It’s a very interesting story. ‘Major Smith is an active mem- ber of the Ardmore Golf Club, so he entered as the sole repre- sentative of that club in the Northwest Pacific senior golf tournament at the Oak Bay club last week. His age assigned him to “A” class — gentlemen who have seen at least 70 summers. The golfing major won. the first flight and received a hand- some silver tray, with cream and sugar. This victory just put him into his stride, so he belted out a long ball to win the Class “A” long driving competition. This neat victory rewarded him with half a dozen golf balls. Many Happy Returns On Tuesday of this week Major Smith celebrated his 75th birth- day. He is now laying plans to enter the same tournament next year when he will be assigned to the “AA” Class, for golfers who have attained three score and 15. ‘Sidney Church Is Scene of Pretty Summer Wedding Saturday.
