FAMOUS SEAGRAM GOLD CUP --When top-ranking U.S. and Can-
adian professional; converge on Royal Montreal Golf Club in search of
Thr Canadian Open championship, the Seagram Gold Cup and $10,800 in
price mon:y, Aug. 24-27, they will be playing at the oldest golf club in
North America—the "Mother of Golf' on this continent.
It was back in 1875 that the famous club which now has suburban
Dixie -as its locale first came into being, when seven Montreal gentlemen
got together and resolved "that those present should form themselves into
a golf club to be called the Montreal Golf Club." •
The ionnders laid out an 11 -hole course on Fletcher's Field—now in
the heart ..f Montreal—on the eastern slopes of Mount Royal. and there
they played each Wednesday and Saturday. They enjoyed the game
secure in the knowledge that •it would make no severe demands on their
purses: for in those days clubs coat $1.10 each, balls were eight cents, and
a member's annual dues carte to $2.50. The club added tate prefix "Royal"
to it, name in 1884 on authority from Queen Victoria.
As the years went by, the popularity Of the game grew steadily and
the 3 lr,c:tcr's Field links became more and more crowded. In 1896, the
directors ouserved that "it requires Hauch roam to perform this game with
propriety" and began to look around for suitable land on which to build
a naw course. They found that land at Dixie.
Today, Royal Montreal has a clubhouse built to accommodate a mem-
bership of more than 1,000, and its members play over two championship
courts, both running 0,500 yards in length and both with-% par of 72. For
its mi, iOetice and its variety, the South course has been selected for
this year's Open.

I sometime; think that flies ora
A good deal like Stalin and "his
boys". When 'bur side" is relaxing
and taking things easy "they" are
on the job alt the time. Which is,
of course, just a• roundabout way
of saying "never let up on the fles."
When your first spray stops kill-
ing therm it's time to treat your
buildings again.
* * *
The weather most of us have been
having this past month or so has
been favorable to flies. Alternate
showers and sunshine were hard on
ily-killing chemicals applied on the
collide of buildings.
If you want good fly control,
you have to keep at the job. Sani-
tation routes first. S7cep manure
hauled, feeding floors clean and so
on. * *
Flies will breed even in danlp
*oil around tanks or where feed-
lots drain. You can treat such
Areas with one ounce of borax per
square foot.
• * *
No fly -killing chemical lasts for -
aver --- or even all season — out-
doors, When it no longer kills flies
—when you can find live flies on
treated surfaces early in the morn-
ing—it is probably time to spray
again, .
* * *
There is a dollar -and -cents rea-
son for summer fly control. Keep-
ing the flies down is one way to
brant hot -weather production. In-
ereasesntp to 20 per cent have been
reported when fly -free herds were
checked against herds with no fly
control.
* * *
You have several choices of fly
killers. Bur there are only two you
can use on dairy cattle or on the
inside of dairy barns and milk
houses. .
*
These are lindane and methoxy-
chlor. This pair is approved for use
around milk cows and buildings
where milk is handled.
* * *
On the outside of barns or in
other livestock buildings you can
use DDT. Or lindane. Methyoxy-
chlor could be used too, but many
farmers say it doesn't have the
lasting quality of the other two
chemicals.
* * *
Beef cows, stock cattle on pas-
ture or steers in the feedlot also
need treatment. Benefits from fly
control aren't confined to milk
cows. * * t
Tests on fat steers show that
summer gains can be boosted at
least one-fourth pound per day if
flies are kept under control. Spray
both cattle and buildings. .
* * *
Beef cattle probably wilt need a
treatment every two weeks or so.
You can use DDT. lindane or
nlethoxyrhlor on them. With the
dairy cows, don't use DDT.
* * *
Some dairymen nse tine pyre-
nones an dairy cows. Pyrenone
sprays have a quick knock -down
but not the lasting ability of the
ethers. So you have to use them
once a day.
There is one important thing to
remember about any chemical you
use: Use it only according to the
manufacturer's instructions. Read
the label. Then follow directions.
When we first saw the title of a
new 'book on golf announced as
"IT GOES W1-IERE YOU HIT
IT" we were reminded of an old-
time vaudeville act, which some of
you will no doubt remember, It
was the one where the comedian,
after mai€filly struggling to master
the trombone, winds up be saying
pathetically, "I blow it in so sweet
—but it always comes out so
r -r -r -rotten."
