action on nineteen local district links
this afternoon for blood and glory. and
the mems team golf championship Of
the Suburban League.
Last year North Hills was wide
open favorite over the field and won |
the title. This year Aronimink is the
same kind Of favorite, and on the
early morning data seems to hold still
more Of an edge over the field for the
| coming battles than did North Hills last
! year.
Therefore, the other clubs conccde the
Drexel Hillians the 1921 title, but will
do everything in their power to prove
they are wrong.
In other words. Aronmink. II il is 10
, win. will only gain the top over n pile
of busted sticks and memorable matches.
Each club sends ten men into the
field. five playing at home and five away.
. Thus Haddon sends five men to Frank
ford and Frankford sends five to Had
don. Matches are played on points.
II there is tie on team matches won
at the end. the points won at individual
matches count.
1t looks as though all of the semi
hnnlistS last year are weaker this year,
except Aronimink, which is stronger.
and is said to have twenty players there
capable OF S5 or better any old day in
the week.
