Hi Steve:

I'm assuming you tried the Museum of Broadcasting in NYC? Try the Pavek Museum in MN. You never know 
what turns up there. Also, I'd make some calls around Minneapolis. It's a small enough city that 
someone might know a radio buff or other old character who might have an archive of stuff. Maybe 
start at the city historical society? Since this took place in MN, I'd lean toward starting with 
Pavek because they might well know someone who knows something if they don't have first-hand source 
material on hand.

For the U.S. Golf Assciation I'm trying to locate broadcast material related to the U.S. Open 
broadcasts on July 10, 1930 from Minneapolis.  Description of play and interviews following Bobby 
Jones' victory were broadcast over CBS (5:10-7PM) and an interview with Jones' friend, O.B. Keeler 
on NBC.  There were surely news reports as well.

There was a further group of NBC and CBS broadcasts during September 22-27 during the U.S. Amateur 
at Ardmore, PA.

Later that year there was a parade for Jones in NYC.

Has anyone audio or film from the above events?
