while the other is the rebuilding

The green on sixteen has ever
been a source Of worry. The ur1-
usual construction OF 1t was be-
lieved responsible for the fact
that the grass wouldn't grow on
it properly. The remedy lay in
rebuilding it, so that is what was
done. Now a ridge or edge
around it will bring about the
desired result.
