Whether ; 'tis nobler In the mind to suffer j through the digging and plant ing of outrageous yardwork, Or to take "woods and irons" a gainst the conflict of your emot ions ... and go golfing! Noticed my neighbor, John Williams, did defy the "lure of the links Sunday, and stayed home to work In his yard. (Such will poweror Vivian-power) Can't say the same for my other neighbor, Crcston Robinson . . . he practically lived on the course all weekend. And speaking of the "lure of the links" heard via the partee line that one fellow couldn't even control his new red and white Chevrolet against the magnetic pull of the course. . even made a new road down over the bluff.

Working gals Elaine George, Jan Dowen and Daisy Collins joined us there for lunch. . . .but Jan should have stayed at work, for she acci dentally (I wonder) had salt in the sugar bowls. After some what salty cups of coffee, scores were tallied and Sue Valentine had low score for the day and received a golf glove. Shirley Loyd, Cathy Collins and I tied for the lowest number of strok es on the hidden hole, which was No 6 across the tulles. Cathy won the toss and three gold plated tees. Believe it or not, I had the lowest number of putts for the nine holes and also won three golf tees. (Probably should use the putter for all my game).
