"The person who denies Chandler
Egan the ranking position in amateur
golf of this coast Is the person who
knows nothing of his great victory In
the Paclflo northwest championship
at Seattle Inst June when he defeated
the greatest field of amateurs ever
gotten togother on the . coust. The
person who questions tho ability of

said George.
' Watohes Clian Play
George Cllne has seen Egan win
two north coast titles, ono at Vancou
ver in 1020 and the other at Seattle in
1923. George dropped everythlng-
lncludlng Innumerable impressive und
insistent invitations to indulge, Intra
murally, In inhibited things (which
lead, to inebriation) In order to enjoy
an invlgilatlon of Egan's golf.
Then, -George, after this outburst,
was quietly told of the nine-hole
course Euan laid out and constructed
and is now waiting for the sun and
moisture to bring to full fruitage In
the snrlnfr. and he thoughtfully said
I know how Jack Neville, Hay
Chapman, Roger Lapham, Dr. Paul
Hunter and a wholo lot or California
folks feel about Egan. Hunter, fo
Instance, thinks Egan the greatest
golfer of all time, and ho goes mirth
to see Egan as much as to play him
self in the northwest tournaments.
I knew that, from Vancouver, B.
C to Medford, Ore., taking in every
golfing community along the route,
Chandler Egan Is an idol. Now
knowing what we all do about what
wonderful inspiration he has been to
golf, and how, now, he needs no
longer step off his ranch, without pre
Daratlon. into a field filled with golf
ers tuned to tho big scrap in hand, I
feel that we should do something to
show our 'hooray' In some substantial
manner."
Movement Started
Before the meeting adjourned
there wore three present, Including
Joe Klrkwood It was nil tentatively
worked 'out. It was decided quietly
to start a movement extending from
British Columbia to southern Call

opens, and there stage a two or tnre

George Cllne Is sowing the seed to
