BOB RAWLINS

Including a golf tournament; the President's Reception on Saturday, and the Annual Banquet on Tuesday evening signaling the close of the convention.

Nearly 70 golfers turned out for the tournament, with Mack Pettit of Spartanburg, S.C. emerging as winner. The tournament was highlighted by the presentation of the Fred Daues Trophy named in honor of one of MCAA's most respected Past-Presidents who for many years had conducted the Association's golf tournaments. The trophy will be perpetuated in his name.

True to their promises at the last Executive Board meeting in Scottsdale, Ariz. "guaranteeing" good weather conditions for the Atlanta golf outing, tournament co-chairmen Allen Young and O.I.. Jollay outdid themselves by providing nearly perfect weather not only at the golf course but for the full six days of the convention. We don't know if they're "in" with the Chamber of Commerce or the Weather Bureau, but they sure have a connection someplace!
