Player Gives New Note
to Usual Golf Alibi

There were two things In George
Tweep's life that meant everything
to him-his family and his golf. It
is really difficult to understand how
he managed to find time for both.
At any rate, his wife and five chill
dren complained of no neglect and
his golf score averaged around IS.
George had won the right to rep
resent his club in the state golf
tournament. During the period pre-
ceding the final matches, Mrs. Tweep
presented him with a sixth child.
Another man would either have
withdrawn from all sports, or would
have deserted his family at such a
time. George, however, was prepared
for the situation. A putting green
his home Thus he could practice
and be near the newest Tweep at
the same time.
One afternoon an appreciative gal
lery came over to watch George do
his putting. From all angles, he
tapped the ball into the cup-his
skill was little short of amazing. AT
length he decided to try one more
and call it a day. 1t was q simple
six-footer, the kind he had been
making all afternoon.
He took his stance, held his
breath, drew back his putter slowly
and brought it forward smoothly. AT
the moment of impact, from within
the house came the disturbing wall
of the Tweep infant. Georges wrist
jerked-the sphere missed the cup
by a good three inches

for the Democratic nomination for

Former judge of the Madison
superior court, Ellis is one of the
outstanding leaders of Anderson.
He is known as a liberal and i'm
pressed the leaders here as being
of the school of public servants
founded by Marshall and Ralston.
Briefly, he told the workers: II
am for every measure that will rid
us Of the evils introduced under the
label of prohibition, but which mean
racketeering and drunkenness.
Il will vote for the repeal of the
eighteenth amendment and for the
repeal of the Volstead act.
Il would rather vote for these
measures than the hesitant referen-
dunn which will delay legal return
to sobriety. Much as I dislike la
bells, I prefer to call myself a wet,

as the wettest Of the vets rather
than as a pussyfooter and dodger. "
