Cunningham's Column on a golf match between Cobb and Ruth
The column reviews the sparsely attended charity golf bout between Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth. It notes 104 paid admissions in New York and around 1,000 in Boston, with critics baffled by the poor turnout, despite the players' fame and left-handed nine-handicap status. It compares public interest to entertainment stunts and includes quirky asides about expectations and the public. It also contains local notices for readers, including a request for a missing drum and a kitten reward.
