This past week he made his hobby bring him laurels in the form ofa large trophy for first place in the first annual Haywood Open fiolf Tournament, which was held at the Country Club, where he is a caddy.. .; " '" j Inman has eaddied for many a golfer who sought to make par on even one hole, and during the tournament, he just op and shot the course par of 72 to nose out Howard Long, a fellow-caddy, wno came in from the 18th hole with a 73. Long shot a 71 in qualifying, and won a trophy for this achieve ment, v Both the leaders of the tourna ment "hitting 'em square ana traisrht" Long tucked a dozen golf balls under his arm as the runner-up prize. Leo Browning, also a caaay, took three more strokes than his two co-workers, and got a beauti ful trophy for shooting his 75. Donald Dunham, a steady shooter, carded 80 and received 10 golf balls. The surprise shooter of the tournament was 16-year-old W. J. Cox, Jr., of Miami, winner of the third flight with a card of 82. He received a silver trophy.

The tournament was sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce. Tryon Handed 8 to 6 Defeat By Hazelwood Trytn was defeated in his In dustrial League game Saturday with Hazelwood, 8 to 6. Although Tryon rallied in the closing in nings they fell short of their mark and Hazelwood triumphed. Kimberline led the Tryon team . Ht with a trinle and single in five trips, but the hitting star of the afternoon was nazeiwwu Fisher, who accounted for two triples and two singles in four efforts.". Woodard, Hazelwood hurier, gave up eight hits and fanned 10. . Score:., We have been a firm believer in athletics and now more than ever we think they should be practiced in all ages from the child just able to walk to the old man that is somewhat stooped with age. Our country needs men who are, phy sically fit and a good start toward the goal is to take part in some form of athletics in you home com' munity. Softball has been a happy solution to this question here in Waynesville and this summer as well as other towns and commu nities in this section. It is the belief of some that softball is on the down grade in this section, maybe that is so, but still there has not been any real weather for the fans to turnout It takes rather warm nights to fill the seats at the ball park. 11 i ' Let Freedom Ring!

Large Increase In Sale Of Fishing Licenses Over '40 There has been an increase of $870 in sale of fishing licenses for 1941 over the same period last year, according to G. C. Plott, coun ty game and fish warden. , In 1940 the sales from April the first to July the first amounted to $1,348.50 as compared to f 2,218.50 this year.' Mr. Plott attributes this increase to a number of reasons, including the heavily stocked streams, the better quality and size of the fish being put out by the hatcheries and a growing interest in the sport. In case you have not been out to the ball park at the high school lately, we now have one of the largest and best athletic fields in this section. Both of the stands are now concreted and the . field has been graded to the point where it is practically level and much larger, and is equipped with lights for both softball and football. It has been a hard and long fight to get the field completed, but at last this community has something to be proud of in the sports field. WEDNESDAY. JUNE 25 Sylva, 2 Byln Hector af Smith aa .

S We believe that credit should be given where it belongs, and so we take our hats off to "Deacon" Woodard, of the Hazelwood Manu facturers who pitched his team to a victory last Saturday afternoon, giving up only eight scattered hits and totaling ten strikeouts. The Manufacturers are not on top of the league standing by any means. but they showed that they , could play ball when they really wanted to. Also an unusual hitting' event took place the - same afternoon when Mayor "Dutch" Fisher, who pounded out two triples and two ingles in four trips to' the plate. Hazelwood took the game from Tryon 8 to 6. this has been only on the gridiron or on the hardwood in basketball, but now more of the sporting element can have a chance to par ticipate in this rivalry.
