...strode to the first tee, Babe obligingly clowned for photographers and the gallery, but she was in no joking mood. For one of the few times in her competitive golf life (14 years) the Babe found herself in the hole: one stroke behind stocky, redheaded Patty Berg, 33, Ladies' P.G.A. president...
Keep Out of Trouble. Last week Patty Berg gave Babe something to shoot at. After slamming home an eagle 2 on the 372-yd. tenth hole, Patty finished with a sparkling 73, 2 over men's par.

As Mendip himself says, "what a wonderful thing is metaphor...
...Minneapolis Golf Club seemed just about built to order for Golfer Stranahan's long-hitting game. It is nearly always windy there, just like St. Andrews, Scotland, where Frank won the British Amateur Championship this year (TIME, June 5). Minneapolis favors a man who can hit walloping tee shots the way Frank does; on one occasion, in an early round match, he boomed his drive past the pin on the 333-yd. 14th...
