OCTOBER 20, 1928. T AR PAC NEW GOLFING CLUB IS ORGANIZED BY SEATTLE LINKS PLAYERS *) ashington Club Takes Site South of Seattle Nine Holes Being Planned ‘by Victoria, B. C., Golf Architect; 18 Holes to Be Established Later On; | Plans Announced W:? SHINGTON Golf and Country Club! Never heard of it! Well, with golf courses springing up in mush- roomlike fashion hereabouts it is not surprising that this latest addition to Seattle’s list of links has gone unnoticed until this announcement, Oh, y this new club is right in our midst and within the next three or four weeks the con- tract will be awarded for the building of the course, That's how close Seattle is to launching her 10th golf course, which for the time being, will be known as the Washington Golf and Country club. The site upon which this new rendezvous for golfers will be built, is McKinley Hill, seven miles from Pioneer Square, and just outside of the south end of the city limits, Part the property skirts the new Thompson Highway, which anches off the Des Moines Boulevard at a point just a few ards from the Hamm Creek bridge, and commands a fine view of the city. Only a distance of some 200 yards seper- | ates the properties of the Rainier Golf and Country club and the Washington Golf and 5 Country club. . t [ Golf Gossip BLKS ANNUAL Before going into any more de s regarting what is going to be © on that McKinley Hill location.

This work, of ‘ourse, will be done in accordance with the plans drawn up by Macan. The length of this nine-hole journey will be about 3,400 yards. The clubhouse, the site for which has not been selected as yet, will be built on the “unit” plan, and will grow with the ciub. For the present, the structure will be just large.enough for practical purposes. Everything is all set _to go and at a meeting of the board last ‘Thursday, a campaign for members wag started.
