II is difficult matter 10 SIT here at
desk and coach a player IN the field by
means of absent treatment on how to play
golf.
Golf Is a great game. but, personally,
we are not as enthusiastic over it as We
used to be. IT may be good exercise to
bat small white bah over an iS-hoie

you have to pack along an arsenal OF

yourself liable TO arrest by the Society

fort to find lost ball and find green
snake instead.
when we first began 20 play golf we
bought balls by the crate. Like Rocky

We haze enough lost golf balls planted
