`Players are asked to collect the shrapnel splinters'
This week, one of our golf
members brought in a list of
golf rules that I couldn't
resist sharing with you all.
The rdles.themselves remind-
ed me of a couple of inci-
dents where I questioned the
value of our great game while
the world around us seemed
to be in turmoil.
The first incident occurred
when I was attending a
provincial golf meeting and
there was much discussion,
it literally hour after hour,
about the interpretation of
4 golf rules. Every rule was
discussed, clause by clause,
and great debate was
involved over words like,
"may" or "shall." When was
the ball deemed to have
moved? When were you
allowed to drop the ball?
When were you allowed to
place the ball?
Another incident happened
much closer to home, when
after a particularly trying day
at school, discussing current
events that included the war
in Bosnia, earthquake vic-
tims, poverty, abuse, and
many more sad and sordid
lifestyles, I was heading
down the fourth fairway con-
cerned about an errant tee -
shot. I found it hard to
believe that at the very
moment I was enjoying the
fresh air, space, scenery and

solitude on the golf course,
halfway around the world a
war was waging. Were peo-
ple golfing in Canada while
millions were starving in
concentration camps during
the Second World War? Were
people golfing while young
Canadian boys advanced on
Vimy Ridge?
I just finished a book enti-
tled Final Rounds. In the
book, a son takes his elderly
father on an abbreviated golf
tour of Great Britain. The
father had not been back
since being stationed there
during the war. He remi-
nisced about the rounds of
golf played while off duty.
He remembered using golf to
help him get back to "nor-
mal" after encountering the
horrors of war. Yes, people
played golf during the wars.
In the heat of battle golf
offered escape into the real
world from the insane world
of war. Golf has always
offered escape either to or
from the trials and tribula-
tions of the real world.
Canada, Great Britain, and
the United Kingdom were
never invaded during the
major wars. There were no
bombs or air raids on our
country. Although Britain
was bombed and devastated,
golf continued in its fashion.

Rec committee

Oct. 28 meeting.
The committee sent him a
letter in early September ask-
ing him what his intentions
were. No reply was received
"and he is once again
absent," minutes of last
month's meeting note.
The Tartan
Chameleon
Golf Notes
by C.A. Doig
and the U.S. although many
major competitions were
postponed during the war
years. It's difficult to imagine
a round of golf being played
in wartime France, Holland
or Germany, yet I would haz-
ard a guess that some form of
the game occasionally kept
idle troop's minds off the
horrors around them, or
offered civilians a chance to
take a break from the fine art
of surviving.
The rules that Charlie
Perkins brought into our
clubhouse last week are
humorous in retrospect. Yet,
the comment at the end of the
rules recognizes the need for
all of us to be thankful for
being able to enjoy our
favourite game in peace.
Even when you're having
your worst round, remember
that you are on this side of
the grass.
