Los Angeles Is another club with a crack outfield, bolter batted .339 last year and stole 19 bases: Maggert batted S07 and stole 05 hassocks; while Rube ttiiia fell a little below nis iormer marki and batted only .171. Jackson, a Three-Eye leaguer, is a candidate for the extra outfield position, ah lour of these horticulturists are left-handed h i. men and this would be rather much of a calamity were it not that Mareart and Wolter are both fairly consistent batsmen even against south paw pitching. Beavers About Keurth. Portland would appear to rank next n line, although ponslbly there isn't much difference between the Beaver flv-chasers and those cornered by oak land and Vernon. Nixon. Southworth and Spcas are all good hitters. iMxon grand base runner put weatr. in ha fielillnc and Southworth is his antithesis sterling outfielder ana weak on the bags.

Seattle opened its municipal links last May 12 and during the first seven months 2K.06:i persons, or a daily aver age of 122 for the 214 days of play, hail circled the IS holes. Just before the snow 3 1 7 golfers were out on one .Sunday. The links have been not only self sustaining but have made money for the park bureau. Annual tickets have been taken out by 43j, these golfers paying either 1 2 per annum for look er, clubhouse and greens fees, or 36 per year for the playing privileges alone. Many Playere Are Transients. Single game privileges cots 25 cents per round, and in Seattle at least 40 per cent of the players have been tran sients. Thus the revenuo will he closo to 110.000 for the year, which is more than sufficient to pay for upkeep and im provements. Pan Francisco. Los Angeles, Tacoma and Seattle have municipal links, and Spokane is opening up a municipal links on the river below the falls early this Spring. Practically every other city of 100,000 population in tho coun try has one or more municipal courses. Des Moines, la., has four municipal courses, according- to R. P. Tisdale, a prominent Portland golfer, who helped in the movement both there and in Des Moines. Chicago and JVevr Tork Have Doien Chicago and New York hava nearly a dozen municipal courses. "I haven't investigated the merits of the proposal of the Ladd Estate Com pany to lease 151 acres near Keed College to the city," said Victor A. Johnson, president of the Waiyerley Country Club, yesterday. "Possibly the city may not be aoie to reach some common working DasiM, but one thing sure is that this city needs a municipal golf links, and the East Side perhaps would serve the people most advantageously. "I am not speaking in behalf of the wealthy class but for the poorer peo ple. The folk who will benefit from a municipal links are not those who are members ot tho present clubs, but those who cannot afford the more ex clusive playing privileges. Golf Declared Ideal Sport. "Golf is not a frivilous game at all. There are thousands of people, young, middle-aged and old, clerks in stores or in small businesses of their own. who get absolutely no benefits from the present advantages. Many find tennis and baseball and swimming too strenuous. But golf is an ideal sport. It is not violent but it takes the peo ple out in the open air and makes them better citizens. 'Years ago golf used to be considered an "old man's game." That prejudice is rapidly disappearing. It is only necessary to point to the fact that some of the most strenuous athletes In the world are 'wild' about golf to knock the props from under this an cient belief." C. H. Davis, Jr., is another prominent golfer of the city who is boosting hard for a municipal course. Winter Golf Gossip Robert White, a well-known profes sional near New York, Is construct ing a private golf course for Otto Kahn, the New York banker. Kahn has pur chased 400 acres near Cold Spring Har bor, Long Island. Nine holes will be ready in June. eve Two kids entered the Kansas City Athletic Club a few days ago. "Do you need any more caddies here?" one of the boys asked. 'Caddies for what?" the building superintendent queried. "Why. fer that indoor goir. The boys were assured that the in door game did not require the services of caddies. e The Rock Island Arsenal Golf Club is one of the few in the United States where the caddies are forced to keep their employers' scores. "Score blanks are printed on tne backs of the caddy cards." explained J. Martin Watson, of Waveriey Country Club, the other day. "The boys are re quired to keep all scores and they are always checked along with the caddy fees. I think this system will make a pronounced hit at Waveriey this year. It will do away with complaining about handicapping." A woman, taking lessons steadily for THE TELEGRAPH OPERATOR rJUDUE THE.

During their visit in Los Angeles tho tourists defeated Warren Wood and Joe Martin, professionals at tho Los Angeles Country Club. Fovargua turned in a 75. Martin a 76, Reid a "7a and Wood a 79. Reid found some diffi culty on the sand greens that feature the Southern California links. Reid is now the professional at tha Wilmington (Del.) Country Club. NEW YORK PLANS LINKS OPTIONS OX TWO TRACTS OK LAND ALItKADY OBTAINED. Holding Company lo Be Known As Massapcqua Golf, lnc, With Capi tal of $1,000,000. NEW YORK, Feb. 5. (Special.) A four-course golf links is the latest scheme in New York. William C. Freo- man, father of the idea, has been r sponsible for obtaining an option on two tracts of land at Massapequa, L. I One tract is 357 acres, while the other. separated from tho first by only tho tracks of the Long Island Railroad, contains 205 acres. It is within an hour's ride of this city. The holding company will be known as the Maesapequa Golf. Inc., with a capital of 41,000,000. consisting of 100,- 000 shares, all common stock, at si" a share. The public will bo asked to sub scribe $175,000 of this stock and in re turn the holder will receive a coupon book, entitling him to 50 per cent, of his subscription in playing privileges on the basis of 11 a day except on Satr lirdavs Sundays and holidays, wnen the charsre will be $2. This 50 per cent playing privilege will be divided over a period of five years. The name Niblick, L. J.. has been sug gested for the title of the special sta tion for the golfers to get of at on, the Long Island Railroad to reach tha grounds. The Holding company con trols the property with some liabili ties, of course, but the public subscrip tion of $475,000 will float tho enter prise. Tne pudiic win own ir,s p-c cent of the whole proposition and wilt get back half of their money in play ing privileges. They will still own their stock, always worth par or more. The Massapequa Country club will lease the golf courses and will conduct tournaments under its name, thus com plying with the rules of the United States Golf Association that golfers cannot run a golf club to make money. It is a member of the Metropolitan Golf Association in good standing. The 357-acre tract is large enougb to accommodate three l!-hole courses be sides having ample room for the con struction of clubhouse, caddie nousa and other outer buildings- necessary; for the comfort of those playing or inn tructing.

When the Tualatin Country Club) olf course is increased to full IS hole, -and it is believed that work will commence on the second nine early thia Summer Tualatin may have one ot the freakiest and yet most sporty holes) in the United States. Preliminary plans call for the loca tion of at least one hole on the oppo site bank of the Tualatin River from the clubhouse and the present course; This will necessitate the building of a suspension bridge across the river and. will mean a great boosting in tha profits of some of the ball manufac turers. The Tualatin' River is 40 or 50 yards wide at this point and is flanked by high and precipitous banks. It will take a good 60-yard drive to clear the river and beware the "topper." Tualatin club directors recently pur chased adjoining property for tbe ad-e ditional nine holes. AND THE GOOD JUDGtT THEY WOOLO I PUT . Them TO THE TOBACCO
