Holbert’s prediction comes true
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga.
(UPI) — Al Holbert made his
prediction come true at Road
Atlanta Sunday afternoon when
he took the Camel GT race in his
Chevrolet Monza.
Holbert had said during
qualifying sessions Monzas
would win the event and
predicted his would be the one
to take the checkered flag.

Masters Saturday
AUGUSTA, Ga. (UPI) - Ray
Floyd knew he had the Masters
won, but he wanted to wrap it all
up in a neat, tidy package.
“I knew the tournament was
mine Saturday night,” said
Floyd after his runaway eight
strike victory Sunday. “I didn’t
believe anyone else could catch
me. But, I didn’t want to do it
sloppily.”
He didn’t.
Floyd had a steady 2-under
par 70 in the final round, good
enough for a four-day total of 17-
under-par 271 that tied the
Masters record Jack Nicklaus
set in 1965.
“I honestly wasn’t thinking
about the record at first,” he
said. “But I did start thinking
about it when I went 17 under
with my birdie at the 15th hole.
“I knew I had the tournament
won, providing I didn’t break a
leg or something, so I figured
why not go for the record.”
Floyd parred the last three
holes and thus missed setting a
new 72-hole mark.
He set 36-<131) and 54-hole
(201) records and his 14 under
par showing for the par fives at
Augusta National was a stroke
better than Jimmy Demaret’s
next-best showing back in 1950.
“My play on the par fives was

Al Holbert (in lead car) predicted he would win the Camel

“I figured if we can make a
Monza win where no one else
has been able to, That would
give our team a reputation for
taking something and making a
winner out of it,” he said.
Holbert was never really
challenged in the 100-mile, 40-

When the checkered flag fell,
Holbert was more than five
the secret of my success this
week,” said Floyd. “I figured
the way the course was playing

Keyser, also in a Monza, and

in a Monza before and this time
we took both first and second,”
Holbert said. “It sure makes us
happy.”

Hawks end
season
ATLANTA (UPI) — Veteran
Atlanta forward Lou Hudson
had a suggestion for newsmen
Sunday night after the Hawks
ended their poorest season since
moving South.
“Your headline tomorrow
should read, ‘Nightmare over,
vacation begins,”’ he said.
The Hawks had lost to the
Houston Rockets 122-111 before
1,343 fans, a record low
attendance for the Omni.
Their 29-53 record was the
Hawks’ worst since moving to
Atlanta from St. Louis in 1969.
“Frankly, this was the most
frustrating experience of my
career, the way we finished,”
said Hudson, who scored 20
points in the loss to the Rockets.
