() Football Money Supports Other Athletics at Yale NEW HAVEN, Conn., Dec. 16.

(AP) British golfers are puzzled over a freak hole in one and a question of golf etiquette at the same time. A player's tee shot rolled past the flag, up the sloping bank at the back of the green and into a rabbit hole. By a local rule the ball was picked out and dropped without penalty. It rolled "down the sloping green and into the cup. Observing the time honored cus tom, the player tipped his caddy handsomely and bought refresh ments for his friends, only to be told later that a referee would not have allowed the hole because a golfer isn't supposed to gain ad vantage other than fair lie, when dropping a nicked un ball. If the ball could not have lfen I dropped without rolling, exp rts ruled, it should have been pla ?A in a fair lie by hand. Hood River apple crop reaches 4,500 cars this year.
