THE tate of the Banncckburn Golf
i Club will be known within a fort
night. The membership of the club,
meeting last night at the club house at
the call Of the board of governors to
decide whether the UluA affairs should
be continued, voted to voluntarily IN
crease their annual dues from $50 to
500 and to ask the cwrier Of the prop
erty on which the golf course and club
house is built to extend the club an
additional loan. The answer as to
whether the loan will be made will be
forthcoming within two weeks. A: thur
McGeorge, a life member of the club
and man well known to many golfers
around Washington, represents the
owners OF the property. He makes his
home In Wilmington, Del.
The question of just what to do
about reconstruction of the golf course
was left undecided. Bannockburn
hopes to raise several thousand dollars
In dues and to have enough money
thereby to make many. improvements
in the golf course. Just what the ex.
tent of these improvements will be
cannot be known until the fate of the
loan is decided.
The membership extended q vote Of
confidence to the present board of gov
ernors, and asked them to remain in
ONCE after some of them had rendered
LLleI1 IeSlBIlatlOIlS. Inc reSiRnatlON 1n
Middleton Beaman, president Of the
club. was accepted with regret. after
Beaman had insisted that it be ac-
cepted, and the membership had
several times refused. BY this resigna-
ton John j. McInerney becomes the
club executive, acting as president until
the annual election of officers late in
January or early in February. Nc
Inerney has been vice president.
The heartening part of the meeting
was the fact that the Bannockburn
membership voted to increase their
dues, and to continue operation of the
club. Had the club decided to term
mate its existence, one of the oldest
and finest golf organizations around
Washington would have passed out.
