McDonald, of Sudâ€" bury, President of N. O: In the past the NOG.A. sometimes found clubs hesitant about shouldering this responsibility, but when the anâ€" nual meeting was held at the North Bay Golf and Country Club two clubs Sudbury and Iroquois Falls, advanced bids for the 1940 tourney. Representaâ€" tives of the respective clubs actually argued the question. A report that the NOGA. would conâ€" sider redistribution of territory failed "I think Chamberlain must be right," cbserved Dr. D. A. Campbell, retiring president, "things are picking up. Here we have two invitations." After considerable discussion, howâ€" ever, it was decided to stage the 1940 tournament at Sudbury and the 1941 tournament at Iroquois Falls. This arâ€" ramzement was satisfactory to everyâ€" body and the resolution was passed unâ€" animously. Sudbury contended that it was "their turn" to have the meet while Iroquois Falls delegates said their club missed their turn a few years ago G,. M. Miller, Sudbury, suggested that the two Saults be invited to attend the tournament next year as "a gesture of friendship." It was stated that the Sault golfers would not come to Sudâ€" bury and take part in the competition as NOG.A. members, but merely as a boodwill gesture. The idea found favor with the meetin2 and it will be considâ€" ered by the host club. Dr. J. O. McDonald, Sudbury, was named president of the association, and Bob Watson, Sudbury Idylwylde, was elected tournament â€" secretary. "Shorty" Green was nominated for one of these posts, but demanded that they go to Dr. McDonald and Watson. George Honer, of Kirkland Lake, is permanent secretaryâ€"treasurer of the association. Mr. Honer was not present at the tournament because of illness, and Dr. Campbell, at the annual meeting, drew attention to the fine work Mr,. Honer has done on behalf of the association. It was decided to send him a message of good wishes. Mrs. S. Saad of Montreal is visiting her sister, Mrs. Alex Salhany and Mr. Salhany.
