Bill Corum, A famous American Sports writer of the first half of the twentieth century, was also doing weekly radio in the 1930s. The amateur athlete of the year was also one of his guests. One year that athlete was the polo player Tommy Hitchcock who was far more publicity shy than Corum. After a flattering introduction Corum asked a lengthy question about polo in response to which Hitchcock nodded. And so it went for the duration of the program, probably fifteen minutes or less in those days, but Corum's account of how he would supply a yes or no in answer to his many questions is an hilarious but uncomfortable read. At the end you don't know who was squirming more, Corum or Hitchcock.
