Coils Sharpshooters
Pack Eastern Open
Meet in Baltimore
By the As,oeiaisd Press

BALTIMORE, Aug. l6.-Mount
Pleasant, a course primarily for
Sunday golfers since 1t was built
in 1882, will get its first real go
ing over as a testing ground Of
the game starting tomorrow.
One hundred or so of COLTS best
players will be sharpshooting on
the course for four days during
the first Eastern Open. Prizes
totaling $l6,50O have drawn the
bulk of golf's touring money-seek-
ers.
Mount Pleasant was designed by
Charles Hook, superintendent OF
public parks for Baltimore. It's
a municipal course and as such
buffers are its principal users.
Therefore, par of 70 for 18 holes
as we'll as the course record is due
for a beating.
The record Of 81 has stood since
1888 when it was set by Clift
Spencer. now a golf pro at Eliza

There are at least a half
dozen pros who can break the
course record with a hot round, "
comedies Hook.
Bill Nary, one of those who will
compete. agrees that 67 will be
bettered "once or twice" Nary
from California, was one OF the
early arrivals to test the course.
However, Hook doesn't think
any of the pros will be able to
'break $50 for the full 70 holes"
The Eastern Open calls for ID
holes on tomorrow, Friday. Satur-
day and Sunday. After Fridays
round, the field will be limited to
the best so scorers.
Mount Pleasant is called long
course, measuring $685. yards.
But this doesn't mean necessarily
that the all-out hitters from the
tee will have the advantage.
Eleven of the Is holes are out
right or modified doglegs, holes
with a curve between tee and
green. This puts a premium on

ton on approaches to the green

Peanut Allotments
Are Now Being
Established

Farm acreage allotments fol-
1951-crop of peanuts are now be-
ing established and notices will
be ready for mailing to farm
operators in Columbus County
around December 8, the county
office of the Production and Mar
keting Administration reports
this week.
Clyde Wayne, county PIMA
committee chairman, says that
the allotments being established
now are for farms on which more
than one acre O. peanuts were
harvested for nuts in one or more
of the years 1913 through 1850.
Operators of farms on which pea
nuts will be produced in 1851 for
the first time since 1947 will have
an opportunity to apply for allot-
ments at a later date.
The county PIMA office is rush
ing to get the allotment notices
ready for mailing as soon as pos
sible so peanut growers will
know their 1851 farm allotments
before voting in the peanut mar
keting quota referendum to be
held on Thursday, December IA,
Mr.. Wayne explains.
He says that 1851 farm allot-
ments will be somewhat smaller
than the 1850 allotments because
both the 1851 and national allot-
ments have been adjusted as pro-
vided by law, to reflect estimated
requirements for peanuts next
year.
Generally speaking, 1851 farm
allotments are based on 1850
allotments already reflect the
tillable acreage available on the
farm for the production of pea.
nuts on the farm, the factors re-
quired by law to be taken into
consideration in determining
farm allotments."
The farm acreage allotments
will be the basis for determining
farm marketing quotas if the
vote favors quotas in the coming
referendum.
Mr.. Wayne explains that the
farm marketing quota is the act
ual production of the farm acre
age allotment, and under a mark
citing quota program, production
of acreage in excess of the farm
acreage allotment is subject to
a marketing penalty. If the acre
age picked and threashed on the
farm is not greater than in 1947.
however, the grower may avoid
the penalty if he deliveries his
excess" production to an agency
designated by the SECRETARY of
Agriculture to receive such Eek
