SATUBDAY, AUGUST fltt DAILY COUWER. CONNELLSVILLE. PA. Golf, which continues te. in popularity in this country, is also quite popular in many foreign lands.

A country not often heard from in connection with thii sport is Pakistan. Not too long ago Paul A. of Perryopolis returned from Pakistan after a rather lengthy stay there. During his stay he became acquainted with that country's version of golf and participated in golf matches on Pakistani courses. Mr.

Luce's story, entitled "Golf in East Pakistan." should prove interesting to linksmen of the area. For thai leaon, we are reprinting it here. Golf In East Pakistan The Dacca Club is rather exclusive, the membership of which is largely English, Pakistani, and a few other nationalities who have Consulates located here. There is an attractive dub house with an indoor swimming pool and four well-kept and much-used tennis courts. The golf course is located just across the highway from the club house ia the infield of the Dacca race track.

The course was formerly eighteen holes, but since partition many of the English have gone home so there is not much interest in golf. Now. we have nine holes; five par fives, two par threes, and two par fours which makes a total of 39. They call par "Bogey" so it's bogey The course is entirely flat with a few hazards in the way of traps, but the many distractions make up for the lack of hazards. The mowers consist of a large herd Of cattle that are always roaming on the course.

At some point in each round, there will be cows in the way, but one soon learns to shoot over them. If the ball hits one, it may be played over without penalty. All of the greens are fenced with two strands of barbed wire to keep the cattle off the turf. The greens are n6t very iniooth, but several of them have been renewed this spring. The whole golf course is more or less a public park, and there are many people going back and forth across it, sitting in groups playing cards, or just resting.

Each golfer has two boys.

Number 1 is straight away 320 yards along the track. A hook can easily go out of bounds on lie race track, but the worst distraction is a diagonal path which is much traveled by pedestrians, women carrying babies men with baskets on their heads men with umbrellas always someone within range.
