Excerpt from Law of the Links: Rules, Principles and Etiquette of Golf Certain notable incidents in competition recently have brought up golfers with a sharp turn as to the wisdom and importance of knowing the rules of golf and practicing them rigidly. In the final of the Canadian amateur championship of 1922, there was an indecent demonstration against a referee because the gallery was ignorant of the rule which prevents a player from lifting "a loose impediment" more than a club's length from his ball. In this case it was a cigarette box - it might even have been a single cigarette - which Fraser thoughtlessly lifted before playing his ball, not on the putting green. The decision on this occasion caused a big commotion among the gallery, and the demonstration so "rattled" Fraser's opponent that, after being dormie, he lost the match and the championship.
