tees from as far back as the markers
can be placed.
Congressional is another course
which can be stretched out to be-
come a sluggers' paradise. The off,
cial measurement of the present
Congressional course stands at 6,652
yards. But this is measured from
the middle tees. Actually Congress
sional's course can be stretched out
to more than 5000 yards by putting
the tee markers back at such, holes
as the second, fourth, fifth, seventh,
eighth, thirteenth and eighteenth.
Burning Tree Can Stretch.
Few golfers ever have played
Burning Tree from its extreme yard
age. If they did they would find
much greater length to that splen-
did course than the 6,610 yards
called on the score card. Burning
Tree, from the back tees, probably
measures over $500 yards. It has
been played in 65 strokes by Fred
Mcleod and Leo Diegel.
Manor, Washington, Woodmont
and Army Navy are not short
courses, but the score card shows
they do not have the official yard
age of the others. Indian Spring s
nine-hole layout, played twice, runs
over $500 yards in length. But
Beaver Dam remains, according to
score-card measurement, the longest
course around town.

BY JUDSON BAILEY,

NEW YORK, April 8.-The
New York Yankees played before
41,310 fans in five games in
Texas and Oklahoma and three
times the crowds overflowed the
parks and the throng at the
San Antonio game was larger
than the total attendance for
all the exhibitions of the st.
Louis Browns, who trained there.
If New York gets tired of too
many world championships the
club still could be put on tour
and make what is known as a
tidy sum.
The experts are falling off that
winter bandwagon of the st.
Louis Cardinals faster than you
can say Francis Raymond Blades.
The Redbirds have looked be-
wildered in their training games.
The pitching hardly has lived up

Course at lundover

They may seem well over 1000
yards long, challenging the extreme
length of the stoutest hitter, but
actually the longest golf courses
around Washington are not of ex-
cessive length as championship
courses go.
Beaver Dam, layout where slug
ging is the order of the day and
where the big hitter strictly is in
his element, for years has been
regarded as Washington's length
lest golf course. It still is, accord
ing to the latest official measure
ments, but at least one other course
around the Capital can be stretched
out to greater length than Beaver
Dam.
Al Houghton, the pro at Beaver
Dam, today announced that accurate
measurements show the Landover
layout, under the rearrangement re-
Gently made, to be 6,717 yards in
length.
Figures on Other Courses.
Measurements on some Of the
other long" courses around town
follow: Columbia, $500 yards;
Chevy Chase, 6,607; Congressional,
6,652; Burning Tree, $50; Kenwood,
$500.
But it all depends on the tees you
use. At Chevy Chase, the only 18-
hole course around Washington with
an Official par below 10, Bob Barnett
has special set of tees which he
uses for the sluggers. Although the
scorecard says Chevy Chase meas
ures only shade over $500 yards,
from the Barnett tees it must
stretch out to more than $500 yards.
