Golf Illustrated's 70th birthday

I join in congratulating "Golf Illustrated" on attaining last week it's

seventieth birthday.

Three score years and ten of golf! Though I am privileged to know characters like J. H. Taylor, 89; Willie Auchterlonie 88; John Rowe, who at the age of 90 wrote me a three-page letter from Forest Row the other day in handwriting which cannot have been better when he was in his teens; and the comparatively youthful Bernard Darwin, who at the time of the first issue had seven years to wait before he was to captain Cambridge, I scan the first volume, which I have before me as I write, as though looking into a different and in many ways, let it be whispered, better work.
