Of Golf

The first bole in one scored
by a lady on the local eourae
this year took place this put
Thursday on the third hole
when Mrs. Fays Palko of Lex
ington, Kentucky hit her tee
shot into the cup. As luck
would have it, she failed to
watch the ball long enough to
see it drop in. She waa never
theless, quite excited about the
perfect shot.' She waa playing
with her husband at the time
and he was more excited about
it than she. These nice people
spent several days In the Boone
area and played the local course
quite often.
Some of our local ladies
have started off the 1963 sea
son by winning some prises in
the Foothills Leagu e tourna
ment played recently on the
Lenoir course. Jo Joines, Lib
Robertson, Fern Hunt, Teresa
Greene and Fran Weber made
the trip with three of them
bringing back some of the ba
con. Teresa Greene won the
hole in one contest and Jo Jo
ines and Fern Hunt also won
prizes. Each won a new golf
ball.
The annual two day Foothills
League tournament is scheduled
for the local course May 20 and
21st with an extimated one
hundred or more ladies from
the Western North Carolina
area expected to participate.
They will tee off on number
one tee in the morning, leaving
the course open for local play
ers and guests after about 10:30
or 11:00 o'clock.
Billy Joe Patton has won the
North and South Amateur
Tournament for the second year
in a row and one of the fine
players he defeated on the way
to this Victory, Mr. Tom Draper
of Detroit, Mich., shot a 71 on
the local course the day after
losing to B, J. A group of us
were watching Mr. Draper on
the fifteenth hole, as he lofted
a nice shot from out of the
fairway trap onto the green
about ten feet from the hole.

Tlie flaf at the time wis locat
ed on the front of the green
close to the creek, but it didnt
teem to disturb him at all. This
was the same hole that cost
Billy Joe the 1961 Carolina*
Open title when he made two
double bogeys on it during the
three rounds of the Open. Mr
Draper lost to Billy Joe on the
final hole in a quarter final
match after coming from be
hind on the thirteenth hole, in
to a tie on the seventeenth.

GOLDWATER'S ADVICE
Senator Gold water (R., Ariz.)
advised Republicans to avoid
any sort of special appeal based
on race or creed" in seeking
voter support in next year's elec
tions.
Goldwater, a spokesman for
party Conservatives, said the
GOP ought to leave "emotional
gimmicks and fantastic prom
ises" to the Democrats.

Do you know how easy it is to take a corner
with a Corvair or park one? Turn this
newspaper sideways and it will jive you a
pretty good idea. The wheel handles just
?bout that easily.
The Corvair's engine is in the rear, for
not only greater traction, but more balanced
weight distribution. And that's what makes
the steering so completely effortless.
The engine is aw cooled, too. No radi
ator. No water or antifreeze. No boiling
over or freezing up to worry about. It takes
the weather and the terrain as it comes.
So think about those trips to the beach
this summer, those bright sunny days and
balmy moonlit nights.
And besides, looking at it from a very
practical point of view, it'# Trade 'N'
Travel time right now at your Chevrolet
dealer's. He's got some beautiful buys.
But you had better hurry before somebody
muscles in ahead of you. Spring's here.
Summer's coming fast. And with these sporty
good-looking Corvairs selling the way they
are, he who hesitates will want to kick
himself.
