are only thirty days in the month. but
thirty one days will be taken up with
golf tournaments. and none of these
will bc played on Sunday. and there
are five Sabbsths in the month
One tournament follows on the heels
Of another. and in one week there are
four tournaments in this little burg
And this does not take into account the
Saturday tournaments which most of
the thirty two clubs in the local dis.
trict play.
There is one tournament this week
three next week. -four the following week
and the month ends with the amateur
championship. when there is no con
hirting tournament. Just how the local
golfers are going to play in even the
majority Of these is mystery, for it
cannot be done. even if the golfers
neglect business.
The tournaments open Thursday of
thiS week. when the Woodbury. and
Frankford Country Clubs will battle
on home links for the Suburban Cup
championship. The same day the North
Hills Country Club breaks into the
limelight with the first invitation
tournament that the club has ever held
Many of the Frankford and few of
the Woodbury. players will enter. and
as result some the suburban matches
will be played in advance.
North Hills winds up its tournament