* *
For in the days when we played
golf, or went through the motions
of so doing, it was our firm convic-
tion.
onvicttion. that the little white pellet was
determined to go ANYWHERE
ELSE BUT where we hit it.
* *
Now, after a look through the
aforementioned book by George
Louis Cumming, better known to
thousands as "Lou" Cumming, and
famous golfing son of an even more
famous golfing father, we are con-
vinced that we were mistaken. In
fact, we believe that if this book had
been published back before the war
--(we're not saying which war)
we would now be an active golfer,
instead of sitting on the sidelines
and sneering at the perspiring divot -
diggers, out there in the broiling
son, trying to look as if they were
having fan.
z * *
For Lou Cumming, in bit book,
approaches the subject of golf in
a manner tl'at is both novel and
interesting. "It is obvious," he
says in an early chapter, "that
when two golfers play together,
other things being equal, the one
who is comfortable doesn't have to
beat the other. He just WAITS—
WAITS for that person's discom-
fort to overcome him. And it does,
EVERY TIME."
Now, that ]manner of talk makes
real score, in almost any sport. The
kind of hitter that pitchers hate to
see facing then are those that are
—like old Ilaue Ruth used to be—
"loose as ashes at the plate." That
sort of athlete is relaxed He's
comfortable. Yet most golfers we
know, especially those tubo have
taken courscs of ordinary coaching,
re so tensed up thinking of what
they must do, what they mustn't
do, and so forth, that it's a wonder
they ever bit the ball at all, let alone
1.et some fun on; of the game.
Here's another quote that will
a:ve you the general idea of the
book far better than any continent
of ours, "If I said that Joe Louis
bit Max Schmeling a blow but at
the moment of impact he was off
balance, I would imply that the
blow was not fully effective. Why?
• Because balance can be defined as
the position in which a person can
best WITHSTAND a force from
any direction. It is logical to con-
clude that if this balanced person
can best WITHSTAND a force
from any direction HE CAN BEST
APPLY A FORCE IN ANY
DIRECTION."
Even to a nor-golier like ourself
the book is very readable, and cara-
fe)
asyto follow. There are over eighty
pictures showing clearly, point by
r,in-, what the author is trying to
get across—that the ball actually
)roes where you hit it, and that it's
jc,st as easy to hit it on a line
toward the hole, as into the rough
or cut of bounds.
* *
By no means the least interest-
; ing feature of the„ book is the brief
but touching tr'oute Lou pays to
his father, the late George Cum-
ming, father of Canadian golf. whose
death early this year brought sor-
row to countless thousands of golf-
ers the world over. "He taught me,
but it must have been something
like teaching a wife to drive a car,

I questioned everything and my
'whys' must have driven him to
desperation at times — then, one
lesson I remembered his having
given me soddenly made sense. 1
could hear him say in his thick
Scotch brogue 'Stand up and hit
the damned thing'."
* K
Lou Cunming's theory of relaxed,
comfortable golfing is the result of
lengthy and varied experience. Born
in 1906, by the time he was fifteen
he was acting as professional—dur-
ing his summer Holidays from school
—at what he modestly deserbes as
"a small nine - hole course that
couldn't afford a full-time profes-
sional." Since then,' with a couple
of years out for war activities, his
life has been pretty Hauch taken
up with the game.
* * 5,
"After V -J Day," he writes, "with
the prospect of civilian life looming
ahead of me my thoughts naturally
turned to golf once again. In retro-
spect, my former teaching methods
did not satisfy me when compared
with my new knowledge of teach-
ing technique. Wasn't teaching;
Keep your head down, etc. really
teaching a NEGATIVE SYSTEM?
Wasn't this really teaching them
that if they did all this, they would
not miss the ball. I felt that if I were
going to return to the teaching of
golf I wanted a POSITIVE SYS-
'I'EM—something definite I could
tell people to do that would make
them HIT TI -IE BALL,"
:0 :r *
Space will not permit further
comment or quotation, but we can
say this—we honestly believe that
Lou Cumming has achieved his
goal. We think that IT GOES
WHERE YOU HIT IT is a book
that any golfer, front duffer to par-
buster, will enjoy and profit by
reading. After finishing it we were
inclined to misquote Holy Writ and
bay- "Almost thou persuadest ns to
be a—golfer." We understand that
the book is not, as yer. available at
book stores, but anybody who can't
wait may get a copy—price $4.S0 --

HARPOONED BY A
CROCODILE
Earning a gond living by har-
pooning, shooting or trapping about
70 crocodiles a week is 34 -year-old
Samuel Tweeddale, an ex -Irish
Guardsman who went to Africa af-
ter the war because he wanted a
job which offered some excitement.
