Interpretations of the Rules ! of Golf By INNIS BROWN . * (Managing Editor, The American i Qelfer) A man claims that a player is allowed to ground his club on the, grassy slope of a sand trap, but that he cannot do so where his ball stops on the bank of a ditch, even though the bank be covered with turf and the ball be more than a foot from the water. Is this correct f If so how do the two cases differt The Question here la purely one of the limits of the ditch as a water hazard. If the banks of the ditch are accounted a part of the haaard, then the player Is not allowed to ground his club in addressing the ball, though there is no penalty for allowing the clubhead to touch the blades of grass. For this reason it is quit* Important a club official mark the limits of a hazard In the case of a ditch. In the ease of a Ml stopping on the bank or slope of a sand trap, where the ball rests on turf, tt Is not technically in the hasard, according to the definition of a banker or so-ealled sand trap. Tfce definition of a bunker states that it Is that part of a depression la the ground where the natural soil Is exposed and sometimes top-dressed with setter soli or sand. That being the case, the sloping side covered with turf Is not a put of the Maker within the meaning of the rolaa. bat ^ 4 ' t than i,500.0m ffMrv f--t »f floor tfem being aiUad $» the prtuml plants •/ fm land Meter Car Ctmpanj at Penttm, Michigan, vkifbwillhedellMf the manufacture »fOakland ana PtmUmt 1M& are Oakta Scarcely twelve months ago Oakland was only one of many manufacturers striving for preeminence. Today it ranks among the largest builders of motor cars in the world. Responsible for this tremendous ^owth have been a continuous series of triumphs resulting in a recordbreaking 212% increase'in business crVer 1925. With the advent of the past year, came the introduction of the Pontiac Six. So great was the demand it created, that in six months Pontiac Six production had exceeded the greatest full year Cecord previously scored by a new make v #f cor. And by the end of the year, with pontiac production reaching 76,523 that record had been surpassed by Snore than 100%! In July came the -jpreater Oakland Six with 77 refinements, featured by that epochal engineering development--the Rubber- 212% lncre*»e IttSP 134,089 Silenced Chassis. And in every section of the land* Oakland sales leaped up* ward, necessitating the un* precedented production of 57,566 Oakland Sixes--- nearly 15,000 more than in 1925--and surpassing any previous record in Oak* land's twenty year history. Now, with its position securely es* tablished, Oakland-Pontiac bids for new and greater heights--for over fit teen millions of dolun are being invested to provide for greater production* In the strictest sense, this huge in# vestment represents more than an e» pression or confidence by General Motors in Oakland principles of design# manufacture and distribution. It stands as a tangible pledge to the public at large that in fundamental goodness and fundamental value Oakland Six and Pontiac Six wUl continue supreme In their fields! . Pontiac Si*, $825 to $975.

Plans for the creation of a new park district In McHenry county are rapidly nearing completion, and within a short time the voters will be asked to pass on the project, it was announced by Louis A. Erickson of West McHenry, chairman of the park committee of the McHenry Kiwanls club. Investigation of the recent referendum in which a bond issue of $95,000 for city improvements in Highland Park won by 128 votes, led to the arrest of five on charges of illegal voting and their Incarceration In the Lake county jail at Waukegan.

Sixty-flY® cents on the *100 valuation Is to be the Illinois tax rate for this year, the state tax board decided.

The rate remains 20 cents in excess of what was asked by Douglas Southerland, representing the Chicago Civic federation. The figure is five cents lower than that recommended by the state's own calculators in the offices of the auditor, treasurer, and the finance department of the executive office.

Within a few months, Dodge Brothers, Inc^ will introduce a new line of motor cars, in no way conflicting with the market for Dodge Brothers present types, but occupying a considerably higher price field and produced in limited quantities. Combining Dodge Brothers well known dependability with exceptional perform' ance and striking beauty of appointment anH design, these distinguished vehicles, we believe, will instantly set a new 'and higher standard in fine car practice. Dodge Brothers will continue to produce their present line in maximum quantities to meet a demand which, during the year just ended, was very much the largest in their history, reaching the record total of 330/300 cars. » i
