A copy of the Fairhope Courier tells us that the Fred Heides and Hal Bordwells are guests of thje Grand Hotel, on beautiful Mobile Bay. Point Clear Alabama. Enclosed is a map showing us how to reach this beautiful vacation spot. Yeah. If our grapevine information is # correct. Fred is down there to 'brush up on his golf game. Watch him burn up the course when the home club opens. Which reminds us that our Mc- Henry Country Club Pro, "Doc", and yours truly made a pact some time during the winter to promote a golf column. They have been started before, but fell by the waysltfe for one reason or another. Frank Holt tells us that Bopp's Tavern bowling team of Harvard Is leading the big county tournament being rolled at Crystal lake. Bopp's bopped 'em at a 2985 clip. Townsend's of Woodstock hit 2900 on the head. Norsemen's of McHenry turned in a 2710 score while the Sportsmen's gang hit 2704. The tournament rolls on. More about it later.

Elgin didn't rate in the various polls, but went right ahead to win the regional and sectional meets. They must have something. Maybe not enough for the top spot, but enough to come close. This is news: Doctor Chamberltai ltd not plaa to attrind the state tournament. --And Howard Wattles took a long trip after his favorite Crystal Lake five faded in the regional.
