to- secure as entrants every player
of note in the world and to make the
{ tourney real victory jubilee cham
pionship." Every golfer in Wash
inston will be expected to lend HIS
cooperation to the scheme. and club
members of the other golf clubs here
to prepare to handle the various
phases of such an all-embracing fea-
ture.
Object to Precedent.
Opinion in official go.f circles points
to the fact that it is high time that
the so-called championship courses
should include all really first-ciass
courses. without regard to prece-
dent. England has several first
class courses, which constitute the
places where the championship is
he'd. And there has been no devia-
ton from the time-honored custom of
placing the title event a one of these
hallowed pinnacles. But officials here
do not fall in with the British opinion
that there should be an established
round of championship courses. and
hold the belief that all first-class
courses should be included in the
J championship round.
The furthest point south the mems
event has ever been he'd is Phi1a-
delphla. where Chick Evans won the
title over the Merton Cricket Club
| course in 1916. The womens event
was held at Chevy Chase in 1908 and
since that time no championship of
n national character has been held
south of Philadelphia.
The. project has already received
the enthusiastic support of prac-
| tically every golfer in the National
Capital. and. should the champion
ship be awarded to Columbia. as is
highly probable. it should and will
be one of the most successful ever
held by the L. S. G: A. Surely no
course in the country will be better
fitted for the event by 1920. and no
club will be able to turn in a stronger
bid.
