Hold Organization

Dues Of Group Expected
To Help Send D. c. Men
To National Meets
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

With total of more than 200
present members and a prospective
membership running into several
hundred more, public parks golf
association for Washington will be
formed tonight at a meeting at East
Potomac Park.
The association will have as its
nucleus three golf clubs already
formed at the three big public parks
courses. The Rock Creek Park club
has 95 members, East Potomac Park
has IS members and Anacostia Park
has 43. All members pay annual
dues.
Doerer Backing Plan.
The sparkplug behind formation
of the new association is Tommy
Doerer, the diminutive golf manager
at East Potomac Park, who has in
jected more life into public links
competition than it has had in years.
Tommy has been in correspondence
with the United States Golf Associ-
alton and with a public links organ
ization in Philadelphia. He plans to
pattern the projected public parks
group here after the organization in
Philadelphia.
1--WE are going to arrange series
Of team matches to determine the
public links title in 1910. Further,
we are planning to organize our golf
here on the public courses SO we
will have a responsible organization
behind our men. We hope to make
it so alright that our golfers will
have the responsibility of players
from private clubs. We don't guar
antee their bills, but we will make 1t
unpleasant for those who do not pay
their obligations"
Annual Dues to Be S6.
Under the serup proposed by
Doerer, each member of the new
public parks organization will pay
annual dues of Sc per year. This, he
hopes. will form a treasury suf-
ficiently large enough to promote
golf affairs through the year and
ultimately he hopes to raise enough
money to send public links golfers
from Washington to the national
championship. This has been done
heretofore by Concessionnaire Leof-
fer.
I'VE aren't fooling with this thing
says Tommy. I'VE are going to make
it the real thing or forget entirely
any organization of public links
golfers. They say it can't be done
But I think it can be done, and we
won't spare any effort or time to
do it,"

strongest in the country. Either

has one major victory behind it,

just how good the Vols are as they
head for this test, but the only
safe way to figure is that they are
very good indeed. They always are.
Come Provides Duel Of Two
Of South's Best Books.
This game will provide a setting
for duel between two of the top
backs of the South-Nelson of Ala
bama and Cafego of Tennessee.
Here are two all-around performers
who move into action behind big,
smashing lines.
The rivalry between the coaches
runs deep. Frank Thomas at Ala

Impoct Of Bono and Vols
Resounds Through Dixie.

Here - between Neyland and
Thomas-it flares at its highest. It
gives added incentive, so far as the
coaches are concerned and, through
them to their players, to a naturally
keen rivalry between Alabama and
Tennessee. Neyland, who has been
rather effective against Notre Dame
coaches, has found in Thomas the
most robust of his opponents who
played and studied under Rockne.
Neyland and Thomas have been
two Of the main contributors to the
development of football in the
South, which once had only scat
tered representatives in the first
class and now is one of the stronger
sections. They get good material
at Alabama and Tennessee. 1t is big
and fast and plentiful. And they
know how to mold it and fire it.
And when these two forces crash
head on, as they will at Knoxville
next Saturday, the impact shakes
the South.
