Attendance at the 1967 Ry-
der Cup Match will be lim-
ited to 15,000 per day. Gen-
eral Chairman Jack Hurke,
Jr. announce^ today.
The decision to limit the
galleries was reached in the
light of the small number of
players involved, Burke said,
and a desire of the sponsors
to give the fans an opportun-
ity to see more of the play.
”Wfth only 16 players in-
volved, we leel that larger
galleries would be undesir-
able," Burke said. ’ With lim-
ited crowds, we believe the
people attending will enjoy the
play much more."
The 17th biennial renewal
of the historic series match-
ing the best in America a-
gainst the best in Great Bri-
tain will be played at famed
Champions Golf Club, owned and gafftop In addition, an
and developed by Burke and his engraved trophy will be a-
pro sidekick, Jimmy Dema ret J
Dates are Oct. 20-22.
Begun in 1927. the Ryder
Cup competition has been
dominated by American pro-
fessionals. but the 13-3 score
has not dimmed inlet est in the
series In the last three re-
newals of thematches. British
professionals have scored

though failing to pull off a

McKINNEY AND HIS PORTRAIT
Portrait at Artist Painted By Settlemyre
new York County Nature Mu-
seum. was a client of McKin-
ney’s in British Honduras.
While on safari, their friend-
ship matured as each discov-
ered similar interests in the
other McKinney went to South
Carolina at Settlemyre’s invi-
tation and, now, will soon have
similar exhibits in this area
where tentative plans are al-
ready in the making.
Settlemyre told him: "You
have a story to tell." This is
surely true, but the tale un-
folds in many ways.
Right now, McKinney is
painting intently at Webb’s
Kolor Kurner and conducting
art classes. H» teaches by day
and paints, usually, at night
often working the night
away and, finally, falling
asleep for a brief hour on the
floor.
He has completed 53 paint-
ings in three months and says
he has enough paintings "in
his mind" to keep him busy
for two months. H* also de-
clares that he has "never fin-
ished a painting" but his own
dissatisfaction with his work
has not hindered his buyers
. . his work is selling rapid-
ly at prices which do not dis -
please him1
In Suuth Carolina, he sold
16 paintings from his latest
collection.
British Fbnduras. both the
pre-civilized land and it’s
people, have a deep, compell-
ing appeal for McKinney. Ihe
tiny village of Camalotte,
which he calls "home”, exists
primarily because of his work.
Its Indian inhabitants lived on
a large ranch when McKinney
made their acquaintance. The
Indians were forced to leave
the ranch when it was sold
and they had to settle in an-
other location. It was. at least
partially, through McKinney’s
efforts that the building of
Camalotte came about and
when he returns there, he will
continue his program of teach -
in^ modern agricultural meth-
For rather specific rea-
sons, McKinney does almost
no painting while he is in Bri-
tish Honduras. "The kids like
to help," he laughs, "and the
roaches eat up the paint ” He
does most of his work on lo-
cation in watercolor, sketch-
ing with charcoal, pencil, or
pen and ink . . , and storing
in his mind the scenes he will
one day transfer to canvas.
The natives, a mixture of
Maya Indians and Africans,
are called Creoles and speak
a kiiid of pidgin English which
McKinney describes as "ex-
tremely descriptive.” The
wonderful legends told by the
old men around the campfire
fascinate the artist and the
’tudy of this lore is another
interest that he shares with
the museum director. Settle-
myre.
Whether McKinney believes
•• or half-believes -- what
the natives say. he doesn't
scoff at their stories. The jag-
uar tooth he wears as a tie
tack "protects him from the
evil,” he smilingly says.
Perhaps so . it came from
a small female jaguar which
attacked him. "1 fired five
shots with my pistol and on
the fifth shot, she dropped at
my feet." he recalls.
McKinney doesn’t ordinar-
ily shoot the jaguars himself.
He lakes hunters into the jung-
les and tracks tfr big rare I

personally, sees in the work
of this artist.
McKinney moved to Alvin
with his family when he was a
year old After his years in
Alvin High School, he went
u>tv the army for his tenure
in Germany and other places
. . . then he just "hitch-
hiked around the country" for
about eight months.
Back in Alvin he attended
Alvin Junior College and. a-
gain, made contact with the
person to whom he attributes
' everything I’ve ever learned
about painting". Mrs. Cherry
Simpson taught him in junior
high, high school and junior
college.
"I’ve come in contact with
the things she taught me many
times." McKinney says. ' But
every basic fact about paint-
ing that I know came first
from Mrs. Simpson during
my studies in Alvin."
From Alvin he went to Den-
ton and attended North Texas
University then he was a
minister in College Port . . .
he returned to Alvin and work-
ed for a year at Newman Rice
Dryer before accepting an in-
vitation to visit a ranch in
British Honduras. He didn’t
come back for a year and a
half!
After three additional
months at Newman’s in Alvin,
he "went back home" to the
village in British Honduras
and was hired as a guide for
a safari company He hunted
for three seasons, and now
has his own safari company
to which he will return in
September.
About two and a half years
ago. McKinney had his first
exhibit of paintings here at
the First National Bank . . .
he has shown his work at the
Dallas Public Library . . and
more recently, he has been
in South Carolina for an ex-
hibit and lecture.
