No limit, however, will bo placed on the number of professionals entering for the championships. The open championship will bo decided on September 25 and 26. Among those who have entered for the open and amateur championships are L. Quinn (Bltham), the present holder of tho amateur championship: 15. V. Wright (Timaru), the present Canterbury champion, who is entering for the dominion championship for the first time; ami A. G. Sime (Westport), who won the amateur championship on the last occasion on which it was played for at Shirley.
