L. K. Verley, winner of the 1919 title, Winnepeg, will defend his honors. Other out-of-town cracks entered are Belen Baker and Mrs. Cushing of California, two of the leading women players on the Coast, who will play for the ladies’ honors. Wak lace Scott, Todd, Flye and Lyons are coming over from Tacoma, while Milne and Mercer will be down from Vancouver, B. C.
