...Augusta airport David, 5½, emerged, waving a tall black cardboard hat. "He's a Pilgrim," explained grandmother Mamie Eisenhower. In an hour Ike was on the first tee in a golf foursome. Playing 18 holes, he was off his usual game (middle 80s), and shooting in the 90s. Then the President settled down in "the Eisenhower Cabin," as the Augusta National Golf Club officially calls the $75,000, seven-room house it built for Ike. The "cabin," styled with a white-columned front porch and a steep slate roof with dormer windows, perches on a ridge...
...their films (except for The Stooge) have tried, without notable success, to maintain the nightclub pace for a full 90 minutes.

Husband George was full of forebodings: "I don't expect her to do too good. She's prepared for any disappointment...
...Colorado Springs, fortnight ago. Lesbia, tanned and relaxed, has done all her winning despite a strikingly leisurely approach. "I guess I'm pretty lazy about practice. It's so hot here in the summer." In the cool of an evening, instead of hammering shots from a practice tee, Lesbia would just as soon putter around a miniature golf course, a practice which shocks graver golfing types. At the Broadmoor tournament, she flubbed around in 83 in practice. But when the chips were down, she was the tournament medalist with a fine 72. Explains Lesbia: "I never...
