The 10th hole, which requires a long drive from the top of the resin tee in order to to cross the pond, is proving a puzzle for poor players, and many a ball finds a resting place beneath the water. The best record in this direction was made during the past week, when one of our enthusiastic golfers drove five balls in succession directly into the pond. He is not yet discouraged, and, as all rights in the pond are reserved, the chances are good for finding a small fortune in balls when the pond is drained in the spring. Holt Tournament.
