TEE TO GREEN
BY MERRELL WHlTTLESEY

The changes in the golf rules
already have been responsible
for a decision that cost Wesley
Ellis $3.50 IN the Palm Springs
Desert Classic last week end,
and Clarence Doser was in town
the other day telling of an
amusing incident in the recent
PGA Seniors that was brought
about by rules change.
One of the senior golfers was
putting on a green that is not
more than 25 yards from a
railroad spur line. An engine
was idltng on the tracks.
The pro was one of those who
addresses a putt with great
care, placing the putter in front
of the ball. then in back of it,
then very deliberately in front
Of the ball again, and then in
back before the stroke.
He had placed the blade of
the putter in front Of the pail,
when all of a sudden somebody
in the cab of the engine leaned
on the whistle. The deafening
blast shook the golfer so that
he jerked the clubhead and the
ball rolled in the wrong direc-
ton across the green and into
a sand trap.

But the senior pro was not so
unnerved that he didn't think.
He walked into the trap, picked
up the ball, replaced it in its
original position on the green,
took a one-Stroke penalty for
an unplayable lie, and tapped
the ball into the cup.
He had been putting for a
four before the blast from the
whistle. He made five. Doser
sWears it's a true story.
Last year, when the unplay-
able lie penalty was two strokes
his decision would have been
inadvisable. He would have
been better off playing the ball
from the trap.

time secretary of the District
Golf Association, and a sharp
fellow with the rule book, said
the pros action was permits.

rectly behind the unplayable
position. and taken a one
stroke penalty.
1t was a costly lesson for the
young Texan, but because it
happened in early February
and received considerable pub
licity, Ellis probably saved
strokes for many golfers for
1860.

North Dakota
Win a Must,
G. 0. P. Says
sy tina Associated Press

Republicans are preparing
for an all-out effort in a spe-
cial North Dakota senatorial
election which could influence
the whole presidential cam
paign.
Senator Goldwater of Ari-
zona, chairman of the Repub-
lican Senatorial Campaign
Committee. said that so far as
the June % North Dakota bal
loting is concerned, This is it. "
IF we Republicans lose this
special election in the Midwest
just prior to the convention, it
will influence the whole cam
paign this year." he said. eff
we can't win in a key pivotal
State like this, we may lose
the presidential election"
Republicans have nominated
Gov. John E. Davis to fill the
remainder of more than four
years of the term of the late
Republican Senator William
LANCER. Democrats are expected
to nominate Representative
Burdick at their State conven-
tion Thursday.
Nixon Aid Asked
Because the farm issue is
likely to be paramount, Senator
Goldwater said he has been
urging Vice President Nixon
to go into the State and make
a farm speech.
AS the prospective party pres
idential nominee, Mr.. Nixon is
gathering ideas for a farm pro-
gram of his own. He will have
to have at least the broad out
lines of such a program ready
before the North Dakota elec-
tion if he expects to present it
in detail to the National Con-
vention platform committee in
July.
Senator Goldwater thinks
this program may prove to be
something of an antidote to
the policies of Secretary of
Agriculture Benson. Mr.. Ben
sons ideas are under heavy
attack from Democrats and
many Midwestern Republicans
are considerably less than
charmed with them.
"We know that Nixon doesn't
agree with Benson" Senator
Goldwater said in an interview,
but we don't know the extent
to which he doesn't"
Thus far Mr.. Nixon has said
no to Senator Goldwater's pleas
for a North Dakota speech. The

:...withoUt Ne, YOU \
\ Can Do Nothing" 4
~ NNrIlInIlLrE ~

It would be hard to convince
some people that these words
Of Our Lord apply to them.
Like the Pharisees of
ChriSt'S time, they attribute
their successes to their own
merits. They may concede
that they got the breaks"
now and then, but in the
main they vainly think they
have succeeded because Of
their own superior qualities.
"Oh, sure" they may say,
God has been good to me"
:. but most of the credit
they take unto themselves.
In this age of Self-glorifi-
cation when so many
seem convinced of the neces-
sity of footing their own
horn" the Catholic
Church may seem out of
step in preaching it's 1000
year-old message of humil-
ity. And likewise unpopular
with some people will be the
Church'S reminder that the
sin of Pride still ranks first
among the seven capital sins
condemned by Christ.
Our hope here, however, is
not so much to convince the
wilfully arrogant of the er-
ror of their ways. Oar pur-
pose, rather, is to point out
that the capital sin Pride
covers a multitude of other
sins which are subtle and not
easy to recognize. The Cath
olic teaching in this respect
may not appeal to those af-
filiated by Pride, but we
think it will be received with
a spirit of goodwill and ap-
proval by humble people of
all faiths.
Pride, for example, can be
a worse sin than murder
under certain circumstances.
1t was the Original Sin. It is
often the beSetting sin of
the individual who demands
to see the divine credentials
and assumes to Judge God.
And there are sins prompted
by Pride which violate no
civil law, yet are deeply Of
fensive to God.
The Catholic Church con-
Stantly reminds its people to
acknowledge tn cir weak
neSses and to confess their
sins to realize that hu-

Star Stan Writer

Republican Leader Dirksen
said today he hopes the Senate
can pass the civil rights bill
by tomorrow night, but a
Southern spokesman indicated
it probably will take all of this
week.
The possibility that the lead
ers will have to invoke the
debate limiting cloture rule has
not been eliminated. But a re-
liable source said the odds still
favor action without cloture.
Despite the defeat of the Ke-
fauver public hearing amend
ment Friday, the SouthernerS
have not abandoned efforts to
adopt a provision similar to the
Kefauver proposal.
In sidetracking the Kefau-
yer amendment, the Senate
adopted a requirement that
Federal judges fix the time and
place for court-appointed ref
erees to examine Negroes seek
ing to qualify as voters. But
. the same provision made the
referee proceedings ex parte,
barring State officials from
being heard by the referees.
The Southerners are expected
to offer a new public hearing
amendment.
The liberals also have changes
to offer, but indications are the
five-point measure will pass in
its present form, with the ad-
ministration's plan for court
appointed voting referees as its
most important feature.
House Seen Ready
The House is reliably re-
ported to be ready to accept the
Senate version without a con-
ference if no further changes
are made.
The biggest unanswered
question is whether Southern
Senators will allow a final vote
without forcing party leaders
to invoke the seldom used clo-
ture rule to curtail debate.
The cloture rule requires ap-
proval by two-thirds of those
present and voting, and leaders
are reluctant to invoke it be-
cause of the Senate's traditional
adherence to the doctrine of
unlimited debate.
When the civil rights battle
started on February IS it was
assumed the Southerners would
resist until they were gagged.
Early in the fight they demon
strated their ability to talk in
definitely by holding the floor
for an entire week of around
the-clock sessions.
