Fastent:

There are critics who think that ropes carried round by squads of officials have ceased to be efficacious in this age of mon- ster crowds; that the excited gal- leries simply trample down the ropes, which, therefore, add to the confusion instead of alleviat ing it.

Nevertheless. I think that the old, original scheme of ropes has a lot to recommend it, especially when there is always a squad of bearers a hole ahead getting the ropes into position while the play- ers are at the preceding hole. --Harry Vardon in "Sports Des patch."
