The 406th Terrible Twenty tournament was held March 11, at Lakeside Golf Club,-with Virgil Oliver our host. "Lakeside in April," the slogan of our old member Stoefle, was turned into Lakeside in March, due to a big reconst-ruction planned for April 1st, and what a differenie-part of the grass had come up and part had not, and no "winter rules." Back to April for Lakeside next year, with hopes of better lies.

_ Tom Fleming won lhe lst flight, 79-8-7I, and Hervey Bowles won the 2nd flight, 87-21-4-70. That man Bowles should be an inspiration for all of us old hackers. He's about the oldest member, plays once a month, .doesn't practice and shoots two successive 87's, with a 2l handicap, and the 21 is calculated on U.S.G.A. rules (dropping to 20 this month). James W. Newquist, the Pasadena wholesale lumberman, was the guest of Maule and shot a gross 80. Annandale, April 22nd (Friday), with the finals of the match play. Winners will play King and Pruessing in May for the match play cups.

Ojai is set for Friday, June 10. If you wish to stay overnight get in touch with the club ; several rooms or cottages have been reserved. There will be a dressing room for men and one for women which have been arranfed for by Paul Rekers. The dinner will be open for guests and wives.

-Sincerely yours, H. M. Alling.

Western Pine Firsl-Gluqrter Production Up; Shipmenrs Dip

The following report for the first-quarter, 1960, production and shipments of \Mestern Pine region lumber products, and estimate of probable second-quarter shipments, was issued by W. E. Griffee, secretary-manager of the \Mestern Pine Association:

Company

"sawmills in the Western Pine region did a surprtisingly good volume of business during the first quarter of this year in spite .of the lower rate of home construction and the unusually severe winter weather east of the Rockies.

"Preliminary estimates place first-quarter lumber production at a record 2,001 million feet, up 4A/o frorn the first quarter of last year. Favorable winter weather in much of the region, together with new mills built during the last year, encouraged more than a normal' volume of production in relation to shipments.

"First-quarter shipirrents estimated at 2,O14 million feet were down 3.2/o frorn a year ago. This volume was better than the number of housing starts and the severe winter weather in the east might lead one to expect.

"Estimated stocks at the end of the quarter were 2@0 million feet, up from 1845 million feet a year ago. Although this is an increasc of l}7o, it should be remembered that last year's stock figure was during a period of exceptionally good demand.

"The seasonally adjusted annual rate of housing starts may have passed its low point during the first quarter. While it takes several months for the underlying causes to show up in the figures on actual housing starts, the recent turn toward easier mortgage money .and the high rate of employment should make themselves felt over the n-ronths ahead. Housing analysts are beginning to'revise upward their forecasts of this year's home building.

"The Western Pine Association's recent change in its grading rules for framing lumber was not made to obtain any competitive advantage. Neither was FHA's interim approval of equal stresses and spans for all Douglas Fir and Larch joists and rafters, grade for grade, expected to more than recognize construction practices which were satisfactory for many years before FHA and its gradestamping requirement came into the picture. Nevertheless, these recent developments should remove some roadblocks to the distribution of framing lum,ber from mills in the Western Pine region.

"The combination of good weather in western lumber-producing areas and very late winter in the east has caused the indust'ry to produce somewhat faster than the market really requires, at least in some ite,ms. The coming of spring in major consuming areas should help colrect this situation but the current slump may extend well into the second quarter.

"Based upon the above factors and all other available information upon pr()spective demand, it seems probable that during the second quarter of 1960, shipments (consumption) of lumber from the Western Pine region will approximate 2420 rr'illion feet, or about 5% below'\ose in the booming second quarter of 1959."

Builders

Isn't it strange that princes and kings, And clowns that caper in sawdust rings, And common folks like you and me Are builders for all eternity?

To each is given a bag of tools, A shapeless mass and a book of rules; And each must make, 'ere life be flown, A stumbling block<r a stepping-stone.

A Chinomon Writes About Americqns

A Chinaman, who had lived but a short time in this country, wrote a letter to a friend in the old China of happy years ago in which he discussed Americans in this way:

"You cannot civilize these foreign devils. They are beyond redemption. They will live for weeks without touching a mouthful of rice but they eat the flesh of sheep and bullocks and even swine in large quantities. That is why they smell so badly. Every day they take a bath to rid themselve5 of their disagreeable odor, but they do not succeed. Their meat is carried into the room where they eat in large chunks, often half-raw, and they cut and slash and tear it apart like savages. They eat with knives and prongs. ft makes a civilized person very nervous to watch them. One fancies himself in the presence of sword-swallowers. They even sit down at the table with women, and the women are served first, reversing the order of nature. Yet the women are to be pitied, too, for on festive occasions the men grab them in their arms and drag them around a roorh to the accompaniment of the most awful music."

Repetition

John Galsworthy said: "My experience tells me that what you have said before you had better say again, if you want anybody to pay attention to it."

The colored preacher, asked about his preaching, said: "Fust, I tells 'em what I'm going to tell 'em; then I tells 'em; then I tell 'em what I done told 'em."

All Okoy

Film Director: "You rush to the bridge, climb the parapet, and plunge into the icy water below."

Actor: "But I can't swim."

Director: "That doesn't matter-it won't show."

Got Results

An executive who is a great believer in efficiency hung up a sign in his office that read: "DO IT NOW." Within 24 hours the cashier had run off with the contents of t]re ofiEce safe, the steno had eloped with his eldest son, the office boy threw the inkwell into the electric fan, and the entire office force struck for a six-hour day.
