Ben Hogan has done it again.
The precision man of golf
teamed with Sam Snead to win
the Canada Cup International
matches in England from the
best pros from 29 nations.
What’s more, Hogan won the in-
dividual trophy, too.
Bantam Ben should have quit
golf a long time ago—but he’s
still winning beeause he’s a
fighter all the way.
If you doubt it—let’s go back
seven years. It is 1949—and Ben
Hogan rides on top of the golf
world.
Then, one night, driving with
his wife, Hogan's car is hit by a
speeding bus. Ben sheilds his
wife from injury. He suffers
three cracked ribs, a broken col-
lar-bone an a broken ankle. For
a while, there is a question whe-
ther he will live. Later, the doc-
tors mournfully tell him he will
never play golf again.
But they don’t know Ben. For
two months, lie lies in a hospital.
Then, more months of slow con-
valescense. During which Ben
does some putting on his living-
room floor. Later he goes out on
the course for a few practice
swings. Then, ten months after
the accident. Hogan stuns the
sports world by announcing he
will come back.
That in itself is something.!
Ben makes it tougher by enter- j
ing the Los Angeles Open at the,
Riviera Country Club .. a mur-1
1 derous 7,000 yard layout which |
| makes healthy men weak. One j
| hole is 585 yards. Another meas- j
j ures 569. The relatively short
j par-three holes are booby-trap- i
| ped with sand.
I But, Ben is undaunted. With
an admiring crowd at his heels,
he plays over the first nine in
34. That’s one under par. Hogan
weakens a little on the home
nine. He takes a 39 and finishes
with a 73—just two over par.
You have to hand it to the little
guy for plain, ^unadulterated
heart.
To some, Hogan is only put-
ting on a show ... demonstrating
that he is still around.
But Ben isn’t satisfied with
anything but the best he can do.
He doesn’t go out on the course
for show. On the fairway, he is
playing ... and when he plays,
he plays to win.

Soil Bank Papers
Now Available
From County ASC
Soil Bank Acreage Reserve
agreements are now' available
for signature in the county ASC
office. S. A. Whitfill, Chairman
of the County Agricultural Stab-
ilization and Conservation Com-
mittee, announced today. Farm-
ers may obtain full information
there on how they may parti-
cipate in the Acreage Reserve
part of the Soil Bank this year.
“The Acreage Reserve is the
first part of the program to get
into operation for 1956", the
Chairman explained. "While
farmers may sign an agreement
anytime before July 20, those
who want to participate in the
program should call at the of-
fice soon. July 31, is the last
date for plowing or discing a
cotton crop in order to reduce
the acreage below the farm al-
lotment.”
Besides permitting farmers to
incorporate into the soil, by
plowing or discing ah acreage of
cotton within the allotment, the
1956 Acreage Reserve contains
several other special provisiohs
which enable farmers to take
part in the program this year.
Thus, a rarmer may earn a
payment for underplanting cot-
ton if he can certify that he un-
derplanted either in anticipation
of complying with the program
or because of adverse weather

WASHINGTON, D. C. (UP).—
The nation’s air chief wants to
step up intercontinental striking
power to meet the threat of Rus-
sia’s growing air strength.
Air Force Chief of Staff Gen.
Nathan Twining, has recom-
mended a 50 per cent jump in
heavy bomber wings. That would .
mean 17 bomber wings by 1960
instead of the present program i
for eleven. About 3300 more B-
52’s would be needed ... costing!
nearly $2L billion dollars.
Air Force Secretary Donald |
Quarles revealed Twining’s
recommendation at a Senate
armed services subcommittee
hearing on air power. Quarles;
did-not say when General Twin-
ing suggested the increase, but
it was within the last few
months.
General Twining is in Russia.
Today he set off on a tour of
World War II battle sites at Stal-
ingrad.
