About this listen

Frankie, just a boy of 14, was always seeking ways to make money. When a garbage collecting company in his small hometown had a job opportunity for an enterprising young student, Frankie was one of several boys who jumped at the chance to be a garbage collector - a career he actually considered for himself years earlier.

He was, unfortunately, a scrawny kid at 5’ 10” but only 120 pounds, which did not impress the owner, at all. Despite Frankie holding up two heavy garbage cans at his house on garbage day to positively influence the owner/driver of the garbage truck, his admirable effort failed, for the owner had already offered the job to another student.

Frankie had no hard feelings about losing the garbage collecting job, but since there were few money-making opportunities for a young boy, he struggled to find something lucrative and enjoyable, too. Frankie performed odd jobs, including raking leaves, shoveling snow, and getting bloody hands weeding those horrible, thorny bushes at Mr. Perez’s house, with all providing some compensation, but none of these efforts were much fun.

Fortunately, his friend Ozzie, who was a caddie at the River Vale Country Club, came to the rescue, inviting Frankie to become a caddie, too. Those golfers who did not wish to carry their own golf clubs or pull a golf cart holding their clubs, and who desired to get good exercise walking the course, hired a caddie to carry their golf clubs, find their golf balls, keep score, and, on occasion, give advice on club selection.

However, Ozzie did have a concern about Frankie as a caddie. Frankie, though humorous, had a big mouth, with a penchant for saying anything that came to mind. Would golfers who had Frankie as their caddie enjoy his bold musings?

Only time would tell, as Frankie, the witty caddie, who knew almost nothing about golf, learned the game quickly. He became a caddie on his first day at the golf course for a delightful, kind man named Bob, who was part of a horrible, golf-playing foursome, including Reggie, Whitey, and Jessie that day.

The fun and frolics that ensued for their 18-hole golf adventure, despite this foursome’s woeful inability to play golf, was surely enhanced by the hilarious and sometimes belittling comments, not to mention the “heroic” actions by Frankie, which were not only surprisingly welcomed but enjoyed by all.
