The Vanderbilt Trophy
The Vanderbilt was contested annually in New York -- as a separate championship -- until 1958 when it became part of the Spring North American Championships. Vanderbilt winners receive replicas of the trophy -- a practice initiated by Vanderbilt from the first running of the event and perpetuated by a $100,000 trust fund administered by ACBL under the terms of Vanderbilt's will. On display at ACBL Headquarters in Memphis are replicas donated by the families of Caroline Taylor, who won the Vanderbilt in 1928, and Helen Sobel Smith, a Vanderbilt winner in 1944 and 1945. Previous Winners: 1928 Ralph Richards, Gratz Scott, Edwin Wetzlar, Wilbur Whitehead
