Immediately after their dismissal. Birnbaum and Ruhe announced they were going to appeal their case to VISTA chief Bill Crook in Washington, and were going to demand that they be given a full and fair hearing. Furthermore, they say they will insist that the charges against them be made more specific than "immaturity and irresponsibility...
...ever in the Open was the 276 shot by the magnificent "Wee Ice Mon," Ben Hogan, in 1948-14 strokes more than Gay Brewer took at Pensacola last week.

To prevent an open breach, the Dutch church depends strongly on the diplomatic skill of its hierarchy, headed by Bernard Jan Cardinal Alfrink of Utrecht. Although the bishops have publicly warned against excesses of reform, they have, in effect, tolerated the radical questioning of doctrine that is going on in The Netherlands, and have backed many priests whose views have got them...
