Modern Golf

The Masters tournament Of 1912
highlighted the near perfection of
of modern golf. At the halfway mark
of SO holes Ben Hogan was eight
strokes behind Byron Nelson. In the
old days a man that far off the
pace settled for "also-ran money"
But not diminutive Ben. He burned
up the stretch with phenomenal golf
to wind up in tie with Nelson at
280-eight strokes better than par.
The two men went into the play
of, one Of the greatest nerve shat
terers In sport. Usually athletes in
play-offs are expected to crack a
bit, to yield to the overwhelming
pressure. They tighten up. But Mel
son and Hogan reversed the usual
form. They played the toughest
course in the United States in beau
tiful totals. Hogan scored q two
under-par 10. Nelson fred a So to
win the title.
This doesn't mean that Hogan and
Nelson were necessarily superior
to the golfers of score Of years
ago. Today's scores were impossible
20 years ago. The modern golfer
benefits from the many improve
ments that help produce low scores.
These advantages include steel
shafted clubs, a longer ball, the
dynamiter and infinitely better fair
ways and green's.
The dynamiter-or blaster-saves
the average professional players a
few strokes on nearly every round.
Good golfers have lost their fear Of
traps. They lay the ball near the pin
from almost any kind Of a trapped
lie.

One Difference

The old timers putted on hard,
unwatered greens. Their speed was
no more constant than New Eng
land weather. Pathways, after a dry
spell, were baked to q hard, rough
surface. Today's golfer plays on
well-watered, soft greens. Pathways
are well kept and smooth. The rough
is controlled.

popular in this country would sheer

ers - and the schools did the
rest.
The pre- flight courses are

service and also preparing boys

watching the Detroit venture
with interest. Last year, CAA
sponsored experimental flight
courses in % high schools in
various sections of the country
and found striking evidence"
that high school students learn
ed TO fly as readily as college
students - and had even bet
ter safety records.
Some officials are advocating
that surplus planes left over
from current military require
ments be used for training high
school students. High school ele-
mentary courses in flying would
be helpful when they reach the
Taft age as basis for assign
ing them to the air service.
