In selecting this 10-man team, the players have been chosen and rated according to their respective show- ings in scratch play tournaments during the past year. Half of the line-up hale from the Seattle Golf club, while the Inglewood Country club, with three, and the Jefferson Park Golf club, with two, complete the list. The Rainier, Harlington and University clubs have several good players, but not quite good enough to win a call over any of the 10 named, Not only is Bon Stein the ranking golfer of this elty, but his playing thruout the season showed that the youngster’s game is improving with age; his match and medal play being the best he has ever displayed. HIS RECORD FOR SEASON Here's what young Mr. Stein of the Seattle Golf club did in the major events during the 1923 season: Won the state amateur championship, for the second successive time, at Aber- deen; won the ‘city titular honors at Inglewood. won medalist prize in the Pacific Northwest amateur field; was Ma Lona unexpected Knock’ | up the deal for Hornsby before he tary-treastirer; M, Crawford, record.
