f t 1 Brian ThompHon hits the water perfectly at the lleppner Municipal Pool. Brian is one of the many youngsters using the pool to Its limits during the hot weather. By MARIE McQUARRIE So it was warm (scorching, really ) Sunday, but that didn't stop golfers from golfing. There were some mighty crimson faces coming into the club house, most saying it "it sure was hot out there." Condon Golf Club and Kin ifra Golf Club were visitors and there were 26 men and 9 women, including Willow Creek Country Club members, out on the course. Some people probably think we were all "crazy with the heat," but everyone to his won game, so the TEE CUP says. Lesi Martin organized din ner for the play day, but was unable to be here on Sunday, so Judy Rickert took on the task of handling the buffet, and a very good job she did. Judy had the help of Happy Graham in the kitchen, which was appreciated, as Happy doesn't participate too often in our actual golfing and it was right nice of her to come out on that hot day and work. Suzanne Jepsen was also on the food end. Thanks to all you members who prepared the food that was brought down to the club house. It was a very welcome repast, after covering the whole course, once for the women, and twice for the men. Harriet Evans was there to help. Bev and Eddie Gunderson were head of the play for the day and were the starter outers. There was a shotgun start for the men, this being very practical on such a hot day. There was one foursome of girls, and also a "five some," which isn't really "kosher" in a tournament, but old "Tee Cupper" was the last one down to the course, so slipped in with the last foursome. She really knows better, but didn't want to play golf by herself. Now for the honors won. From Condon, Robert Alford had low gross; Dale Ashen felter, low net; and closest to the pin, Buss Dyer. 0 .LUlOk. "vnN OUAUTYUSaJllBAJijArTmJsai '63 Chevrolet, 4-dr.

Condon women winners were Dorothy Close, low gross; Karen Dyer, low net; Dee Hollen, long drive; and Louise Jackson, closest to the pin. s WCCC women winners were almost unanimous as Bev Gunderson received low gross, long drive and closest to the pin. Marie McQuarrie slipped in there to win low net, to break Bev's sweeping the field. Bev deserved all she won, as she is a dedicated and good golfer. Want to express our appre ciation to Bev and Eddie Gunderson for heading this day of our being hosts to Condon and Kinzua. They did it well. After dinner a Sole Survivor game was organized. Don Slinkard of Kinzua came in as first winner and our Doug Gunderson was second. We hope Kinzua and Condon had a good time, and we are glad so many came to visit us. Additional markers for tee ing off were used Sunday for the first time, the new ones ' being red, and old one white. The markers closest to the tees were used for the men's first nine, the others for the second nine. The women used the ones closest to the green. This new equipment was made by Clint McQuarrie, chairman of the grounds committee. Seven women were down Tuesday at 5 for their day. Most of these were new players, and it is nice to have them taking an interest. Now, if we could just get those who have golfed a lot more down there, we would have a good crowd. How about it?
