DOINCS AROUND THE GOLF LINKS
(By Gravy

Now it seems that there are GER
tain players on the golf course
who will tell you what good
score they made the day before
providing it was good oneD.
Should it have been a bad score,
they won't even tell the score
keeper. All of which is absolute
ly no pleasure to the guy who did
the beating part. However, gentle
reader. rest assured that the win
ner tells various and sundry per-
sons what happened.
For instance, on Sunday morn
ing our genial Postmaster was no
where around the place. For last
week he beat himself so badly that
he was ashamed to arrive to be
jeered by such guys as Ii or per-
haps Old Bye. Anyway. in his
stead was his friend of former
matches, Mr.. Cookie Mesa, he of
the electric personality. 1t seems
further that for about a half doz-
en- holes at the beginning of the
day, Mr.. Cookie could not get the
sleep out of his eyes and there
fore turned in some sort of So
score. But on the back nine, he
was going home, and stopped with

Cruickshank, who has never got

hates to take more of score than
is necessary and had As on the
first round. But toward the end

Otto were some seven up but, of
course, Lii and Russ say they were

The Strunk- Russell combine
must be slipping because Willie
Kemp and Johnny Kirschy got
through the game with one point

along to help keep things in
jovial mood. Mr.. Strunk (the Re-

couple of good scores but they
were not good enough to balance
Johnny Kirschenbaum, who gave
Willie too good support. Perhaps
it should be- the other way around
because Johnny beat Doc by some
six strokes which makes the laun-
dry man very happy indeed and
causes him to say that Doc was
helping him and not the other way
around.

the winners of the tournament

Actual figures on the value of forest
growth III controlling and preventing
floods are brought out in tests by the
Forest Service of the Department of Ae-

In the Ohio Valley, forest soil is IS
to 80 per cent more porous than field
soil and absorbs so times as much water
as bare soil. Forest soils absorb more
water not only in single storms, but in
successive rains. an important item in
flood control.
On q small watersheds at the head
waters of the Mississippi, the flood flow
from forcsted watersheds for one wear
was only 80 cubic feet of water per sec
ond per square mile But the flood water
from grassed and abandoned agricul-
tural lands was 432 cubic feet, more
than 10 times as much.
