Over The Tee Cup By MARIE McQUARRIE The number of women play. Inn coif on Ladles' Day U In creasing with ten out to enjoy the beautiful, fresh sunshlney morning last Tuesday. Karen Thompson received a Rolf ball for low score on hole No. 6. Bev erly Gunderson, with low num ber of putts, also received a ball. A sack lunch was the or der for the day, and a short meeting was held while eating. The gals have a unique way of putting a little more money into the coffers of their treas ury. Each one pays 25c to play. Also, count is kept of the num ber of putts used on the 9 holes, and a penny-a-putt Is paid. You would be surprised how this can add up to help purchase things needed. The men's organ ization could take note of our system and figure out something similar for them on Sunday morning. With golf season getting In to full swing and outside ac tivities becoming less pressing with school nearly out, we hope more gals will pamper them selves and take the few hours on Tuesday morning to Join the group. Playing golf, It has been said, is a good therapy for for getting cares and worries (if you have any) as you walk around the course, connecting with that little white ball no matter where it might land. Come on, gals, join us on Tues day morning and just see how much better you feel, how much brighter the world looks, and how much you enjoy the game of golf. Starting time is 9:00 a.m. Our first planned-play for Sunday was held this last week with VI and Conley Lnnham as hosts. Starting time was 3:00 p.m. and It was surprising how many turned out: the temir aturo was mighty warm at this time of the afternoon. Eight couples and four men without partners participated in the two-ball foursome. Purtners were determined by pulling numbers out of a hat. Lowell Cribble and Hazel Mahoney had low grass. Libby Carpenter and Laverne Van Marter, br hud the lowest number of putts. In the men's foursome, Eddie Gunderson and Judge Carmkh ael won low gross. Golf balls were given for prizes. According to Phil Mahoney, chairman for intra-club play, a pot luck barbecue will be held Saturday, May 17, golf starting at 3.O0 p.m., the barbecue fol lowing. For those who have not attended our "really fun" bar becue, this Is how It works. Each person brings his own meat, to be cooked on the open barbe cue pit, and either a salad or dessert by each couple. What vou bring Is determined by the first letter in your last name. One Saturday the A's to M's will bring salad and the N's to Z's the dessert. At the next barbecue. this will be reversed. A schedule for summer's Sun day play will be in the mail to all members this week. Watch for your turn to take charge for the day. The Dick Carpenters and the Ed Hlem stras will be hosts for this com ing Sunday. Starting time will be 4:00 p.m. Don't forget to call Ed Hiem stra to offer your help with the building of the porch. !
