"Every kid should have the cnance to grow up

on agolf course." Youngsters have never faced as many temptations and frustrations as

they do today. And that's why I think it's particularly valuable for boys and girls to get involved in a sport like golf. It not only gives them a chance for self-expression, but it's a great teacher of self-reliance and self-discipline.

The problem is, most kids don't have an organized Junior Golf program to encourage them and help them learn the game. And that's why the National Golf Foundation is so important.

They've been promoting Junior Golf since 1936. And they'd like nothing better than to help you start a J unior Golf program at your golf club, in your schools, or in your town. I started in a Junior Golf program myself. And believe me, there isn't a better place for a kid to grow up than a golf course.
