QUEER GOLF
Club-Tossing Contest Golf tools of all sizes flew far, high and straight at the Druid Hills Country Club in Atlanta’s first club throwing tournament in U.S.A, on August 1. Randolph Timmerman heaved a No. 1 iron sixty-one yards against a stiff breeze, to capture the distance trophy. Ned Roberts led the south-paw distance-tea-sers, but made only fifty yards. Dr. Julius Hughes, one of the State’s better golfers, won the altitude prize by zooming a pitching-iron over a 80-foot pine tree, and Philip Etheridge proved most accurate by dropping his mashieniblick some seven feet from a mark at fifty yards. Jesse Draper had a walkaway in the “form” event with his “kangaroo spin.” Harry Stephens,' dub professional, sponsored the unique competition and awarded the prizes.
