was more an' indication of Franco'

seems to be the time of the . year
for all screwball bets and screwy_
contests. The latest of these cur-
rent Cut -ups, which - should be of
interest to anglers and golfers,
consisting of a contest in which
Dave Reddick, Ontario all-round
casting champion, pitted his artis-
tryy with. the rock and reel against
the prowess of Stanley. Smith,
golfer.- • ' ' '
The occasion for the unique ex-
periment was the Montreal Elec-
trotypers and Engravers ' annual
golf field day at .the St. Johns,
'Quebec, golf' course. The plans •
called for a eohtest• between Red -
dick and the winner of the low
gross in the tourney' in a five -hole
match .under the rules and'4condi-
tions outlined below,
At'first it looked likeka. very in-
teresting contest. Stanle Smith,
who won the low gross honours, is •
a pretty fair golfer while Reddick

240 feet per cast. Unfortunately,
rain which swept the Montreal
district forceda halt to the odd
match after only two holes had
been played, each man winning
one.
Roddick used a baitcasting outfit.
and a % .ounce plug. •,iiia. casts
pn. the fairways• were measured to
the' point where the plug stopped
moving and o• the greens where
the plug struck the green. •'It was

ried etwo extra rods which he used.

striking distance of the green.
The golfer conceded the first
