GOLF BALL PROBLEM
American golf balls which would retail at 11s in New Zealand if a licence for their importation could be secured were mentioned when the executive of the Christchurch Metropolitan Golf Association discussed the shortage of balls. Canadian balls were not expected before September, it was stated, but Australian balls, of which considerably larger rsupplies could be expected soon, had satisfactorily pass- n ed recent tests. At the same time, a cheap New Zealand-made product which “looked i like a golf ball,” which would probably sell for about 2s, and which would help in some measure to relieve the shortage, would possibly be on sale shortly.
