San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-09-16


il takes about the same amount of en-
s7s durance and effort. You can play
every day for fifty years and on the
a, three hundred and fifty-sixth day of
~ the fiftieth year, you might play just
"a" as poorly as you did on the first day of
80. the first year. And the experts and
bis champions and those wi. golf COM
a2o plexes tell us that that is the charm Of
~ it. Golf is like dope or opium, you
10 can't practice it in small quantities
for little while and thu stop. You
Z have to keep on i'd on. and it will
80. finally get you. And it has gotten so
"a many. The golf fiends are the ones
~ that go around with sunburnt necks,
Z and far away looks, and break the
IA chandeliers practicing swings with an
'no umbrella, and talk only of the time
they made the third hole in three in
'"- spite of the water hazard, or how
40 much better they would have done if
no they had used the putter instead of
the mashie. And they wear knickers
sometimes, for they can look the part
."~ even if they can't play it.
. Golf is a splendid game for men. 1t
teaches them TO either control their
-. tempers, or completely lose them. To
. ~ control ones temper is a good thing,
but to lose it is better, that is if one
- loses it so completely that one never
gets it back to lose again.
Golf is a splendid game for women.
= q, It keeps them out of doors, and yet
~, makes them lose pounds and pounds;
>, something that can never be accom-
!, plished with Nah Jongg. And then it
10 gives them opportunity to look beautl-
30 fully careless, without looking shabby.
.rs Sport clothes these days are so soft
=. and clingy and charmingly ill-cut, that
-, they give the impression that one is
:, well dressed without half trying. There
!, are accordion pleated skirts that flow
- and ripple sails like in the wind, and
there are soft silk shirts, and soft wool
"a sweaters. and scrubby little n~t-heeled
shoes. This fall the sweaters are beau
tiful, Of warm colors, tan and browns,
and reds, with an occasional dull blue
or green. They are Of light wool and
- sortof fuzzy, and AZ worn without
~ belts. perfectly straight lines from
shoulder to ankle. There are so many
reasons like these that women should
play golf.
All Of the reasons are not as frivol-
S Gus as the above. Some women should
!, play just to keep up their excellent
games. Many San Antonio women do
- play well. Among those who play an
unusually good game are Mrs. Jack
Lapham, Mrs. Talbot La Prelle, Mrs.
Frank Lewis, Mrs. Bob Terrell, Miss
Eleanor Barclay, Ms. e. r. George,
Mrs. Sam Barclay, Mrs. Jedd Roe,
Mrs. Fred Maule, Mrs. John Bennett,
Mrs. W. B. Russ, Mrs. Raymond Kel-
Ter and Mrs B. G. Barnes,
The Texas Woman's Seventh An
