BEND I I'M SJNORM R1TTER BenaB, setter golfers are pleased to announce the club's acquisition of a "Verticutter" this . week a gadget Which they hope will have a decided effect en the way they putt on the club's luxuri ant nine-hole course. It's this luxuriance that makes , , the coursecertainly one of the country's finest , nine-holers one of Central Oregon's beauty spots. : But it doesn't do anything for one's game on the greens. (Again, I'm quoting the "better" golfers.) ' TTie Bend golf course greens are thick, heavily-tufted mats . that always are relatively slow regard less of how recently and how fre quently they are mowed, ; It's the job of a verticutter to thin out this heavy growth so thorough mowing will have the desired effect. The principle is the same as the one the barber works on when he takes a pair of thinning shears to the head of one of his more hirsute custo mers. - i ; But where a man tends to Jose his need for thinning shears with age, not so with greens on a golf course. As they grow older, their roots. Become better established and the grass itself becomes coarser. This produces a cushiony underfooting that is pure comfort to walk on but tough on the man whose every putt counts for - something. What's more, the greens keeper . doesn't derive the full benefit from his mower because the ... blades are riding over too soft a mass to permit close cutting. . a ,...:,,.....". Ed Sullivan Sr. stole the play irom- me verucuuer as tne topic of conversation at the club last night. He had Just posted a gross soore of 88, which combined with his 27 handicap to give him a 61 easily the low net score in the spring handicap qualifying round. Harry Gobelman called from Redmond early Thursday morn ing to reply to the question posed in this column Wednesday: name ly, ean anyone remember, when before1 last week Redmond won a district track meet from Bend? The RUHS track mentor and ath letic director said it was 1947: which, would make invalid Claude Cook's statement that Bend hadn't lost in at least 20 years. The records show Gobelman was wrong.- In 1947 it was Bend 72; Redmond 6U4. He must 'have . been referring to the Central Ore gon meet .which the.

Louis Cardinals. dg vie, you u nriiiemuci , was part of the two-way surprise oi the off-season. Alter 17 years in the Yankee chain he went to the Cardinals and Country Slaughter, after 16 years in the Redbird or ganization, went to the Yankees. The deals weren't connected 'but they left both men with the same bitter reaction. - Slaughter was outspoken about hit disappointment at leaving old, pamiliar scenes. Raschi, ever the Introvert, contemplated the switch with the reserve of a Supreme Court judge and took umbrage only with the parting words of the Yankees. The inference was that Raschi was one of those guilty of "com- ilacency," a word exhumed by the Yankees to get their pennant surfeited athletes "on the ball" in an attempt for a sixth consecutive W; .' .... "As xar as mat is concemea,- Vlc pronounced, "I'll stand on my record and J think it's good enoueh." It would seem to be, lnea. as a member or tne nve-in-a-row club, Raschi over that span won 92 games against only 40 losses. He had a 21-10 mark in 1949: led the American League in percent ages with a .724 mark in 1960 on 21 wins and eight losses; had a 21-10 mark in 1951 when he led the league in strikeouts: scored a 1W mark in 1952 and had a 134 record in J953. ; It stands there in black and white that he tailed off over the last two years. Which may be why the Yankees tried to slash his $40,000 salary to $30,000 this sea son. Vic wouldn't have any of, it, and the next thing he knew he was in a Cardinal uniform. A pronounced introvert who long has kept his own counsel and a man who never joined in tne horseplay of the Yankee family, Vic doesn't pop off now. He be comes a man with an icy exterior when he is asked to compare the Yankees and the, Cardinals. "The Cardinals have a tradition of their own," he says in what is, for him, a long speech, "iney. too, have the winning spirit ana the winning habit.'' Rior Vie is civil, but that's all. There is no effort to extend himself to make friends or influence people. He answers questions simply and briefly but doesn't elaborate. At 35, he has molded to a form which has hardened beyond change. But there is an even more pro nounced bulge to his determined Jaw, this year, a season in which He Oregon 's la rgest - selling straight bpurbon! . THIS WHISKEY I?
