A Dire Reflection


And it's q sport you hardly
dare try to be economical in
the enjoyment thereof. because
you are more or less expected
to be an easy spender, else it
reflects on your poise, stance,
stroke and social standing.
A modest estimate, based on
500 a year club membership
of the cost Of a round of
golf, might be itemized fairly
about like this:
Caddy, 81. Green fees 81,
often more. Refreshments and
food 50. Wear and tear on
clubs and bag including the
cost Of balls and q lost ball
here and there 81.
There's a S. cold output
that the average game of golf
played at a club will cost. It
does not include transporta-
ton to and from the club. It
does not embrace the element
of gambling on holes and re-
suits which can be quite ex-
pensive and which IS a very
common custom-just to make
It interesting as it were.
OF course, golf can and Is

TERPS LEAVE
W|THH|GH
HOPES

EN- ROUTE TO TAMPA. Fla,
Nov. 30.-Unlversity Of Maryland's
football team hopes that it has an
other upset" in its system. 1t
would like nothing better than to
wind up the season oy defeating
Florida in Tampa Saturday but
realizes it will be the underdog to
the team that conquered Auburn
which previously had spoiled
Georgia's clean slate.
The Old Liners, though, were
two-to-one shots at the best to
beat Washington and Lee last
Saturday but they turned the
trick and did it in such decisive
fashion as to astound the critics.
Washington 6 nd Lee packers were
willing to concede Maryland one
touchdown but that was all. The
Old Liners got five in winning
80 to Is.
More Impressive
What was all the more impress
Sive about Maryland'S victory was
a young team, in the rebuilding
process, having had the breaks
against it all season, could come
back and run rough-shod over
the Generals after the Virginians
had taken a two-touchdown lead
But the Old Liners displayed
fight and versatile attack that
could not be denied.
The Terps will do nothing
other than run through plays
and keep on edge. They left last
night for Tampa, Fla. They will
arrive there tomorrow morning
and take light drill that after
noon.
University of Maryland has
two "bones" to pick with Florida
when they clash in their football
game in Tampa next Saturday.
1t will be only their second
meeting on the gridiron and the
Gators gained the edge in the
initial contest in Jacksonville in
1927. It was a hot battle, with
the Old Liners having a marked
ground gaining margin but being
nosed out z to 6.
A Tight Shoe
Florida was the favorite in that
contest but the shoe was on the
other foot in a basketball upset
the Gators sprang at the ex-
pense of the Old Liners in the
1922 tourney at Atlanta. the last
before the old Southern Confer
ence split.
Maryland had won the title the
year before and was supposed to
have drawn a fine tune-up tilt
in Florida. But Florida was good
and Maryland was not so hot
when they met in a first round
match and the Gators jolted the
experts and the Old Liners by
winning by the decisive score of
80 to "a.
So a victory Saturday for the
Old Liners surely would be balm.

Public Links Profit

That is the reason the public
links are profiting by the low
estate to which club golfing has
fallen. I say low estate advis-
edly. None can deny the clubs
are hard hit. On every side
there are evidences of enforced
economies many Of them are
making In order to keep their
doors open.
I am extremely sorry to see
this state of affairs because I
have long since been convinced
golf is one of the greatest boons
to health and vigor and social
intercourse.
The cost should not be
weighed too seriously by any in
dividual who likes the sport. and
has the leisure to indulge his
fancy.
Many a man has paid out in
golf overhead what he might
otherwise be paying in trying to
regain health lost by lack Of
more sunshine, fresh air, and
moderate exercise.
believe this thing Of golf
economics will adjust itself and
that those with the heaviest in
vestments in the game will .ead
the way out. Manufacturers
and retailers have done much to
reduce the cost of equipment,
but the maintaining and man
ing of lavish, or even compare
lively simple, clubs, and grounds,
is difficult to curb when it
comes to overhead and that is
one reason Beaver Dam isn't
the only current club that is on
the financial ragged edge.

but it is no news to anyone that Beaver

Golf has been the hardest hit of all
the sports since things generally started
to disintegrate back in November, 1929,
and the troubles which face many of
Washington's golf institutions are COM
mon to every section. The only man.
ner in which Washington stands in this
respect is thss the depression hit here
later than in other sports sectors by at
