golfers. especially the women, who
have been unable to take part or
witness golf matches on account of
taking an active interest in Red

Scores of out-of-town entrants in
the state tourney arrived in Omaha
Saturday and yesterday. and played
on the Field club course in order
to be acquainted with the course.
