Middleton, who gave up his place
on the 1s47 Walker Cup golf team
because he intends to turn pro,
lists his favorite shot as "a
straight one" That's just one
tidbit of information turned up
by U. S. G. A. Secretary Joe Dey
in studying questionnaires he sent
to all the "Walkoyer" cup players.
For instance, Dick Chapman and
George Hamer are the only play
ers who never have made q hole
in one. The other seven have
made q total Of 10. Fred Kam-
mer, who has played golf as long
as he can remember and also
starred in baseball and hooked at
college, lists his hobbies as ny
fishing and skiing. Willie
Turnesa, q Brooklyn boy. also
goes for fishing and hunting.
Smiley Quick tops his hobby list
with clown diving"-which Is
understandable. Bud Wards big
gest golfing thrill came when he
shot a 81 at st. Andrews in the
Walker Cup series and beat Frank
Pennink, IL and II, in 36-hole

Even should Philadelphia take 18

Ed Sadowski, former Seton Hall
star, and Bob Taught, rangy former
Notre Dame ace, to guard Fulks.
Sadowski, incidentally, was ousted
from the last Cleveland game here

game. Fulks made 28 points that
night. -. ~
Jumpin' Joe played college ball
at Murray State Teachers in Ken

in each game. It has been his
inspired Workmanship which has

Rome Men Marooned
5 Days in Setting Up

During the eight days absence
from this camp, our party expert
enced the worst weather that can
be encountered in the Antarctic.
For five days the entire party was
marooned in their tents. while an
Antarctic wind of cyclonic proper
tons swept northward from the
hinterland. Steady winds of rs
miles per hour, with some wind
gusts exceeding 95 miles per hour
were recorded At the same time
the thermometer went down to 80
degrees below zero, Fahrenheit.

camp, our party reached the foot of
the glacier where we pitched an
overnight camp in utter darkness

That night the temperature went
down to. 20 below and for those
who had never before slept in a
sleeping bag, it was a great surprise.
The elevation of our camp the
second night was $500 feet. Here we
witnessed the liveliest display of
Antarctic beauty-one of the things
which make men return to this DESC
lated continent for a second and a
third time. Looking southwark into
the unknown, We could see the most
splendid display of Aurora Austrahs.
These beautiful southern lights were
intense in their color and strength.
There were rapidly occurring
changes from streamers to curtains
and, at times, they Illuminated the
entire southern sky.
All those in our party braved the
30-mlie wind and the 25-degree-
below-zero temperature to take in
this msde-to-order celestial display.

and went over to the other tent
where four men slept. They were
all in their sleeping bags and had
been there for hours, pondering as
to whether the tent was going to
take off any moment.
During our five days of enforced
inactivity we maintained regular
radio contacts with the base and
informed members of the party
there of our situation. In order not
to 60 into the food and fuel desig-
mated for the exclusive use of Peter
