Sees More Woman Stars.

7 AM strongly of the opinion that in
the next 10 years we shall see
marked improvement in the play
Of our woman golfers. Today there are
a few who stand head and shoulders
above the others. There is a noticeable
increase in the serious interest girls
under 20 years of age are taking in
the game and this is general through
out the country. 1t will take but g.
few years to bear fruit and is unmis-
taxable evidence of higher standard
in wCmen's golf.
To the golfers of America I send my
cordial best wishes for happy and
successful new year. May the spirit
Of true sportsmanship bring to them
its tull reward Of satisfaction.

ANACOST|A COURSE .

Chances Are, Too, That D. C.

BY WALTER r. McCALLUM.

DUBLIC links golf around
r. Washington, which had one
l. of its finest seasons in 1888,
is due for a big year in
1884, according to those in charge
of the three big public courses in
the Capital.
Spurred on by the organization of
the new Anacostia Golf Club. formed
to promote golf affairs on the Anacostia
course, which Is operated by the Board
OF Welfare, the Loeffler-operated enter
prises, which include East Potomac,
West Potomac and Rock Greek Park.
are looking forward to a bigger year in
1884 than even the top-heaVy tourna-
ment schedule of 1888.
Rock Greek Park led the way in tour
neyS last year and B. Harry Graham,
ever looking for more competition, plans
to start the season of with a bang as
early as possible in April, with another
Spring event.
Graham staged numerous tourna-
ments during 1888, notably the Rock
Greek Park open" Of Spring and Fall;
the Thanksgiving turkey" tourney, and
the blind bogey affair held as the clos
ing event Of the year. Only two events
were held at East Potomac, but they
drew big fields, an evidence that golf
in the public parks has not lost its grip.
More and Bigger Events.
THE new Anacostia Club plans sew
eral tournaments for its men,
berS over the course at FairlaWn,
and with this competition to meet the
IOeff1er-Operated enterprises are to hold
more and bigger Journeys in 1884,
among them the city public links cham
pionship for the crown now worn by
from the Woodmont Country Club.
VIII, Claude Rippy, John Connolly,
john NJ. Downey and Nick Altrock are
about the best of the golfers playing
the public courses nowadays, for Ted
Burrows played very little golf last
year and says he plans to join a private
club this year. If Ted does desert the
public courses and shows a return of
the form which won for him the Manor
Club tourney of 1881 and final posi-
ton in the Chevy Chase Club event Of
the same year he will be a tough
hurdle to Surm0Unt
Burrows is a rugged scrapper and q
golfer who knows all the shots. 1t is
doubtful if any other public links player
IS his equal if Ted has ample practice
to get all his shots working
Harry Graham plans to hold another
Spring open tourney at Rock Creek
Park, but this Will be just the beginning
of q long series of tournaments which
will keep the habitues Of the uptown
course on their toes during 1884 Down
at East Potomac Manager Al Farr plans
another renewal of the East Potomac
Parl, open" and also will stage the
city championship.
The women'S municipal tourney for
the crown now worn by Mrs. Peggy
WCotton. will be staged again at Rock
Greek Park this year. a course which
is better suited for the feminine play
ers than those lengthy stretches at
East Potomac Park.

IN NEW ENGLAND

Boston, March 5.--(UP)-Fog disrupted shipping along the New England coast today, and in the in- terior the prospect of continued mild, rainy weather aroued fears of disastrous flood conditiona
 Great banks of snow rested on the hills and mountains in north- ern New England, awaiting only prolonged mild weather to send them spilling into the rivers. Most of the ice-laden streams already were rising under the rains of the past 24 hours.
 The Connecticut river, covered with ice almost from it's source to it's outlet, grew menacing through out Vermont and western Massa- chusetts. Dams were menaced at Springfield and Holyoke. The Winooski river, which went on a rampage in the disastrous floods of 1927, was reported foot above normal at Montpelier, Vt. The Kennebec river In Maine was swol- len, and the Merrimack, from Law renee to Concord. N. H., showed distinct flood tendencies.
 The fog along the seaboard was the thickest in recent memory. Only early arrivals from other ports were able to creep into docks at Boston yesterday. At Providence, R. l.. sailings of all Long Island sound steamers were cancelled late in the day. The Providence, Co., loniai. and Fall River lines also cancelled schedules. The steamer City of Birmingham. from Savan- nah and New York. the President Polk of the Dollar Line and the liner Atlantic, all many hours over- due. were expected to creep into port today.

Labor Laws Ignored
 State Conn. Truckers
Ask State Motor Vehicle Department to Check Up on
 Fragrant NoIators

night to any point in Connecticut within the 12-hour law.
 8. Every week end the com missioner of motor vehicles, through the newspapers, addresses a strong appeal to the individual |motorist, almost pleading with him, to operate his car on our highways with great care 50 that the public may enjoy the use of the highway without loss of life, or personal in jury. The greatest hazard in our midst is permitted to roll along without anyone in authority so much as raising a finger. The department of motor vehicles Is to blame for whatever conditions ex- ist in the field of truck driving Since last July, when the law be- came effective, little or no effort has been made by the officials to enforce the law and make our highways safe for public use. Sure- ly there must be some way to check the hours of labor of truck driv- CT. It Is time that some one in the department take the "bull by the horns" and and clean things thoroughly. It can not be that in a highly civilized and cultural coun- try such as ours, known hazardous conditions will be tolerated.
 4. Steps should be taken to round up these violators of our 12- hour labor law and in this way bring to justice that class of em- ployer that has no moral right to be engaged in a public utility en- terprise. The method that should be pursued by the staet Is very simple and with proper application of ordinary "horse sense" working conditions for the truck driver would be easily improved.
 5. Exploitation of labor ought to be eliminated. A compliance of the law will force owners to increase their total number of workers. This law was passed for the benefit and protection of the people and because of this the state shoulud do its fullest to en- force 1t.