Well, he's found the excitement
all right, because it's no easy task
harpooning crocodiles front a col-
lapsible boat on the Semliki River
in Central Africa,
The other day a crocodile he had
harpooned shook itself so vigor-
ously that the harpoon was flung
back. It was.a good shot by t he
crocodile, for the harpoon struck
Tweedale in the chest. Fortunately
there was little power behind it
and he escaped with a few bruises.
A 15 -Year -Old Boy "Discovers
The Secret Of Television
One morning Phil came to school
early and approached Tolman, who
was sitting at his desk busily pre-
paring for the day's work, and asked
to join•the senior chemistry class,
which was taught by Tolman. The
request was an astonishing one,
since entering the class in the mid-
dle of the term would require that
he make up the first three months
work of the course.:, Tolman told
hint that he would have to wait
until his senior year, that it would
be folly for a freshman to think of
doing the work of a senior, The
boy left, and Tolman thought he
had seen the last of him in the
chemistry class for three years. But
he was mistaken: the next day Phil
appeared again and asked the pri-
vilege of just sitting in with the
group. The request was granted,
and Farnsworth soon -proved a
worthy student. His questions so
penetrating that he often stayed
after school with Tolman to thrash
then out. It finally resulted in his
coming early and staying late and
getting special tutoring front Tol-
man beyond the requirements of the
senior -class course,
It was not extraordinary-, then,
that Phil confided in Tolman hit
purpose to become an inventor and
give it as the principal reason for
his eager pursuit of scientific
knowledge.
Phil continued to enjoy astonish-
ing his young brothers and sisters
with his vivid descriptions of what
he had learned of this and that
science, how he was going to make
great things from his knowledge
and become famous.
The idea of television was not
new in the realm of the human
mind, but Phil Farneworth's con-
ception of harnessing the photo-
electric cell and the cathode ray
tube in a simple television system
was new and original.
The scheme became an obses-
sion with him. He must, tell some-
one about it. He suet discuss it
to clarify the details in his own
mind. Tolman was the logical con-
fidant. Finally when lie felt he had
the plan well worsted out, he de-
termined to reveal it to hit mentor.
The study hall with the large
blackboard at .the front was usually
vacant during the last period of the
day. With the routine work for the
day ;,ccontplished, Phil would re.
pair to his room to prepare himu-
self for the after.school srseie,n in
chemistry with "Folmar. ]'itis
stentc.1 to hint the logical pincv to
reveal to Toinian the 11tt,"il; '0 the
trltaision st:hem, ':or. 1 a bees
,l .ting him rrr t, r .-, if his
waking hours for the past months.
With the sense of the dramatic
which was growing to be an es-
sential part of his personality, he
planned to surprise his instructor
by drawing a full outline of his
scheme on the blackboard before
Tolman came in.
When Tolman entered the room,
the boy was not in his customary
seat poring over a book, but was
finishing a blue -print type of dia-
gram that covered half of the
blackboard which stretched across
the front wall of the room.
Tolman stepped to the front of
the study hall and sat down to
watch the boy as he completed his
diagram with nervous, almost fid-
gety strokes. When he had finished
the drawing be placed chalk and
eraser on the base- of the black-
board, walked over to thc end, and
picked up a pointer. Returning to
the center in front of Tolman, he
announced with eager, half -sup-
pressed excitement that this was
his new television system,
Tolman asked what this had to
do with chemistry. Phil then went
on to explain that this new inven-
tion of his had really been occupy-
ing Inc thought for a long time and
he wanted to explain it to him.
There was not time between the
close of the school session and the
supper (tour to go into all the de-
tails of this scheme as Phil 'Visual-
ized it. It took many more eve-
nings, In these sessions, chemistry
was forgotten and Phil stood before
the blackboard posing the problems
and solutions embracing the gen-
eral system of television. It oust
be remembered that this plan was
unfolded evening after evening in
the Rigby High School (Idaho) by
a fifteen -year-old boy in 1922, when
sound radio was yet in its infancy.
