The Senate was in the midst of a series of roll-call votes which required me to remain close to the Senate Chamber. So I arranged to visit with them in a nearby office. We talked about all sorts of things—the energy situation, the economy, and many other issues. Finally, one young man asked: "Senator, if you had to name the most disap pointing thing about being in the Senate, what would it be?" . «. had to ponder that question a bit. In the first place, I don't think of serving in the Senate as a "dis appointment." As I have often said, being a part of the Senate is the greatest privilege that could come to a citizen, and I feel a tingle up my spine every time I walk into the Senate Chamber—even after five years. But, the young man had asked a serious question—and, after some thought, I decided that the one thing that disap points me most is to hear a Senator admit that he has voted a certain way for political reasons, and ’’hot in accordance with his conscience or best judgement. We've had several issues before the Senate lately which resulted in Senators confessing that they didn't dare to vote their honest convictions for fear of bad publicity back home, or because they were afraid they might offend some organized pressure group. AIR BAGS—There was, for example, the recent Senate vote to force every new car purchaser to pay up to S3OO extra for air bags. I voted against the mandatory air bags. I think it's fine for anybody who wants them to be able to specify that he or she wants air bags when buying a new car. But I don't think it makes sense for the federal government to require that extra expense, regardless of the citizen's wishes. After all, the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminis tration has found that if motorists would just use the seat belts already in their cars, that one thing would be 5% times more effective than air bags in saving lives, and 2% times more effective in preventing injuries. - • * Yet, several Senators said privately that they had voted to require air bags because they didn't want to be accused of being "against highway safety." ELECTRIC POWER—A week or so ago, the Senate voted, 56 to 36 to require electric power companies to give preferential rates to all citizens 62 years of age and over—rich and poor alike. / Numerous Senators admitted afterwards in the cloak rooms that this measure made no sense. There are 29 million Americans who are 62 or older. Seven million of these are in circumstances of poverty—meaning that 22 million other senior citizens, including the very rich, will be subsidized along with the seven million. And who will pick up the tab? Well, poor people under the age of 62. And young families, struggling to get along, trying to raise their children and make ends meet —just because some Senators were afraid to vote their convictions. The Senators knew this was an unfair and inequitable piece of legislation, but they were fearful that their opponents in the next election might charge them with being "against the elderly." So, seeing Senators vote contrary to their convictions is, indeed, the most disappointing aspect of being in the Senate. Just suppose these Senators were willing to bite the bullet, and do what they believe is right—instead of trying to do what they feel is politicallV popular.

The tournment was postponed from the earlier date of October 8,9 because of heavy rains. The course was in superb condition and the weather was perfect. Team competition had ten teams and also ten individuals for the crown. Opening day had defending champions down by two shots to the Great Smokies. Four low scores by Bill Van Arsdale (73), Larry Rogan (75), J.C. Hyatt, Jr. (78), and Alan Culberson (82), held off Etowah Valley’s Garson Burns (75), Jim Baldwin (77), Gene Blanton (78), and Buddy Baldwin (80) for a slim two-shot lead. Holding third place was Country Club of Asheville at 317. Individual chase, John Sronce shot a closing 35 to have a one shot lead over defending champion Bill Van Arsdale. Sronce shot even par 72. Tied at third were Brad Ragan Jr., Bill Lohr and George Ledford. The last round had indivi dual leaders paired and the leading teams playing head to-head. The front side held the teams closely contested. On the long and difficult back, I however, Etowah played through the Great Smokies and easily outdistanced them for the team trophies. Medalist honors were de cided by a dramatic finish on the closing holes. Three players were tied after 27 holes for the crown. Sronce had bogied #l2 and #l3 to fall behind. Lohr chipped in on the 14th for birdie 3 while Van Arsdale took a triple bogey 7. With some difficulty Lohr made sat the par 3, 15th 180 K yd to fall back. Finishing well ahead of the leaders was George Ledford shooting a K smooth 75 for a 149 total. A one shot lead fizzled with Lohr’s 3 putt on 17. On the □ 18th he hooked his drive into the 10th fairway. Bill was now blocked by a group of trees guarding the green. With the pressure on, he lofted an 8 iron over the trees 10 feet from the flag. The putt rolled dead center for a closing 74 and a one shot victory. Legion For War- Time Veteran [Cont’d from page 1] the individual veteran a chance to make his voice heard.
