Between the sturdy golfer who fol-
lows the red ball thru the snow on
northern links and the thousands who
journey to more moderate climes,
Evans estimates that about half OF
Americas golfers continue play dur
ing the frigid months. Golf courses
have been built by scores in the south
ern and Pacific coasts until some 300
semi-,ropica! links now await tire in
gress of winter players.
From Plnehurst, not far south OF the
Mason and Dixon line, on the Atlantic,
these winter links form n U-shaped
string down to Florida. west to San
Diego and north to Seattle. The great
est growth in recent years has been
in Texas where a friendly but spirited
contest WAS waged for supremacy
among fast growing cities of the cot
ton and oil belts.
The hegira to winter golf meccas
used To be confined largely to Florida
and southern California but Mississippi
and Louisiana soon got in the swim
