NEW GOLF COURSE
MEASURES 3O1O YARDS
This Is for Nine Holes, Making the
Distance for a Regular Match
Over 5000 Yards.

The golf course which t. J.. McNam
ara, the Boston professional laid out
on the Retreat grounds near the former
men 5 cottage, 212 miles from the vii
lage, extends over a distance of 3010
yards for nine holes, which would give
6020 yards for a regular game of IS
holes Mr.. Mcnamara thinks that such
"a northerly course was never staked
out in December There was no snow
on the ground and the frost was not OF
sufficient depth to prevent soft pine
stakes from being driven into place to
mark putting greens and teeing
grounds. The approximate distances of
the holes as marked out by Mcnamara
are: Hole /, distance 10 yards; ,, 440
yards; 3, 220 yards; 4, 375 yards; 5,
$50 yards; 6, 800 yards; Z, 400 yards
IS, $50 yards; 9, 200 yards; total, 1910
yards.
The six hole course of the old Wan
tastiquet Golf club, which was aBan-
doncd a few years ago, was approx
mately as follows: 500 yards, $40, 24o,
420, 245, l25. This made distance of
1860 yards for six holes or 1880 for Is
holes.
