Three Shafter golfers led by Frank Wisner, former partner of the Shafter Press and Buttonwillow Times, got their car bogged in deep sand while seeking a shortcut from the Northern to Buena Vista course. Mrs Wisner and Jack Frost accompanied him as a tow truck freed the vehicle after a two hour delay. They still managed to play nine holes afterward.
