e , NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1930. ATTENDANCE DIARK ATLINKS BROKEN 666 Play Golf at City. Course Saturday .and Sunday All previous records again were broken over the week-end when 666 persons played golf on the munici- pal course Saturday and Sunda) Twenty-six having books of tickets played on each day; 412 others played yesterday making a total of 438 paid rounds, beating the previ- ous high record of September 21. On Saturday there were 202 rounds at 35 cents a round and 26 book tick- ets, making 228 on that day, or 666 for the two days. The increased activity is attrib- uted by those who are familiar with the situation to the installation of the new sand surface greens, taking the place of the temporary greens originally used. The sand surface greens, while only temporary, are of the same type as those used as per- manent greens in many southern courses, Park Commissioner Edwin P. Lamphier, 3, chairman of the golf committee reported today, and are giving satisfaction, he stated. No announcement has been made in connection with the concession situation at the golf course, follow- ing the request of Charles Bernstein last Tuesday to be relieved of his contract. This matter will be taken up at a special meeting of the park board tomorrow evening. Another matter to come up will be the matter of a retaining wall or | a terrace on the east side of the new | memorial entrance to Walnut Hill park, adjoining the Tooney proper- ty on West Main strett. Mayor George A. Quigley, who will be pres- ent at the meeting, is in favor of a terrace in preference to the wall.
