we turned to the actual me
chanics of his work, and found
out several interesting things.
Mahlon comes on the job at
6 p.m., and quits at midnight.
His task involves the sprinkling
of six greens a night, rotated
.every night so that each portion
of the course gets watered about
twice a week. The sprinklers,
must be shifted about on the
/green to insure the rough soaking
•of all parts, and this too.is,done
.‘six times. Earlier in the "Season,
the tees also were sprinkled, hew
ing- watered all night andrrescued
in the morning. But nights are
long since summer went away,
and too much aqua pura would
seep in in the interim so he now
foregoes the tees.
We don’t know whether you’ve
ever seen, the golf course at night
.or not. As a matter of fact, we’ll
give you the benefit of the doubt

•it is a symphony of well watered
greens and sun-baked, browns,
joining in joyous harmony with
the happy babble of golfers, lusty
shouts of fraternity football
teams, and beautiful strains of
the ‘ ROTC band. By night, it is

pretty weird setting in which
to work, but Mahlon doesn’t
mind.
When asked about it, he gal
lantly asserted that he wasn’t
afraid of much of anything. He
conceded, however, that it was
“kinda lonesome.” That’s putting
it mildly. ■
If you ever get out that way

a beautiful place really. A little
