At the meeting last Thursday |when the Chamber of Commerce and the park board split over the resolution introduced by President Pardon C. Rickey of the Chamber of Commetce attempting to take control of the construction of the course cut of the hands of the park hoard, it was voted by the committee to turn over to the park board $14,700. Thfs was to include the sum of $14,200, the bid of the W. H. Hall Co., contractors, an’ ad- ditional $360 for the extension of a water main to the golf grounds and the balance to help defray the ex- pensc of the cost of alterations of | » house which will be used as a| clubhouse, A brief argument over the dif- ference between the $14.200 and the remaining $500 ensued at that time but was settled when Mr. Rickey announced that it was included in the motion, which finally was pass- ed.
