Several rounds of play will be need
cd by the visiting golfers to become
used to the public course. They will
find among other factors that the
golfer cannot stray very far off the
fairways at Potomac Park and that
the innocent-looking strips Of rough
at either side of the fairways are in
many ways the most treacherous bit
OF grass to be found anywhere. This
Rough has a clinging quality which
makes accurate play out of it diff

The manner of green construction
at Potomac Park is another factor
which the visitors will find hard to,
fathom with their shots until they
find that an overstrong approach is
sometimes far worse than one short

These things are expected to aid
the public course for years. Included
in the number are Charles Agnew. jr..
