ststed that from reports in hand
abbut one hundred persons already
hsh signed membership cards and
had paid IS as their first Install
ment. David Snellenburg had paid
$500 cash for a five-year member
ship. it was announced
In order to provide adequate reve-
nue. for the proper maintenance OF
the links. il was decided upon sug-
cestion of the board OF governors, 90
increase the green fee from 50
cepts TO so cents daily. 1t was
pointed out that this is necessary
sos long as the city does not contrib
utf toward establishment or main
teDance of the course.
Much discussion was given to the
subject of municipal aid for the golf
course. Mayor Harvey pointed out
that the city had already done much
toward assuring the links when the
Board Of Water Commissioners had
turned over TO the association with
out charge of the use of the vast eX-
panse of land around Porter Reser-
voir. The Mayor pointed out that
to buy or rent such acreage would
cost considerable money. The May
ortthought this was a commendable
act on the part of the Water Board,
and several speakers expressed their
appreciation OF what the Water
Board has done.
The Mayor spoke Of Council hav-
ing made its budget for the cur
rent year, and he thought the
chances, remote ola city appropria-
ton for a golf course at this time,
even though Council was in SYM
pathy with the project.
President of Council Howard NJ
Ward explained the city government
tai system and the present financial
situation confronting Council. He
said Council was in sympathy with
the Association in its efforts, and
hoped Council could find some way
to contribute something to the Con-
tagious Hospital and something to
the maintenance of the golf course. !
A rising vote of thanks was given
Charles Toplkis as originator of
The public golf course idea and TO
c. +. Ernst as secretary Of the asso-
citation.
