Woodward-jus; back Of the 200.
Sunday was quite a DAY there.
Such foursomes as G.p Traylor,
Emmett, Garter, Harry Tapslco and
Bernard Odell-George Williams.
Attorney Jones, Willis Ward and
Dr.. Tandy-all aided in bringing
pack the good old Rackham at
mosphere The famous Jackson
pros Eddie and Tom were out ex-

according 10 Mr.. RubenStein, di-
rector Of the course, but he states
that all players will see a decided

the neat little nine holes. Over the
! week end some of the courses play
ers included; Dave Morris. Benny
DAVIS, Dorothy and Devllle Mac
Cauley, Louis Helvey and Even Dr.

out on the course? They're to be
congratulated.
AT BELLE ISLE
You know, you can really get to
appreciate the Island course after
you've played few times around.
Marie CITY champ Jones, Alne
Davis and | went around it over
the week end. We found it quite
interesting especially for accuracy
practice. Why don't you try it now
and then? II was grand to get teed
of without an hours wait, and then
you find little confliction on the

AT RIVER ROUGE
Hats off to the golfers who still
have the nevre 10 knock golf balls
into thai nice red river. But when
such foursomes as DIR. Remus,"
Benny Davis, Eddie and Tom Jack
