Hangovers cost the nation one billion dollars annually Each habitual alcoholic costs his employer $550 every year. Therefore: Industrial leaders will confer to find out ways and means of doing something about him. The conference, first of its kind in the nation, is sponsored by the Chicago committee on alcoholism Dr. Anton J Carlson, university of is Chicago medical researcher, chairman. Dr. Carlson, who produced the economic cost figures on alcoholif m. said that "of the thousands of industrial firms in the country, there are possibly no more than 10 on record who have conducted extensive research on the subject of alcoholism in industry." James H. Oughton Jr., director of the Keeley ins(itute, Dwight, 111., added "Alcoholics are sick people. They suffer from a disease just as surely as does the diabetic, a person with cancer or tuberculosis. "They must not be confused with hopeless drunks and bums. This most certainly does not describe tne alcoholic. Not all those with an alcohol problem are hopeless.

There would be no golf if it were not for the duffer and the average golfer. The few left couldn't afford to keep the courses In condition. They couldn't keep the manufacturers going. And without the duffer and the average golfer, golf crowds would be under 500, and there would be no teachers and not many caddies. The stars would be playing for $300 not $10,000. Above all, we love and admire the flaming spirit of the duffer who each year is going to remove at least five or maybe 10 strokes from his cluding star professionals, for so many years. "What," I asked, "are the chief faults the duffers or the average players have? And what, by the way, is an average golfer?" "An average golfer," replied CiucI, "is one who shoots around 100. St n 4 ' That's a good average. Some are A around 90 or 92. Others well above 110. We can call It 100 and ke safe." "What is the most common fault?" .JTYS I asked. "Slicing," said Professor CiucI. "There are many hookers, of course, but many more slicers. Slicing is largely due to not turning the body enough, to taking the club back outside the line of flight and bringing it into the ball from the outside.
