make on foreign risk" ventures.
They also want government to
guarantee they will suffer no
losses on foreign "risk' ventures.
They also want the government
to relieve them on anti trust
laws, presumably so they can
join foreign monopOlies in their
risk" ventures.
In fact, they expressed them
selves as perfectly willing and
eager to enter into risk" ven
lures in foreign lands.
But the risk must be shout
dered by the U. S. taxpayer, and
the profits of such risk" ven
lures must accrue to them.
Yet many of these same cor
porations employ high pressure
men to persuade independent re-
tailers and wholesalers to risk
capital in heavy inventories
with no guarantees.
Thus, once again, evidence ap-
pears there are two definitions of
free enterprise. One small but at
fluent group, feels free enterprise
is where government gives them
a free hand backed up with free
insurance.
But independent businessmen,
generally, consider free enter
prise as a system whereby man
is free to go broke, as well as
make fortune.
Yet thousands are willing to
risk their savings, their homes,
furniture, and futures in having
q 60 at free enterprise as they
understand 1t. And all they ask
from government is that they be
given at least an even break to
succeed. Yet government poll
cies on cheap imports, lax anti
trust law enforcement, inequit-
able tax programs, make that
risk more riskier every year. But
Interestingly enough, Commerce
Department has yet to make q
thorough investigation Of the
needs of independent business.

cHILDREN's BOOK WEEK

The Dare County Library,
along with every other Public
and school library in America,
will celebrate Children's Book
Week during the End week of
November. Since its inception,
CIV has become tradition in
the world of books and with peo-
pie who deal with books.
CIV was started in 1917 by
the librarian of the Boy Scouts,
who wanted to do something to
combat the dime novels which
the children were reading then.
The slogan of this crusade was
and still is Better books for
Young Readers. Since this time
the idea of children's book week
has become truly international
movement with over Is different
countries participating each
year.
The purpose of children's book
week is to focus public attention
on the need for more and better
books for children. This has al
ways been the goal of the Dare
County library. In celebration OF
CIV, the library will have on
display from November 8-Nov.
Is, children's books which the IL
brarian's think are representa-
tive of the best in children's lit
erature. Children as well as
adults are invited to visit the IL
brary during the week.

O'DonneIFs Victory in Open
yustifies BossIer S QuoIn1s
By MerreII WhittIesey
picture on Page ca

Charley BaSsler was eating
lunch between rounds of the,
Maryland Open at Manor yes
terday when John ODonnell
walked past. At that point, it
appeared the State Open cham
pionship would be between the
two, which 1t was.
They exchanged good luck
this afternoon" and somebody
said you didn't mean that" to
Bassler after ODonnell had
passed through the room.
II think I can catch him"
Bassler said. "but there's a lot Of
players in this field I'd rather
have ahead of me than O'Don-
nell. He's the most moderated
player in the section"
Bassler had a point. ODon-
nell seldom is favored to win a
tournament and doesn't get as
much attention as Bassler, Jack
ISaacs and some Of the Others.
but he's been one of the big pro
winners in the Middle Atlantic
area since he beat Lew Worsham
for the Maryland Open title in
1889.
Top Area Pro Of Year.
O'Donnell, another of those
Virginians who doesn't admit to
10. now holds the Maryland and
Virginia Open titles, was the
only player to qualify for both
the National Open and PGA this
year in sectional trials, and he
has the low scoring average. He's
top sectional pro of the year.
He shot 69-67-73 at Manor
for 200, one under par, and the
only par breaker in the field for
SO holes. O'Donnell almost let
the title get away with a bad
out nine in the afternoon, but
he played some courageous golf
on the back nine and won by
o stroke over Isaacs.
All winners are lucky-have
to be-and O'Donnell certainly
had more than his share. On
the first hole Of the afternoon
he drove out of bounds. but the
ball hit a tree and rebounded
into the fairway. He pared the
hole. On the ninth he drove
deep into the woods, but the ball
bounced into the fairway and
he pared the hole. On the 14th
he drove out of bounds so deep
he already had teed up another
ball when somebody yelled, 1T
bounced in the fairway." He
pared the hole.
Rivals Help Winner.
But O'Donnell had more luck
than that. ISaacs, playing in
front of O'Donnell, three-putted
the last green to finish with 210.
He missed a tiny putt for 209
after gambling for his birdie.
And Bassler, playing behind
ODonnell, needed only two pars
to win but bogied the 18th, and
cut the ball out of bounds on
the 18th in a rather absurd
gamble for position on the hole.
The finish was somewhat of
a letdown from what promised
to be a mass sub-par scramble
for the title. The 100-degree
heat, the terrific humidity on

at Manor is q dog-leg par-4 Of
406 yards, with woods on both
sides and out Of bounds to the
right. Bassler could have hit
his best drive straight ahead
and had no more than an 8-iron
to the green.
But he had to try to cut the
ball around the corner. saving
q few yards and setting up q
9-iron shot instead Of an eight.
He hit q real big drive. high, far
and cut. but it caught q high
branch on the tall tree that
guards the corner Of the fair
way and dropped out Of bounds.
Somebody yelled back rather
mournfully. 'O-u-u-t Of bou-u-
u1ds." Bassler grinned, said
GIMME another ball." and hit
q second.
His kid brother was mad at
him. everybody who was roofing
for him was mad at him, and
later Charley was a little mad
at himself. The Rolling Road
pro, trying to win the title for
the fourth time. and defend his
title, finished fourth instead.
= ~ y
Earlier BasSler had hit q sec
ond shot out of bounds on the
fourth hole. over the green Of
all places. He didn't think It
was out and played the hole
both ways. with the first ball and
with a provisional. He made a
4 with one and z with the other.
After Bassier left the hole a
committee came out to inspect
the spot and. ruled him out of
bounds. The Manor Club on
Gals said there was no question
but that it was out. Charley
learned that information on the
seventh hole and Immediately
3-putted the green.
It's logical to think that If
Bassler's ball on the fourth had
not been out of bounds he
wouldn't have three-putted the
seventh nor hit out on the 18th.
He would have won by q half
dozen shots.
&NA
Bassler at first refused to turn

almost all the way by homes.
the out Of bounds should have
been more clearly marked before
the tournament started.
Oddly enough, when O'Donnell
won the Maryland Open in 1899
the decision was held up for a
ruling. Lew Worsham came to
the last hole needing four to
win and drove into a free-lift
ditch. However, it was ruled
Worsham's ball had to be played
because it was a borderline case
as to whether it was within the
chalk lines for q free lift, and
he bogied the hole, ODonnell
winning.
