improvements for Nest Season

spot to get an open shot at the green.
Later in the season Fits will begin
reconstruction of the ninth green, which
1t is proposed to rebuild entirely and
move to spot nearer the tenth tee
than the present green. The green also
will be changed from Its present
horizon" character to one in which the
back Of the putting surface will be
brought out more completely by use Of
mounds. Other improvements scheduled
for Columbia include new tees at the
tenth and twelfth holes, both designed
to force play down the middle Of the
fairways, although in neither case will
the length Of the hole be changed.
Over at Washington, Chairman
McClenahan Of the greens committee
and Greenkeeper Whaley are consider
ing plans for reconstructing the seventh
green and again are figuring on O
scheme for so changing the seventeenth
that the tee shot will be an easier affair
and will be played to a fiat place. An
other alternative being considered is
roofing over Of the ditch which now
catches a tee shot not far of the line at
the left. The sixth green also may be
changed by removal of the lump in the
makes large portion Of the green I'M
At for placing the cup and kicks off
many good pitch shots.
At Chevy Chase preparations are I'M
der way for planting the new twelfth
green by the stolen method of bent
grass, and it is hoped this green may be
in play at some time during the late
Fall. Chairman Stead of the golf and
grounds committee, says the green may
be playable within few weeks after
it is planted to the bent grass. The
green is almost finished and will be
flanked by traps on the right and left
sides.
Out q the Manor Club Chairman
Thomson and his associates on the
greens committee are continuing the job
lof clearing the woods which flank the
fairways on the first nine holes, and are
considering widening the space in which
the tee shot lands at the ninth. This
,fairway slopes to the left and the hole Is
played as dog-leg to the right. which
|isome golfers claim is incorrect. To
remedy this situation both Thomson
and r. r. Garrity. chairman Of the golf
committee. believe that If the woods
were cleared out at the left side of the
fairway and wider space left at the
left side for the tee shot, the hole would
be improved.

DOEG NOW STATES

TT is an interesting fact that Cali

IN regards men and women, with
" Maurice McLopghlin, Bill john
sion, Tom Bundy, Peck Griffin, Mary
Browne and the then Hazel Hotchkiss
and May Sutton, is again beginning to
swing back into supremacy-in the
womens side Of the sport.
This being so, curious situation ex-
&ts, in which the West Coast proffers
hat one male racket wielder who prom
tses to hold a place in the top flight,
II not a position at the very top.
4 He, of course is John Hope Doeg.
Either he or John Van Ryn is likely TO
be the national champion within the
Hext two years; but the chances would
seem to favor the Jerseyman unless
Doeg adds TO such potent assets as a
Slistering left-hand service, shrewd
Yolleying and strong overhead game
d better knowledge of correct foot work,
hody position and improved ground
strokes.

year, but with the exception of the IL
year-old Sarah Palfrey, it is doubtful
If they compare either in promise, as
certainly they do not compare in pres
ent ability with the slashing racket
wielders that the Gold Coast sent East
this Summer. Nor should 1t be forgot
ten that the Wightman Cup victory this
year was due to the California girls, in
Guiding, of course, the outstanding
Helen Wills.
OfficIals Are, Gratified.
The tennis season now closed filled
the officials of the United States Lawn
Tennis Association with high grat1f1ca-
ton. Not only national championship
tournaments of various sorts were sup
ported by generous patronage, but sec
tional and club Journeys throughout
the country were attended by large,
enthusiastic galleries.
AS would be natural in season thus
characterized, there have been NUT
terings and open complaints of con-
flicting tourney dates, some Of them re-

bright, for instance, whose Summer
