GOLF FOR PUBLIC
Commissioner Porter May Build
Links at Gage Park.
Willing to Do Work If Sport
Would Be Popular.

Public golf links will be built at
Gage park If Commissioner w. l..
Porter can be convinced that such
would be popular. Commissioner
Porter gave out this information this
morning after a conference with Bob
PEBBLES, the professional golf IN
structor Of the Topeka Country club.
1t has been suggested that SIX
hole course be made at this time,
with the prospect of making an ex-
tension to nine holes or even full
course Of eighteen holes in the future.
Commissioner Porter is favorable to
the venture and is now seeking infor-
nation which will enable him to esti-
mate the popularity of the affair.
The members Of the Country club,
scores of Office clerks and retail
clerks of the city have expressed a
desire for public golf links that they
might adopt the popular pastime as a
system of recuperation needed
through their indoor duties. while at
work.
Bob PEBBLES is interested in the
public golf links as a method of in
creasing interest in the pastime. Be-
fore visiting Commissioner Porter, he
secured information from a number
of cities where public links are MAIN
tanned, and offered them as evidence
OF the popularity OF the proposition
in the respective cities.
Mr.. PEBBLES has visited Gage park
and pronounces it as an ideal location
for golf links. He suggested a six
hole course and advised Commissioner
Porter to begin work at building the
tees, green's and other appurtenances
necessary for the course, that the
course be in condition to permit play
ing in early spring.
The cost is estimated to be from
5000 to $3.50. This will include build
ing the green's and ,es, building an
extension to the dressing room for a
locker room at the bath house near
the pond and putting in lockers and

II are good for the recital, according to
statement made by Mrs. Jean Park
hurst -Guettler today.
The Paderewski recital is perhaps the
most important on the Parlkhurst
series, owing to the fact that the ia
nous pianist has not played in Amer
lea for years.

Commissioner Porter and Mr.. Pee
bles will visit Gage park In the near
future, look over the grounds and
make an effort to get q moro definite
estimate OF the cost. They also will
make a preliminary survey of the
grounds and make prospective loca-
tions for the green's, tees.
1t is estimated that more than
5000 people are employed as clerks
in offices or mercantile establish
ments in Topeka and Mr.. PEBBLES is
convinced that ten per cent of this
number would adopt golf as a sys-
tenn of recreation If given an oppor-
tunity, in addition to others who are
engaged in other pursuits.
