Saturday Third Hottest
Day of¥ear at 91 Degrees
It was hot Saturday, anyone will
grant you, but the record books will
dispute any claims that Saturday was
1939's hottest day to date. In fact Sat-
urday was only the third hottest day of
1939, so far. Two days in May, remem-
ber way back then, found the mer-
cury boiling up beyond the 91 degree
temperature recorded Saturday. For
instance, on May 144 the thermom-
eter registered a sizzling 94 degrees
while on May 154 it was a searing 92.
So now maybe Saturday's 91 doesn't
sound so hot, or does it?

All it takes is aim and a solid swing.
The dull smack of a golf club against
a round white ball, sending it soaring
down the fairway toward a fresh green
mound and a tiny black hole, has
provided sporting music to the ears of
three times as many recreation seek-
ers in this community as that small,
far-sighted and energetic group of men
who planned the Shelton-Bayshore
golf course predicted a year ago. The
success of Shelton's newest athletic
and recreational enterprise has been
little short of phenomenal and where
it was thought to be a gamble just a
short year ago, it is now on a solid op-
erating basis far exceeding the most
optimistic outlooks of its original back-
ers. Started as a Chamber of Co~
merce function, work to develop the
course was climaxed in ceremonies a
year ago when the Shelton mayor cut
a ribbon and opened the fairways and
greens to the public. Since that time
the successes marking the progress of
interest in golfing have been monu-
mental.
