Rouge Park fairways were the setting for the Red- ford-Cody meet where Comet clubster Dennis Vach projected a golf ball into orbit as he took his turn from the launching tee. Only an interesting reflection cuts the clear surface of a hazardous water trap as a Comet golfer suc- cessfully chips around it and prepares for his next drive.

LF TEAM Front Row S Stabler B Defending the 1958 West Side League Golf Championship, Comet golfers swung through the 1959 season in an effort to club notable league contenders once again. They met with only mediocre success, however, as the final score card totaled tive wins, four losses, and a tie. Getting of to a rough start, Cody won its hrst match with Cooley, 4-1, but then lost three games in succession. The Cardinals defeated Cody a second time around, 316-I M, and Redford linksmen out-swung Comet golfers, 4-I , in successive dual matches. Getting back into the swing of things, Cody clubbers drove double victories over Wilbur Wright, 4M-Mr, and 4-1. After losing its first match with Ford, Cody bounced back again to slip past the Trojans, 3-2, and shut out Mackenzie, 5-0. In a final game with the Stags, Cody tied Mackenzie, 216-ZMJ. Comet linksmen then competed in the all-city golf tournament to place fifth against East and West League opposition. I nexperienced Comette golfers by comparison were no match for 1959 league competition. Losing to Cass, 5-0, in their first game, the girls fared no better as the season went along. Four successive defeats at the hands of Cooley, Redford, Highland Park, and Ford made 1959 a dismal season for the Girls' Golf Team.
