Besides the swimming, golf is played on the decks. This is accomplished through the use of a device which indicates the distance accomplished by a drive on the ball, which is at tached by a string, to a recording instrument Tennis courts are also to be found on the upper deck of the ves sels,' and keep the younger element of the passenger personnel ecu-, pied with healthful exercise.
