Double Programme: Men Playing At Sheungshiu: Women At Kowloon

BEN HOGAN LEADS RACE FOR HARRY VARDON TROPHY

BOSTON, Nov. 19 (Router), -The battle for the Harry Vardon Trophy, awarded an- nually to the professional golfer who accumulated the most points in the regularly- sponsored P.G.A. tournaments, will probably continue until the last event of the year, the Club-will take place this Sunday. It takes the Miami $10,000 Open on Decem. form of a "double” for the men will be playing at ber 12 to 15, according to figures released by the P.G.A. Sheungshiu and the womon at Kowloon.

tournament bureau.

THE FIRST of what is hoped will be-annual or bi-annual fixtures-golf matches between the Country Club, Sheungshiu, and the Kowloon Golf

Kowloon have raised a pretty formidable side, and on handicap figures should have better of their hosts, but offactting this is the fact that Country Club players are at home and are far more familiar with the sand greens there.

It is because of this that the Country Club is looking forward keenly to the match, and, despite their opponents' strength, not without a little confidence. What with the sand greens, and the strangenoss of the course, I should estimate that the .Kow- 1oon players will find it difficult to play to within four above their handicaps. Their highest men are 10.

The course is rather hard and fiery, at the moment, though the re- cent rain has done something towards softening it. Water, too, has made the sand greens softer and playable again.

"The men's match commences with the singles in the morning and the fourballs after lunch. The women, at Kowloon, are also ten-a-side and are playing in the afternoon only, the rific ranges being in use during the morning.

Barnett, it will be recalled, was the centre of a controversy in 1937, when he experimented in Australian State matches with a webbed, glove, the fingers of which were joined to gother with webbing.

The loves were promptly banned by the New South Wales Association, but Barnett took a pair to England with him for the tour, and the M.C.C. was called upon to give a ruling. They decided that no rule was broken by the new glove, as it did not give the wicket-keeper any advantage.
