REAL GOLF Is PROMISED FOR
AUSTIN PARK SOON
The West Park board and Jupiter
Pluvius are very much on the outs.
The former had all plans well set for
the opening of the Austin Park golf
links more than a week ago, but at
the last minute the works to which
the weather man has the key cut
loose and numerous little swamps put
all plans on the blink.
With a little stretch of real sum-
mer weather, however without rain
-golfng will be in full sway out at
the city limits West. The park board
is putting on full steam in the drain
age line. A slope in the land toward
the southeast may make it possible
to run the bitches dry.
The green's on the course are in
fine condition, considering the short
length of time they had been COM
ing around. A shelter house has been
erected and sand boxes have been in
stalled. All told, Austin has some
thing that muchly resembles an hon
est-to-goodness golf course.
Ground conditions permitting, the
Garfield Golf club will hold an open
ing within the next two weeks. Chick
Evans will probably be one of the
quartet to play the initial round. Big
times are planned. e,
The course is a nine-hole one and
is 3,431 yards long. The holes line
up as follows: LIST, 389 yds.; I'd, BIT
Sd. 200; 4th, 533; 9Th, 211; 9Th,
sos; 9TH, 457; 9Th, Al; 9th, 4O5. The
first hole is boomerang hole and the
sixth dogshead. .......
