GOLF PLAY AT NIGHT
NOW SEEMS FEASIBLE
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 1.-THE
golf fiend whose chief regret in life
is that he cannot crowd enough day
light hours into his time on the links
may derive some solace in the claim
of Milard J. Boomer. a golf enthu-
siast and managing director of the
American Airways Corporation, that
he has invented an illuminated golf
ball that makes playing at night not
only practicable but pleasure.
Bloomer put his invention to a
practical demonstration recently on
the Mosholu course in damp weather
and played eight balls on the first
and eighteenth holes. All were recov
cred from the drives and played out
to the cup in darkness.
Millard explained that the balls are
treated with a chemical and wrapped
in tinfoi until used. The illumina
ton lasts for approximately IS min
utes after the balls are removed from
the foil.
