posing handling the courts without
precipitating their relapse into 9
semi-tropical vegetation state Of
growth. One Is that the courts may
be turned over to WPA mainten'
ance, II such arrangements can be
made. In that event all fees will be
dissolved, the courts will be made
public. The second revolves around
the contingency that mayhap the
courts can be dressed with a tai
mat surface when the tarring crew
gets into town for the street job
Well, those are possibilities
They might alleviate the difficulty
=. Position Of the members now
is they find themselves with the
hot potato Of maintenance on their
hands. Hold 1t and 1t gets too hot;
drop 1t and 1t squashes on the
floor.
This Is all leading up the
fact that q doubles tennis tour
nament has been called for Sum
day. It Is to embrace an entry
list Of club members only with
out charge. Other doubles
teams who wish to compete,
that is non-members, win be
cordially welcomed to do SO but
will have the added attraction
Of paying regular fees. :. Reg
istrations for the tourney can
be made at this office or at the
Tavern before Sunday. Pair
ing and charts will be prepared
before the tournament. -.
Local boys, that is schooled in the
ways Of golf on this course, cut in
to the Alex Resorters tournament
picture with a quirk. In the sixth
flight were Pat Dubois, examiner
with the state banking department
and Bob Schoenhoff, vacationist
from the Federal Reserve bank. Not
so unusual. Except that both Pat
and Bob were eliminated in their
first rounds and were competitors
in the consolation round in which
Bob dumped Pat. :. And it's this
same Pat who won the short STOP
tourney a few Sundays ago at the
local club, and last Thursday was
winner in the weekly series Of blind
DOGGY handicap events. -.
A summer setting is this. Down
the street Monday noon went a
string of fish with a freckled-faced
overall-clad, barefoot lad of a doz-
en- years on the other end of the
stringer. Where'd va get the
fish," someone challenged. 1--WE
fished 'em," was the lads reply
Which after all is what happened
And liked the modesty of the
statement. You just ask any adult
fishermen how he got his fish, and
unless he is guarding some million
dollar secret, he'll launch into an
explanation that'll make you wish
you'd never asked. !. But not this
lad. He just "fished EN-" The boy
is 12-year-old Joseph Denzer, who
seemed in command of a trio of
brothers, just returning from fish
ing excursion. Behind him trudged
Loren, somewhat younger. He car
ried a bullhead proudly-his sole
contribution to the catch and he
was going to have 1t with him. +.
Then came the youngest, little
brown, five-year-old lad who was
content to let his elder brothers
carry the string. =. But even he
had caught two of the seven pick
erel on the string. Continued
printing with questions wheedled
from the triumvirate that their fish
ing had been done in the river be-
low the dam. Their equipment: a
cane pole, a daredevil. Their mode
of approach; apparently something
phenomenal. Said Joseph: Zone
dragged me into the river"
Dog days when the days are
steaming hot and the nights
muggy have moved in and Sank
Lake has turned the siclkly
green. It's waters are too warm
to make swimming enjoyable,
the green makes 1t repugnant.
=. Now there Is no place to
dunk a heat-toasted torso.
For those who live along the
lake, with its cool looking ex-
panse before them, it must be
pretty tough-hke wanting
drink on the desert with a mir
age before your eyes. -.
And so both DR.. and Mrs. M. G.
Franta went to the Resorters tour
ney at Alex. And quoth the Doc
about his exhibition in the 10th
flight: "Wbrst round I ever shot. ;.
