87 IN DUB GOLF
At a apoetal meeting today of the
grievance committee of the Dub and
Duffera golf tournament now In prog.
reaa at the Medford Oolf club, a rule
waa paased with an ex post facto
clause attached, providing that any
entrant In this tourney breaking ft9
in competitive play should automat
ically be disqualified and fined IS,
hla opponent being declared a win
ner and the proceeds going the the
Dub and Duffers' tournament sink
ing fund.
Thla ruling disqualifies R. W. Ruhl,
champion dub In 1032 and .833, who
turned suddenly hot yesterday and
defeated Ralph Woodford, the super
par pill shooter, by breezing around
the course with an 87, to his oppon
ent's 98. Aa thla la supposedly a dub
tournament, the committee felt thr.t
any chiaeler who can break 80 should
be forced to default and enter some
tournament In hla class, like the P.
a. A. or the British Open.
Under this ruling. Ralph Woodford
will continue In the tournament, and
probably meet Jack Porter In the
aecond round, to be played thla week.
To mollify Ruhl, who promptly
protested thla ruling through the well
known local golfing attorney, Rawles
Moore (who not only lost hla match
to Orln Schenok yesterday, but lost
a new ten-cent golf ball), the com
mittee voted to donate the ex-champ
dub's' fine to the purchase of a new
golf cup, to be known as the "cham
pion Dub" golf trophy, which will be
awarded to the winner each year, and
become the personal property of the
dub winning It 30 conMCUtlve times,
The old tin cup trophy donated by
the Modern, Plumbing and Sheet
Metal company, will go to the winner
of the duffera' tournament where
every entrant shooting lesa than 100
la fined $3 and costs.
The grievance committee believes
that by taking thla firm and states
manlike stand, not only will the al
ready great Interest In dub and duffnr
golf be Increased, but the finances
of the local club will show a marked
Improvement at once,
Before the present tournament Is
over, It Ja expected that Charby
Strang. Frank Reum and Jack
Thompson will follow Ruhl'a example,
for in private practice they are all
breaking 00. find hereafter their score
oarda will be audited not only by
their opponents but by Orln Schenck,
