There is now come doubt us whether tho American professional golfors Melhorn and Cruikshank, who are visiting Japan and North China, will play in Hongkong. The pair asked for gate-money of $3 gold, with a guarantee of $500 gold. In view of the state of our dollar, the Committee of the loyal Hongkong Golf Club feel that these terms are prohibitive. They have offered gross receipts of a $6 Mex. gate for an eighteen hole match on the afternoon of Wednesday, January 14, and a enble has been sent to that effect.
Much depends, of course, upon whe- nether the professionals are extending thete tour to Manila and elsewhere, in which event they may consider the Hongkong offer worth accepting.
