garded as the favorite at
the present time. When
Lance copped the title in
1973 many observers felt it
was a fluke, but he backed
up his first crown by winn-
ing in a romp last year.
Don Stein will defend his
“B' crown and could be in
the championship flight
when the golfers tee it up
Saturday morning with the
16 low players making the
“A” flight.
Jim Balmer is the
defending *‘C'’ winner,
while Dave Hughes Sr. is
the man to beat for ‘‘D"’
laurels.
Meanwhile, Lance's
stiffest competition will
again‘come from the likes
of R.J. Bachman, Tom
Gauntlett, Jr., Bill New-
man, Rollie Schmidt, R.F.
Bachman,. Jim: Alexander,
Ed Rome and ‘Roberto’
Kopp. Former winners in
the group are Kopp, Sch-
midt, and both Bachmans.
Newman has™ been the
runner-up on several occa-
sions.
Hungerford told us last
week that he’s hitting the
ball better now than he
ever has. This could mean
trouble.

CLIPBOARD NOTES:
Irem Golf Association
Cup hasn't been settled yet,
but Rich Disque, Jr. and
his partner Charlie Prece
have advanced to the
finals.
Lloyd Werneka and Bob
Norman have to play
Andre Billinge and Gordon
Vivian for the right to play
Prece and Disque for the
Cup. All of the six are play-
ing below their handicaps
which should make for a
good final.
While ‘we didn’t see the
ball go in the cup Sunday
afternoon when Past
Potentate Tom Reese
scored his hole-in-one. on
the 17th hole, we did enjoy
his little dance. We were
confronted with a bunker
shot on the 16th, when Ed
Rome called out that the
ball was going down the
side of the green . and
looked close. Rome kept
calling for the ball to go in.
Which it did. Rome was my
playing partner but he
wasn't too concerned with
our bunker shot???
Reese hit a nine iron on
the par 3 hole which plays
to about 135 yards from the
bottom tee. Rounding out
the foursome were Andre
Billinge, Jim Brace and
Mike Nardone.
Our congratulations to
the ‘‘Moose’ on his Ace.
We're wondering when he’s
going to take care of the
golfers who waited for the
customary refresh-
ments???
Many weird things have
happened on the golf
course, but we were part of
two dandies recently that
are worth repeating. First
we were playing in a
“better ball” match ap-
proaching the par five 13th
hole. We hit a good second
shot. Our playing partner
hit a good second shot, too.
I thought I was away and
punched a wedge three feet
from the pin. You guessed
it. Wrong ball---out of the
hole.
Meanwhile, our opponent
came out of the woods and
was on the green in four
with a stroke. He pro-
ceeded to knock his putt
two feet from the cup. My
partner then three-putted.
Our opponent stroked his
putt by the cup and had a.
tough putt coming back for
the tie. As he stroked the
ball his putter blade hit the

matic, Power Steering,

ball twice. Two more shots
and we won the hole???
The other weirdo came
on the 18th tee. We stood
there waiting for one of the
longest hitters in Wyoming
Valley to crunch his tee
shot. He gave a couple of
pumping motions, looked
down the fairway, took the
club back and -- zap! He
swung so hard that his club
head wnet under the ball
and popped it about 20-feet
straight up. The ball came
down and bounced about a
loot behind the tee. It's the
shortest drive we've ever
seen that didn't hit a tree or
something.
Big Bob Bachman, who
had his problems winning
matches lately, rapped in a
12-foot putt on the par five
13th last week for an eagle
three. Bob is always good
for three or four eagles a
season.
