New Tourney Idea
One OF the most complicated tourna =
ments from a statistic standpoint is the
annual dinner tourney. It Is nothing
strange or unusual for Frank Warner
secretary Of the association, who does
the fggering. to be still scratching away
at the sheets by the light Of the moon
and things They come in and have "a
light matches to see the scoreboard. Ir
al that shower Of fours and eights anL
even tens it's n wonder the final win
ners are ever determined.
The entry list usually runs up around
the 80 mark. They play the tourna
ment on two courses. There ar,
thirty six hole runds and eighteen hole
rounds. There are gross and ne,
scores. Added to this, the player,
compete In three classes, A, B and G
according 10 handcaps. All of which
makes it lovely for those in charge o,
the statistics, since entries. fees, start,
ing. scoring, and this, that and th,
other has to be taken care OF also.
In the heat of the tourney yesterday
Secretary Warner had happy thought
