Description

Photographs from Photo Scrapbook 25, page 54 Please see notes for additional information. Page 54 contains two photographs with captions. Photograph a [top] shows five men standing on a grassy area . The man on the far left is facing the camera and appears to be observing the man in front of him (back to the camera) taking a swing with his golf club. To his right is another man (facing the camera) and holding a golf club. The next man to the right is holding a cup which he has apparently filled from the "drinking pail". The last man on the right is somewhat "blurred" and is showing a profile. (What initially appeared to be a "blurred" picture is actually mist from a sprinkling system. Behind them is a three story building in front of which is a column of what appear to be flag poles. To the far left in the background is an open structure which resembles a gazebo. The caption reads: Out of the mist walked the "Water Boy" , and all hands took a drink. Photograph b [bottom] shows three men standing in a grassy area. Two of the men are wearing hats and all are in shirtsleeves. The man in the center (back to the camera) is bent over in preparation to taking a swing of his golf club. The man to the left is showing a profile and staring into the distance. The man to the right is standing with his left hamd on his hip, and his right hand is resting on his golf club. He is staring at the man in the center. Behind them in the background is the gazebo and the three story stone building. The caption reads: "Clock golf proved attractive to some and pretty strokes did credit to the larger game. Al Marple, A. R. Brownlee and Cornelius Wells vied for honors.
