"OVER THE TEE CUP" By Jackie Labhcnrt Well, I hope you hunters are happy ... it has precipitated as anticipated, but you should see our gqlf course! Monday morning Kay P.obin son, Bebe Munkers and I played seven holes before the formid able rains came again. On the the "psychological menace" (the ho. 2 hole which has a water hazard on each side), it was like trying to retrieve a marshmallow from an oversized wad of gum to chip your ball out of the grasp ing mud to approach the green. To make matters worse Paul Koenig was also there, proud ly showing some out of town males our Utile course and it took me three strokes to tee off ac ross the creek. Funny what on lookers can do to one's nervous system. But back to the rain ... I must say In all fairness that it did freshen up the fairways that are fortunate enough to be lightly covered with a smattering of grass. I wasn't able to make the two ball foursome Sunday as the gov ernor ruined our plans by open ing the hunting season (yes, I'm a Republican) and my husband was hunting hunters instead of golf balls. But I later was told it wasn't held anyway, because numerous nlmrods, who last week were golfers were heeding lite call of the woods (forests, not BOB Times, Thursday, October 3, 1957 golf clubs). I The Larry Dowens were there. tho, along with their guests, Mr. and Mrs. Stan May of Seattle. Mrs. May shot the course in a 42, which is practically unbeliev able but of course she is a tournament golfer and departed from here to play In the fall handicap tournament in Seattle. It Is now plain to see why Larry is such a good golfer it isn't practice or ability, it has to be inherited. (Mrs. May is Larry's mother). - As usual we had our ladies day Tuesday in spite of the ominous looking clouds overhead and 15 dew or dyers played their nine holes before the first charming little raindrop fell. By the time we reached the haven of the Wishing Well's patio it was rain ing pitchforks. As we drippingly dropped our clubs and selves to rest we recapitulated the scores made during the morning and soggily awaited our hot coffee and hamburgers. Here and now I would like to thank Tom Wells for braving the chatter and laughter of 15 women to refill our coffee cups several times. Dee Gribble had low score for the day, and guess who had do nated a new golf ball for the Prize? That's right, "Indian Giver Gribble" as she was tenderly nicknamed by a person who shall remain anonomusmahoney. "William Tell" Helen Shaffitz really made the shot of the day . . . On her tee off at no. 1 hole she really made a beautiful drive . , . as straight as an arrow which swerves at a 45 degree angle to the right and into the creek. Her loss made applesauce as she ( lobbered a few million apples as her ball zoomed through the ap ple trees, (yes, we also raise apples as well as golfers at the Willow Creek Country Club). Jim Driscoll, Bill Collins and Ted Palmateer worked over the weekend to make the course a little tougher by planting stakes between fairways for boundaries . . . but I must say if they make many more boundaries I won't ever get in the forties. Seriously tho' it took a lot of time and work and it does make the course a little more professional. By the "partee line" I heard it was a Heppner Pine Mills grader which plowed down several small mounds on the course and left us with the nice slimy, smooth mud. In time tho' as the little green weeds poke their prickly heads through the mire 'it will be very nice ... our thanks to Heppner everything affecting your interests. Your newspaper will brook no obstruction to the channels of accurate, unbias ed information which are basic to the proper function-, ing of our free American way of life. OSC Leaflet Outlines New Hard Wheat A hard white winter wheat for the medium and low rainfall areas of Oregon is described In a new folder published by the Oregon State college agricultur al experiment station. The new wheat variety, named Pine Mills. The pro lessons were held as scheduled last Friday, but due to the liquid moisture falling at the appointed hour, the lessons were held in the Legion hall. But spirits were not dampened as 25 eager would-be golfers were on hand for the'first week's lesson. Our grandmothers were wifh us again on ladies day, altho one of them was slightly stiff and sore. Last week I omitted Hester Creswick among the grandmoth ers but I hereby acknowledge her status among this foursome. I told you last week I'd let you know today whether Keith Imus helped or hindered the foursome he caddied for last week well not one of them were there Tues day so you can judge from there. (This column does not reflect the views and opinions of the gen eral public). One parting word have heard that Gene Case was quite thril led when Ray Ayers told her he had found 12 golf clubs in the basement of the Case apartment building. But lo and behold all 12 clubs were putters and the employees of Phil's Pharmacy have dubbed- her "Putt Putt Case".
