The Le isu re Hour G olf Club of Portland held its second m onthly sweepstake at the new tu rf W e s t Delta G o lf C ourse. Twenty two b la c k g o lfers teed-off at 9 aun. on Sunday May 30. It didn’ t take long fo r H e n r y M a rsh a ll, p rin cip a l at Jefferson High School, to m a ste r the tu rf 6,397 yd. layout. M arshall shot a total 79 to take 1st place of the t w e n t y - t w o g o lfe rs. But i t wasn’ t easy. L o n g d riv e ball h i t t i n g C h a rlie Canter was on his tr a il all the way to the 13th hole, until ” ole man r iv e r ” cams into play. He reco rd ed a double bagey on the 13th hole. Ganter hit his tee shot into a bunker and attempted to hit short of the water, but he caught it clean and it r o ll ed into the riv e r , and it was all over. Ganter was runner- up fo r second place. (Cont. from p. 6 - c o l. 5) Henderson is quite proud of the past nine months. He feels that th is is the type of p ro gress that proves that Blacks can achieve success if they are w illin g to work and m ik e the sacrifices neccessary to obtain a goal. He is , however, not satisfied to s it back and rest on his la u re ls . He is not yet finnished. He hopes that one day the O bserver w ill become the f ir s t black oriented da ily newspaper on the West Coast And if he continues at his pre sent rate he w ill make it. In order to accommodate the new press, la rg e r qu arters had to be found. T hepublisher would have prefer red to have re mained In the Albina Commun ity, but no suitable building could be located in the area. So the next best thing was done. A building located at 2201 N.
