CORNHUSKER GOLFERS
TURN IN GOOD SCORES
Cornhusker Golf Club turned out in
a wave which resulted in the best golf
shot since the Club was formed. Bill
Graves was the “Hot Shot” turning in
a score of 71 which is not often re
corded on this course. “B-29” O’Toole
and “Marine” Murrell were shelled
off of the course by “Grave-yard”
Graves and Malcolm Geo. Scott in the
only partners match played. “Ken
Smith" Wilson stood on the first tee
and watched with amazement as Mal
colm sank a long putt on the first
green for a three. He played the first
nine rather jittery from the effects,
finishing the last nine with a sloppy
38. “Mort” Thomas shot a very smooth
and commendable, game, but claims he
was hampered by the inconsistency of
his competition. “Marine” Murrell
came home from the “Wars” with a
“Pro” diploma secured somewhere in
the Virginia Hills. The boys warned
that the “Marine” was teaching golf
in Wash. D. C. and was thinking ser
iously of making that his living. But
a few of the boys have reversed his
ideas pronto. The following scores
were turned in Sunday: Graves, 71;
Scott, 74; Thomas, 75; O’Toole, 76;
Wilson, 79; Murrell, 79; Solomon, 85;
Hollins, 88; Collins, 89; Caldwell, 93;

ELLEN TERRY MARIE HALL ETS
MY DOG RINTY
A modem version of The Pied Pi
per of Hamlin, but placed in Harlem
is the plot of a book for children. MY
DOG RINTY, which the Viking Press
will publish May 27th. It is a very hu
man, appealing story about a Negro
boy named David and his beloved, but
misunderstood, dog, a wonderful rat
ter. When the dog begins tearing up
all the rugs in sight, it looks as though
he will have to be sold, but an under
standing Harlem editor helps to bring
happiness and prosperity where before
there was nothing but trouble.
The story is by Ellen Tarry and1
Marie Ets (see photograph), and the
illustrations are photographs taken in
Harlem by Alexander and Alexandra
Alland. The children who posed for
them are Camille, nine years of age,
who is David in the book; Marictte,
seven; Maurice, twelve; and Louis,
fourteen. All are children of Mr. and
Mrs. Isjuis de Brecourt of 1486 Fifth
Avenue, New York City. They are
students of St. Paul’s Parochial School
and were chosen for the photographs
not only because they are very photo
genic, but because thel all belong to
one family, and were easier to get to
gether!
Ellen Tarry is a newspaper woman
who has written several books for
children, among them Hezekiah Hor
ton, published by the Viking Press.
She was born and brought uu in Bir
mingham, Ala., taught school there,
and started her newspaper career. Ir.
1937, she came to New oYrk and work
ed at the Writer’s Laboratory on a
Bureau of Educational Experiments
Community Center. She then became
“Story Lady” at riendship House, a
Harlem Community Center, where she
first saw ‘Hezekiah” who is now her
godchild. Her newspaper work in NY
was with the Amsterdam News, and
she has written for many magazines.
In 1934, she worked for the USO in
Alabama and in New York, leaving
about a year ago to become a Group
Supervisor at the Harlem Service Men
Depot.
Mane Hall Ets, author-artist of Mr.
Penny and In The orest, both publish
ed by Viking, was born in Wisconsin.
At the age of seven, her talent as an
artist was first dsicovered, and she
was given special art training from
then on, but not until comparatively
recently, when she was studying under
Frederick Poole, was she encouraged
they will oppose President Truman.
