istic welfare" measures with
which the late, unlamented
84th Congress was deluged is
reminiscent of the heyday of
the New Deal, when the lib
erals" were Showering the tax
payers money on the forgot
ten man." OF course, in an
election year they were ultra
liberal. This Santa Claus era
in political expediency was
memorialized by a poem which,
with minor changes, is equally
appropriate to the current
domestic and foreign give
away" craze, as appears from
the following selected stanzas:
My father, poor misguided
gent.
Wasted his life, a life misspent
In working hard and working
late
To gather pieces of the eight.
Now father. meaning well, but
dumb,
Amassed a rather tidy sum,
With which he planned to buy
some beers
To brighten his remaining
years.
Then came the New Deal;
simple Dad,
Who worked so hard for all he
had,
Woke one morn to find that he
Was now a public enemy,
A louise. a scrooge, the Nations
cyst,
An Economic Royalist.
So Dad, industrious, but dumb,
Is now the source from which
will come
The coin to buy gasoline
For some poor underdog's
machine,
To bring the more abundant
life
To every loafer and his wife.
Poor Dad, a faithful, trustful
COON,
Was born bout thirty years
too soon.
A moral turks along the hall
In all this fancy folderol,
And it is this: That any cheat
Who says you ought to work
to eat
Is simply nuts-just out Of his
head.
Sit on the rail or stay in bed,
The Government will see. by
CAD.
That you get yours from
chumps like Dad.
Old ReactiOnary.

The second nine was another

struggle with Columbian Denton
deciding that he, too. should play
par golf for the clubs honor and
the dollar involved. This one
ended with Shannon and Denton|
two up and with Kaye and part
ner struggling to prove that night
workers never die no matter how
exhausted they may get at golf.
On the whole, it was the Shan
non 73 that took the dollar, if not
the heart out of the brave but
physically battered other team.
On the hole where he slipped over
par. fifteen, the revitalized Den
ton sank a putt that would have
shattered Ben Hogan. Kaye.

Before a golf match when he
still is feeling frivolous, it pos
sible to ask Danny {. question a
woman named Kay insisted We
put to him.
Why" we said, don't you do
a spot of Italian in your dialect
stretches on the stage at Carter
Barron?"
II do" Danny said. "Most OF
the time. 1t just happens that ,
haven't been doing so lately.
Have her come tonight and I'll
sing her an aria from 'Tosca. ."
When he left Columbia, which
he thinks one of the most beau
tiful courses he ever played, at
5:38, he did not look as if he
would be able to sing a note. But
he did. million of them, or sew
eral hundred. With a show to do,
he is the kind of golfer who does
not stay wilted.
Evening star., 1956-08-27

The difference was that the
other three did not have a show
to do that night. Their days
were over on the 18th green, and
they could be as glad for that
as they were sorry Danny had
to work.
The Drama Departments
They need not have been sorry.
The drama departments spy at
the amphitheater that night re-
ports: II never saw anything
like it. The guy was as fresh
as the morning. I knew he had
played golf. and that he does
not get enough chance to play
golf to be in top shape. But
when he finished the act that
night was more tired from
laughing than he was from max
ing me laugh"
Danny Kaye, golfer, is a differ
ent chap from Danny Kaye, COM
edian. He is as much of stylist
at the former as the latter. He
is good companion and a highly
useful partner on a golf course
but anyone who expects him to
be q wit and a clown during a
round does not understand
Danny.
Danny is golfer and q golf
er's golfer. He probably is the
only companion this correspond
ent ever played with who never
told or made a joke the entire 18
holes. For this he will be remem-
bered-if the others are listening
and most vividly the next time
some fellow player starts telling
joke that is older than both of
us. Which most golfers jokes
are.
This respect for, and concen-
tration upon, the game does not
make Danny an unsociable part
ner. He is not a death -wisher,
or even a brooder, when things
go wrong. which they do often
enough to make golf the damned
est of all games. Nor does he re-
gard his good shots, which most
Of them are. as meaning that he
has escaped the treachery that
lies in the next one.
y
This is an attitude that pays
of. or nearly paid off at Colum-
bia. That it did not quite do so
is not the fault of Reds Banni-
gan, the sorcerer who makes the
matches out there.
Reds. after studying Danny's
smooth swing. decided that he
and this correspondent should
play the Messrs. Shannon and
Denton. with three a side on our
ball, more unreliable and rusty
than usual this year. Mr.. Shan
non, a former Columbia cham
pion and Mr.. Denton whose
handicap at that club is eight,
would seem to have won the
match before the first ball was
hit.
Only "seem." however. To the
endless astonishment of every
one whose matches he has ever
made. Reds knows something.
probably from a corpulent lepre-
chaun who sits on a limb in the
tree above the Bannigan table.
Once again. he knew enough to
have a good match out of what
appeared to be a shambles.
Danny. whose screamer of
the first tee was the fourSome'S
longest drive, pared the first
hole with a four, put his team
one up with a birdie on the
second and there it remained
until the seventh which Mr..
Shannon. playing even par all
the way. won for the other side.
The eighth was halved in par
threes for everybody. 1t was on
