GOLF OFFICIALS TO
SETTLE CONFLICT IN
TOURNAMENT DATES

New York. Nov. 1S.-(P 49, Long
standing differences between Amer
lean and British golf associations
over dates for title fixtures involving
international linksmen were before
United States golf association execu-
tives today for definite settlement.
Dates for the 1927 open champion
ship in the United States have been
tentatively set for June %, "a and 20
at the Oakmont Pennsylvania club,
the same week which the British
have set for their open tournament.
Efforts have been made by Amer
lean golf officials &c several years
to have the British open played earl
Ter in the season, arguing that the
midsummer heat in the United States
makes tournament. play unbearable
while the English courses reach their
peak condition much earlier than
those in America Therefore. the
Americans point out, 1t would be the
sensible thing for Americas open TO
be held in June and the British open
earlier, allowing stars Of both nations
to compete in both tournaments.
Heretofore American golf of11clals
have thrown the American open into
midsummer in order to avoid con-
fiict with the British, but it appears
the American open will be held next
year in June regardless of what GATE
the British set for theirs.
