incidentally, Neal Orders report
showed a treasury balance of S234.76.
It listed a donation of 500 to the
local public links association last
year to help send the local team 20

other contributions that had been
made as we'll as prizes bought.

had been arranged for the fifty

take place at Highland on Monday.

u. and Meridian Hills on WedneS-
day. June IS. with eighteen holes
of play at each course.

Cliff stated that since the event
was held at Avalon (now Hillcrest)
last year and improvements were
under way at indianapolis Country
Club and Broadmoor courses, they
should be eliminated.
Some n then suggested that
since the tournament was to be held
at Meridian Hills on Wednesday. a
day when members not interested
in the tournament would likely want
TO play, that the secretaries at the
indianapolis Country Club. Broad
moor. Highland and HillcreSt each
should write a letter to Meridian
Hills members asking them to play
on one of these courses on that day
without green's fee.
II ETTERS are TO be sent TO all
L. clubs in the providence Of this
district. which cover a radius of
sixty miles from Indianapolis, stat
ing that unless their $40 member
ship fee is in the hands of Wagner
on or before June 9 their members
viii not be allowed TO compete.
The directors urged Cliff to be-
come just a wee bit more of a czar
in handling the tournament and
dealing with efforts to chisel. Cliff
agreed If that was the wish, that is
precisely what he will do.
At any rate an effort is going to
be made to have the net score prize
winners walk of with prizes they
have won with net scores near par.
