Graham Made
Bloomfield Pro
BY NJ. F. DRUKENBRoD

Bill Graham is the new head
golf pro at Bloomfield Hills
Country Club. He was appointed
today, succeeding the late Fred
Lamb, whose assistant he had
been for ID years at this club.
Graham, who is 81 years old,
was born in Ellie, Scotland, near
famous St Andrews. Lamb also
hailed from Ellie. a fact which was
responsible for Graham
lining up with Lamb almost inn
on arriving in this
country.
The Graham home bordered the
golf course in Ellie. AS a result,
Bill began playing golf as soon as
he was big enough TO swing a
club. He has been connected with
the game ever since.
Althoug he has won none Of
the major championships here.
Graham has a sound game, one
that should become even better
with more opportunities 10 prac-
tice. Other pros frequently have
praised his smooth swing.
A capable worker who always
has stuck close to his job. Bill is
well-liked by Bloomfield members
and his appointment to the new
post was expected.
