fairways and covering only a few
blocks, rather than 800 acres, for
example.
Sarazen expects normal par for
one of the future-type curses to
be about Sc, rather than IL, with
the emphasis on accuracy and fl
nesse. Sarazen says that the
smaller course would even be
available to golfers at night, since
they could be lighted. Several of
them r already in operation in
the South. Playin gthe future
type golf course, average par for
a hole would be three, although
at least one hole would be a lony
one, requiring good, hefty drive.
Sarazen says the new courses
would not require fourteen clubs
either.
Much of what Sarazen says
seems to make sense, especially
IN overcrowded areas, although
the process win obviously be a
long one, if indeed it does ma
terialize. However, Sarazen is a
golf expert who should be cred
tied with some vision in that
sport, and we think he has the
right idea as to the long-term
trend in golf.

ACCIDENTS

The University of Illinois Safe
ty Department has some sugges-
lions for housewives who must dc
much of their family's cooking.
Here are a few of the sugges-
tons offered, which are intended
to keep you from dumping a pot
of hot squash on juniors head
cutting yourself or others, and
experiencing other accidents in
the most-uSed room in your
house:
First, prepare most of a meal
before mealtime, so that you
won't have to hurry.
Second, turn the handles of
your cooking utensils to the back
of the stove to prevent them from
being turned over.
Third, check electric cords, be
sure to use a safe stepladder and
have a special place for knives
and other dangerous instruments,
which is not in the reach of
small children.
Finally, if you are too tired
to cook and do not have time to
prepare a meal, take the family
out to Joe's Joint for a hamburg
er. Caution should be exercised
here also, SO that no accidents
will occur I'VE the question of
who pays the bill. There is no
general safety rule to solve this
question.

will in flight, as did Arthur Bent:
"The whip-poor-will seemed to
avoid the branches as the shear
water avoids the tops of waves,
fitting over them as it sails. This
was when the bird was moving
slowly, but at times it increased
its speed and executed the most in
tricate maneuvers, appearing and
disappearing among the branches,
ever changing its direction, swerv-
ing sharply from side to side, heel
ing over till one wing pointed
nearly to the earth, then swapping
back on an ever keel. 1t shot
straight upwards, dived head
downward, and doubled back,
twisting and gyrating with such
rapidity that it seemed to be
tumbling in the air. The flight
was silent; even when the bird
passed within a few feet of my
head, / heard no sound"
The whip-poor-will belongs to
the goatsucker family, all of whom
have very weak and small bills,
but enormous mounts, with a
cape opening far back under the
ears. Goatsuckers first received
their name from a popular belief
that a European species relieved
goats of their milk-a belief with
out foundation in fact. They feed
entirely on insects-moths, cater
pillars, grasshoppers, mosquitoes,
crickets, June bugs. Most of these
insects r captured in flight.
Superstition still haunts these
birds-some believe that if a whip
poor-will visits a doorstep, sick
ness or death will follow. Others
are certain the birds bring bad
luck. For years the call was
thought to be that of a night
hawk, which it resembles.
Frank Bolles had the rare ex-
perience of watching a courtship,
a rarity because of the evening
gloom and the wonderful natural
camouflage of the birds. He de-
scribed it:
"The bird uttered its note about
20 or 80 times when another a.
near it. One or two sounds
like the soft popping of corn came
from the new arrival, and the
first bird, which had ceased its
call, faced it and began a strange,
slow dance, advancing a step at

THE FUTURE OF GOLF

Gene Carazen, colorful figure
in the golfing world still al
though past his prime, says to-
days top golf courses are obso-
lete. He lists several reasons to
back his contention.
In the first place, Sarazen says
that time is a factor which will
~necessitate smaller golf courses.
He notes that it takes four or
five hours to leave ones job, go
out to a golf course and play 10
holes and return. In other words,
he says, it is almost an all-day
affair.
Moreover, he says, land is run
ming out. With more people play
ing golf than ever before, more
golf courses are needed and the
land is simply not available in
many areas. Therefore, he looks
for golf courses with narrower

light. But the loveliest and mos
haunting sound of the recurring
season is the call of the whip

turn to their native haunts SC
regularly they seem to check the
calendar. In northern Virgins
they have marked off the third
week in April, and soon the wood
land thickets are full of their
liquid chorus.
Thousands of people have heard
the whip-poor-will calling on
moonlight nights, but few r for

