A certain small southwestern
newspaper cares very little for na¬
tional or international news, but
its enterprising editor is bedeviled
by an all - consuming desire to
“scoop” the other newspapers in
the region on local and sectional
news. One day he accomplished
the minor triumph of being the
first and only editor to report a
certain disaster in a nearby town.
The following week he scored an¬
other beat with the following an¬
nouncement:
“We were the first to announce
the news of the destruction of Jen¬
kins’ paint store last week. We
are now the first to announce that
the report was absolutely without
foundation.”

T more 0 LANE than MERRIT the title of there club was golf
champion at stake in today's match
—very much more, indeed. There
was, for instance, the need to wipe
out this Donald Young’s attempt to
humiliate Lane the evening before,
after the semi-finals, when he called
across the club dining room: “How
about a little bet on the match to¬
morrow, Merrif? Say, 55,000 or so?”
It was a deliberate, and Lane
him, thought, cheap Young, try and to embarrass
for the others,
knew Lane didn’t have 55,000. Old
Pop Weller, sitting with Lane, had
glanced at him to see how he was
, taking it. He hesitated and then
called to Young: “I’ll take that
55,000 bet! And the ‘so’ can be any¬
thing you want to make it’” Lane
had looked appealingly at Pop and
pleaded: “Don’t do it, Mr. Weller.”
But Pop snorted: “It’s about time
that show-off was taken down a peg
or two.” Under the circumstances
there was nothing for Young to do
but accept the bet, but Lane sensed
he wasn’t too keen about it.
And then, most important of all,
there was Kay Cawley. Now. up to
a few months before, to the Cawley
and Merrit families and, naturally,
Kay and Lane, the future was defi¬
nitely settled for these two. Then
Young entered the picture -with his
flashy man-of-the-world manners,
clothes and swank car. And he pro¬
ceeded to give Kay the rush of that
young lady's life. Lane was hurt,
but somehow- it all seemed so right.
Not that he blamed Kay. She was
young, pretty, and bubbling with
enthusiasm for life. She deserved
adulation and also the good times
that Lane, just making his start,
was unable to provide. In fact, with¬
out his father’s help, he would have
had to relinquish his membership in
the Midvale Country Club. At best
it woud be two or more years be¬
fore he could rightly ask Kay to set
the wedding date.
At breakfast Lane gave thought to
his problems. He wanted to win.for
his own sake; he wanted to taste
the sweetness of victory over that
blow-hard, Young; he wanted to
win for Pop Weller, fine sport,
gentleman and friend that he was;
and most of all, he wanted to win
back Kay. Of course, winning a golf
match wouldn't be enough for this
last, but it might help.
Lane arrived at the club a good
half hour before the time set for the
start of the finals, and as he drove
his modest coupe into the grounds
he saw Young on the practice tee.
"Mmmm-m,” he thought, “the guy
can’t be too confident.”
As he made his way through the
locker-room to his alley Lane was
hailed from all sides with “good
luck” wishes. Strangely, he felt
none of the excitement which
seemed to fill the room. He knew
that, besides Pop Weller’s large bet,

much money had been wagered on
the outcome of the match.
He dressed leisurely and he was
lacing his shoes when Young en¬
tered, held out his hand and in a
voice loud enough to carry, said:
“Good luck, Merrit.”
Lane promptly acknowledged and
returned the wish in kind, but
thought, “Still playing to the gal¬
lery.”
There was quite a crowd at the
first tee and for the first time Lane
felt a bit squeamish in the stomach.
On the tee itself he saw young
Willie Hopper waiting with his
clubs; young Willie, freckled-faced,
snub-nosed and hardly a dandy in
his well-worn denim pants and
khaki shirt; 'Willie, loyal and capa¬
ble at his job—the thought made
Lane feel better. He caught a
glimpse of Kay standing in the
crowd well back of the tee. Lane
He swung and hit, hard and clean.
waved, she smiled and waved back,
in encouragement, he hoped.
They drove off, straight and far,
with Young’s ball stopping a few
yards out in front. They halved the
first hole in par figures and that’s
the way it went until the seventh
when Lane rolled in a long, curling
putt for a par to Young’s bogie five,
to go one up. Lane held that lead
until the twelfth when Young
birdied the short hole after his iron
shot from the tee had stopped a
scant foot from the cup. Lane went
one up again at the seventeenth
when Young’s second found a deep
trap off the green. And that’s how
the morning round ended.
Gallery and players trooped into
the club dining room for lunch. The
big room was noisy with the clatter
of dishes and the chatter at the
tables as shots of the round were
talked over and replayed. Pop
Weller sat with Lane. “You played
fine golf, my boy, but I think, on one
or two occasions, a little too safe.
Don’t let my bet disturb you, Lane.
Win, lose or draw, the dickens with
it. It doesn’t mean a thing to me,
except the satisfaction I’ll get when
I collect it from that phony.”
At two the second round started.

