•Frits Hensel,
chairman, C. G. “Spike" White,
and Joe Fagan was appointed i by
Chancellor Gib Gilchrist to make
tentative plans for this 18-hole
poupse. : 'V \
| Out of the total $76,000 appro
priated, $25,000 has been schedul*
.d for rennovating the horse’bam
Into a clubhouse. Odd as it may
seem, tije horse barn can be adapt
ed very ehsily into a top-notch
.lubhoifse w»th lockers, showers, a
snack bar, and offices.
j Ralph IMumhter, a golf course
architect, wh^l has designed and
regreened oyer 10 top courses
in Texas alone, has aided in the
planning of the course. He esti
mated that the cost for the con
struction of the course can be
kept down by utilizing college
machinery, labor and supervi-
sioa. ,;
It is planned that F. W- Hensel,
.ibad of-the Care and Maintenance
jf grounds, and the head of the
landscape Arts Department, will
jdn^trucit the course under Plum-
iper’s supervision. The only addi
tional equipment needed other than
hat already on hand is a heavy-
Ij
duty bulldozer, [which will be rent
ed from a contractor.}!
Once completed, the cost of op
eration will be covered by a mini
mum green fee, golf shop sales,
and snack bar operations.
Two weeks ago I toured the lay
out shown above, and I can safely
say that it will be one of the pret
tiest, and toughest, courses in the
state when completed. There are 18
holes, par 70, with a total length;
of 6,860 yards.
Streams, ditches, trees, bluffs,
sloping terraces, and other natural
hazards will no doubt furnish play
ers with an ample workout of their
strokes and vocabularies. /

is one of the hardest on the. lay

Preliminary j|4*ns call for
working and seeding of the fair
ways to start as soon as the arc
can be cleared.
1 j H ; i \
The major obstacle; to be worked
out is the water supply for the
dry summer months.
Either shallow concrete storage
pits will be supplied by shallow
wells, or the College supply will be
used if expanded as anticipated-
Another hurdle to be passed be
fore wprk may start in earnest is
the obtaining of the h orse barn.
An area has been set aside for the
horses across the railroad tracks,
but no shelter has been started for
the prize studs now housed in the
horse barns. P
The plowing and, seeding of the
fairways . will take about four
months to complete.
