May Compete for FamousRobert Lesley Trophy
After This
BRITTON SELECTED-TO ESPOUSE CAUSE
Chevy Chase Official Will PresentMiddle Atlantics Case to
Association
There Is a movement on foot to in-crease the scope of the Interoily golfcompetition for the Robert Loaloy cupand unless present puns go astray Uteconditions governing this affairchanged after this year
As golfers generally know the Lesleytrophy of Sate years has been playedfor annually between teams represent-ing the Philadelphia Boston and Met-ropolitan Golf Associations while orig-inally only the Quaker City and NewYork forces arrayed against eachother
As the matter now stands the MiddleAtlantic Golf Association has becomeambitious to set in the game This or-ganization embraces Washington Baltimore and Wilmington localitieswhere the royil sport has taken astrong hold of late Alexander Brittonof the Chevy Chase Club of this citywho is also a member of the UnitedStates Golf Association executive com-mittee has started to work the project-up in the interest of the Middle AtlanticAssociation and while nothing can bedone to change present conditions forthis years intercity contest it seemshighly probable that a new arrange-ment will be brought about for 19M
Would Heighten Interest-In discussing the proposed plan Mr
Brit ton gave it as his opinion that withfour team competing the annual eventcould be made more interesting Itwould then glee three of the four teamsa chance for two full days of playit is now the champion team that isthe holder of the out thefirst day while the other two strugglefor the right to challenge the holderWith four teams competing a semifinalround could be run off on the first daywith the winners of course meeting inthe final on the next
Another angle to the intercity affairis the revival of the old suggestionmade several years ago to have all ofPennsylvania included in the Philadel-phia territoryPittsburg in Line-
A prominent Pittsburg player In dis-cussing this project at Garden Citysaid he had never heard of the PUbburg section Ming approached on thesubject hut he did not hesitate to saythat in his opinion the Flttaburg golferswould be glad to cooperate with thePhiladelphians provided the loiter sodesired It has been suggested that thetest way to Ming about such a combination would be to form a Pennsyl-vania State Golf Association
In a few days the Next Lesley cupcompetition will be in trogress at Garden City the exact dates being October2 and 3
HARVARDS SQUADS-IN FIRST SCRIMMAGE

But the best feature of the rdclr-miah from Washingtons standpoint wasthe timely of Cantlllons er sw-Uebhardt bad all his accustomedand a tall allounent of hte puwlfcheaders but the Nationals connectwith pleasing regularity
It will be interesting to note thehowl that te to come from tbCleveland papers Each and every onereligiously set up a long sad loud walwhen Cantlllon failed to play
