PACK S A
In the "plans, dreams, bright
Ideas and other brainstorms cat
egory, the Klamath Falls Parks
and Recreation Department is
hatching plans lor the biggest proj
ect to appear on the Klamath
Falls scene in years, a chip and
putt golf course, just inside the
main gate at Moore Park.
This type of golf is being met
with popularity throughout t h e
country by all types and sizes of
golfers, from the country club pro
to the tyros. Make no mistake,
nine-hole par three golf is not a
poor substitute for customary golf,
it's merely a cutdown version o(
its 18-hole big brother.
The advantages of this type ol
golf are as numerous as golf balls
In a water hazard. Among these
advantages are that:
1. Only a small area is required
for such a course, as a conse
quence cost for construction
maintenance, and operation will
be lower, making the cost to the
general public considerably lower.
2. Shorter playing areas allow
the golfer to finish faster, thus al
lowing the working man a chance
to participate and the weekend
golfer a chance to extend his play.
3. A regulation nine-hole course
Is available for play from dawn to
about two hours before dark (as
suming it takes two hours to com
plete a round), and if the course
becomes lighted, additional time
can be added. This is important
because it will allow the 8 to 5
o'clock man to engage in golf
ing. 4. The veteran golfer, with the
need to try for distance elimi
nated, can work on his short game
and putting techniques. The par
3 duplicates almost all the ap
proach and putting problems the
golfer is likely to find on a regu
lation course.
5. Golf beginners learn the game
more quickly and enjoyably on the
chip and putt course where the
errant shot .is less severely pen
alized and where the beginner is
less likely to constitute a hazard
or hindrance to the more expe
rienced players ahead of or behind
him.
6. Older players are benefited
because the lesser distance de
creases the exertion necessary to
play chip and putt golf. '
The lpcation picked for this fu
ture golf course is ideally suited
for such use. In the past, this sec
tion of Moore Park has been used
for nothing except growing forage
which is cut and sold. Such a
course will not only give more
people an opportunity to play golf,
but also enhance the looks of the
park and increase the utilization of
en area which is presently of no
value as park space.
Recreation Director George
Price and his assistants will wel
come any suggestions anyone has
concerning the development of
such a golf course. It might be
added that this course is not just
in the realm of theory. As soon
as weather conditions permit, a
trial green wil be prepared to find
out the most feasible soil-cinder-bed
rock combination for this lo
cale.
ALL
WE HEAR

"NYET!"
"Nyet" is the Russian word for
"no." To 76 million oppressed
people behind the Iron Curtain
in captive nations, "nyet" is a
hated word. "Nyet" to freedom
of speech, "nyet"to freedom of
the press, "nyet" to the right to
know the truth, "nyet" to all the
freedoms we Americans take for
granted.
But freedom cannot be taken
for granted. It has always been
won by toil, money and blood
and must be zealously guarded.
RADIO FREE EUROPE helps
you protect your freedom by
bringing the truth and a glimpse
of freedom to people who live in
the dark world of communist lies.
RADIO FREE EUROPE needs
your dollars! Freedom-loving
Americans are its only means of
support. President Eisenhower
himself has warned us not to
take freedom for granted, not to
take chances with our own future.

New Federal Pension Law
Discussion Set Wednesday
The public is invited to hear a
discussion of the new federal pen
sion law for veterans and their
widows and children at a meeting
to be held in the Fremont School
Auditorium at 8 p.m. Wednesday,
February 24, T. D. Case, Klamath
County veterans service officer,
announced.
Shirley T. Brannock. contact rep
resentative at the Veterans Ad
ministration Domiciliary, Camp
White, will describe the new law
in detail and answer questions sub
mitted from the audience.
The- new act, Public Law 86-
211, will award pension to veter
ans, widows and children on the
basis of need, Case said. Pay
ments will be on a graduated
scale, depending on individual out
side incomes. A person already
in receipt of pension on June 30,
19t0, will be given his or her
choice as to whether pension is lo
be based on the present law or
the new one. Pension entitlement
arising after June 30 can be based
only on the new act.
"The new act will make many
veterans, unremarried widows and
children eligible for the first time

lo pension based on nonservice
connected disability or death."
Case said. For example, he said,
it removes the requirement that a
World War II or Korean Condicl
veteran must have had a service
connected disability in order for
his widow or children lo be eligi
ble for pension, thus placing them
on an equal footing with depen
dents of World War I veterans.
Some persons will be eligible to
higher pension payments than
heretofore. Others will qualify for
pension for the first time by rea
son of higher income ceilings.
On March 1 all those presently
on the pension rolls will have an
important decision to make, Case
explains. Each will receive a new
income questionnaire which is to

Brannock will clarify the dis

to enable persons receiving pen
sion to make the right choice.
Once the new act has been select
ed, an individual can never return
to the benefits of the old one, and
a mistake in judgment could result
in substantially smaller pension
payments for the future.
The legislation docs not affect
compensation paid to veterans or
dependents for service connected
disability or death.
