Father Fox's Pennyrhymes by Clyde and Wendy Watson. 56 pages. Thomas Y. Crowell. $4.50. A clever, cheerful, jazzy Vermont general store of a book. Foxes, rabbits and such go sashaying around in galluses, corncobs and calico, all presented in comic-strip scenes, sight gags and family gatherings.

Perry and Hamill are simply swallowed...

On the first hole, he bounced in an eagle, then birdied the second, third, fourth, fifth, eighth and ninth holes to turn the first nine in 29. He finished with an incredible 61, eleven strokes under par. Recalls Claudia: "That was the first time I'd ever seen anybody play golf. You know, I thought that was the way you were supposed to play." So she felt consolations were in order...
