...amateur, selling clubs and giving demonstrations. Galleries who watch a player unique for the uncanny accuracy of her iron shots, which are the weak point in almost every other woman's game, are usually surprised, no matter how low Joyce Wethered's score is, because they expect it to be lower. Soberly Spinster Wethered, who holds the world's record for women (68, made last summer at Woodbridge, England), tried to explain what, for her, were mediocre scores last week: "The change from amateur to professional has affected my game in a way I really cannot describe...

Hurry relieve anguished mother." But the week-end passed without George's return. Of all George's friends and relations, most optimistic was his schoolteacher. Said she: "He has such...

Less sanguine observers have suggested cause for doubt. The human ear, which accepted sound in cinema so readily, has been scientifically found to be much less sensitive and hence much less critical than the eye. A wax effigy, much more lifelike than a statue, can still be less impressive, since its effort to achieve reality calls attention to its failure. Hollywood producers, though most of them expect color to arrive...
