Life seems pretty good to me now that I'm to play against all the best | American golfers at Oakmont. It's s big adventure. Strange things can happen to me on American courses, but they’ll have to be amazing to sur- prise me after some of my experiences in South Africa. I've played under all conditions. The courses range from championship elubs of the best type, like Houghton, Johannesburg, my present club, to the crude nine holes in the “dorps,” which is Afrikaans for village or hick town. In the bigger places, like Cape Town, the courses are excellent. But out through the country you strike lhe‘ weirdest little courses. Often I have, in my tours, played the best ball of as many as five or six of the best p]a)en some “dorp” club could turn out on | fantastic nine-hole courses over ant heaps and rocks. S where lcng droughts make grass | greens impossible use Kimberley | blue sand, taken out of the famous Kimberley diamond mine. The sand is crisp and does not stick to the ball. When you get used to the pace the course is so dead true you can sink putts from all distances. On the country courses snakes are common, and they set the woman players squawking. One day at the Durban Country Club I put a ball off the line at the ninth, and when I at- tempted to play out of the high grass | in the rough I shattered the head o! a ringhals, which is a type of cob: Just as well for me I kept my head | down with that mashie niblick shot. Snakes Are a Hazard. OME of the courses in dry regions ‘This kind of thing certainly ought . to teach you to keep in the fairway. On some Durban courses the chief hazards are monkeys. At Isipingo, on the South Coast, and at Beachwood they have undulating fairways. Some- times a fellow smacks a long brassie | over the rise and on to the green, only to find the ball gone when he gets there. The monkeys take them. At Nelspruit the little course borders @ river. It's a lost ball if you get there, and maybe a lost caddie too, because the crocodiles are waiting by the river banks. Once, when I was playing in a championship at Hume- wood, Port Elizabeth, I saw a ball be- ing taken away by a tortoise. O YOU can guess that it will take a lot to perturb me on American courses. Of course, not all golf in South Africa is of this rough-and-ready type. ‘We have some outstanding profes- sional players, both South African born and “importations” like my brother Jock and myself, from Eng- | land and Scotland. Recently some really outstanding amateurs have been developed and I think they could hold their own with the best English and American amateurs. I have won the South African open | Brecious Kink. : !

LL THE fuss about qualification rounds for membership on the team to face the Japanese | on June 2. a little matter | which has set the golf pros in the | Middle Atlantic P. G. A. back on | their ears for some weeks, was cleared up today with announcement by President Al Treder that there will | be no Middle Atlantic team, as such, in the matches at Kenwood early in June. In place of a team Tepresenting | the entire area from Virginia to Maryland, a six-man outfit represent- ing only the Washington area with one exception will face the Nipponese on June 2. The Baltimore professionals will have a private little scrap with the Orientals on June 27, over a course near Baltimore. Thus, with one clever administrative stroke, Treder has wiped out all the controversy that has been going on quietly among the pros for some ‘weeks. Compete for Opportunity. HIS controversy involved the au- tomatic_qualification of Bobby Cruickshank, top ranking pro golfer of this sector, and also involved the possibility that Roland MacKen- zie, Congressional pro, and one of the more colorful figures in the game around Washington, might be left off the team without a shot at qualifica- tion. The set-up now is that on May 6, the Washington pros will gather at Kenwood to play 36 holes, with the best five scorers winning places on the team, which will clash with the Japa- rese on June 2. The Baltimore pros will work out the details of their match themselves, and no longerwill the affair be one for the Middle Atlantic P. G.
