Let Guest Columnist Johnny Farrel Tell of Golfing Thrills ( Hugh Bradley presents as his guest columnist 'this week Johnny Farrel, king of the fairways a decade back who continues on as one of our foremost golfers. One of the most popular of all the pro troupers, the Baltusrol hero tells of the trials and thrills that have come to him on his way down the tournament trail.) By JOHNNY FARREL t Hugh Bradley asked me his guest columnist this week, that made me smile. Because, Hugh, I know as much about pounding a typewriter as you do about pounding a golf ball. Speaking of smiling, though, a lot of people have asked me why I always seem to be smiling when I get in a tough spot out there on the fairways. Thats easy. Ever since I first started playing golf up in Westchester shortly before the war, Ive told myself to keep smiling. For I think thats the answer to golfing success. When youre cheerful and smiling you are relaxed and easy, your swing doesnt freeze and youre able to keep your club in a flowing groove. I can remember standing on the eighteenth green at Olympia Fields in Chicago in 1928. It was one of those typically hot midsummer days in the Midwest. In front of me was an eight-foBobby putt. Jones had just holed out for a birdie and, in order to win that WHEN ot play- le thirty-six-ho- for the National Open championship, I had to drop that Johnny Farrel There was a crowd of 10,000 enthusiasts jammed around the green. off eight-foote- r. golf-craz- ..vfr-v;,-- ed , Payoff Putt Is Easy When Youre Not Grim . P Everything hung on that putt. I wouldnt let myself think of what it meant to me. Do you know, Hugh, what I was thinking of? I remem- bered a story Id heard in the locker room the night before the one about the duffer who had a new caddie. Youve heard that how he kept telling his caddie to pick up those divots, and when they got .back to the clubhouse the caddie turned the duffers bag upside down and, looking very seriously, as grass chunks tumbled out, said, Here are your divots, boss, but what I want to know is what you are going to do with them? That made me laugh as I thought of it. I wasnt tight and grim, and so it was a simple matter to sink and win the Open that eight-footcrown. Everybody thinks that was my greatest golfing thrill. But it wasnt. There haye been a lot of them and disappointments, too. But. the biggest thrill of all but wait a moment, let me tell you of some of the higher moments. Playing in my first open at Inverness in 1920 it Was the ' first for Jones, Sarazen and Diegel, too. Ive been in every one since then, but Ive never felt the same thrill as when I walked up to that first tee at Toledo Qualifying in my first British Open at Troon in Scotland in 1922. That was the worst storm Ive ever played in, and the gales were howling around my head at about ninety miles an hour. Sarazen, who was National Open champion at the time; Long Jim Barnes and inimitable Harry Vardon all failed to make the grade in the teeth of those blustering winds. Those are only some of them. The greatest of all, though, was in winning the $5,000 first prize at La Gorce in Florida in the winter of 1928. I was way back going into that last round. I was the last man in and I knew what I had to get to win. And on that stiff par 72 course I turned in a 3 63, nine strokes under par, to take that prize the biggest in tournament history by a single stroke. er ... 30-3- University of Southern California, with Ken Carpenter, Olympic discus champion in best form, may be the Pacific coasts top football team this fall Sol Strauss, the eminent Twentieth Century fight club attorney, has only one complaint concerning his recent trip to England.
