IL in indianapolis. AT most of
the courses players in barge
numbers We're out early to get

BUSINESS played too heavily on their
minds.

No doubt the biting wind Of Sat
urday frightened away many golf

under par on holes one, four, six,

Larry Bloss of tho Dayton Ohio
District Golf Association was in
