Like nu- merous players he has always shown best in the practice rounds. As a result the tall, lithe, youngster, has seldom received publicity meri- torious of his potential ability. Stan is 24 years of age and has been keen about golf since he began caddying at the age of eight at the Lookout Point Course at Font- hill, Ont. Like Ceasar, Stan has been consumed with am- bition but this ambition has not been instru- mental in his downfall, although perhaps the youthful assistant professional of the Ottawa Hunt Club has been a trifle too keen. He is sound in his play, given slightly to the reverse or hook spin with his woods. He won the Ca- nadian title by shooting two 72’s on the closing day of the championship at Cataraqui in Kings- ton. Dick Borthwick and Willie Lamb of Toron- to were tied four strokes behind. Lamb was de- fending the title. Stanley Horne strokes a Putt Stan — The Ambitious — Becomes a Champion Fall's Inspiration The Fairway Lends A Loftier Thought - A Keener Sense of Appreciation For The Opportunity of Being Alive in Such A World The birds are sailing in the airy sea, And singing sweetly to their nested mates, Now sweeping low in circles wide and free, Now mounting in their joy to Heaven's gates A picture this for man’s instruction sent— ‘Type of the wise who soar but never roam.’ Oh, would we all in peace had like content, ‘True to the kindred points of Heaven and Home.’ + They’re sailing, red and purple, little clouds, Wth beauty and with glory in their wings, Aurora’s darlings, daughters of the mist, Theloveliest gifts that Mother Nature brings.

  • Pamela Barton
    Pamela Barton Pamela Espeut Barton (4 March 1917 – 13 November 1943) was an English amateur golfer. She was born in the London suburb of Barnes, the daughter of Henry Charles Johnston Barton and Ethel Maude Barton. In 1934, aged 17, she won the French International Ladies Golf Championship and after being runner-up in 1934 and 1935, she won the 1936 British Ladies Amateur. She then traveled to the Canoe Brook Country Club in Summit, New Jersey where she won the U.S. Women's Amateur over Maureen Orcutt. Her victory was the first by a foreign competitor in 23 years and the first time in 27 years that a player held both the British and U.S. titles simultaneously. Barton was a member of the British team to compete in the 1934 and 1936 Curtis Cup and in 1937 her book A Stroke a Hole was published in the United Kingdom by Blackie & Son. In 1939, Barton won her second British Ladies Amateur but following the outbreak of World War II she immediately signed up as an ambulance driver and served in London through the Battle of Britain. In early 1941 she joined the Women's Auxiliary Air Force (WAAF) as a radio operator, later gaining a commission she served as a Flight Officer in command of a staff of more than 600 at RAF Manston in Kent. On 13 November 1943, 26-year-old Barton was killed in an air crash at RAF Detling when a de Havilland Tiger Moth in which she was a passenger hit a fuel bowser on take-off in bad weather.[1] She was buried with military honours at the Margate Cemetery in Margate, Kent.
