 Budapest, Hungary, Aug. si--- (UP)-The year of 1886 has been c hreathless one for Malcolm Good. willie, the weather-be little Scotchman from St. Andrews wht has been teaching golf to Hungar' ians for 26 years.
 First 1t brought the Prince oi Wales, now King Edward VIII. an6 then on ex-king, Alfonso of Spain and finally Bobby Jones. Talk Ave minutes to Malcolm on the club. house veranda wit hthe city and the peaceful Danube stretched out below you, and you know that the kings ("and they both are grand men, lad- die") captured only part of his heart: Bobby oil of 1t.
 Malcolm just couldn't believe it when he heard that Jones--the Jones his native town, St. Andrews, adored, the Jones he always dreai11- cd of seeing play, the Jones who was the greatest golfer in the world was coming to Budapest. After all. why should Bobby come tc Budajestp
 Golf had never made much prog. resS in Hungary: there were only two courses in the entire country And the little course on Buda's Hillf had c membership of only c hand full; Q few Americans from the lega. ton and A dozen more EnglishmeYI and some fifty HungarianH. It wal very inaccessible. No other great golfer had ever paid 1t c visit.
 "But he did come" Malcolm sait as we walked to the first tee for oui game. "And I was there to meet him. have never met him but knew I'd know him by his clubs But no one got of the train witt clubs. I was sick with disappoint' ment. Then I saw . man who looked like an American 50 went up tt him and said: Pardon me, sir, bu' did Bobby Jones the great golfei come on the train with you?"
 "Ho turned to me and said in { quiet voice:
 "Ie turned to me and said fin [ quiet voice:
 "'I'm Bobby Jones'
 q introduced myself and asked if I might help him to his hotel l didn't ask him if ho wanted tt play golf. for who, was II to asl the greatest of them all to havl Q round on our humble little coursei But, just as l waS leaving, he said Malcolm, I wonder If you have ar old set of clubs you could leiit meq'"
 "You can very well have oil we've got" I told him.
 "so he came up for c game. Mar I've never been 50 excited. Ever my little boy could see how rlervoui h was, what with playing witf Bobby and having every member oi the club following Us and just De. fore we started out he whispered to mo in Hungarian: Don't Do scar. cd daddy. Just play your regular game and you'll Do oil right"
 Here Malcoim's excitement iil thC telling of his match with Jones ai. most overcanie him. Scotch Ai1t Hungarian cascaded from his lips al he told mo every single stroke fs1ad( by Bobby. We were only on th( second hole but no insisted on cut. ting across to tho long seventh and pointing out h0 exact spot where Jones made, in his opinion the finest golf shot of oil time. ThC seventh is c long par i've and foi c hundred yards in front of the teC there is nothing but c wild tumble of stones. weeds and tough grass Jones, it seems, topped his drive aiit 1t fell in c cluster of rocks aiie bushes.
 "11l never forget him walking lir to it," Malcolm explained. "Ht stood looking ct the bell c moment scratching his head and pushing hil cap back and forth. Then nc puilec c brassie out of his bag, took oi1t moro quick look and banged tha' bloody bail 226 meters straight tiT the hill. near died. ThereTl nevei be another like him."
 Bobbys visit did more than pro- vide Malcolm with the thrill Of { lifetime--it qtiiCkened the pulse Oi goIf In Budapest. Since his visit the practice tee and putting greer has been crowded with earnes young Hungarians attempting tt learn the syrupy swing and effort less touch of the AtIantafl. Aflt Malcolm has given more lesscli since Bobbys exhibition than ht did in ell of last year.
