A little bedraggled, her wings q
shade droopy, but with her head held
high, the dove of peace hovers today
over the Middle Atlantic Profession
al Golfers Association. That is. the
white dove hovers if the Virginia
professionals are willing to play ball,

more brethren literally halfway,
toss out all their differences and
once more become just one big,
happy family.
An outgrowth of the unhappy de-

her immaculate plumage if the boys

So now, if the Virginia boys, head

Otherwise it seems that q move to
