Speaking of statistics, the records
show that of every hundred golfers
who miss a twelve-inch putt:
Three say nothing at all
Four say nothing at the time but
say a plenty about the time they get
to the next tee.
Fifteen swear mildly with variations
but using well, I'll be d-di" as a
basic and initiatory phrase.
Ten do not swear but loudly shout
nasty things about rats and son-of-a-
guns and everything else they can
think of that closely resembles pro-
family but does not actually include it.
Five do not really say anything but
sputter and make a noise like a spin
wheel that won't spin-and conclude
the explosion by removing a six-inch
divot from near vicinity of the hole.
The other sixty-three say things
that would not do to print even in

In answer to a criticism in this col
umn to the effect that the Country
club caddies, as a whole this year
are far below bogey, President Strick-
land suggests that the disappointed
players pat their caddies on the back
and encourage them when they lose
ball. The average player, after go
ing eighteen holes with a youngster
who has no ideas as TO the location
of the ball, and after paying the boy
so cents for losing 81 worth of balls,
feels more like tapping the lad on
the pants than patting him on the
back. We've tried the encouragement
plan many, many tmes-and the next
day 1t was five lost balls instead of
four Possibly President Strickland
is more fortunate in his caddy assign
ment than the ordinary dub. AT any
rate the caddies are not watching the
balls. Nice boys and all that, to be
sure, but the eyesight is poor.
More than a hundred professional
and amateur golfers competing in the
western open tournament found the
Oakland Hills course SO difficult that
only twenty-eight finished the first Is
holes under so and only one par was
turned in. The numerous traps,
bunkers and natural hazards proved
too much for such golfers as Emmek
French and Bobby Cruikshank, who
turned in eighties. Mike Brady, Oak
land professional, hung up a par "
early in the day, and it was not until
Johnny Farrell, the Mamaroneck, N.
ished late in the afternoon that the
low score was threatened. The wood
ed elbow at the fifteenth proved dis
astrous to Jock Hutchison earlier in
the day and gave him a six foot hole.
Jock pulled into the trees, found
bad lie and took two to get back to
the fairway. Jock finished with 3S-
36-74. Seventy-four also was the to-
tai turned in by Chick Evans, the
only low amateur.
1t is apparent that the Topeka Ro-
tarians should cling to their favorite
sport-goIf. They have had little trou-
BILE in defeating Lawrence in the sweet
stick game but with a bat the To-
pekans are weak. Churchill Sargent,
a Shawnee star, also plays a long
game in baseball but when he tried
to stretch a S00-yard drive into a
hole he neglected to touch
the bases and Frank Griggs, usually
liberal in golf views, called Sargent
out thereby turning what might have
been victory into defeat. 1t never
putt when two easy puts will win the
hole.
Warren Bailey, another Shawnee
heavy hitter. is .robbing his golf time
to play amateur baseball. He says his
follow thru in golf has made him
stronger at the bat. This is an argu-
ment that has been advanced quite
strenuously in the big leagues in the
last few years.

Hills Country club, Detroit, has been a
