HURTS

COLI Professor. Rack Creek Park
In teaching the drive. ! try to
emphasize on the pupil the neces-
sity Tor getting everything into
th6 drive. There is entirely too.
much stiff.arming' of the ball.
/ mean BY that that the player
simply stiffens his arms and shout
ders. ana hits the bail with his
hands and not his shoulders.
Relaxing on all shcts~is the most
important thing to do. Most golfers
make hard work out OF playing the
game. Try Just simply hitting the.
ban. Forget everything but direc.
on and let the club 80 back

Even as Bobby Jones round OF
10 was his lowest for 4 first round
in any Of the national champion
ships, so his % Is the hiSheaf he
has ever returned. IT included two
penalty strokes, one for lifting q
water hazard. and another called
by himself because his ball moved
as he Was addressing 1t on the
fifteenth.
The other penalty accrued m the
tenth hole. y Jones drive faded into
the rough to the right OF the fair
way and came to rest on rock
retaining wall at the foot Of which
ran 4 small brook recognized as q
water hazard. An important ques.
ticR ot riiles was brought up and
w. G.. FpWnes, president Of tlle
United States Golf Association. was
called in to rule on the cas-.
!, The point in question was
IAically IS considered 10 be IN the
water hazard, since the stone wall
wa6 built there % shore up the
hank Of the creek. III such
event. the BAN could be lifted with
penalty Of one stroke. IL Il
were ruled that this wall Was not
part Of the water hazards then
the ball could Do lifted only on
the ground that it was Mnpsay'
able, which would mean > perl
atty Of two strokes. Babby Was
allowed to liik with penalty o.
3 single stroke.
Willie Hunter had funny ex-
perfence on the short seventeenth.
His tee shot Just tricixled off the
edge Of the green into q creek that
4sirts the left Of the green and
flows around behind it. After lift.
ing, the question was raised
whether he should be allowed to
drop on the green side of the ditch
or not.
None present appeared to be GER
tain of just what should be done.
So Hunter dropped on the neiir
side, Clipped up and holed a short
putt for his 4. Then TO play. safe
no crossed the ditch, dropped back
Dt it, pitched on and holed . con-
siderably longer putt for another 4.
This ssaved any controversy as 70
where he was entitled to drop.
The wind worked some unusual
results. particularly on the second
nine holes. After picking mp 2
penalty at the tenth, Bobby Jones
went to the eleventh tee and, with
thN wind at his hack, drove iiito 2
trap just short OF the green. This
hole measures $50 Yards. That
poke was good for SIS yards or
more. ~

OIL ABOUT STATE
ARE INCREASING

Considerable activity in oil de-
velopment circles has been mani
tested during the past several
weeks both in northern, central
and southern Arizona.
At Bowie last Tuesday, it is re-
ported that oil in paying quantities
has been encountered and prepara-
tions are being made to shut off
the water and bring in a producer,
although how big this will be has
not yet been determined. The find
ing of oil at an approximate depth
of $500 feet will mean that consid-
erable other drilling activity in the
Cochise county field will result,
both around Bowie, Wilcox and
Benson.
In Northern Arizona, drilling in
the Adamana well, south of Hol-
brook and Winslow, is still in pro-
gress in an effort to sidetrack the
old casing and reach the former
depth, where the owners of the well
are positive the oil sands were
reached before the casing was lost
during a cementing job. Several
blowouts of oil and gas have oc-
Cured within the past two months,
the management claims and they
are positive that oil exists in COM
mercial quantities.
In the same area the Taylor
Fuller well this week received a
large shipment of nitroglycerine
and arrangements are being made
to bring experts from the Califor-
mia field to shoot the well, believ-
ing that oil in producing quantities
has been encountered
Last week Winslow parties who
have been in close touch with the
exploration of the Canyon Diablo
project northwest of Winslow
which is to soon be prospected by
two of the largest oil concerns in
the country, report that plans are
going forward to start drilling at
the earliest possible moment on the
Babbitt land holdings, following
the report of two eminent geolo-
gists who have been sent here to
report.
It is known that a number of
scouts from different parts of the
country have already been sent to
the field, since the first reports of
the proposed drilling were sent out.
But very little is being made public
regarding the prospect, but own
ers of acreage near WinslOw are
confident that actions to prove the
field. which it is claimed covers one
of the largest pools in the country,
will be taken at once.
