Keene, N. H.—A new tee, the "Bonnie" is presented by the Granby Mfg. Co., mak-ers of the Peg celluloid tee. The tee sells for 10c a box and is made to show good value with its appearance. A reasonable percentage of pro profit is allowed. The Granby people counsel the pro not to ease up on the sale of first class tee leaders at 20c a box, but with the "repression" on folks are hunting for low prices to meet the situation with a dime seller that's good value.

P. A. Vaile, research genius, diagnosti-cian and writer on golf play, comes out with a new invention, the Anti-Slicer. It is an instruction device, intended, as Vaile says, "to prevent the golfers of the world from doing what they have been consistently and persistently instructed to do up to this year of grace 1932."

He writes of the device and its function: "The downward portion of the stroke is

of basic importance in golf and those who write about and teach the game have al-

Chicago, 111.—Fred Gardner, for several years a member of the Illinois State Ath letic commission, and a veteran figure in amateur athletics, has gone with the Wil-son-Western Sporting Goods Co. as special

representative. In this new connection he will contact pro and amateur golfers, among his other duties.

Gardner's prominence in athletics dates back to the 90's when the Chicago Athletic association had its famous amateur foot-ball team numbering Gardner as one of its stars. He is one of the "old settlers" in mid-western golf having taken up the game as a member of the old Washington Park club which passed out of existence years ago. Later he joined Midlothian, Flossmoor and Olympia Fields, the latter being his present club affiliation. As a member of Olympia's board he represented the club in arranging for the 1928 Open.

S ILVER K I N G OFFERS FREE TRIPS T O S C O T L A N D 1

New York City.—Some pro who keeps his eye on the new construction Silver King golf ball, is going to be awarded by John Wanamaker a free trip for a week's golf at St. Andrews and Gleneagles, Scot-land, with all expenses paid from his home and return.

The new "K ing " is constructed with a patented inner lining between the cover r

and the core, which is said by makers to give it 7 to 12 yards more distance than ever before. John Wanamaker wants to find out how many strokes this extra yard-age reduces the score of the average play-er, on what particular holes the player benefits from this extra distance, and why?

They want every professional to answer these questions for his own course. The answer selected by the judges of this con-test as the best will win the free trip to St. Andrews. This particular prize is open only to professionals in the mainland of the United States.

Anyone interested in golf, living in the mainland of the United States, can enter a second contest, which offers a free trip for two persons to St. Andrews, for the individual submitting the slogan, or de-scription, which is chosen by the judges to be the best reason why the patented lining in the new Silver King gives this extra 7 to 12 yards distance.

This offer is a novel way of introducing the patented new feature in this year's Sil-ver King and should attract great interest among the pro's customers.

Joe Novak, Bel-Air C. C. (Los Angeles district) recently rated by a syndicate golf writer as fifth among the world's leading golf instructors, but who is a star instruc-tor nevertheless, is an ardent advocate of movies in golf instruction.

Writing to Charley Ziebarth, sec. of Bell & Howell, makers of Filmo movie equip-ment, Joe tells of an elderly doctor from Nevada who recently visited Bel Air. Joe says there is no pro at the small wild-west course from which the medico hailed, so the doctor and his friends have been rely-ing on movie instruction. The doctor, a man in his 60's, shot Bel Air in 92 as his initial round on a championship course.

Novak points out that the amateurs who can get interested in movie instruction be-come the best customers.

N E W C O M B I N A T I O N LOCK FOR GOLFERS ' USE

Chicago, 111.—Dudley Lock Corp. has de-veloped a combination lock device insuring maximum safety and privacy for locked locker contents. The new lock is self lock-ing and the user is protected against his own negligence. It is easy to forget to turn the dial after closing a combination, but with the new Dudley device it is not neces-sary. The shackle is pushed into the lock case—the rest is automatic. The lock locks itself and at the same time the dial (or knob) springs to a new point, thus dis-guising all clue to the combination.

In country clubs, sometimes, the outer locker is made accessible to the locker boy or service man so that he may replace clothing or cleaned shoes. In such cases a different combination can be used for the inner compartment.
