Citian
Elected Head
Central Golfers
Especially
J. H. Williams, New President of
Central Golfers
Association
BY Jimmy Lee

The Twin Cities Golf Club was
represented in the Central States
tournament which was held in
Des Moines last Sunday. Those
making the trip were Charles
Noble, Tommy Donaldson, Johnny
Williams, James Murray, and
Mickey Mcclure. The Woodside
Course over which play was held
proved very tough to most Of the
players, the course being well
trapped by trees. Mr.. James Muir
ray won runner-up prize for the
second flight, this being the only
prize the Twin City boys were able
to cop. Mr.. Murray's score read
1892. A new Champion was also
crowned in the person of Richard
Young who halls from good old
st. Louis. Young's score for the
morning 10, for the afternoon 85, a
very good score on a course as
tricky as this Woodside. The de-
throned champion, Sam Shepard,
finished fourteen strokes from the
winner.
The honor of winning the cham
pionship may have gone to an
other city but the real honor of the
day fell to the Twin Cities when
the association elected none other
than our popular Johnny Williams
as it's president for the coming
season. Mr.. Williams is well
known by all golfers throughout
the Twin Cities, this being his
fifth year in the game; he loves
the game and loves to play it. Last
year he was winner of the second
fight, but lost his title last Sun
day only because of his hard luck
playing. Mr.. Williams, am sure,
will make the association a very
good president and thereby boost
the standing of the Twin City
Club.
The Association also bestowed
more honor upon US by awarding
next years tournament to the
Twin City Club. The tournament
will be held the second Saturday
in August over a course not yet
selected, but am certain our good
president will select Keller-this
being his pet course-who threw
that stone?
Fate struck a bad blow on the
clubs most consistent scorer, little
Hezzy Allen. He was all set to go
down to Des Moines when sudden
ly he was attacked by appendicitis.
His doctor forbade him to make
the trip. Tough luck, Hezzy, but
I know you will get them next
year with the tournament right
here in your back yard.
All scores aren't shot in tourna-
ments. I saw two good score cards
last week, and they were shot by
ladies too-Mrs. Dwight Reed, "a;
Mrs. George Mundell, 81. Well,
last week I asked these particular
ladies for their score cards so
there you are. Now if any of you
par-breaking men doubt my word
well, I have the black and white
to show you.
There are about 70 golf players
in the Twin Cities Club, and about
80 of these play often. Now where
are the others? Next Sunday the
boys are playing at Keller-come
out and get acquainted. Let's
make this club the largest club in
the Central States.

A possibility of success for the
long-dreamed of Lake Erie-to-Ohio
Canal within the next year was
seen today by members OF Con-
gress advocating the waterway.
The Rivers and HarborS Board
Of Army Engineers, members of
Congress were advised, hopes to
make a report to Congress within
the next few months on feasibility
of the Beaver and Mahoning
River route.
A report on the survey of a
route from Struthers in the steel
and coal district to Lake Erie is
said to be in the hands of the
district engineer. 1t will be re-
viewed by the Rivers and Harbors
Board, possibly with public hear
ingS.
If a favorable report is made
before the next session of Con-
gresS adjourns, Ohio members Of
Congress plan a vigorous effort
to obtain appropriations.
A law, enacted in 1880, which
provides for expenditure of $751;
100000 on the Beaver and Ma
honing River route as far as
Struthers, becomes effective if the
Army engineers report favorably
upon the project as a whole.
Backers of the Lake Erie-toO Ohio
