AS might have been expected the
volume of golf played around WASH
lngton has fallen off this year over
the total for each of the past several
seasons. With only one exception
the private country clubs around
town report less golf this year than
last, and there won't be as much golf
played next year. Complete reports
from most of the clubs are not vet
available. and many do not keep
records Of play, but the men in the
golf shops know the trend and
they estimate that play has fallen
off somewhat, although not sharply.
Columbia is one OF the few clubs
that keep careful records of the
rounds of golf played. For several
years that record has shown that
individual rounds totaled around
$4,000. But Caddiemaster Set Col
linge says it will go higher this year.
There are of course, several rea-
sons for the decline in play, all di-
rectly connected with the war. First
is the fact that golfers are busy,
far buster than they have been in
past years Second is that bogey
of transportation.
You don't hop into your buzz
buggy and zoom out to the club any
more. You have to think about
gasoline and tires-frst. Third is
the golf ball situation, and fourth
is the caddie bogey, now getting
much worse and soon to be one of
the big factors in golf. 1t isn't fun
to lug a 25-pound golf bag over
five miles of rolling country. hit the
shots and watch the ball. The
caddie situation at many clubs has
been bad for months and is getting
worse.
Caddie Rates Jumped.

impossible to get caddies to work.
even at the increased rates they are
getting. Caddie rates at most clubs
nowadays are from $125 to $1.50 a.
round. At this time last year the
standard rate was buck round.
Added to the lessened play at the
country clubs is the fact that the
East Potomac Park course has been
out of action since mid-September
That has cut deeply into play on the

A win would give Ohio an undis-

Michigan also can grab share

While Brown has insisted his
squad has gotten along ION a shoe

Michigan got some bad news with
the information that Ohio's fastest
halfback, pint-sized Tommy James,

Like the wood duck and the gold
en- eve, they nest in trees and many
places equally odd.
Canada Goose Plentiful.
The limit on Canada geese this
season was reduced from the three
of previous years to two, because, ac-
cording to biologists of the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service,
their numbers had reached an
alarming low point.
AS in the case of canvasback
ducks last year, they again may be
wrong, but, as with the cans then,
only the January census of water
fowl on the wintering grounds this
year will provide the answer.
In the meantime, there are on the
air highways and byways larger
flights of Canadas than we have
seen for 20 years. So noticeably
large and noisy are the great wedges
that follow down the Delaware to
the crossing at the Sassafras River
and then spread out, either down
the Bay or on over to the Potomac,
that reports are coming in from
every section. Daily thousands upon
thousands are making their way
South and East to the wintering
grounds in the Carolinas.
Meanwhile. those wild-fowlers for
tunate enought to have blinds on the
Sassafrass are reaping a harvest.
The limit of two. in most every
instance is but a matter of minutes.
Duck shooting is not up to the goose
shooting, but then. while the one
will be getting better, the other will
be over all too soon.

Little Weekday Play.
Chevy Chase, Congressional and
the other clubs report the same
situation, heavy weekend play and
a dropping off in play through the

gasoline and tire situation, and the
fact that people don't have as much
time to play through the week as
in past years. But Columbia s play

any chance of clubs going out of

as it is. That time may come for
the outlying clubs without public

Toronto's defending champion
Maple Leafs have an opportunity to
recapture first place in the National
Hockey League tonight when they
face off against the Montreal Cana
dlens, but such an achievement
must be accomplished in the three
regular periods of play.
There will be no overtime period
in the event of tie score at the end
of the third session, for this will be
the first game under the new policy
announced yesterday by League
President Frank Calder banning eX-
ira periods for the duration of the
war.
The move to keep all the games
within the regulation so minutes
was prompted apparently by the
difficulty some of the clubs have eX-
perienced in making their split
second train connections under war
time travel restrictions.
The game between the rival Ca
madam clubs, to be played at To-
ronto, will be the only one in the
league this evening. but all six teams
are scheduled to see action tomor-
row night.
With the Leafs only one point
behind the circuits co-leaders, the
Detroit Redwings and Chicago
Blackhawks. a victory would enable
them to take over sole possession
of the lead, one point to the good.
A Montreal victory would move the
Canadiens from fourth place into
a thirdplace tie with the Leafs. ,
