the shake up all but three members of

regatta at the end of the season, were
relegated to the second combination.
1t was thought that with seven of last
years varsity eight on hand for an
other year that DIR. Spaeth would not
conduct his experimenting far, but he
has upset all predictions by his series
of radical changes. The only certain
places seem to be those of stroke and

not tend to inspire confidence in O'Don-

WOMEN TO RESTRICT
MET GOLF TOURNEY
Years Residence to BE Eligi-
bility Qualification for
Championship.
NASSAU GETS TITLE MEET
Delegates at Annual Associa-
ton Meeting Vote to Hold
Classic Week of June 20.
BY KERR n. PETRIE.

According to a decision arrived at by
the delegates at the annual meeting OF
the Women's Metropolitan Golf AS
ISOLATION held yesterday n the Biltmore
Hotel ii will be impossible for a player
to come here on visit from abroad
and win the championship honors Of
that organization hereafter, such as
virtually occurred last year when Mrs
c. NJ. knight, an English star, annexed
the qualifying medal at Greenwich, and
was only prevented from carrying or
the title as we'll by the superlative bril-
lance of Mrs. Quentin F'eitner of South
Shore Field Club.
In all fairness it muSt be said that
the Womens Metropolitan Golf Associa-
ton is not actuated by narrow or selfish
motives in thus putting UP the bars
against foreign competition, but merely
feels as the men do. that metropolitan
championship is nothing more nor less
than a district event, and that as such II
should be restricted as nearly as posi-
BILE to those who are bona fide residents
OF the New York section.
However, the fair ones do not intend.
like the men, TO bar all but genuine New
Workers. from competing in their annual
tournament What they viii insist on
as soon as there is time to make the
necessary amendments to the constitu-
ton is that before becoming eligible to
compete in the metropolitan woman
must have been a resident of this dis
trict for one year. Heretofore it has
sufficed that one be n member of
metropolitan club.
What has influenced the women TO
make the change as much as anything
else apparently is the fact that it was
matter of some difficulty to obviate the
inclusion of the district champion in the
team playing against Boston and Phila-
delphia in the Griscom cup matches.
Mrs knight came here from England
last spring and remained in this country
about three months altogether. Under
the impression that she had come to
reside permanently in this country and
the metropolitan district the committee,
because of her splendid showing in the
championship. naturally gave her place
on the team
That this did not altogether meet
with the approval of the rival forces
was made apparent by the answer given
TO a query of the Philadelphia women
by one of the Boston players as to
whether all of the New York team had
put in an appearance.
II can't tell you, I'm sure said the
other. THE last ship from England
hasn't come In yet"
