“THE WOLF”
CHAMPION GOLFER DEFEAT OF FERRIER Champion golfer Jim Ferricr is referred to as 1 “The Wolf” by those who chase the white pill, hut more particularly by those he has devoured in match play, says a Melbourne writer. Telling of his great win over Ferricr in the State close championship, played on the Concord course, von Nida said he felt like little Red Riding Hood, as “The ’Wolf” was for so long just behind him. I expected to be devoured at any moment, tor you can never tell what “The Wolf” is capable of doing in a game,” said von Nida. The little Queenslander played superbly throughout the championship. He had one or two patchy periods, but generally his golf was flawless. Ferrier made the mistakes we all do. he is only human. N. von Nida finished with 280, Ferrier with 284, and the Bolger brothers with 290 each.
