DIP NETS TO BE NEEDED
BY GOLFERS AT MANOR

Manor Club golfers soon will be
carrying dip nets i'm their golf bags.
When the new nine holes are put
into play, which will be shortly, No.
2 at Manor will be a water hole that
doubtless will bring much woe and
loss of many gutta percha pellets.
While the green will be only
about 135 yards from the tee, the
ball will have to carry fairly wide
expanse of water which will be
placed right i'm front of the put
ting surface in a lake that will con-
tain 100000 gallons of aqua pura.
This lake will be fed by five springs,
and there is no chance of it going
dry.
