length Of the resort, than holiday tarongs
numbering thousands moved oceanward
to-day to enjoy this and numerous other
notable municipal improvements which
have been completed for the convenience
and comfort OF returning summer hosts
to this popular resort. Perhaps the
boardwalk is the most important Of the
new improvements, but the reconstruc-
ton of the beach front pavilion3 and
other such progressive steps have met
with spontaneous approval of the sum-
mer contingent
Now, with the beach front in splendid
condition. the city Commissioners. with
the support of the progressive element
in the resort, are preparing for the con-
struction of fine new eighteen hole
golf course, one of the greatest needs
of Bradley Beach. A splendidly situated
and geographically favorable tract of
land of ample proportions to make pos
sible the construction of a good course
will probably be bought within a few
days and the initial steps taken at once
looking toward the building OK the
course. The tract is close to the resort
and embraces approximately $50 acres.
The dedication of the new clubhouse
and headquarters Of the Bradley Beach
ishing Club next week will be the occa-
sion for a casting tourney. which will
be open to every one. One OF the i'm
portant prizes which is expected to stim-
ulate interest in the events Is that for
the person who breaks Harold Lentz' s
long distance casting record.
The opening this week OF the La Refine
