CONTRIBUTED Below is a poem that was given us for publication by Mr. William L. O’Connor, of Indianapolis, who is staying for a few weeks on the north side of Lake Wawasee. The poem was published in the Journal about fifteen years ago and as you will see when reading it, the author w a s Joseph W. Wallace, who very cleverly proves that there can be glory even in defeat. “O’Connor On The Green,” since the time it was written, has been published several times in a large number of the leading golf magazines. The poem follows: “O’Connor On The Green” You could hear him when he started For the hole that is number The crowd was rather grouchy And no one said “A-men”. I heard his club swing gently And then an awful smack The ball went straight towards the hickories Straight-way down the track. I saw him grab his brassie ' And looking straight ahead He hit that “Baby Dimple” My heart went down like lead. And gazing down the hillside I saw it strike the green For the ball had landed safely Where the old red flag had been. To see that caddie gallop To Pull the iron rod Would bring peace with your neighbor Or even with your God. I’ve played at Coney Island And old Atlantic, too And I’ve been to Colorado Where the skies are good and blue. But it wr>s n*' -it ‘V O( luotonsing I met m “Waterloo” And on the day O’Connor beat me I felt mighty blue* by Jos. W. Wallace. > TRY JOURNAL WAN T ADS
