Golf-Link Floodlighting Proposal to Be Studied

The Municipal Golf Commission will study floodlighting for the Skylinks Golf Course east of Municipal Airport to allow year round use. City councilors, led by D Pat Ahern, expect the course to serve Douglas plant workers. They authorized a bid for 7 800 cubic yards of topsoil at about $16 000 and approved other public works including locker rooms near the baseball grandstand for $26 000 and a $9 200 pump station design for Long Beach Freeway terminus. A $7 730 purchase of a Crescent Avenue lot for the freeway terminus was also approved.

A Municipal Judge fined another $100 after state inspectors found 21 bottles of whisky and one bottle of wine adulterated with insects.
