The good things often come
last. This thought came as the
golf schedule for the next two
weeks was scanned.
Tournament golf in these
parts is nearing the windup for
1941, yet one of the season S
biggest treats awaits followers
of the ancient pastime.
It's the challenge match in
which Craig Wood and Byron
Nelson will oppose those two
mighty Texans-Ben Hogan and
Jimmy Demaret - at Detroit
Country Club, September % and
"a. Proceeds will go to the
United Chinese Relief, certainly
a worthy cause.
The match, as you've prob
ably heard, is a result of a chal-
lenge hurled at the golfing world
by Hogan and Demaret earlier
in the season, following heir
triumph in the Inverness Invita-
tional tournament.
They'd take on any two golf
ers, any place, for money or