bird. Motorists may be puzzled to
see a large red eye glowing in his

Burroughs, however, undoubtedly
exceeds all others-he once heard
a whip-poor-will call 1893 times,
with only a barely preceptible
pause here and there, as if to take
breath"
A looms laugh over a northern
lake is full Of wildness, speaking
of primitive life meant only for

the wild, but of a softer, more

MORE HORSEPOWER COMING

Instead of a trend away from
more horsepower, the word IS
out from Detroit that the 1858
automobiles will feature a con-
siderable boost in horsepower
and performance. This is sur
prising to those who thought the
horsepower race had about reach
ed the end of the trail.
1t is reported that most of the
horsepower increase will be
achieved by the use of fuel-in-
lection engines, usually TO be Of
fered as optional equipment. Re-
ports from Detroit tell of ex-
perimental cars and first models
of 1858 lines which exceed the
performance of 1857 cars to a
considerable degree.
In other words, it seems that
the automobile industry has ac-
cepted the philosophy that great
er and greater engine perform
ance adds up to more modern and
better automobiles. If this is true

DAY. 1857

mO . OhA ASS
Mothers Day dates from jus
a few years back - 1907, or fifty
years ago. Yet it has already be-
come nationally accepted anc
generally observed in this anc
other countries
Miss Anna M. Jarvis of Phil
adelphia persuaded one of the
churches in that city to honor
mothers and asked that sons and
daughters wear white carnations
in honor of their mothers. This
was done and soon the custom
spread TO all parts of the United
States.
Today we wear either white
or red flowers On this special
day depending on whether u
mother is still alive. And there
is little doubt that the observance
of Mothers Day led, later, to
establishment of Fathers Day,
which is held in June.
1t is proper and well to OBJ
serve Mothers Day and a ira
dition of giving presents to moth
ers on the second Sunday IN May
has become established In recent
years. But observance of the day
has done much good through the
years. Organizations dedicated to
the goal of reducing the loss of
life in childbirth long used the
day to stimulate thought and
generate support for that cause.
In 1914 Congress Officially rec
opnized Mothers Day and Presl-
dent Woodrow Wilson first called
upon u. S. officials to display
the flag in honor OF the day.
A mother is a common pos
session of all. Observance of the
day knows no distinctions, no
limits and no special classes. And
the fact that observance of the
day has grown so rapidly in this
country and abroad is proof that
sons and daughters, or all OF us,
think it only right to pay re-
spect and do honor TO the love
and a r and bother that once
- and usually still is -
spent on us by those we remem-

For there are, in our land today, a number of
antilles that currently boast as many as three
generations at the wheel.
We mention this simply to underscore a great
and dramatic truth about Cadillac-that, of
course, is its unchan9ing goodness and quality.
For 6fty-6ve years, the Cadillac name has

ON DIRT N RAIN

DR.. Ross Gum, Weather Blu
reau director of Physical Re
search, said recently in Washing
ton that the formation of rain
over the United States may be
slackening because of an increase
in air contamination.
DR.. Gum says a recent inves-
tigation has indicated a rela-
tionship between cleanliness of
air and the likelihood of rain. In
other words, the more dirt and
trash included in the air, as par
ticles, the more difficult it ap-
pears to be for rain to form in
the clouds.
According to this theory, air
contamination, which is the re-
suit of smokestacks, automobile
exhaust and even bomb explo-
sions, may hold up the formation
of rain and may have to be
carefully controlled in the future.
In fact, DR.. Gum believes that
the world will have to clean up
the air around the earth if the
normal pattern of rainfall is not
to be affected.
Although DR.. Gums findings
are highly interesting, and pos
sibly significant, there is a diff
ference of opinion on this ques-
ton. Should atomic bomb ex-
blossoms prove to affect the for
nation of rain, it may be that
science is on the verge of learn
ming how to control the layer of
gas around the earth, which
makes up the weather.

And, those who have followed the path to

1t has been suggested that au-

bumpers, rather than the stiff

brakes should be improved in
keeping with the greater power

bile industry, it seems to us,
has an obligation TO see that
such moves as these, and many
others, are made if greater and
greater horsepower is offered the
public. We can only hope the in
