MT. LAKE PARK

eff you want to have the kind of a
town
Like the kind of town you like,
You needn't slip your clothes in grip
And start on long, long hike.
You'll only find what you left behind,
For there's nothing really new.
It's a knock at yourself when you
knock your town
1t isn't the town-it's you'll"
For very long time we have heard
and listened to criticisms regarding
the Park. Just what is wrong, we do
not know. But certainly something is
wrong. We all know that the "Old
Guard" is passing. By the "Old Guard
we mean those loyal souls who came
first when the Park was in its infancy.
They struggled to keep the Park a
summer resort and for many years
succeeded. Now we are a town-incor-
porated-and under town laws. We
believe the town officials are trying to
do their part. To US there seems no
reason why the Park should not be a
summer resort and a decent place in
which to live in winter. We have been
told that there are pigs, cows, chick
ems and other animals being kept
within the environs of the place. This
if true, should not be. Certainly there
is ground enough on the outskirts
where people can raise all of these
things without bringing them into the
Park proper.
Lately several interested persons
have done a great deal toward the
Identification Of the Park. Civic pride
has been stirred and each day some
one makes a suggestion for some
small thing that will aid the Park i'm
provement.
We have been a long time getting tc
! the point we want to make. Here il
is: Every time something has to be
done or is pointed out as advantageous
to the Park we hear the same old cry
''Why don't they do it," They! They!
Just who are They? It has reached
the place where it isn't question OF
/ "They" at all. Now it's "We"! "We"!
must do this and eve" shall do that
not "they".
May we quote this, and we wish you
would all read the whole poem:
"Have you heard of the terrible family
They,
And the dreadful venomous things
They say?

~ HE scoring season Is upon us
on the local golf courses as the
lusty lads who hit 'em a mile
L crack par with monotonous
regularity. 1t comes along every season
anywhere from mid-July on, and it
lasts until hot weather vanishes,
around the middle of September. Con-
tributing factors to the busting of par
are fast fairways, fairly slow putting
greens and that something which warm
weather does to golf balls which makes
'em longer than in cool weather. In
case you didn't know, your golf ball, Of
any make, is from 10 to 80 yards
longer in 90-degree temperature than
1t Is when the thermometer reaches
down toward the freezing point.
But, be that as it may, the bows
really are rolling 'em far and wide
over the local courses nowadays and it
won't be long now before some course
records are cracked. They always are.
when Midsummer comes along,
FOR example, there have been q
brace OF Cos scored over two tough
washington courses over the last few
days. Miller B. Stevinson, the Columbia
Country Club champion. and former
District titleholder. made one of 'em.
Bobby Brownell. the tow-headed Dis
trict champ. made the other. For
stevinson his SO was only one Of many.
He's had as low as 66 over his home
course.
But for Bobby Brownell the
50 was . cherished dream.
Never before this season had Bobby
broken 10. not even last year when he
won the District amateur and District
Junior championships. But Bob has
busted par twice this year, both times
with SO and both times over the Manor
Country Club course.
THEN there we're Martin r. West
- golf chairman at Columbia, and
stAlwart Tommy Webb. former Federal
League champ, both scoring 70s over
the Columbia layout. And don't think
that's any soft spot. Those watered
fairways, where the ball gets little roll
don't help the scoring on that golt
course.
Nor have the pros been idle in the
business of scoring. There was Bob
Barnett's 66 at Chevy Chase a week
ago, and there was Roland MacKen-
