The eighteen hole course at the
Country club is a nerve-settler to the
famous Santa Fe Trail foursome. In
stead of fretting around on a siding
these notable railroaders may now cut
over another main line and go light
ahead with their strenuous game.
Tomorrow will be a big day at
Shawnee due to the interclub match.
Topekans who wish to witness some
pretty golf should take a Highland
Park street car or motor to the links
and watch the play.
The view from No. Is green at the
Country club to the southeast over
toward the Shawnee course is one of
the beauty spots near Topeka. High
land Park players can be seen as
white specks on the wonderful land
scape.
The famous old well near the will
lows on Shawnee No. 6 was an ultra
life saver during the cloudy water
period this week There never was a
nineteenth hole-even in the days of
yore-like Shawnee's No. 6.
Work has started on the women's
locker rooms and showers in the
Country club basement In order to
make the layout more convenient and
comfortable the women have decided
to raise 5000 as an addition to the
club appropriation. This means
Sunday or two Of ''penny-a-point"
play by the men. 1t also means a
point" events always furnish an ex-
cellent alibi for sweet shooters on off
days.
Ho. hum! Now for game before
dark.
The high south winds and the baked
fafrwapS have made several days of
this week periods never to be for
gotten by the short shooters who re-
ceive the thrill of a lifetime in the
length of their shots. The long stick
ers have made some marvellous holes
Friday afternoon at the Country club,
for instance, Pro Trout drove to the
trap across old No. 1 fairway on No.
6. His second shot, a mashie. went
over the green The average player is |
mighty pleased if he reaches this
green on a whale of a second brassie.
At Shawnee the drives on No 3 and
No. were screamers. Churchill Sar-
gent made No. in an eagle Friday
afternoon
A fair golferess was hit just above
the eye by a long brassie shot with
the wind at Shawnee Friday after
noon. On these windy days when
balls carry longer than the player
figures it is dangerous golf to shoot 1
into players ahead even tho they
have taken the required shots away |
In this particular case the women
players had waved thru the men be-
hind them
When Shawnee plays her new grass !
sand green's tomorrow the original
Donald Ross holes will be used on
most fairways. The real use of the
traps and bunkers and natural hazards |
then will be evidenced.
The Burke company this week sent !
two dozen balls to Pro Trout of the
Country club to be given to Mrs. kurtz |
KelIam and Harlow Hurley for their /
recent membership in the "Hole-in- |
One" club. Mrs. Kellam and Mr. |
Hurley each holed a tee shot on old |
No. 5.
Tom Lee. par enthusiast in tennis
at the c. C. IS weakening to golf. He
takes up the game, tho. with hesi- !
fancy and with the explanation that |
he is becoming too old and too fat
to keep up with his farovite sport. |
DR.. Robert Stewart is another athlete
of the days goneby who has been
tempted to golf but who claims that
