For Starto
Virginia Open

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, Aug.
rs (AP).-Play began in the
$4,000 Virginia State Golf As
sociation Open tournament here
today with the newest pro in
the field. Wayne Jackson of
Richmond, hoping he hadn't
had too much too soon.
In his very first competitive
start as a professional, the s.
foot-4 Jackson racked the
James River Country Club
course with six-under-par 64
yesterday in a pro-amateur
that served as a warmup to
the 54-hole, three-day Open.
Jackson, like others in the
pro-amateur field of 160, was
quick to point out that the
tightly wooded, 6,332 yard
James River layout will play
a lot tougher today than it
did for the pro-am, for which
the tees were showed as far
forward as they would go and
the pins set smack in the
middle of the greens.
Pro Wynsol Spencer of Ft.
EuStiS said peSsimistically,
Nobody will recognize this old
place when the important
tournament begins" He said it
with a panied expression, for
he had found the course much
to his liking yesterday. Spencer
and Leo Steinbrecher of Rich
mond shot 66S that were second
only to Jackson's record-tying

Both Jackson and Spencer
pocketed $120 in the pro-
amateur, each teaming with
three amateurs for best ball

with Ned Baber, Fred Dull and
DR.. Jose Davila of Richmond; a;
Spencer with Ronnie Gerringer
of Newport News, Wallace
Alberson of Hampton and Ben
Cleary of Richmond.

with a best ball of 81 in COM

Winter Care For
Fruit Tree Diseases

Many fungus or bacteri a
diseases of fruit trees can be treat
ed during the winter while the
trees are dormant, often by using
very simple means, according to
Ed Ralph, associate county agent
IN Sussex County.
Experts at the University of Del
aware say that there are several
ways of reducing or eliminating
certain diseases during the winter,
put they emphasize that these are
not TO be used as requirements for
springtime spraying.
The disease specialists report
that clearing the ground under
the trees, where the size of the
orchard permits, is a very good
way of avoiding many fungus dis
eases. These diseases are carried
by infected fruit or foliage, and
when these are removed during
the winter, the trees will have
healthy start in the following
spring.
Simple methods such as this,
used in combination with your
usual spraying program, can make
a real contribution to the growth
and the profits of your orchard or
your trees in your backyard.

How much are farmers paying

Is to 20 cents a buShel less, he
points out, but it may be costing
them as much as $50 an acre more.
Here's how Gerwig explains it.

on only 16 percent of the total
acres. Eighty four percent We're
seeded with uncertified seed
