Kirk-Windeyer Cup The Golf Council has circulated the following extract from a letter from 31oan Morpeth to Mr. G. O. Sutton, secretary of the New Zealand Golf Association: “I am back in the collar again after thoroughly enjoying myself m Wellington, though of course I have regrets in letting the team down as No. L However, it must be realised that the day for a hiding lies in wait for us all, and I am sure I am the first to lift ny hat to the golf, that Lee Brown produced. Some might think that I took the match cheaply, but I have the satisfaction of knowing that suclr was not the case.” ‘ Professional Available The New Zealand Golf Association advises: **E. S. Douglas, open champion of New Zealand in 1913, 1914, 1919 and 1921, writes to the secretary of the New Zealand Golf Association that u« would like to return to New Zealand if there is any opening. He is at present, and has been for some time, professional at the Robin Hood Golf Club, Birmingham, England, and states that whilst he is doing well there he thinks it would be better to come to New Zealand, as England is too severe in the winter, and he also feels that his family would be better in New Zealand as they grow older. If any clubs in New Zealand are interested, they should communicate with the secretary of the New Zealand Golf Association.**
