Monday League matches-and the
year-end Fun Day and annual
banquet which was held last

cards among Twin Elms men.
Club owner Chris Demo went
around the nine in 38, having
eight par holes and one bogey
while Greenskeeper Harry Coney
also had a 38, as did Gerry Ni-
vison. Nivison's 38 came despite
a troublesome double bogey on
the short 8th hole.
Jim Olson carded a 37 on the
nine to eclipse the others and
was only topped by Club Pro,
Jimmy Cromb who came in
"with nines" of 35-3G 'to record- a
71.
Among women players recently, Mrs. Betty Fineout's
three-over-par 81 took the honors. This card showed four birdies in the first nine.
Flight winners in the Men's
Monday League tourney were
1st, Rod Kigar; 2nd, Homer
Douglas; 3rd, Floyd Stanley;
4th, Ernie Bryant; 5th, Don

Now is'the time for farmers
to file for their gasoline tax refund. To receive a refund for

Elwood adds that Form 2240
must be used to apply for the

from the local' internal revenue

He Warns that no refund Will be
made for gasoline used off the
farm, such as for transporting
farnily or farm goods on the
public highway. Any owner, tenant or operator of^a farm can
