Fifty cars were on the park- ing line in the afternoon and the course was thronged with players. Fast greens upset the good inten- tions of many golfers and scores| rose to higher figures than was ex- pected. in spite of fairways that were in excellent shape. Ted Hart, who has been going good all winter, shot a neat 76, and Bill Sweeney tried out his shots and scorcd 79. 48 Ormond Bates played a round 6 | close to the 80 mark but most of the golfers had to be content with scores that indicated that they were far from mid-season form. ‘While the course was as good as could be expected, the rain of Sun- day night and the showers Monday did the fairways and green a lot of good. Other courses in this district| were opened for play, and in some cases, tournaments were run off.

From Bobby Jones down to| the most pronounced duffer. every- one will be wrapped up in his game | juntil snow flies next December. The niblick fraternity in a noble brother- | hood and wide flung is its influence. The links provide & great play- ground and a game of golf furnishes a brand of recreation unmatched in | any other line of sport. For young |and old, for men and women, the game of the Scots fits the needs of American life and it has come into |its own. Hundreds of thousands of ardent golfers on this side of the 30 Atlantic testify to that. | Once it was considered an exclu- sive sport, a game to be played only by the wealthy. Athletes scofted it as a “slssy” game and fun wa poked at it from all quarters. Today, ‘gol( cannot be laughed out of court on the score that it is a silly sport. Not with Babe Ruth playing it. 57 20 09 95 | 51 07 95 | Not so long ago, a laugh could be secured by terming golf “cowpasture pool.” Today, that wise-crack dates the jester to the backwoods period. o6 | Golf is too serlous a business for 13| four million people to be a popular |subject for joking. It takes a funny man sympathetic to golt to get his stuff across in this field. 94 | 86 | Evervone is playing the game or at least making plans to join the bandwagon on private or municipal courses. And every new recruit adds %la step in making golf our natonal game. It is freely predicted that the an- cient and royal game will soon re- place bhaseball in American affec- tions. The gentlemen's game has ¢ panded into a game for the general public and no one can stop the course of its growth. New Britain will be in line about: September 1, when it is planned that | the public links, or nine holes of it, iwill be opened for play. This is in line with what other progressive cities are doing. Meanwhile Goodwin Park and Rockledge will have to provide for local players who do not hold mem- bership in the private clubs. Their number is not small and among T them are some good sharp shooters. In a year or two, a city cham- pionship will be a golfing cvent worthy of local interest. It is con- ceivable that the finalists will not both be from a private club. And it is in the realm of possibility that| New Britain will have an entry in the national public links champion- | ship one of these da 14 16 CLAIM JUNIOR TITLE The Flashy Five basketball team claims the junior championship of | the efty . following its victory over | the Church league Outcasts in a series of thre¢ games.

Any teams wishing to dispute this claim will be met cither in a single game or a series. Tom Mangan of 430 Myrtle street is the manager. The team is composed of members of the B club.

The issue of the Herald for Satur- day, I'cbruary was carried by Licutenants White and McMullen on their record-breaking fight from New York to Buenos Aires, Argen- tina, and was returned to us today after having made the 7,000 mile trip in a new record of 5 da hours.

Licutenants White and McMullen shattered all existing records be- tween New York and Buenos and intermediate points. From ark airport to Miami, Florida, the fliers reduced the flying time thr hours. Ifor the first time in the tory of aviation, a land plane con- quered the treacherous air currents of the Caribbean. along the route, from Miami fo Panama to Santiago, Chile to Buenos Aires, new flying records made this trip unique in the history of aviation, Flight Tilled With Hazards Though the plane operated per- fectly, the flight was filled with un- | reckoned perils which at times en- dangered the lives of the fliers. High up through the redoubtable Andes, the fog blinding their observation so that they had to ascend to a height of 21,000 feet—above arld desert land where a forced landing would have meant a lingering death—over vast areas or virgin jungle—sfich were the hazards faced when the | fifers undertook the flight which was to prove that lon between the Ame ble. Member of Caterpillar Club Lieutenant Will W. White became a member of the Caterpillar club not long agowhen he was forced to leap from a disabled planc via parachute. He has over 1,800 flying hours to his credit and is a specialist in en- gine design and flight tests.

(UP)—Canadians emigrating to this country should be subject to a quota as well as immi- grants from European countries, in the opinion of Henry E.
