On the property of the new Prince
Georges Country Club, formerly
Beaver Dam, soon may arise a / 900
unit apartment house in the ex-
panding housing program around
the National Capital.
Al Houghton, president and golf
pro OF the Prince Georges Club,
which took over the old Beaver
Dam property three months ago,
said negotiations now are in prog
ress between the financial hackers
OF the new club and the Govern
ment for financing the big apart
ment operation and if the nego-
tiations succeed work will start
within few months.
Houghton said the apartment
structure will not take any part
OF the present golf course but will
use part of the land of an old nine
hole layout formerly in use by
Beaver Dam Club.
Location of the apartment roughly
will be east and north of the club
house, near the entrance road to
the club and along Landover road.
The men behind the lease of the

Sizzling a Under Par

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Feb. IA
Dutch Harrison must think he
owns Breckenridge Golf Course
and the slim guy from Arkansas
does have something of lien on 1t.
He holds the Texas Open record
over this picturesque route-a
blazing 271-and now he's making
a super effort to trim that down.
The Arkansas Traveller, who
moved to Chicago but retained his
OZARK drawl, was out in front with
sizzling 4 under par today as
golfdom's nomads set out over
the second l8 holes in the battle
for 5000 in cash awards.
Harrison's 81 was a stroke under
Chick Harbert of Battle Creek,
Mich; Erie Ball, the Charlottes-
vile, Va, unknown, and Jack
Grout, West Pittston, Pa. veteran.
Deadlocked at SO were baldish Har-
ry Cooper of Minneapolis and Lloyd
Mangrum Of Chicago.
Still in easy striking distance-as
always for the mighty mite OF the
links-was tanned Ben Hogan; who
shot TO- Grouped with him were
Tod Manefee of San Antonio. Joe
Brown of Des Moines and Leland
Gibson of Kansas City.
But despite the steady and with
ering assault on par, the players
for pay had to take a back seat
as far as the gallery was concerned.

bile tires. of course. will last a long
time with proper care. yet lots of
people are worrying about them to
the point where they are casting
around for some other means of
getting to the country clubs. This
goes for the men who considered a
IA or Is mile jaunt to a club just a
pleasant joyride in happier days.
Here is the way the country club
transportation situation sizes up
this year: Columbia and Chevy
Chase. the two clubs on outer Con-
necticut avenue, are in the clear
Both of them may be reached by
established and popular bus trans
portation. The streetcar line which
used to run out Connecticut avenue
doesn't exist any more, but bus
transportation will take members OF
both clubs to the club door.
Indian Spring is in much the same
boat, with the Colesville bus run
ming within 200 yards of the club
house. Argyle is near the same
line. although Argyle members will
have a walk of about half a mile
from the Colesville pike to their
clubhouse.
Washington Club Lucky.
Washington Golf and Country
Club. in nearby Virginia. is in a
good spot where bus transportation
is concerned. Buses run from the
center of the city right past the
door of the Washington Club, and
the neighboring Army Navy Coun-
try Club, while not in as good shape
as Washington. has a bus line run
ming nearby. Woodmont, on Wis
consin avenue beyond Bethesda
also is in the clear where trans
portation is concerned Frequent
buses run by the Woodmont portals
on their way to Rockville.
But how, you may ask, about Con-
gressional, Manor, Bradley Hills and
Prince Georges, the four outlying
clubs? Manor and Congressional
are about IA miles from the heart
of downtown Washington. Bradley
Hills is in the same case, and Burn
ing Tree isn't much nearer than
Congressional. At present these
four links organizations are not on
established bus or streetcar lines.
But they will be. or If not on
commercially operated bus lines
they will be capable of being
reached without burning up those
precious tires. The transportation
problem for Congressional, Burning
Tree, Kenwood and Bradley Hills in
all its phases, is common to all three
clubs. Already members of the
River Road and Bradley Hills COM
munities well beyond the District
line have met with representatives
Of the Capital Transit Co. and have
assurances of some form of bus
service to these communities. Of
