The Sky’s the Limit The other day the editor tried to transcribe accurately a recording —a regular hi-fi recording, with normal singing. To get every word, I played the record over a number of times. Finally, there were two places where I could not quite hear the word, no matter how I adjusted the machine. I called in the missus, and she couldn’t catch it, either. That’s one advantage that the printed word haa — if you don’t understand it, you can read it ever, and if you still have trouble you can eall up and enquire. We hear a lot today about competition between newspapers, radio stations, and TV. Actually, newspapers communicate in a completely different way from the vocal-motion-sight media. A newspaper story, or ad, is recorded. It ran be seen any time of the morning, noon, or night that you took at it. If you want to save it, you can cut it out and earry it with you — like a grocery ad or furniture ad — or paste it in an album — like a wedding, birth or birthday. Newspaper stories are limited only by the creativity of the writer — and newpaper ads are limited only by the imagination of the advertiser or his advertising man. A newspaper reader scans a page, and his eye picks out what interests him. The primary appeal of a newspaper is news — and a new ad, new price, or new product catches his reader’s eye. Now, suppose we printed a newspaper in magic ink. This ink suddenly appeared in print at 6 and 6:01 it disappeared. Would you buy an ad printed with that magic ink? Or would you prefer one printed in regular ink, that would be visible in the home to the subscriber, for many hours, and to all who came into the home? And another example. Suppose you advertise, and your ad appears on the same sports page with the account of the sectional final game. This is probably the most-read sports event of the season — yet probably it interests less than 40% of the people; less than 10% saw and fewer than 15% listened to it, or watched it on TV, and another might read the story, because they never miss anything in the local newspaper. But if your ad appeared on TV, or radio, with the basketball game, then exposure resulted to only a comparative few. And in future years, when you get out the yellowed clippings of your senior year, and see the advertisements alongside, and recall the low, low prices and fine bargains of byegone days, you appreciate the recording value of the local newspaper.

Present Day Golfer Needs Be Scientist By DICK WEST Untyed Praan International WASHINGTON (UPI) - Last weekend many areas of the country, including this one, bade welcome to the first snow of spring. The first snow of spring is always an inspirational event. I was so moved by the sight that I felt constrained to commemorate it with a little poem. It is titled “Ode of a Spring Blizzard, or. If I Were Mother Nature I would Lift Up My Skirt and Scream.” And it goes like this: “A snowfall on the first day after “The Vernal Euquinox “Is obnoxiously incongruous, hhe “Shortening bread with lox.” There isn’t much a red-blood-ed American boy can do on the first snowy weekend of spring except watch golf matches on television. I did that and I was amazed at how much the game has changed since I quit playing. Golf Is Simple Golf used to be a simple game for simple minds. You just took a set of clubs and kept hitting the little white ball until it dropped into the hole. But to play golf nowadays you need a science degree and almost as much paraphernalia as a road company production

of “War and Peace.” Hitting the ball appears to be only a minor part Os the game. The players I saw on television spent most of their time testing wind currents and surveying the terrain. Had not the announcer identified them as golfers, I would have taken them for meteorologists and civil engineers. It requires only a small amount of foresight to see what golf is eventually coming to. Something on this order, I’ll wager: Carries 98 Clubs Each player will be equipped with 98 golf clubs, a barometer, a thermometer, an aerometer, an anemometer, a sextant, a transit, a short wave radio, a gyroscopic compass, an electronic computer and 18 weather balloons. Rather than have a caddy, he will employ a safari. At each tee, the golfer will send up a balloon to ascertain the climate of that particular hole. These readings will be supplemented by short wave reports from the Tiros weather satellites. Such data as a barometric pressure, humidity, high and low tides, sunrise and sunset, and the player’s horoscope will be fed into the computer along with a topographic map of the fairway and green. Within 24 hours, the computer will provide a ballistics summary advising the golfer which club to use and how to swing it to achieve the desired distance and trajectory.