Now, Midvale was no heart-break¬
ing course. Tough enough and long
enough, but an intelligent golf com¬
mittee had pointed to make it inter¬
esting and suitable to the games of
its members, rather than a test for
top-flight pros. It did boast, how¬
ever, one hole, the thirteenth, which
would tFy the skill of the world’s
best. Many Midvale members had
protested this hole, but the terrain
was such that the committee could
do little about changing it. Two hun¬
dred and fifty yards from the tee,
just far enough to catch the duffer’s
second or third, the fairway ended
and dropped abruptly into a gully
about fifty feet deep. This gully,
with excellent turf, stretched ap¬
proximately a hundred yards along
the bottom before the start of the
rise back to the second section of
fairway.

Washington, D. C.—June 23, 1947
—Bubble Gum is not to blaijae for
junior’s upset stomachs or any of
his other pains except maybe ach¬
ing jaws, the Food and Drug Ad¬
ministration said today. (Adv.)
still retained his one up lead of the
morning round. He had played
steady golf and two or three times
he had fought off brilliant play by
Young which threatened his slender
lead. On the tee Lane debated the
advisability of blasting for the gully
or playing it safe. He decided on the
latter, much to Wiilie Hopper’s vis¬
ible disapproval. Willie reluctantly
handed over the requested spoon
and ambled off toward the brink of
the gully. Lane, hitting first,
stepped to the tee; the murmuring
of the gallery ceased. He swung and
hit, hard and clean. The ball car¬
ried fairly straight as far as the
two-hundred-yard marker and then
hooked sharply downward and to
the left. Two long bounces and it
disappeared into the heavy rough.
Willie, on the other side of the
fairway, groaned as he hurried
across to locate the ball. A member
of the gallery pointed deep in to a
tiny white speck at the base of a
small tree. Willie glanced hurriedly
at the ball, his heart sinking, and
took up his position nearby. It was
a bad break and he was puzzled
that the ball had bounded so deeply
into the rough.
Meanwhile, Young’s drive, a tre¬
mendous clout, had carried the first
fairway and gained momentum as
it hit the downhill roll of the gully,
rolling almost to the very center.
Lane went into the rough and
glanced down at the ball Willie was
guarding. It was partly buried, its
markings completely hidden. It was
almost an unplayable lie and Lane;
berating himself for the error in
playing safe, had about decided the
best thing to do was to try to cut it
out to the fairway.
Just then someone called:“Here’s
a ball, Lane. Looks like yours!”
Jim Meredith, refereeing the match
walked to the second ball. It was
but a few feet in off the fairway,
sitting up pretty as you piease on a
small tuft of grass, its markings
clearly visible. Meredith ruled it
was Lane’s ball and Lane, with a
quick glance at the perfect lie, se¬
lected his brassie and sent the ball
sailing over the gully and'well onto
the second section of the fairway. It
was a perfect shot.
As soon as Lane had hit Young
walked up to Meredith. “I protest
that ruling,” he said. “How do you
know that was the ball Merrit hit
from the tee? It could have been
dropped there. I insist on examin¬
ing that other ball by the tree. I’m
sure it’s Merrit’s ball because, from
the tee, I watched it bounce into the
rough toward that tree!” His face
was white and set, his voice shaky
as the import of his words suddenly
“That’s your privilege,” Meredith
answered. He went over to the tree
and lifted the half buried ball,
carrying it back to Young. “See,”
he said, “it’s a Falcon, and you
know the make ball Merrit is play¬
ing.” With that he walked off.
Pop Weller, who had seen and
heard, muttered to the man next to
him. “There goes your ball game!”
And the ball game went. Young
dubbed his second completely, the
ball missing the top of the gully and
rolling back to rest half way up the
slope. He stood watching the ball
for a few seconds then, his nerves
breaking, slamming the club heavily
into the turf.
Yes, you’ve guessed it. Lane won
the match. Best of all, Kay rushed
onto the sixteenth green, where the
match had ended, to congratulate
Lane and—right smack in sight of
that large audience — threw her
arms around his neck and kissed
him!
And — much to Pop Weller’s
delight — Young’s $5,000 check
bounced!
