Naturally I was interested the other
day when l read that Speaker, in
order to brighten up his batting eye
and help his timing of the ball, was

ers are strong for golf. Jack Demp-
sey plays lot of it, although they
do say that Walter Hagen and Gene
Sarazen need have no fear of the
champion heavyweight grabbing any
of their titles.
Which merely proves that golf
more than any other sport numbers
among its dcvotees the shining
lights, the champions Of other sports.
