REPORT from Chicago that the price of golf balls will soon be advanced on an average of 25 per cent. lacks confirmation here, A New York manufacturer to-day said he didn’t see any need for an imme- diate boost in price, as most lares companies had built up a large sur- plus during the season in which there was a decreased demand for the rubber spheres, It appears that an increased cost of golf balls would not be justified at this time unk the National Gov- ernment should place drastic curtat!- ments on raw materials used in the making of balls. For war relief purposes golf will be the best money maker of all sporte this year. Golf clubs swung for pa- triotic causes earn close to $5,000,000 for the year, Exhibition matches held throughout the West have earned slightly over $300,000, according to a report just issued by the Western Golf Association. This big sum does not include the thousands of little club tournaments that association members have held once and some times twice a week for war funds or for prizes which were War Savings Stamps. The announcement will shortly ba made that the Bayside links will be converted into a private club, Here- tofore the course has been a semi- public organization, outsiders having the privilege of playing over the links without possessing any membership qualifications, Cornelius Sullivan is speeding up the plang for the participation of golf clubs in the drive of the United War Workers during the week of Nov, 11-18. He bas written members of the United States Association re garding various forms of compet! tions for medals to be presented by John D, Rockefeller jr. Mr. Sullivan: who is a prominent member of the Garden City Club, believes that golf will turn over a substantial sum ty the sport end of the campaign if oniy~ ther will be suitable for links vities during the week of the United War Workers campaign, Newspaper golfers are still battling for the Cooper Cup at Van Cortlandt Park. A national championship has prothing on this annual competition in point of rivalry. Quite a few of the contestants have never performed on private links, but this or'y adds tc the general excitement of the af- fair, The finish will be decided some time before the snow file is quite likely that this number will be increased to twenty-one, as Managet Endres has nineteen applications on the lst. The exact number of teams that are to compete will be announced on Friday evening. Joe Stern of the Manhattan Alleys would like to arrange a home and home match with one of the stars of Berg- man Bros,’ alleys. He would also like to have Mort Lindsey get in commun! cation with him regarding his match with Koster. Bowling clubs ring to enter tho Patriotic Tournament at the White Ele- phant Alleys are requested to wet in {ouch with Joe Thum, No. 1241 Brond way.
