The Washington times., 1921-02-17

A golfing feud of many months
standing has been on between Grim
and Bill Price, II having been agreed
long ago that they would settle 1t
with divots on the first warm day
Price lost by three drops of perspira-
ton and a busted thumb. Going out
they were even. but on the return
half Of the ticket, Grin let Bill down
with a 4 up score.
The match settled for all time the
goofing status for this section. Price,
as cellar champion, now has right
to challenge "Skeets" Watson, the
dubbiest dub who ever sliced drive.
KNOCKED ,EM DIZZY.
In the quartet--the name sounds in
viting but 1t doesn't mean anything
ICY" Cummings and the Old Fox
knocked 'em dizzy-that is, Price and
White. When interviewed today,
Price wasn't sure about the score.
but he thought it was about Cup
defeat for him and Robinson. Bits
only alibi was that he was working
under a handicap of 285 pounds In
weight, and Mr.. White blamed his
brilliant game on his new shoes. Re-
member, they were not playing foot
ball.
Possibly our all-star cast should
have been introduced in the opening
argument. Bill Price is heavy
weight writer for Washington
newspaper, but as a goofer. he is
strictly in the lightweight class.
His partner in chagrin, Mr.. White,
Is heavyweight barrister. Mr..
Griffith was once the manager OF a
baseball club. Now. however. he
only owns 1t. ICY" Cummings, VINO

so we'll have to call him a gentle
man farmer. He was once a repre-
sentative in the Maryland legisla-
ture-maybe twice, who knows-but
he probably doesn't care about read
his obituary yet.
REMARKS BRILLIANT.
Golflng is evidently largely a mat
ter Of walking and cussing.
In the latter respect, Mr.. Whites
remarks to the ball were at all
times brilliant. His rebuttals were
particularly scintillating A sailor
couldn't have said more While ad-
dressing his fellow players and
swinging away at the turf stimuli
taneously, he assumed stance
which would have done credit to any
orator, whether of the bar or the
bench. You can tell by his chatter
that White is a lawyer.
Bill. more out OF breath than after
ascending to the twelfth floor of the
Munsey Building on an elevator, ap-
peared on the green with three
legged stool. After every stroke he
painted the "Stein Song from the Birth
Of a Nation, The while he mopped his
manly brow. ICY" occupied the stool

This Cummings Is a southpaw. by
tho way, and he totes a powerful
driver. Getting away on the twelfth
he drove the ball over into Frederick
county. On another occasion he lofted
the ball over the center field fence
and the last seen of the pill huzzard
had II in its talons taking IL home to
the children.
,, The narrowing details as compiled
by Bill Price are set down here but
not guaranteed to cover ALL the
casualties, as you can't trust an Of
fetal scorer when he has lost the
match.
