McCALLUM ITH the most striking object lesson they possibly could have in the shape of a drought that set a record for a period of more than 40 years, several of the local golf clubs are con- sidering installation of fairway water- ing systems as a medns of retaining throughout the Summers to come the fairways which went completely out last Summer. But so far the project has gone only as far as the thinking stage, for the cost of installing a fairway watering system is something to think seriously about, as one costs $35,000 or $40,000. This is cularly true in view of the fact most clubs just skim along with only a slight excess in_revenue above expenses. For several months during Lhe sum- mer many of the ‘best at Columbia were zlvlnfo mz hlrwny ‘proposal t of thought. ey took heart of grace when_O.

Carl Goetzinger will be in charge of the golf shop at the club, while Francis Gmuer will aid Hartig at the golf school. FFICERS were elected at a meeting of the Argyle Country Club last night. Dr. A.
