Friday evening Mr. and Mrs. Whether it's driving a golf ball 150 to 200 yards down the fair way or driving an automobile from California to Nebraska a lone have confidence, go a hend and do it! That was the advice of Mrs. Winifred Johnson, San Diego, Calif., aunt of Francis M. Casey of Plattsmouth. Mrs. Johnson, Winnie, has done both, this summer. The unusual part of the per formance is that Winnie is 83. She played the Plattsmouth Country Club Course here with Casey last weekend, scored a neat 46 (women's par is 37) and gave some golfing advice to a willing group of women Monday at the Country Club. Mrs. Johnson wasn't parti cularly proud of the 46 score, though it is as good as most of the best local women golfers (and some of the not-so-good men) post here. She said the trip from California was rather tiring, though she didn't show it. Winnie says she plays golf every day at home. Her philoso phy about golf Is to stand right up to the ball without fear and give it a good whack.

She also told about her start in golf at Fremont where she lived before moving to the West. She started to learn the game and since there was no golf course there at the time she had to improvise. One of her improvisations was to hit small apples at a shed to learn the swing and follow-through. Soon the building looked speckled like a print dress, she said, and her husband had to paint it over. Mrs. Johnson has golfed some 50 years, once was Nebraska Women's Amateur champion. Some of the ladies Monday seemed amazed at Winnie's abil ity to hit a golf ball, even more so at the fact she drove all the way from California alone. This puzzled the lady. "You drive around town, don't you?" she asked. "Why not to or from California?" Last weekend when Mrs. Johnson played golf here, she didn't play alone. How did Mr. Casey, her golfing partner, do? He did better his aunt's score. By how much? Ask the secre tary of the Plattsmouth Coun try Club, Francis M. Casey. . Mrs. Harry Knabe paid a call on Mrs. Herbert Meisinger Monday morning.
