Caddy-Scramble
To celebrate the opening of a new links at the Knollwood Country Club near White Plains, N. Y., President (of the club) William C. Breed stood upon the first golf tee, swung a club which drove a ball 200 yards,/- straight and true. Six dozen caddies whooped, jostled one another, scampered down the fairway after President Breed's ball. To that caddy who returned with the ball, was presented $5 in gold.
Then Secretary D. S. Edmonds put a slight "hook" on a 175-yard drive; Chairman of the Construction Committee J. H. Bookmeyer drove straight for 200 yards; and two more caddies earned $5 apiece.
Finally, Treasurer W. H. Merrill swung hastily, knocked a ball 25 yards at an acute angle, and the gold rush went into the tall grass.
/-A good drive with which any man, short of a champion, might be content.
