Hagen had just finished with a

medal play in the national open.
He gave a caddy SIS to carry a
chair out to Sarazen with this mes

take a rest, Gene. you're too old

Sarazen is sensitive. That made

California. When he got his
strength back he started touring
the country with Joe Kirkwood, The

the P. C. A. and allowed him to
qualify automatically because he
was a member of the Ryder cup

The tournament until he was paired
against Harry Cooper, a player he
never liked, in the second round.
He beat Cooper and the next day

Film Review
Crazy Poured OUer The Pope
In "Shepherd of the .SeUen
Hills" at the Vanderbilt

Pope Plus XI is kindly old pot
bellied soul who loves practically
everybody. Everybody but the
reds, it should be noted!) He loves
the sinners and the faithful and
Mussolini, And only recently he
openly made love to Adolf Hitler.
Now on the occasion of Holy Year
his publicity agents in the United
States (the Catholic Writer'S Guild)
have patched together a film to
prove that this LOVE is no fake,
that it can be shown for millions to
see that Plus really bids all come
unto his heart.
Science has elaborated with De-
votion" to give us this movie, just
as it has broadcast his Holiness S
anti-working class propaganda thru
out the world by short-wave. 1t is
all very Sticky performed with a
score of authentic Gregorian chants
to lull the audience into a state of
awe and veneration. Basil Ruysdell
supplies the heavy-handed verbal
opium for the film. However, he
finds it rather difficult at times to
explain away the Father Of Kings
and Princes special love for boy
scouts and soldiers, whom he is for
ever reviewing and blessing. In such
instances RuysdelPs comment runs
somewhat as follows: eve can well
imagine what His Holiness is think
ing as he watches these soldiers
marching by: May they forever
march in peace rather than war"
Still, armies keep growing and the
Pope keeps on blessing them. It's
a clever racket, you know, this bust.
ness of blessing armies and generals
and officers and Goerings and Mus.
solinis while piously mumbling about
the Lord, and peace on earth, etc
1t makes it so much easier when the
time for war comes, to tell the mass
es that said war is being fought for
the Lord and divine justice and
eventual peace, and to bestow a final
blessing on the whole mess. Any
way, the American commentator
never tires of repeating that zone
OF the Holy Fathers outstanding
qualities is his love of peace"
AS to the Pope himself, the star
of the film par excellence, it must
be recorded that he is a very poor
actor indeed his love for publicity
Notwithstanding. At times he ap-
pears very much annoyed by the
whole thing and gesticulates ner-
vously to his belly-crawling follow
ers. No wonder, for the old boy is
probably the most kissed individual
in the world. AS one very irreverent
spectator next to me remarked
"Never in my life have | seen so
much OSCILLATION (kissing) bestowed
on man with so little sex-appeal!'
All " y, here is a film that
spreads the "opium OF the people,
in a manner and on a scale never
imagined even by Marx himself, in
whose days there existed neither
short-wave radio transmitters nor
sound films.
Gregory the XV's Propaganda
University established in 1922 is still
going strong in Rome where a kindly
old pot-bellied soul loves everybody.
