TO HIT THE PILLS
 FOR KIDD|ES' ILLS
Golf at Shuttle Meadow Links to Rid Sick Young
 sters of Their Kinks

Golfers large and golfers small,
 men who can't play golf at all as well
 as those who hit the ball are rubbing
 out kinks. Because next Wednesday
 for all day, there's going to be some
 medal play, across the greens and in
 the hay on the Shuttle Meadow links.
 Any golfer. anywhere. is free to enter
 this affair, the proceeds go to give fiNsh air to about 300 chaps. It will cost two dollars. nothing more, which
 should bring out the men galore. to
 try and get the low gross score or
 else the handicaps. For the ladies we opine, a kickers handicap will be fine, they'll only go the upper nine and shoot the best they might. And when the fray is OCT and done, by way of judging who has won, we'll consult a number known to none that was drawn before the flight. So if you haven't already planned to put on greens and splash the sand when you weren't lucky in your "land". just put the day aside. We'll guarantee you'll luck may run and if you haven't when all is done, prize to rest beside.
 All of which above is intended to call the attention of golfers in the city to the fact that the Fresh Air tour nament day is rapidly drawing nearer. Shuttle Meadow links, it is expected. will see, next Wednesday. as many golfers as 1t may comfortably accom- modate.,. :. Ituts not thought that the course will be overcrowded but it is hoped that as many as possible will arrange to play early in the day. as a late hour will probably be the most popular.
 There will be three sets of prizes for men and one set for women. The mems prizes will be awarded on the basis of IS holes of play. the ladies' on a basis of holes Ladies will be expected to play their matches during the morning and on the upper g.

The hidden number will be chosen from 75 to s5 and players will figure their handicaps in this event to bring their net score between these two, depend ing upon chance to hit the hidden number exactly or come nearest to it. In the event of tie in the kickers', the winner will be selected by lot. Only enc prize may go to a person.
 The ladies will be requested to pick a number which. subtracted from their score, should bring their net be- tween AS and so. The hidden num- her will be chosen from between these two and the prize awarded to the player who comes nearest to the number.
