The executive committee noted
with pride the fact that for the
third consecutive year there was
a gain in membership, with the
list now totaling 1913 clubs.
Among the 30 new member
groups taken in last year were
Washington's Capital Golf and
Country Club and Baltimore's
public course, Mt. Pleasant, site
OF this years national public
links championship.
RULE CAUSES SPATS
Rule changes were virtually
nil. The regulation limiting the
number of clubs to a bag to IA.
which was written in last year.
Will continue since 1t has been
received with real favor" The
yardage for women's par, as an.
nounced late last year, has been
increased to keep stride with
the general improvement in
feminine golf.
Main rules headache suffered
by the U. S. G. A. during 1888
seems to have been over the
temporary stymie regulation
which was adopted for a trial
period last year. The temporary
stymie rule provides that when
the balls are on the putting
green and the nearer ball lies
within six inches of the hole"
the ball lying nearer the hole
may be lifted at the option of
either player. Time and again
the rules committee was asked
to pass on spats developing
from the Interpretation of this
regulation.
RESPONSIBILITY SET
Sometimes a player would
knock his opponents ball away
and concede the short putt.
Whereupon the opponent would
howl that his ball was more
than six inches from the cup
and therefore a Stymie. At
other times, the opponent would
demand that he be conceded
the hole under Rule 18 which
states that If a players ball be
moved by an opponent. . the
opponents side shall lose the
hole"
In order to clarity the tenn.
porary stymie rule, which the
U. S. G.. A. decided to give
another years trial, the follow
ing footnote was added to it:
II a ball be lifted it shall be
lifted by the player or his
caddie." The penalty for break
ing this rule is loss of hole un-
less the ball is moved acci-
IDENTIFY.
Only other change in the
rules of the game is a clarifica-
t1on Of the responsibility for re-
porting scores. The new note
to stroke rule reads as fol-
lows: Each competitor is solely
responsible for the correctness
of the score reported for each
hole. At the conclusion of his
round a player must himself
take his card, signed by the
marker. check it, settle any
doubtful question with the COM
mittee and then hand it in. It
may not thereafter be altered. "
An attempt to obviate an
other source of trouble was the
of the championship committee,
Mr.. Harold w. Pierce, that after
the first qualifying round in the
1889 national amateur cham
pionship. the field would be re-
duced to the lowest 1870 scorers
and those tying for l30th
place.
