PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

On Friday afternoons, from to
S o'clock, during the Lenten sea-

open and kept warm for prayer by
those desiring to come apart
awhile"
Rather than a period of denial Of
things that have nothing to do with
the spiritual things, it is hoped that
it will be one of true fellowship in
prayer and growth in the Christian
faith and life for all who will avail
themselves of this opportunity at
this particular Easter season.

Golf Ball Economy
May Bring Respite
ION Wafer Hazards

One Of the moves that may result
from the new war economy on golf
courses is temporary filling in Of
water hazards. Nor will the duffer
clan weep and wall II this is done
Columbia has the most extensive
water hazard of any course around
Washington, at the sixteenth and
seventeenth holes Of that course,
but almost all golf layouts have
some form of water hazard. The
new situation stems back to the
coming golf ball shortage and deep
water hazards are not going to be
popular in days to come.
o. B. Fits, Columbia green
keeper, already believes filling in Of
the water hazard In front of the
sixteenth green may come as a golf
ball saving measure and lower tees
on the 18th to eliminate most Of
the big carry across . wide water
hazard will be used.
Chevy Chase, Washington. Con-
gressional, Manor, Army Navy and
Belle Haven courses have water
hazards in which ball may be lost

Nose Operation Was Help.
Tommy had no formal ring ex-

who might have q year or two of

Nee pointed out that while youth
is an almost vital asset to a ball
player breaking into the big show,
there have been a few notable ex-
ceptions.
"Take Wiley Moore" suggested
Nee. He was 80 years old when
he came to the Yankees In 1927.
Moore stuck and surprises every one
by winning 10 games and losing only
seven that year.
Jim Turner and Lou Fette were
80 years old when they first broke
into the majors with the Boston
Braves and each won 20 games his
first year. Heber< Newsome, who
won 10 games for the Red Sox last
year, is 80 years old and had never

equally as possible among all our

OF course, the situation isn't too
bad. Golfers won't mind the added
boost of dime ball They'll play
more holes with them, and they'll
search longer for them when they
knock 'em into the woods or into
deep rough. And right here . tip

rough, boys. Clean up the course.
and if you have water hazards keep
plenty of nets and rakes handy. II
you don't your members who hit
those expensive and rare golf balls
into them are going to do plenty
of squawking. Nor can you blame
them. If they lose something they
cannot replace they have a right to
yell, particularly If they don't have
to lose 'em.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, Jan. 20.
The graybeards Of minor league
baseball, whose chances OF crashing
the majors might have been as
little as one In q thousand year
ago, can take renewed hope.
Johnny Nee, veteran New York
Yankee scout, said today that the
oldsters are going to get plenty Of
attention from the ivory hunters
next summer and added, II wouldn't
be surprised to see quite . few 30
year-old rockies in spring training
camps next spring Q943) If the
war continues"
Most of the good prospects a
baseball scout looks at each year, |"
Nee explained, ARE young fellows
between the ages Of 20 and IS and
a majority Of them are unmarried.
But in times like these. signing such
players is risky business because
Uncle Sam has prior claim on them
for military service.
"As see it, the only alternative
10 to look for older players-those
