RUGGLES INSURANCE AGENCY Heppner, Oregon "OVER THE TEE CUP" By Jackie Labhart It seems as tho' old man wint er has finally won the battle of the survival of the fittest Our last ladies day was the final round as Mr. Weather came in with his TKO in the form of one, well aimed thunder cloud, aided and abetted by a mighty left of freezing atmosphere.

Let's not forget the high school play for Dec. 13th! ty-six lady golfers were present to witness the following awards Dee Cribbles for lowest gross scores , Harriett Hall, highest gross scores Cnuff said); Kay Robinson, most number of strokes ever taken to play the nine holes, (in all fair to Katastrophy Kay, she was having a very, very bad time that day and has never come anywhere near that amount since); Grandmother Coramae Ferguson, most improvement ment shown in score. Marie Mc Quarrie won the door prize, a very red faced Jan Dowen also presented Hazel Mahoney .with a new golf ball to replace the pers onalized golf tee Jan had donated for the second ladies day prize which Hazel won. It seem's as tho' this little object was just received a few days ago and the first time Hazel used it, it broke. (I should make some comment here, but may be better left un said). This writer was also pre sented with one tea bag, blu rib bon and shiny silver tinfoil star attached which read, 'high liter ary award first place it really is quite clever and I shall save it for a rainy day when I can't play golf and need a nice cup of tea to soothe my shattered spirit. During our meeting we ulso elected new officers (see news story elsewhere in paper), drank coffee, discussed the serving of the Elks stag dinner this month, drank coffee, decided to discon tinue ladies day until spring, and finally drained the coffee pots. (I was really quite put out that we didn't have tea, but guess every one gets their fill from this tee tee cup. Bill Walton, the golf pr0 from Pendleton joined uS later during the meeting and gave us a few final tips and pointers on our golf game. He also informed us that you almost need the "killer in stinct" while playing to be a rea lly good golfer, and that you don't have to be crazy to play golf, but it helps. (Now I know what's the matter with all of us). We informed him that we had 41 golfers on the course this last Sunday and he was amazed, as Pendleton had about 50 and they thought that was wonderful. (Shows what small town spirit can do I guess). Tuesday Bill and I took some friends of ours from Tillamook down to the course to play a few holes, but before we departed Glen Ward came down for a cup of coffee, and we talked him into going with us. He did ex ceptionally well for the first time (If I am any judge) but he said he knew he shouldn't have gone for once he tried it he knew he would be a gone golfer . . . and he was. Looks as tho' the Wards will be joining our club shortly. OVERHEARD: Pat Doherty, from lone fell in the creek Sun day trying to retrieve a ball that Grandmother Dougherty played the nine holes all by her self and not another person on the course. . . . that I have griev ously omitted Delores McDowell's name on my grandmother roster . . . . and that Lucille Peck from Lexington shot a 44 last week. The lowest score ever made by a Heppner lady on our course. Well friends (and I hope the ones 1 have chided still are) this is the last time we will be meet ing over the tee cup until next spring.
