local amateurs already have sent their
acceptances to the Baltimore Country

The Baltimore club was not repre-
sented at the annual meeting of the
Middle Atlantic Golf Association when
dates were discussed. Chairman Stead
OF the Chevy Chase golf committee has
made efforts to so reconcile the dates
of the two events that a conflict might
be avoided, but has been unable to effect
a change. Inasmuch as next week is
an open one on the tournament sched-
ule, It seems too bad that change might
not have been made by one club or the
other.
The Chevy Chase dates could not be
changed because of the date set for the
playing of the French High Commission
Cup for women, which follows the in
vitation event, and because all the men,
bers of the club have been mailed copies
of the Spring golf schedule and are

STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE

THE golf course of the Columbia
Country Club will be opened for
Summer play on May 8, when
group Of ordinary players, CARRIED
in fantastic costumes, Will lead the
Boosters Club through the desert OF
fasting and prayer Of the long Winter
into the oasis Of complete fulfilment OF
their golfing dreams.
Chairman George p. James has
chosen the initial party Of the Boosters
Club on May to signalize the formal
transfer of play from Winter rules to
Summer rules, and make the occasion
the formal opening of the course for the
seasons play. The layout has been
open all Winter, but at Columbia they
believe in saving the rough as well as
the fairways and the golfers VINO play
the course have been teeing 'em up any
where on the course except in bunkers
and water hazards. After May 5 the
course will not be the easy affair 1t has
been for several months past, for when
a ball strays into the rough after that
date it will have to be played where 1t
lies. and there won't be any more full
brassie shots from a teed ball in the
high grass, unless the player is lucky
enough to get the break that puts his
ball up on a tuft of grass.
Darcy Banagan, who is the boss Of
the Boosters, reports to the contrary
Notwithstanding, is puzzled as to what
form the tournament shall take on this
big Spring occasion at Columbia. The
Boosters Club, which is an organiza-
ton made up of men who talk at some
length about their golf game, will be
host to the complete golfing membership
of the club on May 6. And we might
add that some of the foremost golfers of
the city have found themselves eligible
for the Boosters Club through some re-
mark dropped in the locker room and
overheard by member of the Boosters
Banagan is hesitating between two

fun last year, and some sort Of trick
