Plea for a Golf Penalty By Edmund Gilligan "THERE is absolutely no reason why the golfer who practises fervently on some Southern course during the winter should be allowed to come North in the spring, after neglecting business for months, and be allowed to enter spring tournaments. There are many golfers who get the idea each fall that they can sneak something over on the rest of the gang by stealing off to the South, playing A Prehistoric Elopement thirty-six holes a day all winter, and writing back to the crowd at the country club that they haven't swung a stick. They give all sorts of excuses for going South. Either the wife wants to go, or his nerves are going. Any- thing will do as long as he gets there. But when he gets home in the spring he walks sprightly to the first tee. He makes a remark that the driver feels funny, and wishes that he hadn't left his clubs at home when he went South. Then he bangs the ball 250 yards He always wins the cups until the rest of the crowd get into shape. Something should be done. It is an injustice. He should be barred from tourna ments for two months.
