WHEN THE PAPER DOESN'T
COME
My father says the paper he reads ain't
i nut lit) rierht
X J. "
He finds a lot of fault, he does, perusin'
it all night.
He says there ain't a single thing in it
worth while to read,
And that it doesn't print the kind of
stuff the people need.
He tosses it aside and says it's strictly
on the bum
But you ought to hear him holler when
the paper doesn't come!
He reads about the weddin 's and he
snorts like all git out;
He reads the social doin's with a most
derisive shout.
He says they make the papers for the
women folks alone.
He'll read about the parties and he'll
fume and fret and groan;
He says of information it don't con
tain a crumb
But you ought to hear him holler when
the paper doesn't come!
He's always first to grab it and he reads
it plumb clean through,
He doesn't miss an item or a want ad
that is true,
He says they don't know what we want,
the durn newspaper guys,
I'm gain' to take a day sometime an'
go and put 'em wise;
Sometimes it seems as though they must
be deaf, some blind and dumb
But you ought to hear him holler when
the paper doesn't come!
Moore County Neivs.
the final one-day tournament of the sea
son, which was played over the. Stanton
Heights golf course, under the auspices
of the Western Pennsylvania Golf asso
ciation. He was the winner, turning in
the best gross score.
"He is the greatest putter in the
world," remarked Walter J. Travis, one
of the leading golf authorities in this
country and a former titleholder who has
the distinction of being the only Ameri
can to win the British amateur champion
ship. This statement was made after
watching "Chick" Fownes at several
rounds of golf. He marveled at his
being able to play with the great handi
cap he suffers from. "His playing is
marvelous and I do not see how he is
capable of the golf that he is."
Not alone is Chick Fownes a great
putter, but he is a splendid driver, and
gets good distance on his tee shots. He
is also a fine iron shot player. The
Oakmonter is one of the golf veterans in
this district, and he first started to play
golf at the old Pittsburgh Field club
course out on Braddock avenue. After
wards when Oakmont was completed he
played there. . Chick was a member of
the first golf team formed in this city.
His case is an example of what perse
veranee and application will accomplish
EMMET FRENCH WINS
"CHICK" FOWNES
The following article, written by
"Mashie Niblick" and appearing in the
golf column of the "Pittsburgh Leader"
will be of interest to the Pinehurst
friends of "Chick" Fownes. Chick is
spending the winter at Pinehurst and has
been displaying some excellent golf on
the local courses.
Who is the greatest golfer in the
world f
The average golf fan will answer
Chick Evans, Bobby Jones, Francis Oui
met, Ted Ray, Harry Vardon, George
Duncan, Walter Hagcn and other golfers
who shine on the golfing firmament.
The greatest golfer, all conditions be
ing taken into consideration, physical
handicaps and overcoming of obstacles
which Avould deter and discourage the
average golfer, is believed to be right
here in Pittsburgh. And he is not Davy
Herron, William C. Fownes, Jr., or Eben
M. Byers, all three of whom have won the
national amateur championships.
It is no other than Charles B.
("Chick'?) Fownes, of the Oakmont
Country Club and a brother of William
C. Fownes, one of the leading amateurs
in America. Despite the fact that he
suffered from a physical affliction he is
a. player of remarkable ability. He
overcame almost insurmountable ob
stacles for his love of golf and today he
is a great golfer.
Right now he is performing in sensa
tional style down at Pinehurst, N. C,
where he is wintering. His last ap
pearance here in local competition was
First Money in Open Event
Emmet French, the Youngstown-South-ern
Pines professional who has been dis
playing such remarkable golf on the local
courses this season, won first money in
an all-professional tournament, played on
the Championship course at Pinehurst on
Friday last with a score of 76. Georgb
Fotheringham was second at 77, and
Harold Calloway, Buffalo, took third
money at SO.
Fotheringham lost his opportunity to
win when he took a 5 on the par 3
fifteenth. His tee shot was just off the
edge of the green, but he missed his sec
ond and overran the cup trying to sink a
long putt for a 3 and finally wound up
with a 5. French and Fotheringham
were all even playing the eighteenth
hole. Both players were on the green in
equal strokes and French ran down a
ten-foot putt for a win.
Charles Hoffner, the Philmont star,
took a 7 at the seventh bole which spoiled
his chances, and he finished sixth at 82.
Harold Calloway, the young Buffalo pro
fessional, was out in 37 and had an ex
cellent chance to win, but he got into diffi
culties on the thirteenth and wound up
with 43 for the return journey, and his
score of 80 won him third money. Walter
Howe took 43 for the outward trip but
came home in 38, the best inward score
of the field, and finished fifth at 81.
Charles Mothersele scored 40-4080 and
drew down fourth money.
All of the players played from the
back tees and had to play in the face of
a strong wind. The field finished as fol
lows :
Kmmet French, Youngstown 36-40 7b
George Fotheringham, N. Y. 36-41 77
Harold Calloway, Buffalo 37-4380
Clias. Mothersele. Pinehurst 40-4080
Walter Howe, Worcester 43-3881
Chas. Hoffner, Philmont 40-4282
Ralph Thomas, Boston 43-44 S7
