SPORTS CLUB PRO PRAISES FINE TWO.SHOTTER Trying Layout Built After Officer in Plane Finds Likely Terraip. e L BY W. R. McCALLUM.

Munro | Hunter, professional at the club. | Hunter has played many of the leading golf courses of the world | and is in a position to know a good hole when he sees it Back in 1929, when Maj. Dick New- man, United States Cavalry, was under orders from Maj. Gen. Charles P. Sum- merall, then chief of staff, U. §. A, to lay out a golf course on the club prop- | quickly as possible, he saw from | an airplane where a little creek made | a bend around what is now the third | green and visualized from a thousand | feet in the air a putting surface tucked away in that bend. Out of that aerial | view came the best two-shotter on the | course. Navy sS IN the view of some of the golfers of | the club, however, full advantage has not besn taken of the possibili- | ties of terrain and hazards to make it | even better. -Some of the more ardent | golfers believe if the tee was swung around some 150 yards to the east and the fairway run south parallel with a road which forms a boundary of the | club property to raake it a dog-leg af- fair of about the present length of 380 | yards, it would make even a more sporting hole. As it stands now, though, it is rug- ged enough for any one. At the left of the fairway stretches a patch of woods, which is “out of bounds.” At the right stretches a strip of rough from which it virtually is impossible to knock a ball | onto the green. But up around the green the fullest use has been made of the creek. This little body of water makes a bend to the west, then | turns south. In that bend has been | built the putting green i Even without flanking traps or other | hazards that green is one of the hard- est to reach in 2 of any of the putting gre=ns on two-shot holes around Wash- ington. With the wind from the south | or southwest, the second shot some- times becomes a wooden club shot. Even | at best, it is more often than not a | fuil bang with a mashie. F the one-shotters on the course, and there are the conventional four of them, the seventeenth ranks, n Hunter’s opinion, as the finest, ‘The minth and tenth are fair holes, but they are considered in the light of makeshifts against the time when new and permanent ones can be built up a hillside stretch’ng to the club house, with the ninth green and tenth tee closer to the houve. The seventeenth needs only a little de to make it a Not so long | fron point of distanca (it is only 180 yards from the back tee), this hole has a big green and is played over level ter- ritory. But the tee shot must be long enough to carry a ditch a few yards in front of the green, and it must be kept away from the rizht side. There's plenty of room at the left. but a ball hit to the right can go down into a clump of trees or into a ditch—in fact, B‘lm%t anywhere. For the ground all Golf Analyzed BY JOE GLASS UST as the right hand can cause a lot of trouble in shots where a full swing is necessary, it can cause a lot of trouble in putting, where almost no swing is entailed. Try putting with the right hand in control, both taking the club back and bringing it forward. You will note a tendency of the clubhead to move outside the lipe of direction going back and jo turn in toward the left on going through the oall. If you give over ,control to a powerful right hand ‘you will find that throughout the putt you have . to exercise much will power to keep the clubface squarg with the line of direction.

HE local golf courss are in excellent condition for early Winter golf L now. The grass has not stopved growing by any means, notwithstanding ecent heavy ts. In fact putting greens still are being clipped, and fair- ways have a fairly heavy stand of grass. Winter rules are being played on all the courses, and at most layouts back tees are not in use. This means that the scoring will be low until fairways become frozen and putting greens be- come so hard that they will not hold a pitched ball. But just now all the courses are in excellent shape and will continue to be in that condition until a prolonged spell of cold weather comes | along.
