CHAPTER XVI

CHAPTER XVI
Why golf should be called the
gentleman's game is like the price
| of Persian rugs-beyond me. AS it
seems to yours reproachfully, it's
| one branch of sport that can make
any bird forget he's a gentleman. To
hear most golfers talk you'd think
| they graduated from pushing reins
back of mules or some such job
where speech is free and u~nconfined.
During a brief tarry at San Fran
cisco Nanny Hatton and V. Morgan
Brewster had coaxed me out to a
| swell country club for a round of
the Scotch stuff. l was a bit BASH
full. 1 play golf like a checker
champion and l was afraid of the
language 1 might have 10 turn loose
on the refined landscape.
L wondered if Nanny had a dag
ger up his sleeve. Since the Ruby
| St. Revere episode and Buck Horns
realistic im~personation of a terror
of the plains, the second baseman
had kinda steered clear of Simp
| Simpson and Edgar Adam North.
He was a great kidder, when he
knew when enough was plenty and
running over the edges of the dish.
Brewster's face was rather pale
and set, and / asked him If he was
feeling all right-just a careless re-
mark.
"Oh. I'm perfectly well physical
ly," he says, quickly. But mental
ly I'm unstrung. There was an
other of those fiendish Raspberry
messages this morning and"
"Is that dirty hound still on you?"
I yodel.
Funny he keeps under cover so
well. and yet has such good rack of
all your moves" utters Nanny. Il
don't know why We fail to catch
him at it, with everybody looking
for the sneak"
.Oh, he'll be caught" Brewster
promises. "If it is a he," he adds.
IF it is" Nanny Hatton stops.
What are you driving at. Val?"
"Nothingl Nothing at all, Nanny.
Please forget l said 1t. l didn't
mean that at ALL"
Brewster had spoken nervously.
There must be a m mixed up
in the mess. and only one woman
could count for much as far as v.
Morgan was concerned.
Our golf was not very good that
morning. Never brilliant on green
or fairway, l out-dubbed myself. My
playing was almost as horrible as
lily 1dA6dd6Cs
were away off form, too. and our
combined efforts doubtless would
have caused Walter Hagen or Jim
Barnes to sit down OF some conven-
lent mat and burst into tears.
If Nanny Hatton had intended TO
pull some bright gag on me Brew
ster's trouble must have knocked 1t
outa his skull. We romped around
that old course as merry and gay as
a coupla undertakers setting out on
a new job. AT the end of eighteen
holes, thirteen bunkers and a thou
sand strokes or more. l was willing
to cancel golf for the remainder of
the summer.
We lunched at the club, and had
just sponged off the ice cream when
a flock of fair young things dubbed
into the place. One OF the party
got a slant at our table and came
jaunting over in high.
All of us recognized her. You
couldn't forget a girl with Lois
Chambers lineup Of looks in a mil
lion years, and she was batting 1000
as she now flashed upon us.
"Why, l never thought to see you
at the club." she cries. her eyes
shining on ". Morgan Brewster.
How do you do. Val
