wilfred Hetzel, the basketball
trick shot artist, probably put on
the show of his career and before
an audience that topped even his
own astronomical estimates. :.
Last Thursday night appearing on
the Professor Quiz show in New
York, Hetzel won second place in
the skull-cracking game of wits
which netted him a cool fifteen
bucks. Behind at the half way
mark, Hetzel made the rally of his
career to answer correctly four
successive questions that vaulted
him to the next to the top spot.
Now Hetzel is showing his
proves on the basketball court to
all who'll look in Gotham.
Bob LATERAL was having a
bit of fun the other day pull
ing a Wimpy "go' ahead you
guys fight-Tn hold your coat
act" He walked up to Irv
Nelson and told him how Bill
Benson said he could beat him
any day of the week and doub-
lie that many times on Sunday
in the good Of game of golf.
Then he mooched over to Billy
Upshot was that he promoted
the golf feud of the moment.
But the darned thing never de-
cided anything. Irv and Bill,
with Bob as coach and escort,
tried to duel 1t out with the
clubs the other night. :. They
ended In a draw, rained out,

But it'll be continued-Bob

Rev Rex Harris had the scare
Of his career out fishing last week.
He was with a parishioner from
Alexandria out on Lake LeHomme
Dieu. It's big body of water,
and out Of the sky swept one of
those sudden storms that comes
from nowhere and with as little
warning as a Joe Louis punch. &.
The thing hit their boat, their mot

thing was running them out to sea,

Dave Caughren for twenty
years has been driving golf
halls for his hobby. Sum
day he clicked in what he says
Is the best round he ever had.

four under par for the eighteen
holes. He's plugged 35's be-

rounds together for an eight

Well, the talk gets around to
hunting this time of the year and
blamed little else really. We
were reading the other day that
conservation officials estimate that
nearly fifty per cent of the upland
game birds shot is lost by hunters
without good dogs. It is espec-
tally true Of pheasants, they say.
:. A lot Of the boys here claim
that good hunting dog should be
compulsory equipment for such
hunter. That may be going far,
but it is Importantly a conserva-
ton move for a hunter to have
There must be a terrific loss
during the season of birds shot
that scramble away into the un-
derbrush and are never nosed
out. The boys around here
argue that it's the case with
duck hunting as well. That a
lot of birds fallen into weedy
patches are lost to the untrain-

hunting continues the popular
