Show Fun for the Whole Family a while they had golf reelinj FOR hanging on the ropes but witr the arrival of spring the old gamt has bounded back again. SoWiers, sailors, marines, airmen, duffers, dubs, the tired businessman, fnrlrrfl and UCiCJiav tv many others who make up oui aver-age society today are once more swinging away with the driver and brassie or keeping the niblick blazing hot. There was a spell when many thou-sands, who needed the exercise and the Grantland Bice recreation, were ashamed to be seen with a bag oi clubs. Today, in clubs that are close to transportation centers, there is a rush to play, an Increase even above last April. Clubs off the beaten track are Uk. tag s trimming. The others are doing extremely well. Which Is bet" ter for those able to get out once in a while than to sit brooding re-plete with alcoholic stimulation. It is surprising to know how many clubs, which can be reached without gasoline or rubber, are doing as well as they ever did. The Old Story Returns Unless the situation changes, we are quite likely to have again the old story of the "vanishing hus-band,' the old "sport of missing men." I know of no one who told thai story better than J. P. McEvoy did many years ago. It was to this effect "Who's that stranger, mother dear? Look! He knows us ain't he queer?" "Hush, my own, don't talk so wild, That's your father, dearest ' child." "That's my father? No such thing. Father died away last spring." "Father didn't die, you dub. Father Joined a golfing club." "Now the club is closed, so he Has no place to go, you see. No place left for him to roam, That is why he's coming home." "Kiss him he won't hurt you, child, All these golfing guys look wild." The Important Side The important part of golf isn' the tournament side. That happens to be only the window dressing. The part of the ancient game Is the hand-to-han- d grapple among some two million or three million average players, whose scores may range from 85 to 120. The 90 to the 110 player has alwayi been the stout backbone of the gams some dour Scot invented over 50C years ago. These pay most of the dues, keep most of the courses going and have most of the fun. Most of these to-day are middle-age- d or beyond middle- -age. Many of them range be-tween 70 and 90. There is a big class between 40 and 60. Golf as a "rich man's game" is out forever. This is th day of the municipal course. Then has been a sweeping trend in this direction and it will know a nefl boom when the war is over. From reports received from manj places around the bunkered map, il is surprising the amount of golf now played in so many localities. Especially over municipal course! that so often are easily reached. Durocher's Challenge "So the Cardinals and the Yankee! are going to fight it out again next fall," Leo Durocher said. "The Cardinals and the Yankees. No on else. And the Dodgers can't do any-thing about it. Well, I can't agree with that. The Dodgers will have s lot to say about it. And we'll it with saj high-cla- ss pitching and s flock of base hits. I think we hav every bit as good a chance to wir the National league pennant as th Cardinals have. Yes, they have the edge on us In speed. But we'll ge' just as good pitching and better hit ting. "I doubt also if there will be an) other club as 1 know there won't be another willing; to hustle more. We still remembei that ten-ga- lead we blew late law summer. That's something to re member and we haven't forgottei Dodger Pitching Strength Overlooking his busy squad, Duro cher saved the major portion of hi, eloquence for his pitching staff. "Last summer," he said, "Wyatt Higbe and Head together won 4! games. I honestly believe this sam bunch, through this new season, wil come close to 60 games. Wyatt an Higbe are normally win ners. And this time I think Heat will hang around that mark. Re member, e is only 23 years old Id say he is the most improve, young pitcher I've seen for years JUST? posites." maili "Most people are Heard abouUhTL been paying his tub? for a year?
