The golfing season at the Barre Golf
club will be officially opened this week
with the beginning of the weekly tour
naments of the men and OF the women.
The green's will be played on for the
first time, as the backward season has
made it unwise to use them and also be-
cause the members and others have been
busy replacing the fencing about the
greens by setting small iron piping in
place of the large wooden posts, which
interfered with accurate playing. Err
nest Anderson. professional golfer from
the Griswold Country club of New Lon
don. Conn, is to be at the Barre and
Montpelier clubs on and after Friday,
May %, prepared to give lessons, and it
viii be an especially good chance for be-
ginners to learn the game. Those desir-
ing to take lessons should communicate
with L. r. Hutchinson or George M.
Marion of the club or with George X.
Putnam of the Montpelier club.
1t is generally understood at Goddard
seminary that the institution will not
be represented at the annual state inter
scholastic track and field meet to be
held under the auspices of the Univer-
sity of Vermont at Burlington on Sat
urday, May %. The athletic authorities
at the seminary viii render decision
either to-day or tomorrow. For the II
past ten years Goddard has been strong
ly represented at this big state event,
and in some years has won the state
title. At all times the seminary ath-
letes have been prominent factors in the
meet. This season there is a dearth of
material at the seminary, and it is the
of opinion that the prospects
are so slight that it would be folly to
enter its squad. For weeks past, or ever
since weather permitted, the squad has
been diligently drilling under the guild
ance of Principal O. X. HOLSTER Ell |
forts are being made by the seminary ,
to arrange dual track meet :
with spaulding high school within the !
coming two weeks. j
