It's always older golfers trying to ages, and it is quite ay fit to see young- sters, inning dottry their hand. ab We've got a sWell golf course, and what's more, we've got a capable Pio at the Club who likes young people and really wants them to take advantage of this outdoor sport. Bven our schools. might en- courage the students to “take a look in’, and like we used to do on certain days of the school year, we'd all go as one class to see how our local newspaper was rum, and we'd look over the work Ghatting ‘here and there with the Editors and operators. Well, looks to me like, we ought to encourage such days throughout the year and go out in to learn about golf. Marse Joe wouldn't mind setting aside a day now and then to have roundtable open forums on the game, pnewering pop up from hopefuls . ‘once anybody olf ball with even about the bed i always stay with ” in golf ‘les- |. him. In fact, any one will want 4o come ‘back another day and work harder than eyer to.develop himself in the art of playing golf. Marse Joe, the Pro, out at the Country--Club; will begin a-series on “Profiles Of A Pro’. This edlumn will deal specifi¢ally with how and how not.to play golf. And with our young people vis- iting with the Pro, from -time. to time, this will be’ just,’ ahother “tie in” they'll have, with this golumn. and with .the man. who will be writing it, © This grand weather. plus the God-given sun that surrdunds us all almost everyday of the year are two things we should be grateful for... . what's more, we ought to take advantage of them by getting out under the sun, building our bodies and de- veloping our love for a sport that more people play today than any other known to. man. I dare our young people to spend just one hour with the Pro. From there, you can have it. I do know this, that pnce you begin knowing something about. golf, you'll want to play everyday. And frankly, that’s about the only hold back’ I see in the game. It'll take a lot of your time if you let it. Reminds me of the parson who loved playing golf until one day somebody made the remark: son certainly shoots To which another Bill (Lt. Cmdr.) Dunn told me the other day that my sermon two Sundays ago was fine, but all during the hour he wanted to whisper in my ear, “Say, Parson, you missed a putt in + point, didn’t you?” G.
