Golf Chairman Conde Sargent gave his report, focusing on the following golf issues.
1. Starting April 1, once a week, a free cart round will be given to a Golden Boys player, exact procedure to be discussed and approved by the Board.
2. A mixer with the Men’s Golf Association is being negotiated and will be announced when details are firm.
3. The annual Match Play Tournament will have an added feature. The first round losers will play an individual low net tournament with prizes for winners as a part of a regular Wednesday Golden Boys game.
4. In the assignment of players to the Interclub Tournaments, it was noted that every eligible player submitting a preference sheet received either his first or second choice. Again Thornblade was the No. 1 choice leader. Thirty players who didn’t play in that tournament last year put it down no 1. (only 18 got invited.)
