But they forgot that to play good
golf you have to hit the fairway
part Of the time and that playing
from the rough isn't easy.
And they also overlooked the fact
that Gene doesn't know much about
the rough. He never has gotten ac-
quainted with it, for he sticks to the
middle of the fairway too much.
So little Gene from Texas has
