The Rangers took a 2-0 lead on goals by John Slawson and Roy Macauley -â€" and two good goals they were. Rangers were awarded a free kick from about 20 yards out and SlaiVson made no mistake with his well-placed shot. Then centre forward Macauley made it 2-0 on a beautiful play up the right wing with Roy finish- ing it off. The roof then fell in with two‘ defensive errors and Newmark-‘ et tied it up. With the play going from end to end, it could have been anybody’s game. Only 15 minutes remained when Newmarket got the winning goal. Rangers» fought back in the closing minutes but just ‘could not sabre. The Rangers’ Second team was beaten 3-1 by Aurora, but claim the score should have been reversed. The boys from the Hill had two goals in the Aurora net, only to have them called back by the referee. (This ‘was the same team the Rangers eliminated from the cup race hast Week). Brian Graham scored the Hill’s goal and played a strong game along with Jack Kerno- han. The next game for both teams will be August 10. The first team will be at home to New- market and the second teamJ will travel to Orillia. Kick-off‘ for both games will be at six o’clock sharp. 1, i’Goal scorers for the Red Barons :were Lou Kennedy with (2) and Mark Kernohan and Ed Rayner with one each.

There’s pretty good money in it. Especially if your name happens to be Robert Trent Jones who builds 12 to 15 courses a year throughout the world. And a golf course costs $350,000 to $650,000 to build depending on the difficulty of the terrain. This same Mr. Jones ~â€" he‘s an American -â€" is presently among those architects being considered for the job of designing the new York Downs Club course on the Glenburn Farms (Donald Deacon MLA York Centre) near Unionville in Markham Township. The transaction for sale of the existing course property at Sheppard Avenue West and Bathurst Street was approved by the membership a few weeks ago and was finalized last week. A club official said there was “a faction within the club, which is a little bit afraid of Jones’ reputa- tion for building monster championship layouts which only the finest players in the world can mas- ter,” he explained. “We don’t know whether he would be Willing to give us what we would want, namely a good members’ layout, or whether he would take the property and design strictly what he felt it should have.” A good question. Predicting the unpredictable Mr. Jones is akin to doing the same for the weather. He has created controversy for every hole he has designed out on a golf course -â€"â€" and he has de- signed many holes. I - V ,7, ___ Golf professionals go into mini-and-major rages at the mention of his name. As a group, professional golfers refused ever again to set foot on Jones’ Spy- glass Hill course in Pebble Beach. California â€"-â€" the site of the annual Bing Crosby Tournament â€"â€" un- less Jones modified the course and made it easier. He finally did. “If Jones had to play this course for a living he’d be in the poorhouse.” Yet four years later, Jones points out with chest-puffing” pride, the same Mr. Ho ‘1 said: “You know, if I played more of your course. I’d probably be the only man in history to win five Open cham- pionships.” . .u. - My Lélégi‘éd great bantam Ben Hogan after win- ning the Open at Oakland Hills, near Detroit in 1951 on a course designed by Jones. - 4.. Jones has the knack â€"â€" he claims â€"â€" of laying out a course which can be very wicked or very easy. “We just built,” he states, “a course in Caliâ€" fornia called Birnam Wood. It was meant for use by 50â€"year-old or 55â€"yearâ€"old men. It’s 6,200 yards from the back tees, probably 5,200 from the front. And people say it’s a fun course to play.” No matter what the pros say (and the pros grouse the most because it’s more money out of their pocket the tougher the course) everybody else seems to love Jones’ courses.

Khan; and another one in Rabat for the King of Morocco. Jones was born in 1906 in lnce, England. the only child of Welsh parents. His father, an engineer, came to the United States when Jones was four years of age and worked for the New York Central in Rochester. At 16 and 120 pounds, Jones was a scratch, or par-shooting golfer but shortly after developed what some people insist is golfers’ disease â€" ulcers. That finished his golfing inclinations. But it also launched him on his career. He noticed an acouaintance was building a golf course. shrugged his shoulders, said “that‘s for me” and went on ahead. He designed his first course in 1929 with Stan- ley Thompson. a Canadian architect. “Tt was just after the stockâ€"market crash,” he recalls, “but the Depression hadn’t set in yet. Thomp- son and I did about three courses together‘ but they all went broke and we received practically no fee.” Links Tougher In Britain Conmarinq American golfers to Britishers, Mr. Jones had this to say: “My golf courses are designed for a specifically American clientele. British ‘links’ are much more difficult. The roth is left alone to become a tangled jungle and had shots are penalized ferociously.” You can’t do that in the United States, says Mr. Jones. “If we were to build a course like that the next day the; greens committee would decide to level the fairways. The American wants to excel. “He is more ant to adapt his playing field to where his ego can be satisfied by excelling than to accept a challenge. The Pritish golfer does not conâ€" sider a bogey a failure. The American golfer does.” Jones will not pick the course he’s built that please him most. “Golf courses are like children.” he says. “I have no favorites." But it’s clear that he has a special feeling for Spyglass Hill Where each hole is named after a character in Robert Louis Stevenson’s “Treasure Island”.

But it would seem a good bet that they could go much more wrong by not picking him. State his many admirers: “Jones has few unsatisfied customers.
