So many boys were out enjoy

that there were not many players
left in town. Most of the play
ing was in anticipation of the
dinner match this Thursday. Even
Hurricane Eddie was out batting a
few around Sunday; once it went
in the pond (the report it was
casual water but it was deeper
than the place where o. K. went
in the other day.. Then our hero
had his caddie put a ball down in
the middle of the fairway( to
make everybody think that is
where he knocked it) and then
made a good shot toward the
hole. But of course Mamup &
Caddie claim this was only prac-
tice anyway. But let us get on
with our Sunday story:
