The Blonde Tornado by Feg Murray
A 1920s golf feature profiles a young west coast amateur who challenged Bobby Jones last year at Lochinvar and aims to upstage him this season. George von Elm dominates Pacific Coast events, winning Northern and Southern California crowns, and eyes the amateur title with growing confidence.

He resides in Los Angeles.
