    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.
