Birds squawked disgustedly as the biting autumn wind flouted their feathers. Golfers groaned in dismay as they donned heavy sweaters. Squirrels squabbled over acorns for their winâ€" ter‘s supply. Buch was the scene on local links last week,. Red noses accompanied shattering sneszes as wintry breezes caused shuddering wheeses. (Peem: All rights reserved.) In short, it was pretty miserable weather. Yessir, players have been warmâ€" ing their hands before driving into the rough. Refreshment havens on golf courses hit a new low in soft drink business. They have been serving hot soup. . Lake boys, (Those guys which get balls out of the drinks,) trembled as they braveâ€" ly plunged into grimy cesspools. Swinging reveries: "Here‘s that blasted water hole again. Rats, it‘s only a mental hazard. All I have to do is not to think about the water being there. That‘s it, I‘ll imagine I have a wide, green fairway beâ€" tween me and the cup. Now I gotâ€" ta keep my head down . . . look at that ball . . . keep my arm straight . .. follow through . . . approximate the distance . . . take a full swing . . . maybe I shoulda used a six inâ€" stead of this seven . . . oh well, here goes ..."

Players enjoy the softness of the greens, velvetness of the fairways and the trim cut trees, The forgotâ€" ten men who keep the course lookâ€" ing in topâ€"notch condition, arrive at work anywhere between 4:30 and 6 a.m. When the sun hits its apex and golfers dot the course, these felâ€" lows â€" have practically completed their day‘s work. Just count the traps and notice all the grass to be mowed; then you‘ll realize how much work is involved in the upkeep of a golf course. Miss Helen Peterson recently won the Exmoor ladies‘ championship over Miss Naney Lee Bowes, 2 and 1. Winding up the summer schedâ€" ule, Exmoor has planned a match play against par and the first 18 holes of the annual 54â€"hole Labor Day derby for August 31, Ossian Carison, Exmoor golf official, anâ€" nounced today.
