Columbia Will Hold
Opening Golf Day
Late in April

Columbia is planning Its opening
day, with the usual ceremonies for
either April 26 or April 30. This is
the day when summer rules take
the place at Columbia of the tee
up" privileges which all golfers
around Washington have had since
late October. Since the demise Of
the famed Boosters" Club, the
opening days at Columbia haven t
had the same hilarious fun, but they
still put on quite show at the
big club near Chevy Chase Lake.
Who remembers the days when
"Cy' Cummings and Billy McNally,
both now dead, led the parade OF
Boosters to the watering trough
near the eighth tee, and how Hugh
Saum, who doesn't play golf any
more, kidded the chief Boaster.
1t was an organization unique
among country clubs, formed by
Red Banagan and George p.

chance to make good on his locker

Philadelphia Only Team
To Go West Twice; Pros
Stort September 10.

Generally touted as a contender
for the Eastern championship be-
cause of the acquisition of Slingshot
Davey O'Bien, the Philadelphia
Eagles hopes may go a-glimmering
in the wake of an unusually tough
schedule, according to the National
Football Leagues 1899 list of games
released today.
For although all of this sections
teams will play three intersectional
games as usual, only the Eagles will
be called upon to make two trips
to the West. Furthermore, the
Eagles will be required to play their
last three games on the road and
four of their last five They are the
only Eastern team which will not be
at home after November IL.
Skins to Play Packers.
The Redskins schedule is no
tougher, nor easier than that of their
foremost rivals, the New York
Giants. Both must play the Detroit
Lions and Chicago Cardinals, with
the Redskins playing the Green Bay
Packers for their third intersec-
tional game while the Giants play
the Chicago Bears. incidentally, the
Washington-Green Bay game, sched-
uled for Milwaukee on October %,
is the only league contest to be
played outside of the loops member
cities. The Giants go West for their
game with the Lions.
The season will open a week later
than last year, on September 10, but
will close on the corresponding date,
the first Sunday in December when
the Redskins meet the Giants in
New York. Only four night games
have been scheduled, two less than
last year.

Eastern and Western champions will
be played in the home city of the
