Abstract: A golf accessory for dispensing golf balls and tees is constructed of a hollow preferably transparent tube of about 44" in length. Golf balls are maintained in the tube and are biased by a spring which extends from the top to the bottom of the hollow space within the tube when the tube is empty. Ingress and egress of golf balls occur towards the top of the tube on the sides where there is provided an expandable opening with an opposed opening, which may also be expandable, to urge golf balls into and out of the hollow of the tube. The hollow tube may hold up to a dozen golf balls. The top of the tube provides a container for tees, being outfitted with a removable plastic cap. The golfing accessory is to be used with and inserted into a typical golf bag much in the same fashion that a golf club is inserted and removed from the golf bag.
Abstract: A bicycle trainer has a horizontal frame. Pivotal hub capturing supports are attached to the frame. A bicycle wheel hub is situated between the supports where opposed hub capturing strucuture attaches to the hub and holds the wheel secure and upright. At least one of the supports has a quick release for capturing. The quick release has a piston with a socket for fitting around the hub. The socket on the piston is urged towards the hub by a spring biased cam having a lever attached thereto. The structure supporting the rear wheel of a bicycle may be used to support the front of the bicycle. The rear and front wheel portions may be connnected by a telescoping arrangement to allow for different lengths in bicycles. The rear tire rests upon and is in frictional engagement with a roller attached to the frame. The roller is tensionable by way of a brake actuated with an easily accessible push-pull cable.

Abstract: A game simulating professional football is disclosed. An offense team chooses a play card. A defense team attempts to guess which play the offense has chosen. The degree of success in this attempt is assessed. The degree of success together with a random number obtained by a selector are both used to locate the play result from various probability result charts. The results are based on real events analogous to the degree of success the defense has in guessing what the offense will do.
