NEW SYSTEM
WILL BEGIN
TOMORROW
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON
Beginning tomorrow, the Ban
nckh11rr Clllh will throw its golf

Beginning tomorrow, the Ban
nockburn Club will throw its golf
course open to non-members.
These non-members will be
permitted to play the course dur
ing the week and will be asked
to pay only green fee of SO
cents. The green fee for non-
members on Saturdays, Sundays
and holidays will be 81.
These non-memberS will not
have the privileges of the club
but will be provided with locker
room and towel service. There
will be small charge for towel
service.
Opening the BannOckburn
course to nOn-memberS, officials
of the club feel, will prove Of a
benefit in many ways.
It will help bolster the sagging
Bannockburn Golfers and will also
give many unattached golfers the
opportunity of testing their skill
on a. course that will bring out
the utmost in the player.
"Huh. A 20 to beat? Guess
I'll have to sink this putt"
And Sandy Armour, pro at the
Congressional Country Club, did
as he boasted, dropping a 25-
footer for a birdie on the 18th
hole at the Columbia Country
Club.
This birdie gave Armour and
his partner, Cliff McKimmie OF
4he White Flint Club, better
ball of SO to win the pro-pro
best ball eighteen holes medal
play tournament of the Middle
Atlantic Professional Golfers AS
6ociation.
It was necessary for McKim-
mie and Armour to better 10
and they arrived at the 18th
tee with a better ball of 66,
requiring a birdie to come u11-
der the wire first.
Mel Shorey, of East Potomac
Park, and Bob Barnett, of Chevy

take the early lead. Later, along
came George Diffenbaugh and AL
Treder of Manor Club, Master

If the ball is topped or half
topped to the right the indica-
tions are you are lifting your

productive of slicing, since it
leads to the collapsing left arm.

Economists, Who Keep

BY THOMAS l.. STOKES

Washington, Sept 25. iUP)-
Government economists who keep
a close watch on business develop
ments foresaw to-day prospect
of decided improvement through
fall buying.
To Assistant Secretary of Com
merce Julius Klein the most en-
couraging factor is stability in the
price curve. He said this reflects a
balance not hitherto manifest in
the depression. 1t links up directly
with anticipations of revived buy
ing, he said.
"A balance in a situation of this
kind is a healthy sign" he said in
an interview with the United Press,
and told why, though he does not
attempt to make any hard and fast
forecasts.
1.-THE remarkable balance that
the price curve has maintained for
several weeks is highly interest
ing" he said. This has not hap
pened before in the time since the
crash came in October. 1929. Since
then, up to a few weeks ago, the
price curve was gyrating."
This seems to DR. Klein to signi-
fly renewed confidence. both on the
part of bsiness and the consumer.
