19TH HOLE: THE READERS TAKE OVER
March 29, 1965
WORLD SWEEPERSSirs:My thanks to SI and Barbara LaFontaine for taking much of the national mystery from our popular sport of curling (A Stone's Throw to a Playdown, March 15). Now, when I tell my seat companion on the plane out of Atlanta or Dallas that I am hurrying home to Wisconsin to get my broom and go out and play with the stones on a sheet of ice he may not whisper to the stewardess about moving away from this nut in the seat beside him.

During my many travels, I have found few areas that compare with Wayne County's friendliness, sincerity, cultural environment, knack of business acumen, industrial progress and just plain livability. We do have outstanding farms, too, even though few of our farmers use the word "ain't."

PROGRESS REPORT
Sirs:
In view of your somewhat lighthearted reference to my latest golfing client, Cobie LeGrange (SCORECARD, March 1), I thought you might like to know that he recently tied for first place in the Flame Lily tournament in Bulawayo, Southern Rhodesia. Unfortunately, he lost the playoff to Cedric Amm. Cobie has now arrived in the U.S. and is sharpening up for the Masters.
