For those who wondered what
was taking place at the Willow
Creek Country club on Sunday,
the answer is "it was Kinzua
Guest Dav". The turnout was
GREAT. Rivalry between the
two clubs is always a close one,
but the friendship is also. As
sociate members of the WCCC
from Condon were also pres
ent. Prizes were given for long
drive on No. 6, and closest to
the pin on No. 4. The winning
men from Kinzua were: low
gross, Dave Lovell; low net, Al
Nistad; long drive, Ed Wham;
closest to pin, Al Nistad. Hepp
ner men winners were: low
gross, Maurice Groves; low net,
Ambrose Chapin; long drive,
Dayle Dugger of Condon; and
closest to pin, Wick Parrish,
Condon.
Number of gals participating
was not as large, but needless
to say, all had a good time. Re
sults of their nine holes were:
for Kinzua, low gross, Dorothy
Close; low net, Marie Hulett;
long drive, Dorothy Close, and
closest to pin, Marie Hulett.
(Rather repititious). Heppner
winners were: low gross, Bever
ly Gunderson; low net. LaFyrne
Pratt; long drive, Marie Mc
Quarrie, and closest to pin, Ma
rie McQuarrie.
We were glad to have the
Gordon Pratts, former residents,
on hand to enter the festivities.
Phil Mahoney, president, plan
ned the day's play.
Hazel Mahoney planned the
chicken dinner and, with help
of other gals, a delicious meal
was served to between 70 and
75 people. After regular play
and dinner, a "sudden death
play-off was held with 24 men
participating in pairs. It was
with pleasure for Heppner that
one of our "youngsters'' some
where in the 70 year-old brack
et was one of the first-place
pairs. LaVerne Van Marter, Sr.,
by name. Don Slinkard of Kin
zua was his partner. Joe Balfe
of Heppner and Jim Hulett of
Kinzua came in for 2nd place.
Attention, Heppner gals! Let's
have a large turnout Tuesday,
July 15, when the Echo. Kinzua
and associate Condon ladies
will be guests of the day. Start
ing time is at S:30, with coffee
and doughnuts before tee-off,
and luncheon following play.
