Golf and the Presidency

IF, LIKE MOST AMERICANS, you arc giving some
study to Warren c. Hardins's prospects in the
the presidency line the game of golf he plays may
help you.
Harding is much better golf player than Wood
row Wilson was a. most any Warrington caddy will
tell you in fact, he plays pretty fair game That
doesn't help you any, of course for the best player in
the world might find himself in the rough all the way
If he took up the presidency rs pastme. But this
will help you: Harding plays the same sort Of game
on Tuesday that he does Monday and the sort
on Saturday that he plays the other days of the
week.
He has certain strong points. He usually gets away
with long. straight drive. If that lands him in spot
from which average good approach shot will en-
able him to reach the green. the next shot will find his
practically the to dstance-should have been
longer shorter in order avoid trouble, Harding
will find himself in trouble. His chances Of getting
out of trouble effectively about $3.50 II bit of
brilliant daring is required he will be lacking In
stead he 10 apt to lift the ball out with mashie
shot to q safer spot and lose the extra stroke.

has hit one Of the trees and dropped back into the
