Wade Ritter has donated a tennis
net to the Dornick Hills Country
Club. The new asphalt court recent
ly completed is a thing of beauty,
and this new net was very much
needed, and the members appreciate
the kindness of Mr.. Ritter very much.
p. d. Maxwell and John Dexter
went to rallas Friday to be present
at the tournament of the Southern
Golf Association, which was held dur
ing last week.
Number six is the most beautiful
green on the course. With its gently
sloping hills, it takes a great deal
of skill to sink some of the puts
as they present themselves.
One of the local golfers was tell
ing Miller, the professional, the other
day that he had been using a putter
for the drive on number eight, sta
ting that he got better results with
that club than with any other, use
your mashe or midiron," said Miller,
you may do a little better with a
putter, but that isn't golf"
The links the past week have
been very popular. Every afternoon
large number took advantage of
the pretty weather to enjoy a So
ciable game. The course is now in
better shape than it has ever been,
thanks to the energetic work of Pres
ident Maxwell and the directors.
The grass on the fairways is kept
short, and the green's are in better
shape than they have ever been.
Water is now being connected TO
each green.
1t is matter of surprise to local
golfers that so few of the women of
Ardmore have taken up golf. The
reason is hard to fathom. Golf is
healthful exercise, and, while diff
cult to master, the women have the
satisfaction of knowing that they
get as much exercise as the men,
and should not let a little thing like
a huge score deter them. But
there are a number of ladies who
play often, and are very enthusiastic
golfers. That it is possible for
them to make low scores is not doubt
ed. Last Friday one lady made num-
Der eight in three,-and it is not
every man golfer who can do that.
Probably the most unpopular golf
er in the world is one who has a
tendency to forget about half of his
strokes Those who play with him
are usually too polite to question his
remarkably low score. Wonder if
this kind of player is merely absent
minded or really dishonest?
; Another kind of low-score maker
is the man who surreptiously tees
his ball with his club when his OPP
ponent happens to be looking the
other way. The rules say that
player is not supposed to touch or
move his ball or improve his lie.
