It _i5 situated 10 miles from the city . and has a station which was spe- ~ clally built by the Canadian Pa- 'Railway to serve its members. ere are no natural hazards of ular note; the land is undn- g and winding creeks cross the championship fairways some eight or ten times; many stately elm trees separate the falrwavs and mark the boundaries of the To a casual observer the Sum- merlea course looks to he an easy one to play. In its construction. however, Willie Park, Seottish golf architeet used all his skill (and he was 8 master of his craft). It has been the scene of the Canadian ssional tournament and was chosen as one of the two courses in Eastern Canada over which the English Walker Cun team played when they visited Canada some ? ago. It is an indication of difficult nature to note that at time of the Canadian Profes. nal tournament, par of the purse was only equalled ance in e 162 games played. In fact, its r has only been broken three es in its history, once by the , Michael Scott at the time of the Walker Cup team visit, hnece by its own professional, Jock Brown, and once hv an amateur member, Claude Villiers. i Details of the course follow: +/No 1, 500 yards, par 6.

A creek crossing and paralleling the fairway on the right, with woods to the left and stately elms narrowing the fairway 260 yards from the tee to half its width, The first stroke must be carefully play- ed to open up this gateway to the green. The second must be straight and long. If short, the sharply sloping falrway assists the ball to a watery grave on the right.

This is flanked on both sides hy large traps. No, 10, 345 yards, par 4. Here the creek which has up ta now awaited a slice, lies in wait for a pull.

A boundary runs close to the fairway on the right almost the full length of the hole. A trap lies close ahead on the right and another at the end of a long bail on the left.

LINE Ottawa, July 31.--The Board of Railway Commissioners today hand- ed down a judgment approving the route map showing the revised gen- eral location of the Canadian Paci- fic Railway's Swift Current north- westerly branch, which projects construction from Willingdon, Alta, in a general southwesterly direction to Strathcona, near Ed- monton. In delivering the judgment, Hon. H. A. McKeown, Chief Com- missioner, details the history ol the construction of the company's branch lines, and notes the ob- jection of the counsel of the Cana- dian National Railways that this would be really an extension of the Cut Knife-Whitford Lake hranch, for which, the National lines con- tend, the Canadian Pacific has not obtained Parliamentary &u- thority, PROT GREATLY BY: LAST SWIN aa In Complete Way (By Canadian Press) Toronto, Aug. 2.--More than a quarter of a million people are expected to attend each of the Wrigley marathon swims at the Canadian National Exhibition om August 29 and September 5. Ex- hibition officials, preparing for the races which will decide the world's professional swimming champion- ship, are making arrangements for a crowd of 500,000 on the two days. In 1927, the paid attendance to the Exhibition on the day of the swim was 222,000. This year the mass of people viewing the mara- thons is expected to be even larg- er. Changes in the rules govern- ing the contests have been intro- duced with the comfort of the crowds in mind. Last year the course stretched twa miles out in the lake which made the competi. tors invisible to the watchers on shore after they had passed out beyond the sea wall The distance has been shortened for this year's races to 10 miles for the first event, in whieh only wo- men will compete, and 15 miles for the title event in which all men and the five best women will he entered. While the exact courze has not heen finally laid opt it will be much smaller than the 7 mile triangle of last year with tne result that the swimmers will he almast constantly in view from the 'be wile and a half sea wall and slop- ing lawns behind, which proviue a patural grandstand for thousands upon thousands of spectators. Every swimmer in the race will be accompanied by a doa: pla- carded with the emtramt's number in figures two or three feet high. These can easily be read from shore and the competitor's iaen- tity known at omce. In addition, a battery of loud speakers in the park will be used to give a running account of the race as it progresses and these can heard clearly for almost a quarter of a mile. This feature, it is understood, will be handled as it was last year when an announg- er on the press boat broadcasts the story of the swim through a short- wave transmitting set. This was picked up by a receiver on spore and sent out through the loud speakers and a number of radio stations. Between 600 and 1,000 officials will be required to handle the races, including policemen, medi- cal attendants and those in direct charge. At every turn in the course a crew of scorers will be stationed to mark the time of each swimmer as he passes. With each entrant is an official observer who has power to disqualify his com- petitor for any infraction of the rules. In the boat, too, is an oars- man and the swimmer's manager or coach, Observers will not be assigned to their boats until = few minutes before the races start 10 Simeone St. 8.

As in 1927, the swimmers will start from a line of barges anchor- ed between the shore and the sea wall and then race the full length of Exhibition Park in direct view of the thousands in the crowds. Last year, 299 entrants took to the water. Some, however, were more optimistic than able and two of them shouted for help before 500 yards of the 21-mile grind had been completed. It will be the endeavor of the Exhibition offilals to eliminate this type of entrant as far as is compatible with fairness A large Canadian entry list is sought but the main idea will he to cut the total number and make the battle as close as possible. Already upwards of 200 swim- mers are on the entry lists, which close an August 15. Thev repre- sent 22 nationalities. There Is, this year. an unusually heavy re- nresentation from Quebec and from Northern Ontario as well as Aus- tralia. A purse of $15,000 1s to be dis- tributed to competitors in the wo- men's race, $10,000 going to the winner and the remainder being split between the next four to fin- ish the 10-mile stretch. These five women prize winners, along with the men, start a week later in the 15-mile grind. Here, the first place award is $25,000, with $10,000 being divided be- tween the five finishing behind the leader, Circulation PLANE NOSE-DIVES THREE ARE HURT Machine Strikes Airpocket and Crashes at Revere, Mass.
