THE CHINA “MAIL, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 1956.

At a time when more and more tournaments are being introduced into the professional golfing calendar, that broth of a boy from Dublin, hefty Harry Bradshaw, laments that there are too many,

When he came over from Eire to Richmond, Surrey, for the first ever Amateurs versus Professionals match on level terms, he told me he had lost the savour to play, and was tired of the constant fray, "I would be much happier playing in only a few tournaments each summer," he said, "and treat them as re-unions my brother professionals."

HOLLYWOOD'S GREAT RIVAL.

ROME IS DOING PENANCE

FOR ITS MOVIE “SINS"

By HENRY GRIS

Rome was out to regain the cinematographic prestige it had lost in the early 1990's following some spectacular trail-blazing in the silent film days.
