Atmosphere of a grillroom prevails in the shop of the Chevy Chase Olub,; over which Robert T. Barnett presides. | Around the walls of the renovated golf| shop hang today pictures of the famous | golfers and notable championships of | other years, créating an atmosphere of golf history that fits well with the tra- ditions of the Chevy Chase Club—one of Washington's first golf organizations | and the oldest now in existence around | the Capital. { Suchpflmous figures of other years #s Jerome D.

That uniquea nd thoroughly enjoy- able orrmanization within an organiza- tion, known to members of the Colum- bia Country Club as the “Boasters' Club,” is to stage its Midwinter carnival of fun and frolic next Wednesday at the club. D'Arcy Banagan, chief fac- totum and head winder of the horn. issued & hurry call today to Albert R. MacKenzie, president of the club, and Miller B. Stevinson, one of the prom- inent members, to abandon the lure of golf in the South and come back to Washington to take part in the festiv- ities of the Boasters. MacKenzie ani Stevinson wired that raging rivers nor carthquakes would keep them from at- tending the Midwinter festivities, So Fred McLeod, knowing the propensity of members of the club to indulge in innocent fun and boyish pranks, has ordered himself a suit of tin armor, having in mind a certain event last Summer when the weight of the oc- casion suddenly struck him and left him dumb with its overbearing enor- mity. Banagan, the official rescuer as well as winder of the horn, promises | this year to impress upon McLeod the weighty importance of the occasion. The party will be held in the club- house, according to the notices, as the vagaries of Winter weather are apt to cause inconveniences even to boasters. Some of the members may play goif. however, for an indoor tournament of a sort is scheduled on a favorite course of many of the entrants. MacKenzie, elected last Summer to succeed Hugh H. S8aum, will play his role as chief boaster. At least part of the trouble which lies in wait for the long hitter who hooks a tee shot to the left of the ninth green at Chevy* Chase has been removed.
