This sort of thing goes on all winter, from December to early April. The big smash climax comes with the Bobby Jones tournament at Augusta. There are scores of tourna- | ments, scores of champions, and scores of scores. Taking the long view, none of them means anything. All the public remembers are the open champion, the amateur champion—and in a scattered sense—the P. G. A. champion And vet these false mask championships, made possible by chamber of commerce and hotel subsidies, play a very vital part in the development of American golf. Th winter tours, inspired strictly by commercial motives because vou cannot have one of these shows unless you first put up the dough—place an emphasis on ambition. which consciously or no, is | subsequently translated into constant practice, and the logical re«ult is not only better golfers, but more better golfers. Furnish Great Golfers Most of the great golfers of the last decade have come from the winter tours. Who ever heard of Horton Smith before he started winning championships in the bushes? Or Paul Runyan, Johnny Revolta, Henry Picard, Ray Man- | grum, Jimmy Hines, Jug McSpaden, Byron Nelson, Jimmy Thom«on, and the current phenomenon, Sam Snead? Not to mention others. { Standing back of the home green watching Metz drop his win- | nine putt vesterday was a stocky, tacitiin, eve-glassed gent, who if he did not innovate the winter tour been mainly responsible for success. 1 believe he is the best known non-combatant in big time His name is Bob Harlow. Tt hss been due to his ingenuity and enterprise that a regiment of men have discovered annual calling points during the winter from coast to coast. He ‘dug up the suckers who made the guarantees for the golfing gypsies. As Mr. Harlow stood at the home green his role was that of an out- | cast. He had been unceremoniously fired. The man who made all these potential champions—who literally lured them out of hay stacks and from under rocks—was iconoclast. The P.G.A. had given him the bum’s rush. Jacobus Head of P. G. A.
