Transportation Woes
Hold Up Golf Meet
Plans al Clubs
Some Weekend Events
Probable at Several
Of Capital Courses
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Few people around town are more
puzzled over the transportation sit
uation than the chairmen of Golf
Committees at the country clubs
Normally at this time of year the
committees would be in a huddle or
getting ready to meet to arrange
their links schedules. This year.
with transportation as it is, they
don't know what to do. even about
arranging a schedule based on a
reasonable amount of weekend
play
Many Of the clubs may be reached
by bus or Streetcar and will continue
in operation with the usual heavy
weekend play much as it was last
year. when automobiles could be used
for getting 70 the clubs. Last Sun
day hundreds turned out on one of
the best days Of a severe winter
The crowds were mere forerunners
of those to come for when the
warm, balmy days Of spring arrive
the urge to get out for a game of
golf is going to be overpowering
And many people will get to the
club in any possible manner They'll
ride miles on streetcars or buses for
few hours on the golf course.
Some Planning Meets.
Meanwhile, however, the men who
have the responsibility of arranging
tournaments for club members are
in a quandary. Main question be-
ic hi
bers turn out for tournaments if
they cannot drive their cars and is it
worth while to arrange schedule?"
Some of the clubs are going ahead
with tourney arrangements. Others
are doing nothing and keeping
their ears to the ground.
Around town there is a hopeful
attitude about possible relaxing Of
the pleasure driving ban to permit
use of automobiles after the heat
ing season ends. No one seems
able to pin it on any official an
nouncement, but the optimistic at
tltude persists. In the meantime
Congressional is closed tight, with
practically no golf being played, and
Manor members will vote a month
hence on whether their club can
continue without use of private au-
tomobiles to reach it.
Several Clubs to Garry On.
Indian Spring, according to Pro
Mel Shorey. has had a number of
