New York Golfers Enthuse 



Till- lirst imetiiis: "f the "Knot (;oll..rs. ' 

 an association of golf enthusiasts from th.- 

 ranks of the local lumber trade, was held 

 May IS at the Oakland Club. Flushing. Th. 

 boys were given the privileges of the cliil. 

 and the links through the courtesy of I'ct... 

 11. Jfoore, the local hardwood retailer. whi> 

 Is gaining a place in the front ranks of golf 

 crs hereabouts. Twenty-four lumbermen 

 packcKl their bags for the trip to Klushing 

 and twenty-four said they would come again, 

 which sounds like faint praise, but is really 

 deep appreciation for the RtK time arranged 

 for them. Mr. Monroe left nothing undone 

 that would go to make the visit a pleasant 

 one. 



The tourney was run off in two sections, 

 forenoon and afternoon and the close of the 

 day found some of the entrants pretty tired 

 though able to make the nineteenth hole un- 

 aided. The Oakland course is one of the 

 sportiest in the district and is laid out over 

 a stretch of ground both flat and roiling, 

 affording fine opportunity for the display ot 

 skill. Those playing included : Henry Cape, .\. K. Lane, A. C. Crombie, 

 A. li. L'arr. Guy Robinson, 1". II. Moore. T. X. Xixon, U. J. Perrlne, Sam E. 

 Barr, R. Bickford, L. V. Rider, G. K. Uerdling, G. P. Uedden, T. M. Sizcr. 

 C. G. Meeks, J. Crowcli, J. II. Gress, G. Ross, H. McDewell, A. C. Pud- 

 dington, W. S. Van Clief, K. X. Schaffer, II. V. Meeks and J. S. Car- 

 valho. rienrv Cape turned in the best gross score with 95 in the morning 

 ana 92 In the afternoon, li. McDewell had the best net with SI for both 

 morning and afternoon. The next round will be played about the middle 

 of June probably at Scarsdal. ,
