great golfers meet only rarely in
hampionships and not too often in

the articles of agreement signed by
President Allen of the Little Rock
Club. in which il is set forth that
Miller and Brottem are to be turned

TO Little Rock and a check for the
money will be mailed when Miller and
Rrottem join us. 1t is not due until

The Washington club cannot be
held accountable for the fact that. as
reported. the two players it sent to
Little Rock failed to favorably inn
