RATLIFF Associated Press Sports Writer Golf has become quite colorless, mainly because it has reached a near state of perfect organization. Now the fans go out to see the boys play solely because of the skill involved and not for their rhubarbs with the sponsors, club throwing and arguments with the crowd. There is little reason for such shenanigans. Everything is cov ered by the rules, there is enough money offered that the golfers want to make every tournament they can get to and they don’t want to spent time arguing about something when there is impor tant money to be won. It was only a decade ago that sports writers spent more time reporting the rhubarbs than tell ing about who was playing the best golf. The reason was that the rules had not been worked out to cover all phases of tournament play and more important still the sponsors and the PGA were at loggerheads on just about every thing. Today there aren’t many rhu barbs and if they are any they can be settled in a few minutes by checking the agreements and the rules. Color has been taken from the game but the crowd isn’t even missing it. Now it is a question of being able to accommodate all the people who want to see a tour nament. The PGA also is finding it difficult taking care of all the cities that want tournaments. There are 50 played in the nation each year with over $2,000,000 in prize money. There also is a Ca ribbean tour. How did golf arrive at its pres ent placid state? The Texas Open was held for the thirty - eighth time recently. It accentuated the progress of the game. The Texas Open was the first “big money” event. Back in 1922 it offered $5,000 prize money. Until that time tournaments didn’t have enough to be won for a golf er to pay his expenses of getting there. ,, The Texas Open has been the scene of some of golf’s greatest rhubarbs. But it was at the Texas Open that the present great or ganization of golf sponsors start ed and M. P. (Monk) Wilson* then president of the San Antonio Golf Association, was the organizer. He got sponsors of the winter tour to band together in an effort to reach agreements with the PGA over how golf was to be operated. “It’s called Chesterfield ...and it’s King Size.” , I GAZETTES * LIGGETT t> MYERS TOBACCO CO. 21 GREAT TOBACCOS MAKE 20 WONDERFUL SMOKES!
