TEPaul,
If you bothered to try to comprehend my posts, you'd see that I explained many posts ago that the issue in 1924 was that the committee was trying to set up an endowment to more consistently fund the Green Section.
But that is purely tangential to the fact that the USGA created the GREEN SECTION (not just the green committee, but the GREEN SECTION) in November of 1920. The Bulletin was put out by the green committee but it was the "BULLETIN OF THE GREEN SECTION OF THE USGA." Clubs signed up as members of the "Green Section" not the Green Committee.
For example, through January 7, 1922 the "Green Section" had 397 dues paying member clubs and by Dec. 31, 1924 the "Green Section" had 802 dues paying member clubs (221 of which were not member clubs of the USGA.) That is quite a large number of clubs who were paying to belong to a "Green Section" which you claim did not even exist!
I don't get it, Tom. You always claim to have such a strong interest in the Green Section and the committee set up to conduct the Green Section, but you've now made it painfully obvious that you know very little about either, and have apparently not even read the Green Section bulletin which began publication in February 1921. I'm no expert on either, and frankly it is not even close to my foremost area of interest, but even I can figure out when the Green Section was created!
Why do you suppose that about ever time you bring up the agronomy letters you have gotten something completely wrong or missed something extremely important and obvious?
