What's Wrong Here? 1 T7ROM the clues below It. can ' 'JE? ,w w fYnp of the molt Ingenious of modern day puzzle constructors, William J. Baumgartner, produced this mathematical golf puzzle with a "course" of four sections, or, la golf language, four boles. ' Notice that the course (below) la divided into an V upper, lower, right and left section. To play, select a group of five adjacent numbers in any section which form the shape of the letter TEE.' First try to form a TEE with ai large a total at possible. TEE's may be In any position but must be similar In shape to the stippled area shown in the upper section of the! "course." Should the difference between, the maximum' and . minimum TEE's formed be equal to the key num ber, which is 10, the puzzle is solved and your score is a "hole-in-one." As par is S, three trials are allowed In which to score the key number. As soon as one section Is solved continue In an other section until the entire "course" is traversed. Once started it holds the interest Until the "course" is completed. Try your hand and become a proficient mathemat ical golfer. Tou can also play this math-. ematical golf with a partner by using checkers, ' counters or dice. Each playei1 takes his turn and tosses 3 L TTTvOM the clues below It, can you Identify who made - this historic rtmarki "When a man assumes a pnblie treat, be should consider himself as publlo property."

If more than one TEE is possible the player makes a choice. The TEE's are totaled and the player with the highest total wins the round and scores SO and 27 and so wins three points; his op ponent scores 31 and 27 or four points. The second player therefore wins the round by one point. The total points won must equal the key number.' If dice are used, the number turned up with each toes becomes a bonus and la to be added to the total of the TEE formed. If more than two players are in the game, a player scores the difference between his own score and the lowest score made. - t Tw moi !t rnej whIih is moi imjmh its oanM ma twn wntH It ro immi ?u nenaw Mdo mat 1P0 iohois FILLING THE TANK VOLUNTEER Ore department members ' were testing Its pumps and emergency water sup ply tanks.
