As announcements of the District amateur champilonship tourney were recelved at the member clubs of the District'of Columbia Golf Association today, listing the title chase for the Burning Tree Club on Septem- ber 10 and 11, it was recalled that the Maryland State open golf champion- ship is scheduled for one of the days on which the District amateur :will be played. ” The Maryland open, which has & vastly increased treasure chest this year with something more than $1,000- to shoot for, is carded st Congressional on September 11. On that day the District amateurs will be winding up their war over at Burning Tree, only & mile or two away. But as far as participating in both tournaments by s few of the local amateurs is con- cerned, the two clubs might be & thou- sand miles apart. ‘The major golf organizations of this territory - are on. the friendliest terms and apparenfly want to avoid confiicts, but twice during two years an avoidable clash has come between major dates for golf events.
