...able to join this caravan is the goal of the average U. S. golf professional. Not only does it give him an opportunity to maintain a competitive edge to his game but here is his chance to observe at close range the better-than-average professionals-topnotchers like Harry Cooper, Horton Smith, Johnny Revolta, Henry Pic-ard-who play in the winter circuit because i) they are on the payroll ($5,000 to $10,000 a year) of U.

He got 21 other nations to join with the U. S. in signing a pact controlling world sugar production for five years (TIME, May 10).
