Such players as Dr. Willie Kemp, Johnny Kirschenbaum, Horace “Bowlegs” O'Bryant, etc., stoutly oppose the selection of Club rep- resentation by the younger up- starts such as, Charley Smith, Jack “Man Mountain” Sellers, Tony Demeritt, and the like. The “Grey Beards”, claim that the positions on the team have been f without . proper thought as to their superior abil- ity with the niblic and putter. Team poitions at present are, No. 1 Joe Lopez, No. 2 Bob Spottswood, No. 3 Tony Dem- eritt, No. 4 Jack Sellers, No. 5 Charley Smith, No. 6 Jim Lon- deree, No. 7 Rex Clark, No. 8 John Kirschenbaum, No. 9 Hart- ley Albury, No. 10 T. R. Dullion, No. 11 Willie Kemp, No. 12 Ike Park, No. 13 Bascom Grooms, No. 14 Bowlegs O’Bryant. With the exception of the |Champ Lopez, all other places have been contested. In view of this opinion, matches are to be arraigned which will remove all doubt as to position on the team ever, pending arrival of wheel chairs to transport the “Ancients” about the course. son, N., 500; Ingraham, N., 500; James Mira, A.

We had to be sturdy and alert or we. would not have survived the bliz- zards and tomahawks. : Our Mayflower grandma and. grandpa had a log house out there in the edge of the forest—no run- ning water—no grocery store and bakery and beauty: shoppe -down jon the corner. These folks laid the jfoundation for a great nation. Thrift was the _corner-stone. Without a stock of beans, and corn, and smoked meat stored in the summertime, there was, no eatin’ in the wintertime, But as time rolled along and as ithe country prospered we started joining lunch clubs, and golf} clubs, and book reviews. We took on some fat around thé midriff. We decided it was easier to let! the other guy do our heavy thinking for us. And now as a reward for same, we have a flock of 2000 or so bureaaus and grand | idea agencies with their feet un- ‘der our table—and their elbow| in our ribs. We better choose to! return to our Mayflower habits—| before we find ourselves out in| the alley. Yours with the low down, JO SERRA en a meeting tonight in the hall on!

Hand challenged the owner, who said: “You're all wrong, mis- ter. Those machines were just brought in for me to repair. I repair machines like that on the side.” Just then a patrgn inserted a nickel in one of the machines and the tinkle of a “hit” was heard. The machines are licensed now.
