the use of the club pool to the Presi-

THE pool is attractive and Is so
located that considerable privacy can
be afforded to those using it," says a
letter to Col Marvin H. Mcintyre of
the White House secretarial staff -''
I'VE would be proud to tender the
use of the pool to the President and
any of his official family whom he might
suggest until such time as more appro-

be glad to place such restrictions
around its use as would secure his pri-

Y you couldn't find voice in
" favor of the larger golf cups
among the players of the
Argyle Country Club today.
They tried the 6-inch cups for a
week in a tournament in which most
of the club golfers competed and every
one of the "a entrants turned thumbs
down on the larger cups in favor of
the regulation size tins. Although 1t
was generally agreed that scores were
lowered, there was no satisfaction in
sinking the short puts and the thrill
of dropping the long ones was lost
An analysis of the score sheets by
club officials revealed that the larger
cups reduced the average scores by 8.6
strokes per round. The average score
of 65 players in the tourney just COM
pleted was 92.4 strokes, while the aver
age in tourney played last April with
the regulation size cups was l0l.
There were 80 brides made in the
tourney last week and % brides made
in the event last year.
A foursome composed Of Sidney
Sherwood, N. L. Saunders, Charles
Thurtell and j. D. Murray kept
record Of their puts last Saturday
when the 6-inch cups were in play
and the following day when the regu-
lation size cups were back in use
They found they averaged "a puts per
player with the larger cups and AZ puts
per player with the smaller cups.
NNLY four shots were holed from of
~ the green with the larger cups.
Frank Zuber rolled in 60-yard
pitch to the fifth green. Bill Di Este
pitched into the cup on the ninth hole
from about 80 yards away, and Sidney
Sherwood holed two shots from short
distance of the green.
The larger cups did not save any ap-
preciable time, either. The average
time for several foursomes playing to
the larger cups was found to be 3 hours
and 10 minutes, while with the smaller
cups the average was hours and 20
minutes
Nine players tied in the blind bogey
tourney using the 6-inch cups, at IA
and 70, which were the lucky numbers
They were: Forest Morrell, 99-25-74;
