know who Is the best golfer at the
Capitol, but I'll bet Pinehurst will
take a chance on a team picked
| from the Senators and Representa-
tives which ran down there from
Washington and spent the holidays
among the pines and sand hills.
There was only one member of the
party who couldn't step or his
eighteen holes around s0-bad for a
PRO-" but tip top for such a busy
man as Senator-or better. Sena-
tor Harding. of Ohio. was not in
the class with the rest. being in the
100 brigade as a golfer, but he made
two brides and was taking hold
with a zest which bespoke aptitude.
