not be half so fascinating as 1t is
Bunkers, traps, and rough along the
sides and at odd spots to penalize de-

fair green and out of traps has pest
chances for low scoring, but every
DIaver from time TO time visits the
trouble just to prove that he is human
The best players can re cover from
occasional difficulties as rule Win
very little loss in strokes
The average player looks upon DUN
kers and traps as unnecessary lmpeol-

scoring. One would naturally think
that bv reason of much experience ne
would become proficient in getting out
of them, but this does not follow as a
rule.

get safely out on the course with the
hope that a saved putt may equalIze
