Tam 0'Shanter Golfer
In Chicago Meet

CHICAGO, Aug. 18 CAMP
Mrs. Ann Gregory, n of the
two colored women who p~artici-
pated in the world famous Tam
O'Shanter All American Golf
tournament last week, is n of
the noted golfers registered in the
tournament sponsored by the Chi
cago Women's Golf club this
The other Negro woman taking
part in the All American was
Mary Brown of Erie, Pa. Mrs.
Gregory who is from Gary, Ind,
was invited to compete person
ally by George S. Mays, owner
of the Tam O'Shanter Country
club and sponsor of the tourna-
ment.
Of 40 entries, only IL women
with scores, 70 to 90, qualified
for the finale. Mary Brown, we'll
known for her long drives, had
"golfer's nerves" and failed to
qualify, but Mrs. Gregory quail
flied with a 92.
Her scores were 90, then 80,
then 92 and finally 95. The course
proved especially difficult for
these women golfers because of
it's long fairways, difficult sand
traps, wide water "holes" and
other hazards which are so diff
ferent from the usual daily fee
courses that they play.
Both players liked the demo
cratic spirit displayed in the
meet, and the hearty sincere well
come they received there. Mays
predicted good possibilities for
Mrs. Gregory.

Valley Folks
 Break Into Print

Valley faces and tall tales were providing readable items for the stay-at-home magazine readers this week. Two articles, one in the latest issue of The Farm Quarterly and the second in the February issue of Outdoor Life, tell about life as it's lived in the Matanuska Valley.
 The first, elaborately illus trated in full-page technicolor, is a lengthy and quite accurate article entitled The Promised Land" It features more Valley names than it would be possible to list on all fingers and toes.
 Pictures which catch the eye include land clearing and house. construction work on the Frank Balogh farm, a full-page tech nicolor photograph of Father James Snead and Frankie" to- gether with several neighbor children, and a shot of Bill Bou- wens as the Valleys gun-totin' arm of the low. C'He always wears it," the article says.)
 Copies of The Farm Quarterly are not now available for sale in the Valley. However Bert's Drug Store has placed an order for 50 of the issue, and the maga- zines are expected to arrive in the near future.
 The second magazine article features story of the sheep hunt led last fall by guides Leo Lucas and Jimmy Simpson of the Val ley. It's told at length in the cur rent issue of Outdoor Life, which is on sale at all local neWsstands.

Local Sportsn1en Take Steps To Reorganize

Under the guidance of temp orary chairman Clare Stock, and with temporary secretary Bruce Graham writing down all the decisions, the first steps were taken toward recognizing Sportsman's club in the Valley last Wednesday evening.
 MT. Stock explained that the plan was to revive the former organization, or to organize a new group along similar lines. In line with that plan, MT. Stock appointed Bud Locker, Ralph Goodrich and Claude Carroll to a bylaw committee; they were asked to investigate the former clubs bylaws and make recom- mendation for changes where needed. That committee will re- port at the next meeting.
 It was announced that some material and equipment belong ing to the former organization is still on hand.
 The purpose of the proposed
 club was generally discussed
 by those attending the meet
 ing. Several present pressed
 the plan of union with the
 National Rifle Association.
 Others spoke of the conserv-
 ation work. the game cultiv-
 ation and planting which could
 be made possible through the
 voice of a united group.
 Dr. F. R. Sims asked that the function of the club be made wide enough to cover all recre- ation. He suggested it might be an outdoor hunting and fishing group in season, and perhaps be- come bowling club during the winter months. He touched on the need for recreation in the Valley, saying he felt that an organized group might do much to bring several types of recre- ation here.

ValleyCofC Bylaws Given Face-Lifting

The Valley Chamber of Com merce, the business mems or ganization of the Matanuska Valley, is going to begin to function on business-like basis if the board of directors have anything to say about it.
 Three board members gave existing bylaws a thorough combing over last Tuesday even- iY1g and came up with an almost totally new set which will be presented to the Chamber mem- bership at the next meeting.
 The principal change in ex- isting regulations would take routine business from the hands of the membership and place it under the jurisdiction of the board of directors. It is felt that change would streamline the procedure at regular meetings, which often are tediously pro- longed. Tuesdays group recom- mended that the existing board of five directors and officers be increased to nine-five directors and four officers.
 The change, as suggested, would require an annual election of officers and directors. On even years, three directors would be elected for a two-year term and two for one-year term, with two directors elected for a two year term on odd years.
 The existing board of direct ors also voted to recommend the

A discussion of those eligible to membership brought out two facts: First, the group is to be considered a Valley-wide organi- zation; second, women are to be welcomed as members. Juve- nile memberships were dis cussed, but no definite action was taken.
 It was decided 10 fix initial membership fees in the group al S5. with each member pres ent al Wednesdays meeting making a personal effort to bring one other to next weeks meeting.

Three Groups Plan Events ForFarm Week

This years Farm and Home week program in the Valley will be the joint contribution of the Extension Service, the Grange and the Department of Public Health, Parker Lester, local Ex- tension agent, announced this week. MT. Lester said the pro- gram was not yet planned in its entirety, but much of the weeks work is now outlined.
 Lorin T. Oldroyd, director of Extension Service of the Univer- sity of Alaska, and Mrs. Lydia Fohn-Hansen, home demonstra- tion leader, will be in Palmer for the week. Dates for the occasion still are tentative, but present plans schedule the program for the third week in February.
 MT. Lester said he hoped the Valleys new agricultural com mittee would be organized in time to participate in the plan ming of Farm and Home week. This committee, to which eight Valley residents will be named, is expected to hold its first meet ing early in February. MT. Les ter said he expected to announce names of committee members later this week.
 The Department of Public Health plans to deal with the dairying phase of farm work as its contribution to the weeks pro- gram. That section of the pro- gram is in the hands of Lloyd Morley, Anchorage sanitarian.
 Grange plans will not be formulated until early next week, after the planning com- mittee holds it's first meeting. Members of that committee in- clude Mrs. Harold Stephen, Mrs. Bill Bouwens and Al Brooks.
 At least part of the program of Farm and Home week will be staged in Wasilla, MT. Lester said.
 During the early part of the week, the territory's new Soil Conservation Board and it's ac- companying advisory committee will meet in Palmer. Those com- mittee meeting dates have been fixed for Feb. 18 and 19.
