|HE Middle Atlantic Golf As
sociation today took the first
step in reviving inter-club
Il team matches between the 28
clubs comprising that organization by
asking chairmen of golf committees to
organize teams for a series of matches
at Richmond, starting October %. The
dates come after the close OF the
Maryland State Golf Association team
contests, in which Washington clubs
have been uniformly victorious.
The Executive Committee of the
Middle Atlantic Association asked golf
chairmen to indicate what form the
teams should take, and whether the
pros also should play in the No. /
spot.

CHOULD the teams consist Of all

be six-man teams or l0-man teams.
or more? Or should they be OF IL

All these proposals have been sug-
gested.
1T also has been suggested that We
ask all the teams to gather at ths

He couldn't even get started for the
drop-shot which gave March the last
set, 6-3, and the championship.
Although johnson was forced to
use substitute racket when his origi-

carry him to within one point of q
