PATEA GOLF. ; The ideal weather which prevailed jon Saturday drew an excellent field I for the qualifying round for the ’ Remuera Cup. The benefit of top- ■ dressing is now becoming apparent on | the greens and most of them are j playing fairly true. With a little j more mild weather they should all be ■in fair order for the rest of the sea- • son. The suspension of the “Pick and ; Place” rule had little effect on the i scoring—no fewer than .nine compe- ' titors equalling or bettering the • standard scratch score. j The following handicap reductions i were made on the week-end's play:— C. Palmer, from 18 to 17; E. C. Gilbert, from 20 to 19; C. Beauchamp, from 25 to 24; L. Huston from 30 to 27; L. Paton, from 32 to 31; W. Davidson, from 36 to 35.
