awards, dinner, etc, we're arranged.
THE two clubs have been busy
l. for some time gathering to-
gether their team rosters, the Co.
lumbians a bit sooner than the 1.
A. c. boys, and the result is that
the boys on the Circle gained some
early promise of the star linksmen
who belong to both clubs to play on
the Columbia team.
The trophy, when offered by Mr..
Marott several years ago, was with
the agreement that it was to be a
craftsmanship affair to stimulate
better comradeship between the
members of the two clubs.
