OF Munroe who plays golf a. pro-
fession and IL stausticlan on the
side. That means on rainy days
he juggles figures and on torpid
days he massages any ball he
can steal off public golf links.
Out here they've got a little toy
course built for women and chill
dren first. Munroe can spank
that capsule around this links In
one stroke. He drives from the
first tea and the ball takes eight
bounces before settling in ninth
hole.
Always drives-off with putter;
and takes great delight In count
ing number Of pieces the ball
breaks into. That comes from
being statistIcian. You'd think
ii was clay pigeons.
