Helen Hicks
Toronto Daily Star, October 6 1931
This edition of the Toronto Daily Star contains this brief article that reads like something from a spy thriller:
Helen Hicks (1911-1974) had just won the U.S. women's amateur championship, beating Glenna Collett Vare in the final. Two years later, she reached the final again, but lost. She also won the Canadian women's amateur championship in 1929.
In 1934, she became one of the first women golfers to turn professional. In 1950, she was one of the 13 women who founded the LPGA.
