A public golf tournament will be held; In Spokane on September 2, 3 and 4, on the Downriver Park municipal course under the direction of the Spokesman-Review golf editor. In addition to being the first public tour ney in which any amateur golfer in the city is eligible -to compete, the com petition will also be the first ever echeduled for the new public golf links. For the last two weeks more than 250 golfers have been going the rounds and as a result a large entry list Is expected. The qualifying round will be played Saturday.

The tournament is open only to bonafide residents of New York. The present holder of the cup is Roger B. Taft, of the North Jersey Country Club, who defeated Paul Haber, of the Scottish American Golf Club, last year with his last putt on the home green. Clothes are a matter of considerable Importance in golf. If you wear a jacket let it be a reasonably loose fitting one with plenty of room under the arms. The woolen cardigan jack ets have much to recommend them. since they give to the movement of the arms. It is possible, however, to have too much give, in the sense that over swinging may be promoted, and for that reason lt is preferable that braces be worn instead of a belt.
