Though We Can't Stay Sixteen Forever

True we can't all stay 16 forever Perish the prospect!
Perpetual mmaturity would be nolerabe Growth brings
not only mental and spiritual rewards but its form
of beauty Yet surely beauty is far dscenibe in
the man who is actively interested in beauty
Who refuses to be resigned to the dowdy the dull the
colorless, the obviously "matronly"
Yet there are those who-quite consciously, believe
begin to talk DID, think DID, walk old, they
reach the mark Sometimes they refer to them
selves as the old man, their mates he old LADY,
believe with all my heart that this folly and those
who do so are actively encouraging their own downhi
slump Once we lose touch with the dreams and delights
and outward manifestations of YOUTH counting age
and ultimatey-death itself.
And while age and death must come inevitably to all
of u.s. 1t is healthier happier and constructive
thing to cling to the best aspects of youth as long
we cantor to do is to vigorously cling to life!

that Fields lost, but that he
played. And the two most sur
prised persons at Argyle Coun-
try Club, scene of the second
round, were Shull Of Walter
johnson and Frank Emmet
who runs the tournament.
. Emmet posted the name Of
Jim Duffy Of O'Connell as the
winner of his first-round match
with Fields. But actually Fields
won and then gave Shull a hare

moving out with the dawn to-
day in the opening round of
the $4,000 Texas Open, with

mentS this year, National Open

more than 100 from the star
studded tour slashed at par II
over the 6,616-yard Oak Hills

Palmer was seeking his third
Texas Open championship in a
row and he had a record back
of him to indicate that he was
playing about his finest golf.
Not only has Palmer won
three tournaments already
one more than anybody else
but he is far ahead in the

impressive.
He'll have a decided advan-

and Meissner, at 6 feet 4 inches
and 1877 pounds, is a big hitter.

beat Meissner around the
greens where Ricky isn't very
