St. Andrews Decides
Against Adopting
u. ). Golf Code
BY the Assoeiased Press

ST. ANDREWS. Scotland. Sept.
1.-THE Royal and Ancient Golf
Club decided today against adoption
of the American code, including the
stymie pickup rule. which was in
troduced by the United States Golf
Association March l this year.
Dominion golf authorities and the
golf unions in Britain were consulted
some time ago to get their recation,
members noted after the meeting.
and the rule of Golf Committee
based its recommendation for reten-
ton of the British stymie rule on
the replies received.
The new American rule, which
permits ball lying within inches
Of the hole and in the line of putt to
be lifted, no matter how far away
the other ball lies, did not receive
much support, the informants said,
and there was little desire for total
abolition of the stymie.
The meeting agreed the USGA's
grouping together Of rules for match
and stroke play was a progressive
step and approved steps now in
progress to revise the r and AS
rules, but no details were disclosed.
The meeting decided the 1s4s
British Amateur would be held at
Portmarnock, thus allocating it for
the first time to Ireland.

A 755 duckpin team game, the
highest ever bowled over Capital

stood to the credit of the Spring
Road Cafe quint of the Penn

Scorching the Penn mapleways
