Country Club links will make for
added interest later in the year.
The various tournaments which
v-au be played on these courses may
not use the new holes and fairways
but by late fall there Is every indica'
tion that the courses will be In
operation with the changes.

Peters farm. the new Congressional

the Potomac Park course and the
starting of a project In Rock Creek
Park will bring Washington's com
pliment of courses up to thirteen.
which does not include Two practice
courses.
With all OF these courses In Op
Grafton Washington Is still lack
ing In provision for public park
facilities. A lack OF Congressional
appropriation, the old familiar
story, Is handicapping the gOlfing
public at present. but Col. L. U.
Sheriff., who has done wonders
for Washington In the Potomac
Park projects, promises additional
courses as soon as IL possible
The rapid completion OF the Fast
Potomac Park course and its ex-
tention of twenty-seven holes. or
even thirty-six, would go far to-
ward solving a most insistent de-
mand of public park golfers.

members have lodged a life sized

ment continued to maintain the
course with the meager appropri-
alton allotted it would probably
be years before anything could
be attempted to either enlarge the
force on hand or to add additional
holes to the present nine.
As far as complaints about the
course itself and it's upkeep are
these may be dismissed
almost at once with the exsmiuna-
ton Of the most unusual circum-
stances of the visit of the "brSwn
patch" last year and the fact that
something like six OF every ten
players have no knowledge cf the
niceties Of the game. At that there
was noticeable Improvement to-
ward the last of the season by those
