Jimmie Crabb. the popular and
genial professional of the Congress
Sional Country Club. has found anew
sway to stop golf ball pitched to a
putting green. Jimmie evolved the
new scheme at the expense Of Peter
jackson, the Indian Spring pro last
Monday.
1t came about in this fashion. Jim
..mie hooked his tee shot at the short
ninth at Indian Spring to the face
-of bunker. Jackson, his partner
against A. B. Thorn and Bob Barnett,
laid his second shot within feet of
the hole. Jimmie waded into the
Crap with his trusty niblick in hand,
took a swipe at the ball and knocked
H4a mile or so in the air. 1t came
down straight, struck Jackson's ball
into trap and stopped in the exact
x1pct where Jackson's ball had rested
minnie sank the putt for par and
wen the hole.
