The Golf Specialist

The Golf Specialist is a 1930 pre-Code comedy short subject from RKO Pictures, starring W. C. Fields.

In a Florida hotel, the House Detective's wife likes to flirt with other men.

Deep Sea McGurk comes in and asks the Desk Clerk for J. Effingham Bellweather, but he is not in.

McGurk dictates a note for the Desk Clerk to give to Bellweather that he wants to collect the money that is owed to him.

Finally, the Sheriff and the House Detective come out to the course to arrest con artist Bellweather for a list of absurd crimes (including "eating spaghetti in public", "jumping board bill in seventeen lunatic asylums", "failure to pay installments on a strait-jacket", and "possessing a skunk"); the police put handcuffs on him just as he's showing the Detective's Wife the importance of keeping the wrists close together while gripping the club.
