Little Slowed Him.

IOW ABOUT lIlOSe lost lWo louiiuo'
when he shot up from So to
76?" we asked the little Co.
lumbia golf professor.
You know, don't like alibis, and
I don't have to make any for this
chap" Freddie said But Henry went
out on the third round without sand
wedge, and in that round he also was
playing with the sloweSt man in the
field-Lawson Little. Not that Lawson
has to play fast for my money, If he
wants to go along slow, but did
notice that many times Henry had to
fool around and wait long time for
Lawson to make his shots. And l
don't think it helped Picard at all"
Well how about the time he failed
to qualify for the national open at
Manor. back in 1882" vas qulzzed
Freddie.
He was a good golfer then Fred
said. But he is great one now.
These kids come along fast. as you
know, and Picard is a far better
player now than he was then. That
was before he had won anything big
and before he had established his con-
f1dence by licking the best OF em.
Now he has all the shots plus that
Sarazen confidence" In that Manor
tourney of 1888 Picard failed to
qualify for the national with scores of
74-77-151. But any one who hits
'em a little off the line on that first
nine at Manor. can get in SO much
trouble he can't break 40" Fred add
ed. That is Just what Picard did for
after a good first round of "A he took
40 for the out nine in the afternoon.
Oakmont Made for Him.
"VYyIIIL he go we'll at Oakmont, "
w We put up to Freddie. Il
think he will" the Columbia
pro said, land of the younger group
think he will be possibly the best Of
them all You know Henry is more
than feet tall, and he hits the ball
a very long way. But also he hits 1t
very straight for such long hitter.
and straightness is what is needed at
Oakmont Those furrowed bunkers
play no favorites"
Can he putt those keen greens?"
We asked.
We'll, it seemed to me that those
greens at Augusta we're Just about as
keen as they will be at Oaknont."
Fred answered. And in addition they
had a lot more slopes and rolls than
there are at Oakmont. And Picard
got around in 81 and 68. You can't
putt badly if you are doing scores like
that"
So there you have the Judgment of
q man who really knows golf on
guy who has demonstrated that he
can play the game. Who knows that
Freddie's words are not prophetic of
what will happen up there near Pitts
burgh. come the 9th of June and a
new national open champion?
