The Old Lady and I have been
caught in the toiLs of golf this
sununer, for the first time, and the
remits ere shocking. You've prob-
ably heard of golf widows. Well
we have a couple of golf waifs a
our house these days, The way
our kids are neglected in favor
of a little white pill -es enough to
bring the welfare officials knock-
ing at the door.
The only time they see their
father is Mien he drives the baby•
sitter down to the house, •before
tearing off to the golf course.
They can't get within ten feet of
their mother eany more. She's out
in the baent yard, hammering a
little sponge practice ball around
with a golf club,. and it isn't safe
to be near her.
Kim came running in the other
day, crying. She thought she'd
been struck by lightning. But it
was only a plate -sized piece of
mother's mighty swings, landing on
her head when she wasn't looking•
The place,. which was pretty
seedy to begin with, is beginning
to look loke a rabbit warren, with
great bald patches all over the
lawn. c,The only thing that is doing
well on the golf is the garden.
After I'd replaced a couple of
acres of sods on the lawn, I got fed
up and made my wife go out. and
practice swinging in our four-
square -foot garden. She's got all
the weeds sliced off nicely and the
vegetables aren't high enough yet
for her swing to bother them.
Young Hugh is getting into the
spirit Of the thing. Depreved of
maternal attention and coinfort,
is getting this own back by sitting
on the porch and needling his old
lady. He's picked up a lot of golf
lingo, and distorts it to his own
ends, as "Keep your feet together,
head well up, bend that arm and
circle all," he heckles. Five 'min
utes of this and his mother is
hitting the ground so hard you'd
think she was digging a well, or
swinging, highesheealmostetakes-
off her own kneecap.
My fishing rod lies mouldering
in the earner, my hip boots Ian-
guish in tlie back shed, my new
minnow pail, that I got for my
birthday, eetains its pristine plen-
dour. The bass are really enjoying
life this summer, as Smiley, the
terror of the lakes, is otherwise
occupied.
Golf has a lot to be /said for it,
though. Sitting around at the first
tee at the 'golf course, watching
them tee off, is mere amusing than
watching thee "tEde ttultivan show.
There's this couple, see. He's a
beautiful hunk of man, a natural
athlete. She's a frai? little thing
who wooldn't tip the scales at 100
pounds,' soaking wet.
She's too nervous to drive; with
all those people watching, so he
goes first. He saunters up to the
ban, takes a couple of mighty
practice swings, flexes his bulging
biceps, and, addresses the ball. His
swing is a thing of perfection, the
club coming around in a smooth,
smashing arc. He misses the ball.
Next time, he smashes it 47 feet,
to the left. The little woman,
shaking like a leaf, gets up there.
She swings tithe club around like
a baseball bat, looking as much
at home as a cow on ice, and cracks
one right down the fairway.
*
G-olf and _fishing. have quite a
lot en common, I find. The angner
keeps switching from one lure to
another, hoping for a miracle. The
golfer keeps changing clubs, for
the same reason. And you're just
as furious when you miss a two -
foot . putt as you are when you
pull ring bass up to the side of
the boat, end he decides to stop
teasing you rdospits e4e.ut the hook.
Another +similarity is that they're
both so cheap. For fishing, all yoU
need Is about $200 worth of rods,
reels, lures, waders, minnow pails,
fish waters and assorted junk, plus
an outboard motor. And it only
costs you time OT four dollars
each time you go out, for Wet,
gas, bait and beer.
* * *
Golf is just as ecottomkal. By
the time you've boughl clubs, bags,
carts, shoes, balls, for two people,
you're only in for about $300.
And it'e a mere three or four
dollars each time you go out, for
gas, green fees, and new balls.
You save on the beer, as you can't
drink beer While playing lf, be-
cause you cant play goLf w you
drink
There's nothing quite so satisfy-
ing as 18 holes of golf on a nice
stitrimer day. You come home with
one wrist dangling useless from
striking the hard ground eo hard
with your club. Your hair Is like
dried .hay. Your eyeballs are sear-
ed to little Ted marbles. You've
pulled a muscle In your back. But
you've hywered your +wore from
149 to 147. All else is nothing.
As you may have gathered by
now, we've .gone for golf hook,
slice and sinker. We WTI hook and
511ce with the hest of Sim, but we
find it very difficult to sink 'en

The mayor said that pressure of

He had enjoyed his association witb
the band, Jee stated, and he regret-
ted that lie was forced to give it
up.
When Mayor Rucking agreed to
take over the band's leadership in
June laet year, it was underetood
tbat it would be a temporely ar-
rangement until a permanent band -
mead could -be secured. Until
the mayor agreed to fill the breach,
the pointlar girls' band was ie
danger of 'folding up.
During tne winter, he conducted
eight practices a week and trained
17 new members for the band.
This summer, be had continued
to devote at least three nights a
week to the band.
With various other civic duties
and 'business to attend to, he
found he could not maintain this
pace. After all, he pointed out,
he isn't quite as young as he used
to be.

appearance as leader of the band

THEIR AVOWED
PURPOSE
"Why do we associate beer with
the home? People drink beer in
other places. Why not include
-statement by -the advertising agent
ers Foundation.
The answer? "The home still rep-
resents the greatest opportunity
for the expansion of sales. The
home is also the -ultimate proving
ground for any product. Once it is
accepted in the home, it beccnnes
pert of the established American
way of living.
More beer served in American
homese then, means more sales, a
stronger bulwark against the
threat of prohibition, and greater
social. acceptance, and that is why
your advertising concentrates on
the home."
Their avowed purpose to get beer
into every home.
