PUBLIC LINKSAT
PDDLANI PARK
ISLAIEST Plan

= . s = Il = = - p !. =
Honolulu will have a public golf
links at Kapiolani Park if the present
proposal of the Hawaii Promotion
Committee is passed on fayorably by
the Chamber of Commerce.
The members believe that with a 8
hole course at Kapiolani Park
Honolulu will receive many tourists
who Will have an opportunity to play
their fayorite game near the beach
and close to the big hotels, in that
vicinity With the Oahu Country Club
at one end of the city and a public
golf links at the other end. Honolulu
would be well supplied with golf.
According to the members there are
hundreds of visitors to the city who
enjoy the game, and most OF these
are men of wealth who remain here
for some time. The golf players are
boosters in every respect, and the pro-
posal was made that the opportunity
for the establishment of a course is
now and the matter will be taken up
with the Chamber of Commerce.
Upon the return from the trip to
Hawaii, George Angus, a member of
the committee, took up the project of
establishing a golf course below the
Volcano House on Hawaii Mr. Angus
is a, member of the greens committee
of the Oahu Country Club and is fami
liar with the golf situation.
He stated that should Dor is hole
course be laid out below the Volcano
House many tourists would re-
main at Kilauea for an indefinite pc.
Rod, as there are many golfers who
like nothing better than to play the
game the year round. Members Of
the Promotion Committee looked over
the ground during their stay on, the
Big Island and all we're satisfied that
a links could be planned in that vic
unity. 1t is expected that the prelimin.
airy plans for the establishment of a,
course will be made in the near flu.

But war has wrought wondrous
change. Today. molasses is selling at

every cane grower is striving to make
