"OVER THE
TEE CUP"
By JACKIE LABHART
This being the season of Hal
lowe'en the tee cup this week
will be "brewed" under "be
witching" conditions, and should
I suppose be written by a "ghost
writer"; but I shall enaeavur w
keep you in "suspense" by re
lating the "ghoulish" golfing
gossip and "hair-raising" hap
penings of this past week.
Fifteen "phantom" type female
golfers floundered around the
fairways at our weekly ladies
day competition Tuesday, but a
few of the lady link lovers did
shoot a pretty good game. The
fearless fifteen were Sue Valen
tine, Dee Gribble, Sue Jones,
Inez Meador, Hazel Mahoney,
Faye Ruhl, Coramae Ferguson,
Marguerite Chapin, Hester Cres
wick, Gene Case, Marie McQuar
rle, VI Lanham, Cork Norene and
myself. New golf balls were a
warded to Cork for having the
lowest net score (48-21-27) and
Hester for having the least num
ber of strokes (3) on the hidden
hole, which was no 7. Other
good games were shot by Dee
with a 42-9-33, Vi with a 42-8-34,
and I had a 36-8-28.
GHASTLY GOOFS: the No 4
hole seemed to be "haunting"
Sue Valentine, for her drive Just
made it down over the bluff, her
second shot went into the fence,
then her third shot seemed to
be flying like a "witches' broom
stick" right for the green when
it hit the top of a tree and
bounced back behind her about
20 feet (this is very unusual for
Sue because she is one of our
better golfers) ... I guess Gene
was trying to get into the "spirit"
of the season on the No 5 hole
for she spent quite a bit of time
in the swamp looking for her
golf balls which seemed to dis-
aDDear Into nowhere ... and
little invisible "goblins" seemed i
to be deliberately deflecting Vi's
putts on the No 3 green . . .
i mlsspd eettine an eagle on
the long hole by just Inches be
cause I was "scraed still" ana
too tense to stroke my putt firm
ly .. . Inez and No 8 just
couldn't seem to negotiate.
S.mdav was a glorious day for
golf and among the numerous
nlmrods on tne course were n-aj
and Creston Robinson, Helen and
Ed Schaffltz, Coramae and Ray
mond Ferguson, Oscar Peterson,
Reverend Rydgren, Gerald Peter
son, Suzanne and Bob Jepsen,
Rosetta and Ted Palmatecr, Bob
bie and Jim Drlscoll, Bill Col
lins, VI and Conley Lanham,
Frank Anderson and Father
Spencer.
T think our aonle tree by the
No 2 green holds the same "fatal
fascination" as another wen
known ADDle tree, for those who
try to pluck its fruit seem to
end up in the "applesauce '. sun
day, Jim Drlscoll, after having
a rathpr rough nine noies, ae
Iririort hp needed a little nourish
nipnr Iipfom starting the second
nine, so with crim determination
he started across the bridge in
search of the "forbidden fruit
and in the process the wheel
of his golf cart snagged on one
of tr-e posts and Into the murny
muddv creek descended all of his
golf clubs. (Needless to sal, Jim
at this point was probably won
dering what "black cat" had
crossed his path. But with the
help of his fellow "ghoulfers"
he managed .to Iish out an nis
clubs.) Then on ladies day Cork
and I were sitting on the No 2
tee waiting for the foursome a
head to hole out, when much to
our amazement we saw Gene
Case throwing one of her irons
repeatedly at the aforementioned
apple tree; it seams as tho' she
was trying to knock down one
