DOING IT PROPERLY
A typical example of the thoroughness with which the Americans go about their golf is given by the preparations which have already been made for the international professional match for the Ryder Cup. This event will be played in Great Britain next May. Nearly two months ago 12 players (from whom eight Avill be selected) were named as the team to make the trip. This group then set about serious practice, and the organisation of exhibition games for the purpose of raising the funds to cover the expenses of the trip. Before December over £I,OOO had been gathered in. Walter Hagen has been appointed captain, and the other members of the team are Leo Diegel, Gene Surazen, Johnny Farrell, Jack Burke, Willie Klein, Johnny Golden, Joe Turnest, A 1 Espinosa, Horton Smith, Fred Dudley and A 1 Watrous.
