1917 GOLF TEAM TO BE STRONG AGGREGATION

The University will lost but two of its regular golfers by graduation this month, and one man who has played in several of the matches this spring, but is not a regular member of the University golf team, so that the Crimson should be represented by a strong team next season. Captain J. G. Heyburn '16, G. A. McCook '16, and W. P. Hunt '16 are the three men who graduate. Captain Heyburn and McCook have been playing fine golf, and while the University did not win the championship this year, the work of these two men has stood out prominently.

Five members of this year's University team will be available for the team next year for certain, and another good golfer who has been ineligible all season will probably be able to play, while the Freshman class is expected to send up some good men. Most of the men who will make up the team will be playing golf this summer, and the University will enter a strong team in the intercollegiate championship at the Oakmont Club in Pittsburgh the first week in September.

J. W. Hubbell '17, L. H. Canan '17, F. I. Amory '17, J. I. Wylde '17, and L. M. Lombard '17 are the regulars who will be out for the team next fall. The election of captain, which will take place in a few days, probably rests between Hubbell and Canan, although the other three members of the Junior class are eligible. Canan managed the team this year. H. D. Basset '18 has been unable to play all season.

Freshman Material Promising.

The playing of two members of this year's Freshman class is being watched with considerable interest, and it is believed that the two have the making of good University players. W. A. Flagg '19 won the College championship this season at Oakley, and he has been playing an excellent game all season. Neil Wainwright '19 is the other Freshman who has been showing up well.

The University team won four and lost two of its scheduled meets this spring. Cornell, Williams, Rhode Island State team and the Fall River team were all defeated, while The Country Club of Brookline and the Yale team defeated the University. Yale holds the intercollegiate championship, and with four men on the Blue team that qualified in the last open national championship tournament, the chances of Yale's winning the title again next year are bright.
