I three-putted the 9th for a S6 out. The shot I'll never forget came on the 10th hole, stiff par four.
 I hooked my second into a trap, leaving me a rough shot. The ball lay very close, to 6 high bank. I hit a plaster that just got out. The ball hit the edge of the green and trickled into the cup, which was about 30 feet from the edge.
 This gave me Q 3 and helped me to come in with a B for 6e. l tied for fourth place.

 George Burns of the radio team

 they hold story conferences and script sessions in a room of the next door, where two very sweet
 elderly ladies live, the kind that are usually associated with laven-
 dar and old lace, wOoIen shawls and all that sort of thing. In the course of the gag-writing, the conversation gets pretty loud, and, with the windows open, the old ladies get quite an earful of everything that goes on. A short time ago, one of the little gray haired women took a nasty spill off a step-Iadder In the yard.
 George helped take her indoors, put her to bed, and saw that she was taken care of. Not wanting to disturb either of them then, he had his gag-men move into a room on the other side of the house to continue with their hud- Ille. It was not long before there was knock on the door-and the uninjured old lady, who was still up and about, was inquiring, "When are you going to move back to the other rOOm-wc can't hear a blankety-blank thing any mOre!"

There was another American Of
ficer somewhere in Luzon who had
the same idea had-to escape TO
Australia. He was in hiding and
planning an immediate move. He
asked me to suggest a rendezvous

plans for escape would give some
