ff ff' ...J if il i Ki E Cfhe Golf Team f' PARKER, SCOTT, LINK, FREW, THOMPSON, MURRAY V HE college was fortunate in having a golf coach, and team, but most unfortunate in being unable to schedule matches for the fall and spring seasons. Lack of funds prevented any extensive trips and the colleges close at hand do not support golf as an intercollegiate activity. Early last fall Ted Craig, the coach, picked a team of four men from the golfers of the school and ranked them in. Craig determined to try out a new method of selecting a team in order to give all the golfers in school a chance to make the team by working ups to four places by challenge matches. Four men were picked as the team and two were chosen as alternates. Any other person might challenge one of the alter' nates and by winning become an alternate and eligible to challenge the fourth man on the team. The men chosen and their positions were as follows: No. 1, Griffith H. Parker, No. 2 George Scott, No. 3 Sam BL Link, No. 4 Robert Thomson. The alternates were J. Stewart Miirray, and George E. Wilson. Parker was given the leadingiposition because of his record the precedingfall when he held the same position on the team. Scott was ranked second because of his showing the previous year in the matches with Missouri University. Sam B. Link played on the squad but didnft' get into the matches by an un' lucky draw. So close was the competition in the fall of 1924 two of the positions were decided by drawing. Thomson was given the fourth, position upon his great improvement during the summer. From being one of a squad of ten he rose to the position of one of the four best golfers in school. The alternates were chosen because of their showing inthe fall allfschool tournaf ment. Murray gained recognition by going to the semifiinals in the championship flight while Wilson advanced to the second round where Thomson put him out. Harry B. Frew deserves mention here even though his name did' not appear in the list of six. Foot' ball alone kept him from being named as either number 1 or 2. hQHf5isnblaa i if .Q . ii as s T927 Page 116 X X-,ff 4Zi l'Sx
