Women's Club

Most skilled women golfers have found that skirts do not interfere with their game. But many a female duffer has taken to knickerbockers ("knickers") in hopes that they will improve her game, give her freedom of swing, etc. Men have snickered at women in knickerbockers, have said that they looked ridiculous waddling around the links.

Perhaps it was such masculine jibes that led certain ladies of the Illinois Women's Athletic Club in Chicago to announce last week the founding of the Illinois Women's Golf Club--for women only. It will have all the facilities of a first-class club, plus a nursery "where babies and husbands may be checked." Gentlemen will be allowed to use the links only on Fathers' Day and on July 4.
