HEROES OF THE STORM
SEVENTY-TWO HOLES IN A DOWNPOUR The storm fiends at Titirangi are F. S. Ballin, T. E. Clark, E. G. Tallis and J. Good. Of this four-ball the chiefs are Tallis and Clark. In the storm of last week-end the four-ball got an early start and finished their first round before the storm started. When a drenched crowd of golfers Avas returning from the links, having deserted the game for the day, the four was going out again. They played two rounds in the teeming rain and Ballin and Good then returned. Tallis and Clark continued on for another round, their fourth of the day. Tallis, making hay while the sun shone, to be distinctly metaphoric, and going to be distinctly metaphoric, went out in 37 and completed the round in SO. The crowd in the . club-house was somewhat amused to see. an umbrella in operation right up to the last holes. Neither player could have been much wetter, umbrella or not. Strangely, not all the members thought that enthusiasm should be carried this far.
