up and told him how Glenna had

Miss Wethered in So in the after

in cards Of IS and 70.
Mr.. Jones palpably was startled
"Goshi" he remarked, I'D hate
TO be playing either Of them!"
Which reminded me that once
upon a time Mr.. Jones himself had
shot some hot golf on that same
great old course at st. Andrews.
So I looked up the card 1 had kept
Of his first round in the British
open Of 1927. the only round in all
his dozen national open compett-
tons In which he broke 10. And I
found a good deal OF interest IN n
comparison Of Bobby's card and the
cards OF the two girls who had
played the greatest match by wo-
men in the history Of the game,
over the same course.
Bobby's card was IS. Glenna's
best card. IN the morning. was IS.
