Meat for cartoonists and jokesmiths is the golfer who killed his caddy. But last week at Philadelphia’s Huntingdon Valley Country Club, the thing actually happened. James B. McFarland III cut his drive at the fifth tee into deep rough. He swished his club angrily. It slipped from his hand, smote Caddy John Klemming, 35, in the temple. Klemming died before sundown. “I hope,” said James B. McFarland III, “my experience will be a lesson to angry golfers.”
