My Byers stated that no action would be taken until after the annual meeting of the Western Golf Associa- ton on Saturday. President Byers as- serted that a greater spirit of harmon between the U. s. c. A. and the sec- tional organizations now prevailed and that there was every indication that solution of differences of opinion on the rules was in sight.

FACTORY SERIES
 OPENS TOMORROW
Corbin and Stanley Works Quin- tets to Renew Feud on Court

The first of series of games be- tween the Stanley Works and the r. X F. Corbin basketball quintets. will be played tomorrow night at the Arch St. armory. The series is bound to bring about a resumption of the court feud where has existed between the teams and followers for several seasons. It will be remembered that last season, with the Corbin team fighting for first place with the New Britain Machine company quintet for the Industrial league championship, the Stanley Works team nosed out Chief Larson and his men on the closing night of the league, thereby clinching the championship for the Machinists. There has been no league among the local factories this season. but of late the old spirit seems to have loomed up. and with the possibility of secur- ing the armory on Tuesday nights, the series was arranged with George kron representing the Corbin team and Frank J. O'Brien of the Stanley Works.
 Dick Dillon, Connecticuts best ref cree has been secured to handle the games. Herbie Sauter has been named official timer
 Mr. Kron said today that his team will be selected from the following players: Chief" Larson. Johnny Saxe, Paul, Morgan, Cossette, Carrazzo, Anderson and others. Just who the Stanley Works will use has not been decided on. The Buttmakers have some very fine players to pick from in Bill Walthers, John Grobstein, Jim Pelletier, Johnny Schroeder, Freder- ickson and others.
 The games will be preceded on each evening by preliminary, and dancing will follow.

In future no player will be allowed to compete in the national amateur championship unless recommended by the associa- ton of which he Is member
 While not wishing 10 discourage any one who has chance from entering the championship, and while particu- larly desirous of encouraging young players, the committee feels that in justice to the best players the field must be reduced.
 If the field in the open event con- tinucs as large as in the two preced- ing years it probably will be necessary to extend the time of the tournament.
