$6,933 and it is a rare event when
he does not walk up to the paymaster
for q good share of the swag.
Cooper not only Is a menace to the
pars Of the country but also to dub

Cooper's performance at st. Paul it
takes q strong-minded man to resist
the impulse to throw his clubs into
the nearest ditch.
But opinions Of the pars and dubs
won't affect Cooper in the least.
He'll keep right on digging dollars out
of the fairways and some one Of these
years he is going to a national open
in the right mood and then we may
see a new record made for that cham
pionship.
The man has everything needed
in golf and he also has larceny in his
