CLUBS PREPARE FOR SUMMER
Happy Hollow Will Spend More Than
Five Thousand Dollars.
GOLF COURSE IN GOOD SHAPE
Doubling Size of Tees at Field Club
Trees TO Replace Long Grass Haz-
ards, Cheaper Than Lost
Balls.

Improvements costing more than 5000
will be made at Happy Hollow Country
club this spring An addition will be built
on the south side of the club house, to
enlarge the kitchen. serving and dining
room space, and underneath this addition
and under the old club house will be built
a modern locker room with space for 200
new lockers, making a total of 800 lockers
at the club.
The improvements were voted at a meet
ing of the directors of the club held last
week, and work will begin at once. The
enlarged space will solve several perplexing
problems for the Happy Hollow people.
The addition to be built extends thirty
five feet to the south and the width of the
building, so there will also be space in the
cellar" room for more shower baths and
for room for the golfers and other sports
men to eat their lunches and suppers in
negligee. An additional space on the main
floor is to be arranged for a soft drink
bar.
Golfers have been out on the course of
the Happy Hollow for some weeks. They
declare that the course is In better condi-
ton this spring than ever betore. The club
has 400 members this year, ana plans for a
have base ball team in acton every
Saturday afternoon
At the Omaha Field club worlraen have
been busy building new bunkers ali over
the course, and in doubling the size of the
tees. In this way the old tee may be used
one year and the new one the next SO
that new tee will be ready for the men,
bers each season. The golf committee has
planted 100 new trees on the course, and
trees will be used more as hazards, rather
than the long grass hazards which have
been used heretofore. The committee has
decided that the cost of the golf balls lost
each year in the long grass will soon pay
for the trees.
Following are the committees on golf
and sports and pastimes appointed for 1911
at the Field clubs

Many want Matches.
There has been great wailing from Jim
Barry and others because the Oklahoma
fighters managers will not give them
matches with him. Why do they want TO
fight Morris? There are a multitude of
budding white hopes in this city, but Barry.
Flynn and the rest show no vivid desire
to blight the young career of these nov
ices. In fact II matches we're proposed the
older fighters would probably roar go
and get a reputation" what would Norris
get out OF fighting these men, even II
he defeated them2
II may he that Carl is a false alarm but
at least his manager is trying TO bring out
everything there is in him and refusing to
push him faster than he thinks he can 20.
Tom ORourke. a skilful handler OF a
fighter himself. has said that in his opinion
Morris Is being seasoned. O'Rourke has a
white hope himself in AL Palzer and has
almost completed arrangements to have
him meet Morris in the new arena, which
is being built at Tulsa. Carts home town.
Palzer is almost as big as the Oklahoma
giant, and while he stu has much to
learn concerning the boxing game, he has
courage, willingness and a terrific punch.

Corcoran big offer for his picture rights,
posted a forfeit and negotiations are now
pending.
For the people of Oklahoma Corcoran has
nothing but the highest praise. He says
there are no fairer, cleaner or better sports
men in the world; that they are game and
loyal to the core. and while sticking like
glue to their own favorite white hope"
they make visiting fighters and their mana

MILLION DOLLARS
FOR NEW INDUSTRIES

Spokane, Wash.-Frank r. Cul-
bertson, chairman of the general in
dustrial committee of the Spokane
chamber of commerce, announced to-
day that the organization of a million
dollar corporation to encourage new
industries will be considered at the
next meeting and then submitte3 for
approval to the parent body. The plan
is to assist manufacturing concerns
in securings sites and in some in
stances investing in first mortgage
bonds issued against their plants. The
stock in the corporation is to be sold
TO business men and property owners
in Spokane exclusively and will not be
listed. J. :. Gillespie, auditor of the
chamber of commerce, who worked
out the plan, thinks it is the safest
and most practicable of the many that
have been submitted to commercial
organizations in the last few years
saying that the proposition will APP
peal much more strongly to a busi'
ness man than a straight donation
Mr.. Culbertson and other members oi
the committee share these views ant
are prepared to back the plan t
the limit as soon as it is put into op
Grafton.

One of LIES Little Tragedies.

They wanted to get married and
they were not very particular just how
or where or by whom, as long as the
hymeneal knot was tied good and
strong. SO they wandered into the
county court room where Judge Ma
ioney was busy working out solutions
OF road problems. Failing to produce
the necessary license, the Judge di-
rected them to the office of the coun-
ty clerk. To Deputy Clerk Brown
they gave their names as Fred ]. Nc
Nelll and Eva Carr and the mother
OF the girl made affidavit that her
daughter is resident of Umatilla
county. The paper was made out
and duly signed but before deliver
ing it, Mr.. Brown surprised the girl
by demanding her residence. North
Yakima" she stammered in her en-
barassment. What" said the dep
uty sharply, didn't your mother lust
swear that you live in this county ?"
We'll, l don't" she came back, 1--WE
all live in North Yakima" Where
upon, the deputy cast restful glance
at the mother as he slowly tore the
license into strips and threw the
pieces into the vast basket. The trio
turned sadly from the room and left
the courthouse much to the chargrin
of Judge Maloney who had been
memorizing his marriage ceremony
and to Commissioner Walker who had
been counting the number of cigars
the fee would buy. Alas for blasted
hopes and wasted timel
