Room for Two Eighteen-hole Golf Courses on New Site of Oak Hill Club; One Links Ready in 1924 The new site of the Oak Hill Country Club about 7 1-2 miles from the center of the city between East and Monroe avenues was laid out by nature as an ideal golf course in the rough and can be made one of the best in the country, according to Donald Ross, of Boston, an expert golf-links architect who is to lay out the new course for Oak Hill. Austin F.

Crittenden, real estate agent who is handling the deal, said yesterday that there are about ten options involved and that the cost of the 300 acres would range from $125,000 to $150,000. This site was chosen from at least a hundred proposed. The University of Rochester is to buy the land and lay out the course, presenting property to the Oak Hill Club for exchange for its property near Genesee Valley Park which is to be the site of the greater university. Room for Two 18-Hole Courses. Mr.

Crittenden said that about half of the club members had visited the new site and he had not heard of a single instance of dissatisfaction with the choice. He happened on the site by chance, he said, a very favorable spot. It took him five months to negotiate with those who own or control the properties, and to get options, he said. Mr. Ross was so enthusiastic over the site that was largely on his statements that the entire club voted to take it.

it, There is room enough for two eighteenhole courses. Only one will be laid out at first and if the club membership grows greatly beyond its present roll of about four hundred, as is expected, it is thought another eighteen holes will be laid out. The present Oak Hill course takes up about 100 acres. There are plenty of hills on the site, lying in three rolls of ground running from north to south, and incidentally, it will not be necessary to alter or amend the club name, for there are plenty of onks about as well as hills. There is a sizeable creek winding over the property, which is tributary to Allen's creek and there are two or three small feeders to this creek.

Excellent spring water will be available for piping from two springs and there is also a spring of sulphur water that is pungent with peculiar odor and health qualities. Plenty of Natural Hazards. The property does not extend to East avenue, excepting for 8 drive. It is planned to place the clubhouse on two hills which lie close together and toward East avenue form a sort of plateau that can be used for parking space. The club- house will be about 2,000 feet from East avenue and will face to the west.

From its veranda practically entire course may be seen. Directly before the house site, but quite a few rods away is the piece of magnificent woods covering twenty-eight acres that is included in the property. These woods are filled with giant beech trees and bass-wood trees and the woods are in as good condition as some of the well cared for forest preserves in the Adirondacks. In front of the woods lies the creek. It is expected first hole will be to the northwest the natural clubhouse.

hazards and There will excellent be chances plenty of of losing balls and keeping up the score. To acquire this site Mr. Crittenden had to negotiate a number of real estate deals. He expects all I the deals will be closed by about June 1st. All of Nelson P.

Sanford's property, which stretehes from East avenue west for some distance, is to be acquired. To get parts of the necessary Heydweilder and Light farms, he had to agree to give Grafton Johnson, out-of-town agent, the East avenue frontage of the Sanford tract. A cash consideration also will be given by Mr. Johnson, who deals in building lots. The only buildings to be torn down are the farmhouse and barn belonging to Heyd- weilder.

To Be Ready in Spring, 1924. Frederick K. Knowlton, Rochester manufacturer, owned about twenty-two acres in L-shape in the heart of the proposed site and he did not wish to sell. ite had a stock farm. When he learned, that his property was neceshowever, sary to round out the club site he willingly agreed to exchange it for property further north, and Mr.

Crittenden had great edness. The commendation for his public Irondequoit Country Club. the course is only one removed, had a piece of undeveloped property property comprising three acres which it exchanged plow give Mr. Knowlton a part of his piece. Simon Stein acted for the club.

Mr. Crittenden said that from 1,200 to 1,500 feet fronts on Monroe avenue, a part of the Hackett property, which he believes will ultimately be disposed of by the club. Mr. Ross, when he looked over the ground, said the land could be turned over next spring fertilized and seeded. It would then require about 8 year of work to smooth it out and lay out the holes, but he thought it ought to be ready to be played on by the spring of 1924.

Under the options the present property holders are not to be disturbed this rear. French Giant Vies with Circus as Drawing Card at Lalla Rookh Show; Performances Come to End To-night The circus and carnival being held at Exposition Park by Lalla Rookh Grotto will close to-night. There will be performances and dancing this afternoon and evening. Last evening the attractions were tended by crowds well up to the record. The largest crowd of the nine days is expected this evening.

Although it was somewhat cooler last night than on previous evenings there liberal patrontage of the outdoor attractions, rides and various entertainment doing a steady business throughout the evening. It was nip and tuck between the 018 and the French giant, Captain Eugene Arceau, to see which would enterlain the most spectators. At a late hour the honors appeared to be even, each having exhibited to capacity crowds. Early in the evening a number of the performers were noticeably grouchy and hadn't slept well. When anylooked a bit haggard, as thoushe they thing bad gone wrong, one of them replied that the giant had awakened and startled everyone in the car with him by giving such a terrific sneeze that the 30 anyone else from getting to windows rattled, and then had snoring like a fog horn the remainder of the night.

Inside buildings 4 and 5, the booths which offered dolls, metal ware, blankets, canary birds, candy and other articles, attracted large numbers and many of these articles were carried home by spectators. A feature to-morrow evening will be the closing of the popularity contest, in. Youth, in Tears, Wins Court Over With Plea Promises to make restitution and to resume a life of industry instead of idleness and wrongdoing saved Carl Vosburgh, 17 years old. living in Reynolds street. from being committed to Randall's Island when he was arraigned in City Court yesterday.

Realizing that he was in a fair way to be severely punished, young Vosburgh begged for another chance, and tears came Into his exes as be promised Judge William C. Kohlmetz that he would go to work on a farm and pay back $8 a month to Mrs. Margaret Redding. of No. 540 Plymouth avenue south, until the $100 he stole from her was restored.

The Court was impressed by the youth's pleading and instead of committing him to Randall's Island he changed the sentence to six months in the penitentiary. Judgement was 819- pended and he was paroled for a year. Young Vosburgh was visibly pleased. "When boy arrives at the age of. 17 years," said Judge Kohlmetz, "he has reached a road that has two forks.

One leads to such places as Randell's Island. Auburn prison and the like: the other runs direct to honesty, uprighteousness, wholesome air and liberty. You are facing that fork, young man, and I'm going to give you chance to make good. You can if you will, and if you do right you will be glad of it, for then you can always face the world with your head up."
