New craze for idle-rich ... aerial golf. With not enough hazards in an ordinary game of golf, and not enough adventure in flying, some genius has invented aerial golf. The rules are quite simple. There are nine holes, each one an airport near Washington.
The play flies to the first airport, tee #1 and from a minimum height
of 500 feet, drops the ball, attached to a parachute, to the nearest pit
or hole, indicated by a red flag at the airport. He then lands his
plane, finds his ball and proceeds as in every game of golf, to hit the
ball into the hole with his golf clubs. This done, he tunes up his plane
and flies to the next airport or tee #2 and repeats. Every player is
required to carry a score-keeper. Photo shows three girls, prominent in
