PROPOSAL REJECTED.
No Municipal Golf Links for Spreydon. The Reserves' Committee of the Christchurch City Council has been unable to see its way clear to give effect at present to a proposal to establish municipal golf links in the Spreydon district. The scheme was advanced by the Spreydon Burgesses, Association, which suggested that the Spreydon shingle pit, of 15 h acres, should be used for the links, together with two other disused shingle pits of the same area which should be purchased. It urged that arrangements should be made for the use of an adjoining property owned the Cashmere Estate, containing forty-five acres. The committee understood that the shingle pit was to be used for other municipal purposes, and was of opinion that the cost of acquiring the adjoining shingle pits, together * ith the use of the property owned by the Cashmere Estate, and the laying out of the area for golf, would be prohibitive.
