WATCHING THE ATHLETES
WITH DAVE SCLAIR
NEWS SPORTS EDITOR
On the golf scene , . .
Spent a few hours out watch-
ing the Winkler County Invi-
tational Golf tournament June
4 and was amazed at the tre-
mendous golfing out there.
That the champion finished
three other golfers who placed
in the top four.
About fishing . . .
Have heard from one Kermit
fisherman about the so-called
yo-yo fishing gadget.
The one fisherman we have
with a 201 was fine but that heard from told that he was
there was such a field of below- picked up by a game warden
par shooters was what amazed
me.
As many of the golfers fin-
ished their final rounds, they
came by the starter’s shack to
check scores and tell Curtis Al-
len, tourney chairman, the fine
job he had done in organizing
the affair.
And about golf . . .
The performance of Jerry Al-
ien at the Regional Jaycee golf
tourney at Andrews last week
was a fine reflection upon the
type of young golfers Kermit
has.
Jerry placed third in the meet
and now will take part in the
state tourney vying for a berth
on the state team which will
play in the national junior golf
tourney.
The state tournament will be
held at Wichita Falls June 20-
22. Jerry will go down with the
GOES BACK TO WORK AT 91
SYDNEY, Nova Scotia — The
sprightly Joseph White, 91, of
Sydney told officials to take
him off the unemployment com-
pensation rolls. After six
months of unemployment, he
aaid that he has found a job
as a carpenter.

for using it and was fined
$25.50 and the gadgets were tak-
en away.
Well, we have checked with
some sporting dealers and they
say they haven’t heard of any
law prohibiting their use. We
haven’t heard anything prohib-
iting them, either.
But, to make sure we intend
to write the area game warden
and check with him on the le-
gality of the thing.
For those who aren’t familiar
with the yo-yo, it works much
like a spring-wound clothesline.
When you jerk on the line it
automatically recoils into the
spool.
You bait the thing with what
ever you want and as soon as a
fish hits it — bang — it auto-
matically lands your fish.
Sounds pretty good to us, but
if it isn’t legal we sure hope
to find out. Sporting goods
dealers tell us they have not
been told not to sell the gadget.

Hurls Near Perfect Game
Jim Kapka pitched a one-hit- ond inning and two in the third
ter Thursday night as his Little

ed the Termites 15-0. Sports

Losing pitcher Clark had a
couple of doubles in his own
behalf.
Lions scored eight in the sec-
while the Cubs had one in the
first, three in the second and
four in the fourth.
In the Sports-Termite game,
Kapka’s fine pitching was back-
ed up by a triple and double by
P. Skinner and doubles by Per-
kins and C. Samuels.
In addition to allowing only
one hit, Kapka also struck out
15 of the 19 men he faced, walk-
ed none and hit none. Only
in the first inning did a man
reach first base.
Dailey was the losing pitcher
of the game. He had five strike-
outs and walked six. He had
help from Wharton in the game.
PET LOVER’S DOGS

ful of dogs and a handful of

ficials in Fair Lawn impound-
ed Brewer’s 34 scotties.
In addition, Magistrate Arthur
Minuskin fined him $200 and
sentenced him to spend 15 days

Sparkling Array of 2-Year-0lds
Carded for Ruidoso Racing
With the Nation’s top quarter
horse and thoroughbred two-
year-olds gathered at the Downs
for some of the world’s richest
races, Ruidoso has carded a
sparkling array or two-year-old
races this season with the ju-
veniles nominated ror the All
American Futurity well-sprin-
kled throughout the program.
Nearly two hundred of the
finest two-year-olds in the rac-
ing world have assembled at
the Downs this year for the
Kansas Futurity; the New Mex-
ico Futurity; the Ruidoso Quar-
ter Horse Futurity; the Ruidoso
Thoroughbred Futurity and last
but not least, the world-famed
All American Futurity that are
scheduled for the summer sea-
son. More than two hundred
thousand dollars in purses will
be offered in just these races
alone. Already many of these
youngsters have successfully
campaigned in Arizona, Cali-
fornia, Texas and in previous
races this year at the Downs.
The thoroughbred feature, the
Rio Ruidoso, finds seven of the
better middle-distance sprinters
competing at the seven-furlong
route. Dancing Deedie, with a
pair of brackets to show for her
last outing, looks like a sure
favorite in this short but select
field. While the 116 lbs. she has
drawn put her among the top
weighted horses in the race, the
distance seems to her liking.
Floor Girl, from the stable of
E. L. Jones, must draw some
consideration for her two wins
this year while Idle Rumor, an-
other winner of two in 1960 must
be considered.
high team series of 2,398 and
Serv-All came through with
