During the last two years changes
have been made in every hole on. the
course with the exception or tnree'
which the committee deemed were dnfl-
cult enough The latest change, and the
one most difficult to accomplish was
that of bunkering the ninth hole. Where
a beautiful strip of greensward looks
out across the club property toward
Wisconsin avenue. Today workmen have
under construction a small bunker just
north of the green which will catch a
hooked ball, and at the same time stop
r. tee shot from the ninth tee from go
ing into the clump of trees north or the
green. The bunker will not destroy the
beauty of the outlook from the club
house and Will add to the merit of the
hole from a golf standpoint.
Even though Chevy Chase. based on
its length, was none too easy for the
average golfer two or three years ago.
the golf committee noted that expert
golfers found no trouble turning in low
scores over the course. They could place
their shots almost anywhere off the line
and find no particular trouble. This
factor, combined with putting greens
of ample size, made low scoring rather
easy.
object Has Been Obtained.
Noting this, the committee determined
to stiffen the course, and make the man
who would turn in low score at Chevy
Chase keep on the straight and narrow
path to the hole That the committee
has succeeded there can be no doubt,
for shot off the line now finds trouble
of no uncertain degree.
Within the last two years bunkers
have been placed at the right and left
of the first farway to catch badly
placed tee shots: in the center of the
second fairway to catch an underplayed
second shot, and a new green has been
built at the third hole, a we'll trapped
affair which demands unerring ac-
curacy on the second shot.
A new tee has been built for the
fourth hole and the construction of
the guarding ditch changed to make
it imperative that a clean, high shot
be played to this one-shot hole.
The fifth hole has been changed en-
tirely. made longer and with a green
well trapped, and today it stands out
as one of the gems of the course.

worse as the heavy. rains of Friday
night bring down the mud fromsthe
Shenandoah and Monocacy Rivers and

But in spite OF the mud some good
size perch were caught In the river

these fish usually stay In the deeper

their smaller brothers, who will make
their appearance during the first part

another. When this column referred
to the pound sunfiish that are to be
placed In the Tidal Basin, a local
angler told about a friend OF his w. A.
Taylor OF New York, who, when fish,
ing in the Nile, considered pound
sunfish fit only to be used as bait.
Taylor, who has travelled extensively,
has had fishing trips In various parts
Of the world and claims that while fish
ing in the Nile, he captured sunfish
weighing 800 pounds and that his
fatrer caught one Weighing more
than 400 pounds.
A party Of enthusiastic local
anglers motored down to Rock Point
yesterday afternoon to spend Sunday
in quest Of rockfish, or any other
denfzen Of the deep that win bite.

actly where the rockfsh are to be

misplaced shots off the tee and to

The seventh has been stiffened to
demand a we'll placed drive and a
new green has been built demanding
a high second shot with stop to
well bunkered green. The eighth
practically is unchanged and the
ninth has a bunker now under con-
struction. while the tenth remains
the same challenging one-shot hole
it always has been.
Traps have been scattered down
both sides of the eleventh fairway
to catch badly placed tee shots and
a small trap has been placed at the
left of the fairway to catch a hooked
second shot which does not reach the
guarding ditch, while bunkering OF
the twelfth has been changed to con-
form to modern standards. both with
regard to the tee shot and the sec
ond shot.
The green at the short thirteenth
has been raised at the rear to permit
a freer shot at the hole, and new
traps have been sprinkled down the
sides of the fourteenth fairway to
keep the player on the line on this
difficult hole.
New Traps on Ftfteenth.
Two new traps have been placed on
the fifteenth, one to catch a tee shot
to the right and another to catch
sliced second shot, while small trees
now divide the fifteenth and sixteenth
fairways. Traps have been placed at
the left of the approach to the six
teenth green and the back of the green
itself raised.
The seventeenth, the finest hole on
the course, and a real architectural
gem, has not been changed in two
years. A real golf hole, 1T demands
two finely placed shots. The big
bunkers guarding the green severely
penalize a second shot off the line.
New traps have been placed at the
right and left of the eighteenth fair
way to catch a tee shot off the line
and the approach has been narrowed
down to necessitate an accurate sec
ond shot.
In every respect the golf course of
the Chevy Chase Stub now stands as
great test of the game, where two
years ago it's length alone made it

Mackenzie and Thomson led over the
first 18 holes by 3 up, but accurate chip
shots on the part of Farrell, two or
which he holed, together with the splen-
did putting of Sarazen, brought victory
TO the New York pros. A prize was put

that make golf interesting yesterday
at Washington. Garnett's hard-hlt
ball off the tee at tue seventeenth
hole dropped into the ditch, bounced
against the stairs in the 30-foot deep
ditch and rolled up the bank out on
the opposite fairway. The fact that
the ball ran through a S0-foot ditch
is regarded at Washington as one OF
the most unusual shots ever seen on
the hole.

to get things started at once, to take

If the Army engineers decide that
this project will cost too much money,
and Col. Sheriff. says that the neces-
sary money Is not available at this
time, 1t might be raised by public
subscription, or small fee for the

could be charged for the season, say
90 cents or ST.
AS matter Of fact, the opinion of
a great many is that small fee
should be charged for the privilege
of fishing in the Basin. 1t is pointed
out by some anglers that a fee is
charged at the Municipal links for
playing golf and that they see no
reason why a fee should not be
charged for fishing.
