TO PLAY FOR TITLE
Women of Shawnee Golf Club in
Matches Next Week.

The first round of the women's
tournament at the Shawnee Golf club
will be played next week. The con-
testants. who have been paired by the
tournament committee Of the club.
must play eighteen holes some day
during the week. The second round
will start the following week.
The winner of the tournament
will be the woman champion of the
club for the year. A great deal of
interest is being taken in the event
and about fifteen golfers will enter.
This has been considered an impor-
tant affair for a long time. due to the
large number of women golfers in
Topeka. Until recently. women have
taken little part in contests. except
in occa sional mixed Scotch foursomes,
and this marks a new era in golf for
the city.
