CONTROLLER--Fr. Francis Dreger, a fine golfer in his own right, pays close attention to the tean1's form during a practice. F ollow-through and concentration are the elements that make a good golfer. At Bonner, Fr. Dreger has the job of developing high calibre linksmen. Bon- ner has enjoyed a commendable record in the past, and hopes are high for the team this year. Last year the team's first taste of defeat came in the final round of a hard-fought play-off match with St. James. Hard work and a little luck may be the magic formula which will provide the thrust needed to bring the golf team right on target to the Masters Cup. FLIGHT READINESS-Bill Nee, top Friar on the Catholic League golf tour, executes a per- fect chip shot. Bill's accurate iron shots estab- lished his reputation and improved his score with each succeeding match.
