Description
There is a record in the National Archives of the Public Works Administration (PWA) funding the construction of a golf course at the Arizona State Teachers College in Tempe (now the Arizona State University). It is unclear what kind of golf course is meant and where it was located, and the picture shows students putting behind a campus building – not a golf course at all. There was a true golf course built northeast of the ASU campus, but apparently much later. Further information is needed to verify the history of this golf course.
