THE INDIA RUBBER WORLD

Sea View Golf Club, Absecon, New Jersey. 



Summer Outing of The Rubber Association of America. 



1916 



Gi'ODFELLOwSHip reigned supreme, business was forgotten and 

 competitors affiliated, when 300 or more members of the 

 rubber industry gathered for a day's sport and recreation 

 al the Summer outing of The Rubber Association of America, 

 Inc., that was held at Sea View Golf Club, Absecon, New Jersey, 

 Tuesday, June 

 24, 1919. 



It was 

 when the last 

 outing was held. 

 While our nation 

 was plunged in 

 warfare there 

 was neither the 

 time nor the in- 

 clination for 

 such recreation, 

 but with the ar- 

 mistice in force 

 and the treaty 

 which will insure 

 peace to be 



signed in a few days at the most, the return to the good old 

 custom seemed proper, and a goodly renaissance it was. New 

 York rubber men were out in force. So were Trenton and 

 Philadelphia. New England was well represented, and so were 

 Akron, Cleveland and the Middle West. The day was perfect, 



the sky almost cloudless, and the sail sea lireeze tempered the 

 sun's fervid heat. 



The Sea View Golf Club House is an imposing structure, ideal 

 in many respects. It has all the appurtenances of a first-class coun- 

 try club, and then some. There are golf-links, shooting-grounds, 



tennis courts and 

 ball field, also a 

 swimming pool, 

 and all these 

 were reserved 

 for the guests 

 and were well 

 utilized. 



The New York 

 contingent, rein- 

 forced with de- 

 tachments from 

 New England, 

 embarked from 

 the Pennsylvania 

 Station on a 

 special train of 

 ;e representations

 mobiles and busses conveyed the company to the club-house, 

 where luncheon was served. Then the company separated into 

 groups, each to participate in sports in which he was interested,
