Together, the great stars of yester-years won 21 national amateur championships and some of their records likely never will be ap proached. Charter members of the Hall of Fame are: Beatrix Hoyt of New York, Margaret Curtis of Boston; Alexa Stirling, a native of Atlanta, Ga., the late Dorothy Campbell Hurd of Scotland who came to Pitts burgh from Scotland, Glenna Col lett Vare of Philadelphia, and Vir ginia Van Wie of Chicago. Original plans: called for the naming of two active golfers. However, the committee decided that retired links stars should be honored first Two additional golfers will be named annually. Beatrix Hoyt was the first win ner of the National Amateur championship held at match play in 1896. She repeated in 1897 and 1898. - Miss Margaret Curtis won three national amateurs in 1907, 1911 and 1912. ' Alexa Stirling won the amateur three times in succession and was runner; up her fourth try. Her victories came In 1916, 1919 and 1920. No amateurs were held during the first World War. Dorothy Campbell Hurd won in 1909, 1910 and 1924. Glenna Collett Vare probably has the great record of them all. She won the amateur six times between the early 1920's and mid 193 0's. r Virginia jVan Wie won in 1932, 19S3 and 1934. bner ramming a throo-run homer in the ninth. HOUSTON. Tex..
