retained.
Purdue, which never has
played Duke in football, will be

games. Wake Forest, North

opponents.

At $4,000, he is still one of
the highest paid baseball play
ers, although his earnings have
dropped considerably from the
$82, 900 he got in 1948. His pay
checks then were tops in baseball.
Feller relied on his blazing
fast ball while setting strike
out records, but now he depends
more on curves and sliders. Con-
troll becomes more important all
the time for the 34-year-old
chucker.
In 1916, he struck out 348
men, major league record. In
1888, he struck out 18 Detroit
Tigers in one game. That, too,
stands as a record.
And he is the only man to
pitch three no-hit games since
the turn of the century. His II
one-hitters are also a record.

MoseIey's 50 Set Official Fairfax Record,
But Wait Until 'Bunu's Spears Has Dry Duy

In half an hour Of telephone

Fairfax has been host to the
Federal Golf Association cham
plonship, the Air Force tourna-
ment and few college and
high school matches. The only
pros who have tested the course
in competition are those who
are members Of the Golf Course
5uperintendents Association, and
their scores have not been too
good. Women have not played
any competitive events.
The official mark OF 50 was
posted by Capt. Fred Moseley in
the first round of the Federal
championship in September,
1948. He eventually won the
36-hole medal event with So
73-142, over Col. Ben Schriever's

George Thornton had Ills in the
first round.
At the time Capt. Moseley
was the defending All-Army
champion, the Air Force title
holder and Northern California
Amateur champ. He was sta
toned here less than two years.
The second best official round
score, II, was matched by Col.

Fairfax was opened in Deem
ber. 1941, as a 9-hole course un-
der the ownership OF John S.
Connolly. The architect was
the best known man in his field
Robert Trent Jones, who laid
out a master plan for the course
so that when another nine was
added in 1947 the course lost
only one of its original tees.
Bill Glover is the hero Of the
golfers who jam the rolling Vir-

step ahead of the golfers and
the weatherman. For the per-
centage Of play, no course in
this area is kept in better con-
dition.
Fairfax was built. as Connolly
says. for the average golfer. It
does not cater to tournaments
because of the heavy play. Hand
icapping is next to impossible
because of the number Of tran
sients. The clubs solution to
the crowded conditions on week

the reserved times. The starting
