n YEW YORK. July 1.-THE story
~ of Johnny Goodman. the new
VI trans Mississippi golf champ
4 ion, is so thoroughly Ameri.
can in its underlying spirit
and SO interesting as q human doCu-
ment that it is we'll worth the telling
Johnny is Is years old and until
his graduation last June he was
a senior in an Omaha high school
He was born and grew a s boy in the
packing house district Of Omaha His
parents were miserably poor. and died
when he was a lad
So at the age Of II Johnny
found himself the head of a family
of three younger sisters and two
Younger brothers. He found a tenn.
porary home for them and for him
self with another family whose pow
ertv was s great as their kindness
and he continued to attend school.
having desire to be educated.
Gets job as Caddy.
One day at the age Of y he
saw in company with several boys of
the district number of men playing
golf on the links of the Ohama Field
Club. The point Of vantage of the
observers was a box car standing on
tracks that skirted the course.
Johnny noticed that the golfers
were attended by boys who carried
the players implements and spotted
the balls. 1t struck him as rather a
worth while occupation and several
days later he applied for a job as a
caddie and got it.
Before the season ended he was as
siduously practicing with a broken
club. He kept on with his caddying
and practicing and in the meantime
entered high school. Then he was
forced to stay out year to earn
money for the support of his brothers
and sisters.
Finally the smaller children were
placed in an orphanage and the three
older ones were taken into private
families.
Johnny liked golf lot and with his
one club in the course of three years
he developed a fine swing, while as
caddie he picked up all sorts of val
liable points about the game.
TWO years ago. at the age Of Is. he
borrowed a set of clubs and entered
the Omaha City tournament. He
startled golfers of the city by winning
it handily.
Well-to.do golfing enthusiasts took
an interest in the boy, obtaining work
for him, which enabled him to con.
tinue at school. Last Summer he en-.
tered the transmississippi tourney at
st. Louis and lost only in the semi
finals. Eddie Held winning the title.
In addition he played himself into the
finals in the Nebraska State cham
pionship.

ARMED HIJACKERS
WORK In DAYLIGHT
Hold Up RozbqlJ Man and
Steal Auto and Booze

Providence. r. I.-July II "
Armed hijackers, working in broad
daylight here yesterday forming as
carly risers were on their way to
church, held up Morris j. Fine. OF
4s Devon street, Roxbusy, and stole
his big sedan and 100 gallons OF al
cohol he had just purchased.
He told police, who questioned
him for hours. that he drove to this
city at daybreak at the advice of
Joe Levinson, whom he met in Bos-
ten.
He said he was met 1t Olneyville
Square here by an italian who Dor
rowed his car and returned with it
and 100 gallons of alcohol in few
minutes.
Fine declared that he paid $3.50
for the alcohol, but had not gone far
with 1t when a car with four men
in 1t forced his machine to the curb
One OF the hijackers drew a revol-
yer and ordered Fine to the street.
Fine, as he shouted for felp. was
knocked down and kicked in the
face and body.
One of the four men took the
wheel Of Fne's car and she two ma
chimes raced away.
Fine sought police help. telling the
authorities first that his car. con-
tanning only a suitcase and some
shirts, had been stolen. Under ques-
tioning. however, he admitted the
alcohol transaction and its sequel.

Through the Static

Conditions on Saturday evening
were excellent, with the exception OF
heavy buzz that appeared early in
the evening and made reception
poor. The buzz was still going when
we signed off. Last night conditions
were excellent. There was good vol
ume. little buzz, little static and few
bloopers In fact, that latter were al
most quiet for some reason or other.
WRC, Washington, had one of its
two chances of the week 10 be heard
on Saturday night, since VITO was
silent. The southern station took ad-
vantage of the opportunity, giving
good volume. A program from New
York was being broadcast, Cass Ha-
gan's orchestra furnishing dance mu-
sic. One of the numbers was BLUE
Serenade." Just a little fading.
WEAF, WIZ and WOR offered
dance music. All three came through
fairly well. although WEAF was
hampered considerably by that buzz
we spoke of. WTAM, Cleveland. was
on the air with harmonica selections.
The instrument was we'll played and
we stayed to hear THE March of
The Tin Soldiers and the overture
from William Tell" You'd be sur
prised at the amount Of II usic that
can be blown from one of the in
struments.
The big jazz orchestras are trying
to play more than jazz dance music
these days. Some of the classics are
being arranged for their benefit and
through them for the edification of
the public. For instance, ever WGY
Saturday night we listened to New
York jazz band play thu Overture
1912" by Tschaikowsky. and very i'm
pressive 1t sounded. The same was
also heard over New York station
at the same time but we happened
to have hold OF WGY. At the close
OF the piece the announcer said:
You have just listened to the 1872
overture than which there is no
whicher. We hate to 60 back into
the modern dance. music, but hope
you'll like it." Then we turned the
dial.
WIZ offered a variety Of features
yesterday, among them the Mediter-
raneans in an early afternoon pro-
gram. Roxy and His Gang. with Mil
ton Cross giving his regular Sunday
afternoon weather report while in
Producing the Gang, South Ameri-
can tour. made even more pleasant
than usual by worth while musical
selections, and finally, the Philhar-
monte orchestra concert. A big day
for WIZ.

also loud, a church service being on
the air at o'clock. Over at WGY,
Schenectady. the Atwater Kent hour
was being broadcast. We didn't care
for the music, so we left.
WGBS, New York, was also on the
list OF visitors. The station came
through loud, unspoilei ty outside
Interference. A gentleman named
Samuel Salkowitz, who is pianist,
rendered an excellent program. Par
ticularly were we inter ,sted in the
way in which the piano was repro
duced. Loud, full and deep.
WABC. New York. offered another
of its novelty programs, "A Night at
Tony Pastors" 1t was certainly
amusing. there's no doubt about that.
The station was loud and We just sat
back and enjoyed every minute of
the program. Old time soLss by old
time actors brought baci: tie atmos-
phere of years. ago. The program
was realistically presented and as
the several acts passed in review the
announcer described a mean de-
scribe. A comedian. Spanish dan
Ger in naughty" osnce. THE
Three Tommies" in songs and a
croun NJ eerocfou4 cannlha1S from
the Fiji Islands, in an exhibition Of
Nar-whoops and spear-throwing,
included.
Although the program was being
presented in the studio, 1t sounded
for all the world as if it we're going
on In a theater. Everything worked
out so we'll that the illusion was
perfect.
That's all for today, thanks!
