Philadelphia golfers are determined te pet another public links willy-nilly. A bill te lny out another in the southern section of the city took the nes0 dive some months bnck. but business folks nre redoubling their efforts te get such a bill through Council. It is said that bill, pending before th cltv efficints, will be brought te light agnin shortly nnd thnt this time It will have mere backing. One reason is that the Seuth Phila delphia Business Men's Assoclntlen will be revived next week, und'enc of the first moves of the new body will be n vigorous campa'gn for a municipal golf course north of League Island nnd south of the residence district in thnt section. These interested have long protested the need of a public course for the Seuth Philadelphia section and arc out te get It. There nre nlse rumblings in the north eastern district nrnund Frankford. It is coming te a head with the organiza tion yesterdny of n school golf nssoeln nsseeln nssoeln tlen nt Frankford High Scheel. At the mass-meeting It developed thnt u team at the school would liave nt least 200 eand'dates. fifty of whom have played the game or rnddied. At present the boys hnve te de thplr practicing en n vacant let near the school, nnd thus the need of n course in the district hns been forcibly im pressed en pnrents and the business ns ns ns soelntlens in Frnnkferrl. One prominent resident predicted to day thnt it would net be long before Frankford would hnve Its public course. "The section is growing rapidly, nnd. with the sreutli of coif dnlly. hundreds i of demands nre being mnue out here for n golf course where we can piny or take up the gnme." The lone public course In Philadel phia, located nt Cob lis Creek, always bus been overcrowded. Thousands of emzens hnve no ether place te pluj.i New Yerk and Chicago have nbeut a j dozen courses between them. Phllndel- phin Is even far behind eltlcs llke To Te ledo nnd Buffalo, which have three or I four. "Give us mere public courses," is the sectional try here, "nnd tbe sooner the better."
