An all-metal practice cup that can be used for chipping as well as putting is a new product by Shamrock Specialty Prod-ucts, 29000 Lakeland Blvd., Wickliffe, Ohio. This new cup uses an entirely different principle that allows a ball hit too hard to roll through the cup.

Cups retail at $1.75 each, or a set of three at $4.95. Standard cartons of 12. Available through golf jobbers, or write direct if your jobber can't supply.

MH-40 CUTS C O S T OF MAINTAINING BUNKERS AND ROUGHS

North Shore CC, Glen Cove, L. I., N. Y. uses the chemical MH-40, a growth regu-lator developed by the Naugatuck Chemi-

cal Div., U. S. Rubber Co., to control grass on hard-to-get-at bunker edges and in roughs after previous tests at the course showed MH-40 reduced mowings about 80 per cent.

Last season at the course the grass was cut about ten days after spraying on five bunkers and a section of rough and did not require further cutting for three months, according to course superintend-ent William Sloane. During the same pe-riod unsprayed bunker edges and roughs were cut five times.

Sloane estimates MH-40, or maleic hy-drazide, can save about 160 man hours a season in maintaining bunker edges that are too steep to be cut with a mower and have to be hand-trimmed with a sickle.

National Games, Inc., 91 Church St., West Springfield, Mass., has a new golf game played with dice on a board carry-ing an interesting diagram of a golf course. It's fun. It may catch on.

NEW GERMICIDE WITH CLEAN MINT ODOR

A disinfectant that doesn't smell like a disinfectant is the new Winter-Phene, mfr'd by James Varley & Sons, 1200 Switzer Ave., St. Louis 15. The clean, fresh odor of spearmint is compounded from oil of spearmint and pepermint along with germ killing ingredients to produce a dis-infectant that will keep the air in your clubhouse fresh the year around. A few ounces of Winter-Phene in the mop-ping solution acts as a powerful deodorant and disinfectant, eliminating musty, foul odors coming from floors and rest room fix-tures, etc. Interested parties may obtain a free sample and additional information by writing the manufacturer.
