GOLFERS TO PLAY
AGAIN TOMORROW
Sweepstakes Tournament to Be
Staged at Shuttle Meadow

A sweepstakes tournament with
full handicap and two classes, A and
b. will be run off at the Shuttle
Meadow Golf club tomorrow. AL
though the beaches have started to
take their toll Of golfers, the entry
list tomorrow is expected to be fairly
large. The ranks of the faithful have
started to thin down but the tourna-
ment committee hopes to see many
of them out tomorrow.
Ted Hart led the field for the first
week in the twilight medal cham
pionship tournament with a net of
81. This was four strokes better
than his nearest rival. But this is
only the first week of the tourna-
ment which has three more to go.
The other players are hot on Harris
trail and he will have to keep up his
good work If he wants to come
through a winner.
Although the entry list in the
weekly twilight play Is by no means
large the interest among those who
are entered Is at high pitch. Every
evening at the club the "Iffers" have
a serious session and if the bunk
ers weren't here and II that putt
wasn't missed. Hart would certainly
not be leading today.
1t is thought that the members
of the club didn't fully understand
the rules of this tournament theerby
cutting down the entry total but the
next tournament of its kind will have
more specific instructions. There are
certainly many out during the early
evening to make the tournament a
big one.
P. F. King came through last
Saturday to win the match play
against par tournament. He took the
"old man of the links by the horns
and threw him for loss Of seven
strokes. This is the second tourna-
men in succession that P. F. has
won and he handed poor old Par" a
neat lacing.
Not to be outdone. Percy Platt
who was also in the running and,
tied with Noah Lucas. he trimmed
the "old gent" five up, winning Sec
ond place for the second time in
succession. Earl Higbee came next
with two up and Tom Under nosed
through with l up. The rest of the
pill chasers, however. took severe
drubbing, the "old cripple" known as
Par coming back strongly to have
his innings
The results turned In by King,
Plat and Lucas has proved to be
just meat for the handicap commit
tee. These scores with others which
! have been scored in the twilight
tournament have started the butch
er's cleaver swinging and several
strokes have already been looped
off a number of scores.
Around the club this week, in
stead of Let Me Call You Sweet
heart" being agonized by the old
quartet, the refrain that has became
popular is 20 Didn't He Ramble, He
Rambled Til the Butcher Cut Him
Down" Golfers who ramble over
the course consistently with better
scores will ramble more carefully
/ in the near future.
However, when all is said and
! done, the past week has been the
most prosperous one the handicap
committee has experienced in some
time and if necessary spoilers"
will be placed around the course to
, check up on strokes as an aid to en-
forcing the law,
