-The idea of letter golf is to change one word to another and do it in par, a given nim- ber of strokes. Thus to change COW TO HEN: in three strokes, COW, HOW, HEW. HEN.
2-You can change only one Jetter at a time.
3-You must have a complete word, of common usage, for cach jump. Slang words and abbreviations don't count.
4-The order of letters can- not be changed.
One solation is printed on another page of this issue.
A sailor on board the Yauminti Ferry, Man Sun, reports that a Chi- nos jumped into the harbour off tle Yaunati Breakwater shortly after the clock on Friday night. A search was made for the man but ho traces of him were found."
