four eighteen-hole courses, through ali
of which winds Butterfeld creek. cAus-
ing as high as nine water hazards on
one course, Is considering a proposal
to stretch netting over the water where
it intercepts the fairways. This plan.
If adopted, would force the player to
lift hts ball and drop back with a PEN
atty of one stroke. the same as now.
except that without the net a player
is entitled, If he can, to play from the
aqueous hazard; but he would not lose
a dollar every time his ball fell short
in the creek.
Scheme Has Opponents.

ences when he sees his pellet sink from
view and will deny him the privilege
of playing from a shallow water lie,
covering himself with mud II not with
