Notes.
The President golfed on the links of the
Washington Country Club in Virginia yes
terday afternoon. arriving shortly after 4
o'clock and leaving at $50 o'elck for the
return trip to the White House. His
golfng partner was DR.. Cary Grayson.
The White House automobile is always
parked to the side Of the club lawn and
the President always leaves his white
linen coat in the car.
In driving the President invariably uses
what is known in golf as the short stroke
In that he does not swing the club over
his shoulder and come around with a fast
swing which gathers momentum each
inch it travels. The swing in the short
stroke is rarely over three feet, but in
variably the President gets lots of steam
behind his. Yesterday, as usual, he did
not cover the full eighteen holes OF the
course, but took what is known the
short cut home To the clubhouse. which
ends up with about nine holes.
The route from the clubhouse to the
Chain bridge and across to the District is
always taken by the White House car. 1t
abounds in splendid country scenery.
Last night the President went to the
theater.
