficial opinions ex-
pressed here, but 1t is probable that
some definite decision will be made
in the cases OF the pros within short

next golfing season rolls around, and
that the majority of the clubs will be
without pros or will have to employ
older men.
That the pros this year will paly in
at least one tournament Is indicated
by the determination of the Philadel-
phia Golf Association to hold it's an
nual open tournament starting next
Thursday. Fred Mcleod of Columbia,
Jack Burgess of Chevy. Chase and
Jimmie spencer of the Town and
Country Club will comprise the local
delegation to attend the tourney.
This event. possibly the last in which
the eastern pros will play for the
duration of the war. will attract all
the best professionalogolfers in the
east and some from the west, ac-
cording to reports. Walter C. Hagan,
