PLAN SERIES OF INTERNATIONAL MATCHES

The visit of Edward Ray, Harry Vardon and other English golfers to this country last year prompted talk in golfing circles of having annually a series of international golf matches similar to those of the Davis cup tennis series. Nothing official has been announced regarding the movement, but it is re-" ported that one of the leading golf clubs In this country is referring the idea to the British golf authorities and

that an offer of a cup has already been made by the American club. British golfers, both men and women, have at times during the past ten years played more or less frequently in American tournaments, and Americans have made still more frequent appearances in England, but the contests have lacked the well-defined arrangement which would be brought about by competition along the lines of the Davis cup tennis series.
