When that defeafll be wiped h"t.
Don't be surprised If another country
club is organised In Houston. The
Writer - representing a committee of
local sportsmen has been asked to
outline the organisation of what might
be called "The Poor Man's Country
elub." Plans for the new crab are in-
complete as yet but Sn Initiation fee
of US has practically been decided
opon. No dues will be charged. The
golfers will pay as fhey play. In
etber word. 'treens few will

piece of land- kre now being consid
ered.. On plot of ground of about 1U
acres 1s located along the ship channel
and should a club be built there It
would make an Meal canoe and lanncn
club as weu as a gelt course.
The Idea at present Is to feet out the
golfer and would-be golfers of tbe
clt. ' Those ' wnc Uke the idea and
would "be Willing 'to subaertbe to
membership under such a plan are
invited to droojthe write; a line.
There's no. reason why such a plan
wouldl-not work out. In the first place
It will not necessarily be compulsory
to buy ths land. Several lease propo
sltlons kre being worked out. U tbe
land can- be leased there ia no reason
why nine holes eeukV not be laid out
for a starter and Still have some of
the subscription money left. The idea
has worked well In the East and With
the municipal1 course. a a feeder any
amount of member to the local propo
sltlon could be obtained. .
The Dubb talked to a golfer yester
day who has' played over the municipal
courses in Chicago. This golfer was
invited io Olay one morning.' He snd

CENTRAL AND
HEIGHTS ARE
1SELL MATCHED
The game between Heights and
Central which Is to be played Tues-
day night will mean a great deal to
the basket ball champonshlp of The
Post City league. If Central should
defeat Height all that will be neces-
sary then I for the farmer to play
Christ Episcopal for the city cham-
pionship. Christ church is the cham-
pion of the Sunday School league.
However If Heights comes out on top
of the Central lads the color of the
situation will be changed considerably.
In this case both Heights and the
I. K. X. would be Disced In the running
for the City league championship and..
consequently for ' tne cnampnmsnip
of the entire eity. .
Central succeeded In nosing out on
the Heights quintet earlier In the sea-
son by a scant margin in the second
extra period of play the final score
being 1 to I. Taking the showing made
against Beaumont by both of these
teams Just last Friday and Saturday
evidence still shows them to be about
aa equally matched a they ever were.
Heights won over the Beaumont team
by a score of 11 to 17 while the Cen
tral tally was IS to li. Heights really
had a slightly 'easier time handling tbe
Beaumont organisation however since
ever half of the game was played with
aecond string men making up the most
of the lineup.
Central has the best record for the
entire season having lost just one
City league contest while Heights
lost two In the first half and one in
the second half. Central has succeed
ed In winning the1 City league cham
pionship for several years and the
Heights quintet Is determined that
it is going to change the tune of
things Tuesday night. Tuesday night's
game is the real championship game
of the City league. All Height and
Central supporters can be expected to
be on hand and root hard for their
respective quintets. The game will
be called at 8 p. m. sharp. The ad
mission fee will be Si cents.
