Nineteenth Hole In
Mexico Just Over

There is a golf course In
Nogales, Ariz., which is becom-
ing popular. 1t is the only golf
course in this country which
has a legitimate nineteenth
hole. The course is, laid out in
the desert and consists of nine
holes. There is q lot of sand,
and it is not an easy course to
play. 1t is also very hot down
that way, and when a player
has played around twice he is
usually in q state of very low
visibility.
The last green is situated
close to the border. Just over
the line the nineteenth hole has
been built. It is a great biz
hole made Of concrete and Is
used to receive the golf bags
of the players as they finish
their rounds. Near by is an
attractive little house with great

something like $40 per game. A
slight acceleration of this pace

merely tell whether the Yankees
won or lost. and If our Mr.. Ruth
INDUCES himself to the extent Of a
home run the fact is mentioned
quite casually. They have begun to
teke him for granted. which is well.
Quietly but efficiently, our George

ball on the toe. Avoid pulling over
the direction line at the ball.
There is one thing OF which ! am
absolutely certain, and that Ia that
the hands cannot be the center of
a circle for they must make a
little circle OF their own. The med.
ium upright swing is what you
