Billy

JFK was in Palm Beach and played golf with Billy Graham at the Seminole Golf Club, along with pal George Smathers. Smathers lost a $20 bet with Kennedy on who would shoot the lowest score.

Sometime during the day, Graham gave Jack a 20 page manuscript containing excerpts from the Scriptures. Kennedy had asked the preacher for ideas from the Bible that he might include in his inauguration address.
