expect any considerable return be-
cause they put on a tournament
for the stars at reduced rates to
the stars. But it has gone on for
years, and If it didn't pay they'd
soon cut it out. Now the U. S. G. A.
is going to cut it out for them by
hanging the Damocles sword of
possible professionalism over the
heads of the crack feminine golfers.
Men Also in Danger.
But the U. S. G. A. is taking
on quite job. 1t can't crack
down on the women and leave the
men alone, which may mean that
amateur golf is in for the big
cleanup. Not that it has been too
dirty. for it hasn't compared in
player inducements to the openly
subsidized tours of the amateur
tennis stars, or the payment of
salaries to amateur" football
players.
But the smart boys of golf who
achieve some outstanding in the
amateur game know It's much
better, from the money-making
angle, to remain amateur. Plenty
OF so-called simon-pures have got
ten up in the surtax brackets in
business because of their skill at
golf. Among them. I could list at
least four former amateur champ
ions, and lot of near champions.
Probably more bonds and more
insurance have been sold on golf
courses by amateur golfers than
ever in walnut-paneled Offices. The
big job of the U. S. G. A. is to
prove possible professionalism. Un-
doubtedly you'll hear of some small
fry being caught from time to
time, with conviction and a SUBJ
sequent barring from amateur golf
But it isn't likely that any reaI
star will be barred. The stars are
too smart and have too many
friends.

President Grand Circuit.

NEW YORK, Jan. 18.-Light har-
ness horse racing, which enjoyed one
OF its best seasons in 1888, definitely
is headed for bigger and better
things in 1889 if for no other reason
Mthan it is to be sponsored by one
organization for the first time in
history.
The formation of the United
States Trotting Association during
the closing days of 1898 and the
early part of this year was the
greatest forward step ever taken by
the light harness sport. 1t means
much more than just the merging
of the National, United and Ameri-
can Trotting Register Associations.
Whereas in the past the parent
bodies were composed of various
track associations alone, the new
organization is one that also in
cludes owners, breeders and train
ers. all working for the improve
ment of the sport. I don't see how
the sport can fail to prosper with
one set OF conditions designed to
please the public by proper regula-
ton of the conduct of racing and
with only one registration certifi-
cate required.
Officers Wisely Chosen.
True, the American Trotting As
sociation has not approved the new
setup, but so many of its individual
units have gone on record as favor
ing the U. S. T. A. that I look for
it to come in officially within a short
time. Directors have been elected

Timed to achieve its full effect just
before the opening OF the big-time
competitive season in the South for
the feminine golfers, the United
States Golf Association today
! cracked down on woman golfers
who accept special rates and induce
ments to play in links tournaments.
threatening their amateur status if
they continue to accept these in
ducements.
Subsidized Golfers Warned.
1T has been called to the attention
OF the United States Golf Associa-
tion,' says the letter to competitors, "
that some Of the women who have
participated in the invitation tour
ments conducted by hotels, resorts,
etc. have not adhered to the defini-
ton of an amateur golfer as estab-
linked by the association This
rumor has to do with the acceptance,
directly or indirectly, of travelling
expenses hotel accommodations, be-
sides other perquisites which are said
to have been made available to few
Of the outstanding woman golfers.
1T is the duty of the committee
tamateur status and conduct to
deny amateur status to any golfer
whose conduct renders her ineligible
and it intends to perform that duty
in every case where knowledge of
the infractions come to it."
Much the same letter went to re-
sort managers, cautioning them that
the U. S. G. A. recognizes the situa-
ton and intends to stop acceptance
Of special rates, expenses and other
perquisites
If the U. S. G. A. had deliberately
tried to hand knockout wallop to
the coming Southern tournaments
for the fair sex in some other way
1t couldn't have done a better job.
Blow to Swank Resorts.
For number Of years there has
been a fixed and we'll understood
tournament circuit for the women
One Of the bigger such affairs now is
progress at Augusta. There never
has been any disposition to wink at
the fact that resort and hotel pro-
prietors make special inducements
to obtain the entries of the out
standing feminine golfers of the
land for their tournaments. It's all
been open and plain.
But II the U. S. G. A. makes
this edict stick land it cam the
poor, but honest gals who have
been making the rounds Of the
swanky resort tournaments at little
cost will take a severe sock in the
region OF the pocketbook.
It won't affect girls like Helen
Dettweiler. who Is working for the

will, be bomb-shell to the tourna-
