He may not be able as yet to score as low as he did on that happy occasion, for he has altered his style in the winter months-very much for the better, in my opinion-and he is to be a vastly improved llable golfer in the season to which he has the opportunity of providing a very exciting start.

It is rank speculation to wonder how Cameron will fare ugsinst M'Lean, for winter form is notori- ously fickle, but M'Lean has of lute been playing very frequently at Western Gatles, and very well, tuo. Last week he had rounds of 68 and 71 in the one day, an admir able augury for the new scason. Whether he will be able to play as much golf from now on is un- certain, for on Monday he takes up a new appointment with an East of Scotland Arm of whisky
