The prin- cipal figures were Montague, Babe Ruth, Babe Didrikson and Mrs. Sylvia Annenberg, a fair amateur player. ‘ Though you might never have heard of Montague, he was the main attraction on that memor- lable day.

Roundup By Gayle Talbot jit to Barnum. For more than a year the nation’s sports fans had been intrigued by stories from the West about a fabulous figure who could drive a golf ball farther than any man living, and who shot 6ls and 62s over regulation courses. Some of the more fanciful tales about the immensely powerful man who had appeared out of nowhere jto stun Western witnesses declared he could shoot a presentable score with a rake and & hoe. George von Elm, a former national cham- pion, called Montague the world’s greatest. In the midst of the hullabaloo about the dimpled “mystery man,” he had been collared by the law and brought to Elizabethtown, N. Y¥., to face a seven-year-old charge of armed robbery of a roadhouse. They said he had. been known fot ape there under another name, was acquitted by a after a trial which pa billing. later, Montague consented to make jee Public golfing debut in this charity match.

Their only bad oversight was in not surrounding the entire course with about a regiment of cavalry. ‘An hour before the foursome was flooding in from all points of the jcompass. By the time Montague actually hauled off and hit one, the immense crowd was packed solidly from tee to green on the! first hole and was still coming. Well, they had provided only | about half a dozen marshals, and they had no ropes. Most of those in the crowd, fresh from the Bronx and Brooklyn, didn’t seem td know’ what the fairway was for. They only knew. whom they wanted to see. Within three holes the fa- mous foursome was driving over the heads of the milling mob. Aft- er nine boisterous holes they gave up entirely. It was estimated—we thought!7: conservatively—that 12,000 persons tried to watch the match, Few of them saw anything.
