GOLF In spite, of opposition we stili believe that golf is really 'a, game for ods men. :We are, well aware. of the fact that Bobby Jones is flot an oldish> mani and that he enjoys golf. However, me contend that he and other youthful golf enthusiasts are exceptions. John D. Rockefeller, Sr., is our typical golfer, and John D. is an oldishi marn. Virtually ail real golfers are cither tired or retired business men, .Very 'recently we, took up ping pon Ig, primarily to cicover its merits as a moderately exciting game2. We have achieved only a very moderate .degrec of sk,îll in ping -ponging, having been defeated hy, cluite a' nuniber* and, variety of hunian beings,. Our conclusions as to the merits of the game are that the game is pretty good. Lt is a surprisingly inexpensive garne. eetire outfit, costs only: a few dollars. Caddies cari be dispensed with. Its easy operation c ails for only' the area of an ordinary room. Finally in order to. bc an, expert pilg pong player one, must. acquire con- *siderable'skill. Neg!ecting certain unimportanit differences, we have decided that ping pong is about as good a ganse as barn-yard golf. -Fil, Ossifer.
