This is the sixth time the golfers of

Each golfer that falls to win the con-

he would have won. And there seems to
be some ground for his argument. Only,
unfortunately. many players do not have
their sunniest golhng days when there is
tournament about.

Not the least Of the intrlcacies of golf
is the phraseology of the game. Many
feel that they would be better players II
they could master the lingo. The follow
ing A B C primer may be of help;
