A darkroom, while a handy addition to the photographic tool, is not essential to the successful employment of photog-raphy, provided that a local establishment will provide good and prompt developing and printing service. Indeed, in the com-plete absence of any photographic equip-ment, the need for photographs for any of the purposes outlined above can be great enough to justify employing a commercial photographer for the occasion. However, the greenkeeper should have clearly in mind just what pictures he wants, and how he wants them taken. He will find it ad-visable to discuss the whole project with the photographer before the latter gets to the course. Otherwise the photographer may go haywire on the pictorial possibili-ties of the layout and shoot off his weight in expensive 8 x 10's. Once properly briefed, he will produce valuable sugges-tions on angles and coverage.
One warning. Photography, a useful servant, has the insidious capacity to be-come a time- and money-wasting master. When the greenkeeper begins to spend more time on focuses than on fairways, more time on gadgets than on greens, then's the moment to drop the whole busi-ness. Don't give the bosses a chance to say, "Okay, Snaphappy, go peddle your pictures elsewhere!"

Age engine-driven golf course sprayers, with 4-gallon, 2-cylinder vertical pumps, are now being
produced by the A. B. Farquhar Co., York , Pa.
Pressure for thorough penetration of spray ma-
terial is provided by the 2-cylinder vertical pump ,
a new addit ion to the Iron Age line. Semi-en-
closed wi th a in. bore and a IV2 ¿n- stroke,
the p u m p delivers 4 gallons per minute at pres-
sures u p to 350 lbs. The p u m p is fitted wi th
hardened non-magnetic displacement tubes for
longer cup life. Special stainless steel, combined
with an exclusive finishing process, makes the
plunger tube finest obtainable. The pump's speci-
ally designed drive gear and p in ion , completely
enclosed and dust-tight, are cut on a precision
gear generator to assure perfect meshing of teeth
for exceptionally long life. A n air-cooled h.p.
engine is used to drive the pump . Four models of

MARK-IT IS USEFUL GIMMICK —R. R McKenzie Co., 524 E. Lomita St., Glendale 5, Calif., has a new gimmick combining a device for marking a ball on a green, marking the ball for identification, a knurled section to rough up grips of clubs and a metal pick to clean mud out of grooves in club faces. It looks to be an item that should sell strong in pro shops. It retails for Si.50. The device isn't much larger than a scor-ing pencil. Touching the device to the green leaves a small spot of neutral white powder mark-ing ball location in a way that's a great improve-ment over the customary method of marking with a coin or the scratching with a wooden tee.
H O G A N FEARS STALENESS—In a feature sports article spread, Life magazine for March 24 gave a study of Ben Hogan. Life termed Hogan "The best over-all golfer since little Bobby Jones retired from competition 17 years ago". The magazine pointed out that Hogan like Jones stands 5 feet 8 inches. That Hogan's concentra-tion and judgment "pay off" is cited by Life which said that in 1946 he was the biggest money winner in golf with $42,000 and this year may hit $75,000. "But", Life added, "Hogan has one constant worry, the worry of every professional golfer. At any time, for no explainable reason, he may suddenly go stale".

DIEGEL AND DANTE WRITE BOOK ON "9 BAD SHOTS"
J im Dante, who's been pres., N e w Jersey P G A
5 times, and Leo Diegel, twice P G A national
champion and 4 times Canadian Open winner,
have written in collaboration w i th Len Elliott,
sports editor, Newark ( N . J . ) Evening News,
"The 9 Bad Shots of Go l f—and what to do about
them."
McGraw-Hi l l Book Co., Inc., N e w York , pub-
lish the book which sells for $2.50.
J im and Leo, conceded by pros to be 2 of the
best teachers of the game, have done a very effec-
tive job in this book. They mainta in that there
are only 9 bad shots in go l f ; slicing, hooking,
topping, smothering, pul l ing, pushing, skying,
sclaffing and shanking. Diagnosis and correction
of the causes of these 9 faults constitute the major
part of the book. The rest of the book is devoted
to the correct grip and stance, the swing, iron
play, putt ing, play in rough and traps and on un-
even lies.
Al though this book is concerned mainly with
"straightening out" the player w h o has chronic
faults it is an excellent treatise for helping play-
ers who shoot from 85 up have a clear understand-
ing of what they should do r igh t—and why—as
well as explaining the cause and cure of their
troubles. It is a book that can be tied up closely
with expert pro personal instruction as its sets
forth what almost every other pro has shared with
Diegel and Dante in the problems of getting
pupils to understand the causes of their troubles
so clearly they won't s lump into hopeless confu-
sion and discouragement.

necessary than at the ordinary driving range. This illumination must be made to increase in intensity as the ball gets farther from the tee, a situation calling for a special lighting system.
Clusters of great floods totaling 90,000 watts and costing $12,000 were placed be-hind the lateral barriers at ground level. The lights are progressively more powerful as the distance increases from the tee until illumination on the ball is strongest at 200 yards. At that point the light begins to decrease.
The lateral barriers serve as protection for the lights behind them. They are con-structed of 20 gauge rabbit wire stretched on a wooden frame of two by fours, and covered with painted burlap.
The first three barriers will be lower on subsequent Hi-Ball Fairways to allow "grass cutters" to score. Fairway lights will be taken out of their bunches and spread evenly across the fairway. Two stories of concrete tee stalls and full set club-rentals are expected to double the "take" of the next Hi-Ball Fairways.

WESTERN SUMMARIZES CADDY WORK —Weste rn Go l f Assn., I l l W . Wash ing ton St.,

caddie encouragement, training and reward at golf
clubs by the W G A in a booklet recently issued.
The booklet also contains a record of the outstand-

championship records also are contained in the
book. The Western again is enlisting member

LOEFFLER RESIGNS AS PRO — Emil (Du t ch ) Loeffler, for 45 years at Oakmon t CC
(Pittsburgh dist.) has resigned from pro job he's
held since 1929 but wi l l continue as gkpr. He
started with the club as a caddie and became recog-
nized as one of the top men in course condition-
ing. Loeffler and the Fownes, father and son,
have constituted one of the most successful
greenkeeper-official teams in establishing a great
reputation for a course. Dutch was wounded in
Wor l d W a r 1 and on Oakmont 's appeal the W a r
Dept. shipped h im home to mend wh i le he con-
dit ioned the course for the 1919 Nat ional Ama-
teur, which was won by the home club player
Davie Herron, who defeated Bob Jones, 5 and 4,
in the finals. Loeffler's job was such that the
U S G A issued its first commendation to a green-
keeper on condition of a course during a cham-
pionship. He is reputed to have been drawing
the highest salary of any pro in the country.
WILLIE MAGUIRE IMPROVING—Latest report on condition of W i l l i e Maguire, pro of

is that the veteran is doing a grand job of fight-
