Allen Oatman Allen ske vanced golf courses. Golf is a sport that can be played with proficiency by both sexes, and from the ages of 1@ @o 70. In this respect it probably is one of the widest and longest lasting fields of play of any athletic game. In addition, it has the longest carry-over of any game. Personally, I think the game ef golf should be given more emphasis at the University of Kansas, much as it has been in some of the other leading universities of the nation. Well, Glenn, I find myself going along with you one hundred percent so ftir as your and my desire is concerned with regard to golf participation here at the University. But the peculiar topography of Mount Oread does not lend to an enlargement of our golf course, even to nine holes. But I will let you in on a little secret. For years now I have been dreaming about an eighteen-hole golf course for the University but it cannot be on the campus. I envisage a University of Kansas golf course with play fields for tennis and ot&r eports with a club house similar to the Country Club. This may be five miles from Lawrence, but the time is coming when such a play field and golf course will be a part of the University. There are many people who believe that it is just as intelligent to endow such a play field for the students of the University of Kansas as it is to give a much-needed building. And I am working very definitely on that project. In your lifetime and mine we will see such a thing come to pass. The students will leave the campus and go out to this play field to re- create themselves physically, just as they train their minds under their instructors here on the campus. This will be an integral part of their education. Well, I am certainly glad to learn that, Doc. And that plan has already been carried out at Iowa State College. But of course they have ample acres adjacent to the college campus which has made it possible. At present they have one of the finest eighteen-hole courses in Iowa. It was laid out by Perry Maxwell, the same golf architect who laid ¢ut the new 18-hole course at the Lawrence Country Club. Next year's Big Six golf championship will be decided on that course. Getting back to the benefits from golf to the average student, I would like to make this observation, Since I am & booster for golf--that golf's emphasis on grace, coordination, headwork and self-scontrel, rather than on speed, power and wéight, fit it properly into a broad and helpful educational program. I also heartily agree with that, Glenn, that point is what we brought out in the early part of: our discussion regard- ing your handicap of under-poundage, which ordinarily would render you less liable to make a varsity letter in the sports of football or basketball, but which did not handicap you when it came to this grand old Sco#eh game of golf. And golf is on the increase everywhere. It is & pleasurable activity in which gentility and sportsmanship © ean reach their highest peak.
