NORFOLK, Va. April 20—P— Walter Hagen, who doesn't make very many puolic appearances ti days, was reminiscing for the Ni folk Spor Club yesterday when somebody asked him to compare mcdern golfers with the old-timer: “I can't do it,” replied the Haig. “When I first started playing, we didn’t have as good equipment, golf courses weren't so well groomed and we didn't have the same otjectives to shoot for. We patterned ourselves after Harry Vardon, a fine golfer, we just puttered along, trying to stay out of trouble. Then when bet- ter implements came along, some- body learned you could take a double swing and hit the ball a mile. Now everybody does it.” Illustrating the differences in golf equipment, Hagen told of play- ing oh a park course in Rochester, N. Y, years ago with a golf ball which has compressed air in the center. The Haig sliced a drive deep in some bushes, While the cop was trying to see who or what was hid- den in the shrutbery, Hagen topped a shot and the ball exploded. “Hey,” shouted the cop, “no shooting allow- ed in there.” Norfoik baseball fans are wonder- ing if they have another Curt Sim- mons in Vincent Knight, who has fanued 55 batters in three games in the local Midget League.

And in these days when the demand for new homes is greater thafl the supply, many families are deciding not to move from their present homes. Instead, they are repairing, replanning, re- decorating and bringing their homes up to date for far less than a new home would cost. Practically any kind of property improvement can be financed on t!1e FHA Pay-out-of-Income Plan. Repayment is made in con- venient monthly installments suited to t.he borrower’s income over periods up to 3 years. FHA rates are low—SS discount per $100 per year. 4 : ‘Why not let your architect or builder give you an estimate ot the cost of the alterations needed ?
