LOST LUGGAGE
Nothing would spoil a great
vacation quicker than dis
covering that your luggage
has been lost. No matter how
you are traveling you need to
do several things yourself to
try and prevent encountering
the lost luggage problem.
Here are some suggestions:
-Place your name and
address on the inside of the
suitcase
-Place an identifying mark
on your luggage. A piece of
colored tape or a decal may
help you identify your
suitcase from someone
else’s.
-Pack all valuables such as
jewelry, passports, etc. in
your hand luggage
-List the items in your
suitcase with their monetary
value. Hopefully you won’t
need the list but it may be
helpful if you have to claim a
file
-List the items in your
suitcase with their monetary
value. Hopefully you won’t
need the list but it may be
helpful if you have to file a
claim for lost luggage.
-Remove all old baggage
tags —otherwise they may
cause confusion.
-If traveling by common
carrier, check to see that the
ticket clerk puts the correct
distination tag on your
suitcase.
Smolka
On Golf
Six teams, twelve players
in all, from the Deer Trail
Golf Club took part in the
Peach Belt Four Ball Golf
Tournament in Thomaston
this past weekend. Two
teams won their respective
Flights. They were the Pro,
Lorie Mangham, who was
teamed with Beaver King.
After shooting an 80 the first
day, the twosome came back
with a 72 Sunday to win the
Third Flight.
A couple of mainstays, Joe
Brown, Jr. and Tommy
Glidewell put together a 75
and a 70 to take the First
Flight. Terry Kitchens and
Charlie Brown ended up in a
tie for second place in the
Second Flight with a 78 and
73 and lost in a sudden death
playoff and had to settle for
• third place.
Bill Nelson and David
Brown put a 73 and a 71
together for the two days, but
it wasn’t enough to top the
field and they had to take
second place in the Cham
pionship “B” Flight.
In the Championship “A”
Flight Johnny Morris and
Gay McMichael scored two

LAUNDRY PROBLEMS
If the kids come home from
camp this summer with a
suitcase full of dirty clothes
you may find some stains
that need special treatment.
Here are some instructions
for spot and stain removal:
-Avoid hot water on
unknown stains
-Pre-treat oily stains on
polyester fabrics or perma
nent press finish with an
aerosol spray soil and stain
remover
-Small ink or oil spots can
sometimes be removed by
saturating the spot with
aerosol hair spray and then
washing in warm soapy
water.
-Avoid excessive rubbing,
it may abraise fabric
-Ammonia will sometimes
remove pencil marks if you
put it on the stain and follow
with a detergent treatment
-If perspiration has
changed the color of a fabric,
try to restore it by treating
with ammonia or vinegar
(sponge on stain, rinse and
then launder)
-Mercurochrome and mer
thiolate stains are difficult to
remove after they dry. Try
soaking overnight in a warm
detergent solution containing
four tablespoons household
ammonia to each quart of
water.
-Never dry or iron a
garment with a spot or stain
because the heat may set the
stain permanently.
71’s, but the field was a little
too competitive and they
didn’t place. The final
twosome, Donnie Nors
worthy and Terry Duke
posted a 74 - 79 in the
Championship “B” Flight.
A special weather note
from Johnny Smolka. For
some reason or other
rainbows don’t seem to
appear as often as they did
years ago. At least that’s the
way it seems to me. But did
you ever see two in one day?
My friend and neighbor
David Biles usually spends
some time with me on
Sunday mornings at the Golf
Course. This past Sunday
about ten o’clock in the
Southwest portion of the
course, sort of over number
six green, David and I saw
the first one. It wasn’t as
clear as some have been, but
it was visible.
Later in the day, at about*
seven p.m. while in Griffin, a
group of friends and myself
spotted another in just about
the same spot. I believe the
last rainbow that was really
visible here at the golf course
occurred on the 20th of July,
1969 and that was the day
that Neil Armstrong walked
on the moon.
