flushed Moment

And when the day is over. and
the last pitch has been thrown,
YOU can return home. And the
first thing you should do IS
write Bill and Bob about the
opener
They'll be happy TO know
whether Charlie Jacobs ran out
of hotdogS Or whether HiZ-
Lzonah missed home plate with
'the official first pitch.
Yes. this is no mere opening
this year. The game itself stands
aS a symbol for what Bill and
Bob and all the others are fight
ing for. The thing 10 which
some day they'll return. And
tho thing for which their sons
and daughters will have down
through the years.
I'll bet there never will be
a more hushed. reverent moment
in your life than the short in
terlude that comes just before
the opening Of this years Amer
lean League season at Briggs

CHECK Is KEPT

To get results. the pressure Is
being put on the pros in a nice
way, OF course. A check is being
kept OF the old balls they turn IN
and is consulted when pro puts
in an order. No old balls, no new
or reproceSsed ones is the way II
works.
Regular golf balls have all, but
passed off the market. A few pros
still have some and are getting as
much as a dollar or more for them,
with plenty OF takers.
But even at these prices the
pros are making little money on
the transactions. They bought
them from other pros who either
figured they were oVefsteeked and
became panicky or who decided 10
go out Of business for the duration
In most cases they demanded and
GO, top prices for them.
