Johnny FARRELL should make
more money out of his open
championship title than any pro-
~ feSsional golfer ever to hold the
title with the exception of Walter
Hagen. The New Yorker is fine
Snowman. friendly and debonnair. He
plans playing in all of the important
championships of the Summer and also
will engage in numerous exhibition
matches.
While the Americans have dominated
the game since the war, it is an inter-
eSting fact that Farrell is only the
fourth rome-bred pro ever to hold the
championship in the 50 United States
open competitions.
Johnny McDermott and Walter Hagen
won it twice each and Sarazen once.
TaverS. Ouimet Evans and Jones have
won it for the amateurs, but 81 times
il has gone to stars born beyond the
waters.
AS Farrell troups about the country
the duffer will find little out of the
ordinary in his game. His tee shots
are of fistter trajectory than those hit
