1t seems that the late Lord Robert
Crawley was a golf fanatic from sunrise
TO sunset. Between those hours he did
not play, but was glad to discuss the
merits of the game, even with Lady
Robert Crawley, which only goes to show
what an enthusiast he was. He had a
pretty fair links right in the backyard
of mis- estate, so that he could fare forth
on the fairway and rough the rough
whenever he felt the tingle. This was
about all the time and, as he was not
always able to scrape up partner
among the neighboring dukes, bishops
and peasants. he often called upon his
buffers, Wallets or even his wine watch
man to play him a round until he had
his whole household so daft over the
game that a sunny thought struck him.
Why not have a cockneys contest? So
it came about that his lordship an
nounced there would be a golf tourna-
ment for all the servant members of the
household. There were to be two six
teens and prizes for winners and run
ners-up. But his lordship hated to lose
those two days of golf, so ne was finally
given permission to play in 1t by his
Hthu DulleT.
His lordship decided not to try for any
thing better than the second 16 and
thought he would be runner-up. 1t took
him week to decide what he wanted and
another week to find 1t after he decided
His wife always bought his clothes, but
Lord Crawley finally found very toppy
silk hat for his No. 8 head.
The tourney went fine. His lordshir
shystered the first Is much to the SYM
pathy of all the cockneys and he had nc
trouble in wading down to the finals be,
cause all but scullion boy defaulted
against him. He met his coachman fol
last honors.
The coachman gave the silk hat the
once over and decided that was what HI
wanted. 1t was such a toppy top hat
and besides, it was obviously a coach
mans dip. Also. "hexcuse my 'ackney

struggle to see which could lose the
match. His lordship was determined not
to lose the top hat after all his search
He topped beautifully, he sliced. his dubs
were magnificent, and he threw in a Sc
lection of whiffs only equaled by those of
his opponent. At the last tee it was all
square. 'Enry, the coachman, whitfield
eight times-all he dared-and then top

bounds and accidentally hit one. Both got
an inch from the hole in 81. 'Enry meant
to dub his ball but knocked 1t in. His
lordship missed, losing the deciding hole.

Enry, winner of the match, resigned
later for disappointment. "Ho whut a

of the greens, and every conceivable thing

Herb Newton pulled fine three out of

John Fox put his ball on his drive to
the 18th not more than two inches from

Gus had been. A little slip of the mem
ory, of course. The worst was that ne
had a hard putt to the new hole for a

Packey VS.. Mike

OF all ring masters who have worn the
gloves, in recent years at least, these two
have 1t in them to give the keenest exhi-
bition yet arranged. They are much of
the same type. Both have speed and both
have skill. Both have brains and both
have courage. No one has even seen
either qmt-though at odd moments both
have slackened their pace while playing

In 81, only one stroke over par. In fact,
he took the extra stroke on the sixth hole,
where he failed to get the green on his

card corrcsponded to that of the par OF
the course. II was different returning,
however. On the 11th hole Heron per-
formed in spectacular fashion. He took a

sailing among some tall trees, and IL was
necessary for him to play further out
down the hill TO the sixth fairway. He
tore into the third shot with all his am

sailing over the tops of the trees 10 the

Gibbons Should Win

Those who have seen both Mike and
Packey I'm various ring encounters against
other rivals-or would-be rivals-know the
excessive cleverness OF these two boxing
prima donnas to scramble things up
bit Packey has made almost every oppo-
nent he ever faced look foolish. Mike has
transformed most of his antagonists into
smian wonders They have outclassed
tho field We have seen Packey battle
when It looked to be a certainty that no
man could hit him. for II is hard to land
with solidness upon shadow or phan-
tom. We have seen Mike so elusive that
a sharpshooter at 10 PAGES couldn't hit
him with a shotgun.
Mike has never met a man as clever
as Paclkey. And you can gamble your roll
that Packey has never met as tough a
customer as Mike was and Is. And be-
tween the two Mike is the one who car
rles the best of It in the advance dope.
The Wherefores
Mike is about as clever as Packey-is a
harder hitter-and beyond all this, has
been bolstered up by more recent compe-
tition. The shadow stuff and the sparring
partner business are not more than con-
slderably different from the regulation
thing.
1t has been a long time since Packey
faced actual competition. 1t has been a
longer time since Packey met man of
his own weight. Gibbons has faced more
than one rugged customer since Packey
retired This will mean more than little
bit when they meet.
