| Abstract/Contents: | Relates a humorous anecdote about how Johnny Walker, chairman of the distillery, spoke before a board of Scottish board members deciding on a uniform number of holes for golf courses, relating the length of the course to how long a bottle of Scotch whiskey will last on the course, which is approximately 18 holes. |
