North And South Meet On Lincoln Park Links

Charlie Wilson, industrial representative in the Bay Dis- trict for Chas. R. McCormick & Co., sauntered out to the Lincoln Park Golf Links on Sunday, December 7, as is his usual custom. By chance Charlie happened to be all by himself, as the rain evidently discouraged the other parties who were to constitute his foursome. White waiting, he noted that a rather forlorn golfer was having quite an ordeal with the starter and from his actions eharlie sort of figured that he was a stranger in the Bay District. Throught the efforts of an energetic caddy who wanted to make the day profitable, he succeeded in bringing Charlie and the stranger together. After a few ,holes had been playe_d, Charlie's partner informed him that he was going to take part in -a lumbermen golf tournament at pn early date, so after a few more questions were passed by Charlie, the stranger was no other than Ray F. Throm of Los Angeles, who is associated with L. H. Ives & Co., in the southern _metropolis. So it developed into a perfect day fo.r both Ray and Charlie, who are both good golf.r.. Bui Charlie had a slight edge on Ray as he shot in 83, while Ray went over the course in 85.
