to the Wise
By Mrs. Fronk Colby

ny WIS., bIOuN SOlDy
Many of you, feel sure, are
golfers. You know the difference
between a putter and a niblick,
a slice and a hook. a fairway,
and a green. But do you know
where the name GOLF came
from?
The game of golf as we know
it was inherited from the Scotch;
but the name of the game came
from the Dutch kolf, "a club
used to strike balls"
Some interesting parallels of
the Middle English woro Golf.
meaning "club," are low Ger
man kulf. "hockey-stick";; Ice
landic kolfr, "clapper of a bell" "
and kylfa, "a club; Danish
kobe, "but-end of a weapon;
German kobe, CLUB, mace,
knob" and Swedish kolf, butt
end"
Those of you who have spent
much time and lost more
patience trying to, master the
mysteries of golf should be in
terested in Webster's definition
Golf is a game which consists
in striking a small, resilient ball
with clubs, having heads. into a
series of holes situated at vary
ing distances on a course, or
links, with natural or artificial
obstacles, irregularly interposed
The object is to put the ball into
each hole in as few strokes as
possible
Incidentally, we often use the
terms "golf course" and golf
links" anonymously Actually
they are not synonymous. Prop
! erly a golf course refers to an
inland spot and golf links to a
seaside set of green's and fair
ways.

NEW YORK, tR-Secretary Of
State Dulles-speaking with the
advance approval of President
Eisenhower urges "u n i t e d
action" by the free nations to
prevent Communist domination
Of Indochina and all southeast
Asia
Communist domination in that
area Of the world 'would be
grave threat to the whole free
community" Dulles said in
major foreign policy declaration
and added:
"The United States feels that
that possibility should not be pas
sively accepted, but should be
met by united action.
"This might have serious risks.
But these risks are far less than
would face us a few years from
now, if we dare not be resolute
today.
sometimes it is necessary to
take risks to win victory. The
chances for peace are usually bet
tered by letting a potential ag-
gressor know in advance where
his aggression could lead him."
Dulles made clear that he
meant action by the United States
and its allies, in contrast to pre-
vious speeches in which he spoke
of possible United States retalli-
alton.
He did not spell out specific
united action" measures he had
in mind to block Communist con-
quest Of southeast Asia. A State
Department aide said any moves
would be discussed in detail with

screaming Vietminh shock troops
early Wednesday, interspersing
savage counterattacks of their

The French High Command an

barrage.
Thousands of wildly yelling
rebel troops sprang from foxholes
and trenches ringing the dusty,

Phu and charged toward the maze

manned by garrison including
Frenchmen, North Africans, For

and pro-French Thai tribesmen.
Tanks, artillery, mortars and
