"Red Gober can do it and in his case it's quite an accomplishment because he's years old and a 66 is good anybody's course. Gober's athletic, career is i lastic. He played baseball in Pacific- Coast League 40 a a ago, didn't take up golf until 53 and this year he three rounds of 63. Powerful hands and wrists are' the secret of his golfing success. He has a wide open stance- and a three-quarter backswing but when that club head gets near the ball those powerful wrists come into play.

He lashes drives past the 250-yard marker regularly. Gober not only outdrives those he playing with but he'll out- walk them, too. Gober played baseball in the Pacific Coast League with Los! Angeles in 1911-lv-is. He shot a 63 qualifying for the national public links tournament this year along with the same score in a couple of other tournaments.

Parker piloted Temple to first place last season but lost in the playoffs. jRead The News Classified Ads.
