Meehan, Jr. of several member clubs with ties to North Hills Country Club, Sandy Run Huntingdon Valley Country Club Country Club and Spring Ford Country Club. His biggest contribution to Vice-President: golf in Philadelphia may be his efforts to promote junior golf in the early Mr. J. Clark O’Donoghue years of the 20th century. Riverton Country Club Frank Meehan was a devoted advocate of junior golf; he is credited Treasurer: with lifting the prestige and conduct of the Golf Association’s junior champi- Mr. Frank E.

In his report as chairman of the Association’s committee on junior Philadelphia Cricket Club championships, he urged his colleagues to conduct the Junior Secretary: Championship under the same high standards as the Association’s premier GAP President Rich Meehan Mr. Christopher J. Terebesi events, the Amateur and Open championships. Chester Valley Golf Club Eighty-seven years later, on July 29, the atmosphere was exciting at Merchantville Country Club on General Counsel: the first day of match play. Blaise Straka, head PGA golf professional at Merchantville, announced the Mr. A. Fred Ruttenberg names of contestants on the first tee while club members, including President Roy Gustafson, applauded Woodcrest Country Club the players and watched some fine golf. I am not describing the scene at the Association’s Open or Immediate Past President: Amateur championships; I was on hand for the Association’s Junior-Junior Championship for boys Mr. Daniel B. Burton between the ages of 10 and 13. Bent Creek Country Club By the smiles all around, the Merchantville members seemed to appreciate the player introductions as much as the juniors. It seems that the goal of Frank Meehan, to conduct the junior championships at Executive Committee: Mr. J. Kenneth Croney the same high level as the championships for adults, was met and surpassed.

Gordon Brewer, Jr., himself and supporting Mr. William H. Iredale fellow club friends who came to follow the final match. Rich Steinmetz, PGA Professional from Spring Merion Golf Club Ford Country Club, outlasted a rain delay and a talented field to win the Open Championship at Bent Mr. Andy M. Karff Creek Country Club. Conrad Von Borsig, of Concord Country Club and the Association’s reigning Philmont Country Club Amateur champion, finished as the low amateur. Mr. John M. LeBoeuf Our last major of the year produced a new champion with a familiar name. James Kania, Jr., Philadelphia Country Club matched his father’s record by winning the Patterson Cup at historic Llanerch Country Club to become Mr. Chip Lutz the first father and son to complete the feat. The win for James also produced his first Silver Cross LedgeRock Golf Club honor, also matching his father’s achievement. James, Conrad and many other fine graduates of the Mr. Robin S. McCool Saucon Valley Country Club Association’s junior tournaments are competing well and with fine sportsmanship. The Association continues to promote the game and keep members informed through our magazine, Mr. J. Stacey Redican Sandy Run Country Club Web site and electronic handicap revisions with Association news. Spreading the positive message of golf Mr. Terrence J. Sawyer has been harder as many newspapers have been forced to reduce the coverage of golf and several com- Commonwealth National Golf Club mercial regional golf magazines have stopped publishing.

MyPhillyGolf.com provides another medium to Whitford Country Club spread news about Association tournaments, highlight member club activities and to promote club mem- bership in the Golf Association. Ex-Officio Mr. Jack C. Endicott Part of the Golf Association’s mission is to promote golf; I’m happy to share some good news in this Manufacturers Golf & Country Club area. Many of our Member Clubs are focused on junior golf as a way to promote the club. Lookaway Golf Club encourages members to invite grandchildren into the junior golf program, Laurel Creek Country Club is running a junior camp open to all area juniors and Merchantville Country Club started a caddie program. Caddie programs are a good way to introduce boys and girls to the game. Some of them may eventually want to join a club. Passing the game to the next generation will bring back the joy that golf has given us. Member club leaders have shared their strategic efforts for the future with me. The blueprint for the future is not the same old, same old. Clubs are evaluating their strengths and rethinking how to deliver their services in order to attract new members. Executive Offices: Many are starting with a blank sheet for budgeting purposes and only including costs that are 1974 Sproul Road, Suite 400, Broomall, PA 19008 necessary to deliver high quality services in an efficient manner. I am encouraged to hear that junior golf initiatives are high on the list of services to be funded by the Association’s Member Clubs. Please Mailing address: P.O.

  • Introducion to Duplicate
    INTRODUCTION to DUPLICATE INTRODUCTION TO DUPLICATE BRIDGE This book is not about how to bid, declare or defend a hand of bridge. It assumes you know how to do that or are learning how to do those things elsewhere. It is your guide to playing Duplicate Bridge, which is how organized, competitive bridge is played all over the World. It explains all the Laws of Duplicate and the process of entering into Club games or Tournaments, the Convention Card, the protocols and rules of player conduct; the paraphernalia and terminology of duplicate. In short, it’s about the context in which duplicate bridge is played. To become an accomplished duplicate player, you will need to know everything in this book. But you can start playing duplicate immediately after you read Chapter I and skim through the other Chapters. © ACBL Unit 533, Palm Springs, Ca © ACBL Unit 533, 2018 Pg 1 INTRODUCTION to DUPLICATE This book belongs to Phone Email I joined the ACBL on ____/____ /____ by going to www.ACBL.com and signing up. My ACBL number is __________________ © ACBL Unit 533, 2018 Pg 2 INTRODUCTION to DUPLICATE Not a word of this book is about how to bid, play or defend a bridge hand. It assumes you have some bridge skills and an interest in enlarging your bridge experience by joining the world of organized bridge competition. It’s called Duplicate Bridge. It’s the difference between a casual Saturday morning round of golf or set of tennis and playing in your Club or State championships. As in golf or tennis, your skills will be tested in competition with others more or less skilled than you; this book is about the settings in which duplicate happens.
