 The rules of golf do not trouble | the average foursome very much. 1 Day in and day out the same com 1 hinations play together and the | partners and opponents adhere to a code that for the most part conforms l to the official rules.
 Usually however minor infractions occur and are accepted IS part Of the game and never penalized. Ordl- | narily these lapses make small diff ference but they are quite liable 10 be carried over into medal play tournaments. where the breaking of rules is unfair to the other con- | testants. I refer to such violations as grounding the club in hazards, push { ing away growing vegetation in the rough to get at the ball and failing to hole out the final putt. There is no intention of cheating for the average golfer Is as honorable an opponent as appears in any game. But he is not fully informed about 1 the rules.
 In fact the so-called expert can be tripped up on interpretations of the golfing code. It is very precise on many points and a bit obscure in places. There are 36 rules relating to single match play. 1 0 more cover ing three and four ball matches and 16 special rules for stroke play. And they are augmented by rulings. that
 have been made by the governing body of golf, which are seldom print
 ed in the rule book.
 Here is one that was reviewed
 last month. It involved the loss Of
 the hole by the ball striking the
 players caddy bag. Most everyone
 is aware of this penalty but who would think the rule applied under
 the following conditions? A tee shot went wild, hit tree and bounded
 back to the starting ground and was } stopped by the bag which was rest ing against the sand box.
 While 1t is uncommon for q play CT to be taken to task for a real violation of the rules. yet 1t is con- $ mon to hear the call Of two" when 3 he knocks his ball off the tee when { addressing it before his drive. But there is no penalty. for the ball is
 deemed not to be in play until 1t is
 hit from the teeing ground. - Under the same mistaken notion 2 that rule is being violated, a play. 2 CT praCticing before a match may 7 be called to account, It is his righr = to play or practice as much as he , chooses prior to q match, but IT
 medal play competition he would bt : disqualified.
 | During the next 12 months. tn, 1 question of a players right to us, f the new" ball in competition vii
 come up. Since the official ball a I present, must not be greater 1T ' weight than l.62 ounces and not les . than 1.62 ounces" and the 1881 bal {, is lighter and larger, 1t can h. = played before it becomes the off S cial golf ball.
