Col. Drain has not notified Washington Galf and Country T officially as to whether he intends to retain his connection with the loeal golf organization.

So it would seem the logical thing that it should go elsewhere than Washington or Ral timore next year. The Norfolk Coun try Club wants it as a bidder for two vears, although some doubt appears to exist as to the condition of the Nor. folk course for the tourney. Baltimore Country Club, which has not held the titular tournev for a decade. is the strongest bidder from the Marvland group of clubs. The Roland Park Club staged the women's championship last October—a tourney that has been held by some to be a forerunner of the men's event the fol- lowing vear. All three of the clubs mentioned will be strong bidders for the tourney. That the women's championship will with ing as a strong bidder for this event, seems assured, provided the associa- tion decides to hold the tourney again next vear. A women's titular event held at Baltimore in October was most successful, and was won by Mrs. E. Boyd Morrow. the Maryland State title holder. The women were most enthusiastic and want the event re- peated.
