Members of the newly organized golf club met in the city hall Monday evening and elected officers. Jake Herbel was elected as the chairman. Dr. Franklin Harms was elected secretary. The grounds and greens committee is Herbert Friesen, Ralph Herdt, Edmumd Scharping, Bill Smith, and Tony Knak.
Membership dues for the Golf Club have been set at $10. One of the rules of play is that the course is closed from 10 a.m. to noon on Sunday. The course is not entirely completed due to the fact that part of the ground has been in grain and was just recently harvested. Several holes have been laid out.
