Authorizing two minor sports credits for golf, Clarence B. Van Wyck, Secretary to the Department of Physical Education, has officially launched Harvard's newest team. Negotiations have been completed with the Oakley Country Club for a special forty dollar membership to take effect immediately and to run through Labor Day.
Frederick F. Lamont, Jr. '48 and Gordon P. Reed '48, originators of the new organization, have announced that the course is only 12 minutes from Harvard Square by subway. If present plans are completed, the group will play nine holes a day as often as the members are able to make the trip to Oakley.
In spite of the small early turnout, Reed and Lamont hope to produce a team that will be able to stand up in competition with nearby colleges and service camps. No membership limit has been fixed by the club.
