WASSIE QIRDIES By DICK MILLER

|~"1 OOTBAI.L. lias Its kickers, Ir I P l ' nt> Pl &c ® and drop 1 1 I kick. The mayor will tell yon the city is made up of kickers about taxes. A baseball umpire will veilfy the statement that all ball players are ktekers. The telephone operators will tell you that the above mentioned aren’t the half of them. Golf has its kickers, too —those who enter a tournament, finish down the list, and swear the handicap committee doesn't know a thing about figuring handicaps. At Woodstock Club Saturday the golf kicker will have his day. According to a notice received from G. Vance Smith, chairman of the publicity committee, each entrant will bo allowed to choose his own handicap. After play Is over the entrants will assemble for a big steak dinner In the club. Numbers between 70 and 80 will be placed In a hat. The fifth number drawn out Is par for the tournament. Those who come nearest according to their own handicaps will be awarded prizes. To many members of the club the course this season will seem qujte different. The distance between hole one and the tee has been lengthened and Fred Schopp, professional at the club, Is constructing a neW green. The bunker across the fairway has been removed and sand traps added. Greens that were fair last year are beautiful this year. Schopp has removed the sand boxes. The club this year furnishes each player with wooden tees. Play Is speeded up by the elimination of making sand tees, wiping of the hands and such. It Is estimated that for a foursome forty minutes is thus saved In eighteen holes. • * • We axe sure the membership will enjoy the course rearrangement. The tournament Is bound to be a howling success. It Is one of these affairs that starts the golfer away into a season minus the nervewracking tension of an early regular tournament. • • • Bill Mayborn told us Vo day he was going out to Highland Sunday and see If he couldn't duplicate Frank Madden’s sensational "hole In one” made off No. 15 last Sunday. Asa matter of fact, that little cup on No. 15 green will be expected to be quite elastic, now that Frank's feat has gotten around. • • • A few days ago we watched Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Rhoades, new residents, who recently moved here from Kansas City, taking lessons from Harry Schopp, at South Grove. Thursday Mr. and Mrs. Rhoades didn't have distance, but th.ey had direction and their shots from the first tee were easily found In the middle of the fairway. It proves there is nothing like a correct start. • * If you are planning on playing at Pleasant Run Saturday and Sunday you had better get your reservation In early. The nice weather today caused many to call and Wally Nelson states indications point to a capacity crowd on the course. After all Its a great thing to be able to drive up to the links and tee off without a long wait. • • • Mrs. E. G. Linkhart and Mrs. W. T. Ray were not to be Interrupted by a little cold, and their golf engagement, was held Wednesday, as planned. Pleasant Run has some feminine players who are expected to finish in the money at future tournaments. S. P. Dukes, W. P. Ray, E. D. Fitzgerald and P. J. Dungan, formed a foursome that played a snappy round Wednesday in one of the few games that, showed no effects of the weather. THIRTEEN QUALIFY ATLANTIC! CITY, N.
