OPTICAL ILLUSIONS
HAVE QUEER EFFECT

Crowder, who has participated in
five National Opens, says there is
something about Canterbury which
is almost insidious.
Some of our members claim
we have holes that are optical illu-
sions when you sight them from
the tees" he points out. They
have queer psychological and
mental effect on you.
I've toured the course well
below par" says Crowder.
"but this Is the only layout
that I've never really whipped
since I've been playing golf.
