U. S. RUBBER HAS NEWMESH MARKED BALLS

Innovation in golf balls i a new meshmarked golf ball introduced by Unit dStates Rubber Co. as an addition to its1953 golf ball line. Each mesh mark dgolf ball i cover d with an lectronicallysealed plastic covering that protects ituntil it is played.

In introducing the m sh marked golfball, U. S. Rubber revives a distinctivecover marking that was a favorit amonggolf r 25 years ago. Th 1953 mesh

mark d ball has the mod rn improve-ments of a silicone center and el ctronicwinding, to give long, true flight and uni-form performance. It has a tough, fully.ur d Cadwell cover that is highly resist-

ant to cutting and scuffing. It is improvedwith modern painting so it looks andtays whiter.The 1953 mesh marked ball i a legal

tournament golf ball that meet all re-quired specifications of the USGA.

John W. Sproul, sales mgr. of U.Golf Balls, says, "The mesh marked golfball looks slightly larger to the eye andappears to sit up better on the fairway.Preliminary tests indicate it gives slightlymore distance with the wind. It is longoff the tee, true in putting and very dur-able."

Sproul said that the new mesh markedball is being presented this season in theU. S. Royal Special, the U. S. Royal(Blue) and the U. S. True Blue brands.

The mesh mark d balls are being soldin distinctive new packaging, - an elec-tronically sealed plastic covering calledPlasti-Guard, which is exclusive withU. S. Rubber. In this packaging, eachball is covered 0 it can be separated forplay without disturbing the protectiveseal of the oth r balls.

"The plastic covering," Mr. Sproul said,"protects each ball not yet played, frombecoming dirty in the golf bag, in thpocket, or in the locker. The balls do notdiscolor as quickly because they are pro-tect d from direct light and air."
