Clarke Cup \ The. senior sectional and intersectional handicap match play for the Clarke Cup is now finalised. The 1944 holder, J. Gonnellf is a golfer of no mean respect and. formerlyplayed on 3. He has been on the side line now for several years and has signalised his return to the game by annexing the first matfor club trophy. To reach this goal he has defeated some of the club's best players and champions all. His inclusion as a club member will add zest to the competitions and soma very keen rivalry between these top notchers is to- be anticipated in future club fixtures. Reynolds Cup Form points to Sloane as a. sure winner of this trophy. In defeating Campbell, last weekend with the high margin of 5 and 4. he would " thoroughly be deserving of the honour. Campbell is the 1943 holder of the. cup and by being ousted, a newname would now be engraved on it. Campbell is a doughty match play- , er, but an untimely visit to the . : thermal regions proved disastrous ■ not only to his health but also to ' his golf. However, he is always prominent in all club events and this - defeat would only tend to whet his - appetite for future events and tusi sles. Sloane has been leading a quiet life, on the course brightened by the fine effort of "baffying" his tee shot
into the 16th up. With a largepool at stake, he with the rest o§ the ciub are all trying to can the tee shot at our short holes. Without counting one's chickens before* they're "hatched it can be saiid —form points his way for the 1944 holder of the Reynolds Cup.
