Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - July 26, 1949, Winnipeg, Manitoba Page Winnipeg free press. Tuesday. July 26. 1s49 four Manitoban stay in Golf test Otto Heaslip s Golf tournament at Clear Lake this year proved to be another successful affair they had no difficulty in getting the 128 entries and Many would be competitors had to be turned away however having covered the event for the past five years it does seen to us that the com petition is lacking the color it had a few years ago there definitely was not enough name golfers on hand this year. As a Mailer of fact you could count Ihm on the fingers of one hand. Thus one was almost Able to pick the Winner before the affair Ever yol underway perhaps or. Heaslip and the Wasagaming Golf club officers want it this Way perhaps they feel the tournament will Servo a much bettor purpose if in eaters mostly to or. Average golfer and the Duffer personally we Don t think so we Are of the opinion the More name golfers appear ing in the tournament the greater publicity value the Lourna ment has to the National Park As a whole and for the province of Manitoba 100. For that Mailer. Ii is our belief that a serious attempt should homa Elf to a i Trad no Only the i of i Amateur golfers in Manitoba to Clear Lake each year but also those in United states particularly North Dakota and Minnesota. There is one Way the appearance of Fellows like Allan Boes Mike and Bill Widlaski and Wally keep. Etc. Can be reasonably assured. The tournament must be held Al a time when it does not conflict with the Manitoba Amateur or the Willingdon cup matches generally some time in August would be suitable an August Date would probably make the merchants of Wasagaming much happier too because they Are Busy enough As it is during july without having to worry about catering to the needs of golfers in August tourist and Holiday business is not quite so brisk. There is not a doubt in our mind that the Clear Lake tournament could be made into one of the most attractive in Canada if fully promoted the course itself has everything it Good golfer could wish for talking about Clear Lake we heard while there that the lady golfers in the Rural areas of Manitoba Are not very Happy Over the Way the Manitoba Branch of the Canadian ladies Golf Union selects its team to play in Dominion Competition they say that under the present system they have Little Chance of plating player on the team to under the system used in the past the Manitoba ladies team has been chosen on a Point system that is competitors were Given so Many Points for their showing in various tournaments staged during the year All these tournaments of course Are held in Winnipeg which meant that if a golfer from Brandon or Dauphin hoped to make the team she had to come to Winnipeg and compete in tournaments Here Riverside Golf and country club Saint John. .
