year he is disappointed II he does not

ordinarily are around rs or SO.
Last spring he played a good deal

Dickey pccketnOok were so successful
that he bought himself . set Of matched
clubs with the spare change he won
from the time slicer. These matched
clubs seemed to do the business Tor

his fourth consecutive birdie. Just an
other example Of how some players like

Miller STEVENSON likes the fourteenth

Getting back 10 0ruver and DiCkey

along In friendly fashion now for two
or three years, Gruver discovered yseter-

and he decided 70 abandon the slice he
ordinarily plays and knock them
straight down the middle. Gruver and
DR.. Webb lnarveled as the man with
out q hook hooked ball after ball from
the tee or hit them perfectly straight
down the alley.
Dlckey decided after 0ruver had
taken Q on the fourth hole that
Gruver wasn't such a bad fellow after
all. But when Gruver got his fourth
birdie on the NTH hole. Dickey was
about ready to cut him OF his list. At
the fifteenth, Dickey announced he had
Gruver well under control, had decided
to put Gruver back on his list Of speak
ing acquaintance, and was having q
fine time telling the world what q me
chap Gruver was. But Gruver-2 down
and 2 to play--came back to win the
last two holes and Dickey decided that
the world is not such . nice place
after all.
Now Dickey thinks something ought
70 b done about that nth hole. ANY
hole q fellow can get four brides on
can't be o good test OF golf,e Dickey
asserts. And Gruver answers with the
contention that the hole Is good, but
the man who gets the brides must
also be good.
