"OVER THE TEE CUP" By JACKIE LABHART Over hill. . over dale, we hit the Kinzua trail; and our golf balls went rolling along, up and down, round a tree, from a brand new kind of tee; and our golf balls went rolling along. Then we putt up hill, which took a lot nf skill, and mostly our iudge- ment was wrong. But where e'er we go, you will always know, that our spirit and courage is strong. The "mountain climbers mak ing the trip to the beautiful but hillv Kinzua Country Club last week were: Hester Creswick, Cork Norene, Gene Case, Marie Mc Quarrie, Bonnie Mattoon, Dee Gribble, Velma Glass, Hazel Ma honey, Kay Robinson and myself. After a scrumptious dinner at noon served in their convenient little club house, we played an invigorating 12 holes of golf. They only have a six hole course but those six are "dillys", Their links are nestled right in the mountains and pine trees are practically everywhere you look, including right in front of your ball most of the time. Cork won a prize for carding low net score (they have the cleverest way of figuring a hand icap for just one round of play), and I unconsciously shot low gross score. Dorothy Close of Kin- DISTRIBUTOR iiu u;aa three strokes un der me, but being I was second and a visitor, they gave ine nrt tr, me. All in all it was great fun and we are looking forward to their visit wun us the first Tuesday In October. The men's 36 hole fall handi cap tournament has just termi nated and the winners in a field of 35 participants were: low gross, Lowell Gribble; second low gross, Fannie Doherty; iow nei, Judge Carmichael; and second low net, Bob Jepson. The lowest rounds were shot by "Grlb" and tv,i inrHan hnth makine a three over par 32. In the near future the fellows will begin a match play tournament to determine the club champion. Despite the biting winds and ominous clouds we had a ter rific turnout for our ladies day competition Tuesday. Those play ing were Roberta Dougnerty, sue Valentine, Gene Case, Shirley Loyd, Cathy Imus, Bobble Dris coll, Kay Robinson, Delores Mc Dowell, Cork Norene, Marie Mc Quarrie, Inez Meador, Hazel Ma honey, Dee Gribble, Maxine MnC.urdv. Laurel Cannon, Hester Creswick, Doreen Jacobs and this frozen female. New golf balls were awarded to Hester for the drive closest to the pin on No 5; Cathy, Kay and Hazel carded the most sixes; Maxine the most sevens, and Cathy eights. Low net score was by Shirley, shooting a 48 with a 24 handicap. LADIES DAY OBSERVATIONS: Gene shooting her best game of golf, and if she told us once she told us twenty times that she parred No 7 hole (she was just so thrilled she could hardly con tain herself and said she owed it all to her Jacuzzi). . . . saw numerous two eyed, two armed, turquoise hooded golf beaters and they sure looked strange to me. . . newcomers Maxine Gray and Donna McCurdy doing right well for beginners. . . collect ing $2.90, on our penny each putt money making method. . . saw "lumberjack" Marie tear down half a tree to obtain a "twig" with which to stir her coffee Cork carding a "birdy" on No 8 ... we all were glad to have Laurel and Doreen back with us again (and that's quite a trip from where they live). Well this "bird" "wood" pro bably chatter on all day, so be fore our golfing editor gets "teea off" at my "putting" on and on, I had better "approacn tne "green", fill my "cup" and make this "par" for now.
