TEE TIME By - Ann Robertson Sherwood Forest Golf Course Golf Pro 1 straight 3’s. (That s how last week’s column was sup* posed to end before the type lice slipped into the act. That was how A1 Dowtin scored his nifty even par round—18 pars in succession.) * * * The Fourth of July was a real Roman candle at Sherwood Forest as we enjoyed our biggest turnout ever — 89 players. To make it even grander we celebrated with the “spirit of 176.” That’s how many people played over the three-day weekend. And 117 of them elected to play in the regular weekly tourney which spanned the same period and was a blind bogey, low gross and Calloway system combination that made 27 swingers happy with one or more prizes. Biggest boom was produced by 18-year old Justin Eller. The Charlotte native, who is working with the Brevard Sanitation Depart ment this summer, discovered SPGC Saturday night just before dark. He sailed around in 56 blctws and was crushed that his lack of a partner prevented him from entering the weekly touma mnt. He promised that he would return. (And on Monday afternoon, with pretty Brenda Orr as his partner, he made the scene and fired the shots heard ’round the course. Two more trips were engineered, each in 56. When the smoke had cleared he had captured low gross, low Class A Calloway with a 54 and Brenda was one five who shared the blind bogey laurels at 53. The others are Betty Jones, Perry Crutch field, Shaun O’Rear and Don Roberts. Second low gross went to Terry Hile with 57. Youth was also served in the B and C “ Class Calloway as John Ledbetter, 10, Hen dersonville, bagged the former with a 55 which was matched by eight-year-old At lantan, Jamie O’Rear in the C category. Second in Glass A at 55 were Ed Latham, f Gary Hinckley and my oldest pupil, Nick Robert - - son, twice. Nine more places rounded out the A winners. B runners-up were Tom Walker, 56; Lewis Whiteside, 66VZ; Brian Miller, 57; Jack Brown, 57 Vg, and Gene White, 58. Miller was also second in C at 55 Va, followed by Preston Rahn and Millicent Latham with 57s. Best strings in the tournament were 11 3’s in Eller’s first Monday round and eight 4’s by " H. F. Northrop, Miami. Closest to the pin winners last week on No. 4 were Jim Riley, H. P. Wright, Volney Tinsley, Ed Latham, A. M. Tewkesbury and S. M. Brown. Tewkesbury, from Aiken, S. C., had the best shot—four feet, 10 inches, and he probably would have won Sunday (he was closer) except for the fact that you can’t win GuU^Tiuu^C^.TIC SHERWOOD FOREST GOLF CLUB Cedar Mountain, N. C TOURNEY JULY 10th. 11th Putts and Calloway Net Merchant Donors for this Week are Brevard Hardware Cardinal Cleaners Dairy Land Drive-In The Inn Boutique New Merchant Donor Is Wards News Stand — ★ — DONORS FOR PAST WEEK Panthers Win Minor League, B Little League Still Up For Grabs —— The clinching of the regu lar season Minor League championship, the closest race in recent Little League history going into the Anal week of play, ut a 18 inning no-decision marathon Babe Ruth League game highlight ed Tooth Baseball action here last week. Dennis Hamilton’s Panthers clinched the regular season Minor League championship when they got a brilliant no-hit performance by Randy Bryson against the rugged Red Sox. This, combined with a victory by the last place Braves over the second place Cardinals last Saturday night gave the title to the Panthers, who are also the defending champions. m the Babe Ruth League, the League leading Orioles and the Jays battled for fif teen innings and then decided to halt the 2-2 contest and finish it the next time the two teams meet. David Roberts started for the Orioles and was relieved in the eleventh inning by Mike Stanley. Chris Sneeden started for the Jays, and was relieved in the eleventh by Mark Hoop er. All four pitched well and should receive a great deal of credit for their efforts. In The hotly - contested Little League, five of the eight teams in the league still have a mathematical pos sibility of winning the regu lar season crown going into this, the final week of play. The Braves are still on top with a 7-3 record, but they have four games to play in this final week, and a loss in any of them could seriously hinder their championship hopes. Breathing right down the Braves’ necks are the Red Sox, 8-5, the Cardinals, 6-4, the Mets, 6-5, and the Colts, also 6-5. Only the Cubs, Pirates and Panthers do not have a chance at first place going into this last week. It’s almost a certainty that the regular season champion ship will not be decided be fore the last, games are play ed this Saturday. This should make the league play-offs, scheduled to start next Mom day, just about the best ever. All managers are in agree ment that any of the eight teams could get hot enough to win the tournament, and to call any one a “favorite” would be sheer folly. True baseball fans won’t want to miss a single game in the play-offs next week. DONKEY BASEBALL will be coming f
