4 ‘. for Honors at Travers 38s EVENING WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1908. LATEST REPORTS AND TIMELY COMMENT YOU DONT HEAR OF PROFESSIONALS. IN THE GOLF GAME But They Are There Just the Same and Do More to Keep Up In- terest Than Anyone Else in the Game. Fred McLeod wins the professional golf championship at Myopia Hinks, Somebody else is second and somebody else is third. That's about all you hear about the professionals in the golf game. Fred McLeod's name is used because he is the champion of the} professionals. If he were champion of the amateurs his name would he used in letters just twice as large. But that's the golf game. It’s the amateur that gets all the honor, while the experts—the professionals who work year in and year out to help out the game—are never heard of, ‘This year the championship was at | links once or twice In a season, and then Myopia, and Fred Mcleod, of Midlothl- | only for a brief period, an, won !t, only to be beaten + BY IT MAKES THE GAME, open tournament at Van Courtlandt yy, inks by Gilbert Niikells, of Tedesco game, Ue Pat abes, foal mele a Few realize just what a figure the! tacks way do ao many men fay? soit? professional golfer cuts in the 64M* Tt's because the professional a ah Not even the star members of the thou-| of the links makes them lke It ands of clubs scattered throughout the the professional who says "Mr, Gra: country do; for, in the first place, the eae een at professional |s only looked upon as the|that you can't make the round in 4," | 4 man to show tho beginners how to play, | Then the member tries to beat the pro.) / how to make the course In the fewest, That's one phase of the professional peat? strokes and how te help out end of the game, The professional of veterans when they get into the the sport {3 willing t otake a chance Lah spots *to encourage a new member, a man MUGH EXPECTEL OF “PRO.” who has never held a golf stick in his He is expected to tell the veterans how hands before, a youngster—one of those 3 play the course as he would play it, fresh ones just out of college, who fa expected to tell the youngster | thinks he can clean up anything on the Be @ beat way to play the fina ho Unks—the lttiewt son of the youngest i ol member, or the veteran who thinke the ninth hoje, the “punch bowl, knows ‘an all the profes Be Irs!
