Plans are being perfected by the greens
committee of the Columbia Country Club
for the opening Of the ladies' golf course
in the early part Of spring. The unus-
ually severe weather Of the passing win
ter has delayed this work. The site
selected for the ladies' course. which will
be the only ladies' course in or near
Washington, Is the large space of ground
near the clubhouse and between Connec-
ticut avenue and the regular course, and
expert advice and assistance have been
employed in designing the links. the plac-
ing of the trees and greens. SO that the
ladies' course. while not as hilly and
rugged as the eighteen-hole course. will
afford many pretty holes. giving oppor-
tunity for the display OF skill without
making It difficult for the women to walk
over or tire them unnecessarily.
The large grove of oaks back Of the
clubhouse has been cleared ofIwaste and
underbrush, and tea tables and rustic
chairs will be placed therein to make
this spot an attractive one, easily ac-
