C h a rlie Canter was
on his

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

be located in the area. So the
next best thing was done. A
