*London."
The British amateur golf team commissioned by the Royal and Ancient Club to the Antipodea dis- embarked, after their 30,000 miles tour, from the Anchor liner Cale donia at Greenock. In the course of the tour the campaigners have boon on eight steamers, and have used air, ralf, and road transport: They flew from Sydney to Brisbane.
The tourists
the Hon. Michael Scott, the captain of the teant, Jack M'Lean, the young West of Scotland player, whose golf has kept the cables busy with his glory on now courses and against now rivals; Leslie Garnett, and Dale Bourn, with Henry Gullen.. the secretary of the Royal and Ancient Club, who was manger · for the tour.

OBJECT.OF THE TOUR.
. Thì Hồn: Michael Scott said that the tour had been a great success, that the golfers they met "down under" wore real good fellows and good players, and that the hospitall- ty the team had had was beyond description. He said:
· The tour achloved its chief; purpose, and will, I am sure, have an excellent effect. We had real good and, of courne, keen matches, but they were played in the friendliest spirit. There was no Test match 'golf, and the Australians assured me that it was a good thing for their golf and golfers that the tour had been undertaken. I hope there will, one day be an ex- change of visits
The captain added that the tour had also been a first-rate thing for "our boys" too, and he paid a band- some tribute to M'Lean.
"I am very pleased indeed with Jack," he said. "He wana model as n golfer and in every other way, and he was a great favourite with everybody, as were also the other boys."
They started out as a happy fumlly, and they had come home as a happy family, and the work done for the tour by Mr. Gullen could not have beon better
