CHASE FOREMEN |UNINTERESTED |AS PURCHASERS
Meeting of Directors on November 10, May Set
 tie Situation
BY JOHN A. CLUNEY

Whats to become of the Matta- tuck Country club2 Only time will tell, and not too long a period, either, for the officials and direc- tors of the popular SouthingtOn mountain organization are hardly in 8 position to predict its imme-- diate future, what with an attend ance of about six people last night at an advertised meeting that should interest about 25O note hold- CTS, members and directors, past and present. Due to the presence of no more thal. a stalwart half-dozen, another and final meeting will be held on Tuesday, November 10, at which time a report will be made as to the possibility of keeping the club as organized or letting it go to satisfy mortgage or note holders who have been clamoring for fnan- cial action for the past two years.
 Last Drive
 More specifically, Dr. A. F. o. Leary offered to head a committe which plans to garner subscriptions that may hold of the big bad wolves of interest and principal un- til such time, within a year, that an "angel" may present himself as the saviour of the club, that has had Q hectic career for the past decade.
 Last summer, persistent and current report had it that the club was to be taken over" by the Chase Foremen'S association, which would continue it as a golf club for its own choosing, the plan also reported to include the purchase of the much courted Fritzi Scheff property, where tennis courts were to be laid out, and a clubhouse established that would make any organization feel proud. Today, both Robert Stro- hacker, president of the Chase Fore mems association and Tim Ferris, ex-president of the group, were positive that the Chase foremen, as an organization were no longer in- tereSted in the Mattatuck Country club. They did proposition Matta- tuck officials last summer, but the possible deal 'fell through.
 The club now has paid member ship of 130 to 150 men and women, Secretary Alfred Meyerhans stated.
 More RumOrs
 Another possible purchaser has been rumored for week or so, in the person of J.J. Bud" Geoghegan of the Highland Country club of Meriden where he is professional and director. Pending the outcome of the November 10th meeting, MT. Geoghegan had no comment to make today relative to his interest in the possible sale, foreclosure, or disposition of the club.
 Then again, the property, which is extensive, may wind up as 8 large real estate proposition, in the form of building lots. Who knows? The answer to that is Ion one." The November 10th meeting will be held in Room POT, Brown building.

A POOR RECOMMENDATION

Press dispatches this week carried the report
that J. d. Ross of Seattle had been recommended
for the post of federal reclamation commissioners,
and there has followed considerable agitation In
eastern Washington to see that he does not get
the post.
It is hard at this time to decide whether the
recommendation of Ross is an actual fact, or If
has been done as some ones idea of joke, but
whatever the object we hope it is not taken ser
iously in Washington, DC, for the west needs
a reclamation commissioner who is interested LII
the development of irrigation throughout this
soction of the nation.
There are those who think that Ross is a friend
Of the COMMON people for the simple and absurd
reason that he works for municipal power sys-
tenn. The fsct is, however, that he has never done
anything which might qualify him for this inn
portant positioo and he knows so little about
irrigation to be wholly disqualified
