eoLF GOES on STAGE


Golf has gone into vaudeville. Box
ing, baseball and football have an
done big time.
However. not until recently did
golf make it's debut in "vodevil!'
A few years ago a golf act IN
vaudeville would have been ridiculed.
All of which merely shows the hold
the game is getting on the American
public.
The act is called "A Lesson in
Golf" 1t is presented by two pro-
fessional golfers.
While O spectator may not gain
any real gnowledke as to how to I'M
prove his game from the act 1t cer-
tainly win interest him.
1t is done in humorous as well
as serious vein. A number or the
stunts draw a big laugh. and when
shots he really intends to make II is
the cue for the audience to 'razz'
him through the medium OF the mer-
ry cha ha."
OF course in all vaudeville acts it
is most essential to have a Whlrl-
wind finish. In the Lesson in Col"
act the professional finishes by rap
idly driving a. number of golf balls
while blindfolded to the accompani-
ment of soft music.
Motion pictures are used to aid the
act and materially assist in putting
it over. First the real pictures OF
player are thrown on the screen as
he does the various golf stunts.
These pictures are then slowed up
and get many a laugh.
LANDS REGULAR GOLF FAN
Unquestionably golf is encroaching
on the popularity OF baseball.
Judge lands, who is commissioner
OF baseball, recently resigned from
| the federal bench in Chicago.
1t was generally supposed that the
| Judges real reason for knocking

Golf was the impelling reason why

| Judge. -,
His duties as Judge and baseball
commissioner, kept the judge so busy

was able to play only three rounds
