r LEAST three Of the golf clubs
~ about washington have decided
~ to 90 IN for guest lists in

the Winter. The usual restrictions as
10 guests have been lifted and In place
Of comparatively high green fees and
restrictions on local guests over the

Indian Spring took the lead in the
matter OF encouraging guests q few
days ago by the announcement of
Chairman George W. McCarter Of the
golf committee that guest fees on week
days were to be dropped from So
to 81; that the guest fees for week
end guests would drop from - to
50 and that woman guests would not be
required to pay green fees on two days
Of the week II accompanied by q female
member Of the club.
Then along came the Manor Club.
with the adoption Of similar policy,
along almost identical lines, designed
to encourage guests and now comes the
conservative Washington Golf and
Country Club, with o large golfing
membership, which says nothing about
reduction Of green fees, but does an
nounce the lifting Of restrictions on
week end guests. Washington is one of
the older and most popular of the clubs
about washington and for several years
has had in effect a policy of no local
guests Of Saturdays, Sundays and holi-
days. Out-of-town guests may be en-
tertained ct the club ut q cost for golf
Of IS . day, but local guests have been
strictly taboo. Now the Virginia club
has lifted the bars on local guests on
week ends and, although nothing has
been said about reduction in green
fees, local guests may play golf at
washington on days which have been
closed TO them. in the past.
Inasmuch as the revenue from guest
fees Is a considerable. item in the in
come Of all Of the more popular local
clubs, 1t would seem to be hitting that
lifting OF the restrictions from guests
should be thoroughly worth while, pro-
vided such action does not divest the
club members of the use Of their course
or crowd the course too much. At least
five of the local clubs net from 46 900
to $4,000 q year in green fees-no in
considerable amount when 1t Il con-
sidered that such money usually is

N IF some of the minor
