There may be two big open tourrfa-
ments around washington this year
d. l.. Thomson, chairman of the Gon
and Greens Committees at Manor, has
reiterated the hope that the club may
hold an open event some time during
the year with purse OF about $2.500.
Announcement of the prospective
tourney was made six weeks ago, as
was the announcement that Manor will
stage an amateur tourney in 1888, in
compliance with its bi-yearly tourna-
ment schedule Manor also Is in line
for the sectional qualification rounds
for the amateur championship, having
been the only bidder in this section
for these trials.
AL Houghton, Kenwoo6 pro, tells us
that the National Capital open tourney
this year will be for purse Of about
$1,000 and that it will be played much
earlier than last year. The club hopes
for better weather conditions on date
in october than those which prevailed
at the tourney on November II and
13, 1882. 1t will be remembered that
the weather on those dates was cold
and windy.
