GOLF NEWS AND COMMENTS
At Southern Pines Country Club
. By DAVE WAGENVOORD
Last Sunday Joe Carter enter
ed a ringer tournament at the
club, teed off and scored four
birdies on his first 18 to take an
early lead. Three of the birds
came on the par 3 holes on the
front nine. “All I am or ever will
be in the game of golf, I owe to
my putter,” said Joe after the
round.
Is It Putting?
“The bull of the woods,” Col.
Jack Dibbs, carded a fine 72 over
the weekend. Dibbs recently re
turned from Virginia where he
reputedly found “the secret of
success” in golf.
Other good rounds included
Bill Woodard’s 73, and Herrmann
Grover’s pair of 72’s. Jim Besley,
Jr., described Grover’s rounds as
follows: “It was the most ridicu
lous putting exhibition I have
ever seen in my mnay years on
the links. Basically, Grover is a
llousy putter and whe'^n he does
things like this while playing
against me I see there is no just
ice in practice. He was very

Challenge

ed an open challenge to compete

miniature golf courses either in
Southern Pines or Aberdeen.
Ruby, who works out almost
daily on the tiny courses, stated
that necessary equipment to ac
cept the, challenge includes a put

How To Stay Alive
Roy Grinnell tells the story
of Bill Warren slicing his drive
from the first tee and the ball
ending up on one of the giant ant
hills which border the fairway.
Bill decided to use an eight iron
for his second shot.
He swung completely under
the ball dnd killed 10,000 ants.
His next swing again missed the
ball and killed 10,000 more ants.
At this point there were only
two ants left alive, “A” and “B.”
Just as Bill was getting ready to
swing again “A” turned to “B”
and said, “If we’re going to live,
we’ve got to get on the bal!”

True to form. Congressman C.
B. Deane is hard at work for his
constituents: ^his time, the farm
ers of his district and, incidental
ly, of the nation.
From his home in Rockingham
last week, speaking on the
eve of his departure to Washing
ton to vote on the Farm Bill,
Deane stated that “the time is
long past due for action for the
farmtrs.”
Mr. Deane said that he had
within recent days talked with
many farmers in his district who
feel, with him, that the time has
come for the Democrats and Re
publicans to forget this is an elec
tion year and begin to legislate
for the farmers. Mr. Deeme stated
that he “feared that both parties
have been guilty of trying to
court the November election
vote.”
Mr. Deane stated, “What we
need today is for the politician to
forget himself and put the wel
fare of the nation ahead of his
own personal ambitions.”
Against Hurtful Imports
During debate on the Farm
Bill which passed the House Sat
urday, Rep. Deane spoke out
strongly on the House floor for
Section 203 of the bill. This sec
tion assigns to the President the
repsonsibility to prevent imports
from other countries hurting U.
S. farming and textile industries.
In urging passage of the Farm
Bill, Rep. Deane said that he was
hearing from mill owners and
operators of the Eighth District
that the rate of textile imports
from Japan is having a disastrous
effect on the textile industry,
with a prospect of co-nsiderable
textile unemployment unless the
Administration takes action to
change the situation.
Several other bills are now
The use of narcotics is on the
increase in North Carolina, mem
bers of the Moore County Law
Enforcement Officrs Association
were told at their regular month
ly meeting Monday night in Car
thage.
Robert Pope, State Bureau of
Investigation agent with the nar
cotics division, told the officers
that there are at least 1,000
known addicts in the state “eind
probably twice that numbei/ who
are known,”
Pope, who works the eastern
part of the state, said that one of
the most serious problems facing
the state in its war against nar
cotics users is the well-planned
methods that out-of-state dealers
have in smuggling dope into
North Carolina. Another prob
lem, he said, is the increasing use
of barbiturates as a substitute for
illegal opium and marijuana.
“An addict, who is a heavy
user, must spend from $25 to $40
per day for his dope,” Pope said.
Unless the addict is independntly
wealtfiy or has a source, he must
turn to crime to raise the money.
All too often the addicts sell to
pending before the House Ways
and Means Committee to afford
protection on textile imports.
Rep. Deane said, adding that he
is prepared to support these
measures in the event that the
Prsident does not choose to exer
cise his powers under Section 203
of the Farm Bill.
The Farm Bill, as passed by the
House last week, will not solve
all farm problems, Rep. Deane
said this week, but he points out
that the measure contains good
provisions for both the farmer
and the textile industry.
