Old Guard Golf
Kings Seek Win
PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan, 24.—(AP)—It is up to the old
> guard of the nation’s golfers to regain the limelight as the
zannual SIO,OOO Phoenix Open gets underway today—the
third tournament of the 1952 winter trail.
Two evenis have been won by
momen to golf fame Ted
of New Hartford, N. Y., won
the SIO,OOO San Diego Open last
weekend and Tommy Bolt of Dur
ham, N. C., grabbed the rich $17,~
800 Log Angeles Open early this
month.
The Old Guard, represented by
colorful Jimmy Demaret of Ojai,
Calif., by way of his native Texas,
moved into the picture once. De
maret came in first in Bing Cros
by’s SIO,OOO tournament at Pebble
Beach, Calif., two weeks ago.

. Today 130 or more players were
slated to tee off at the Phoenix
Country Club, a par 36-35—71 test
over 6,578 yards. .
Included is Lew Worsham, a
comparative old timer from Pitts
burgh, who dazzled the galleries a
year ago with a record breaking 63
for the course on the final day
~ and a 72-hole total of 272. Wor
sham was U. S. Open champion in
1947,

Women’s Golf
Begins Today
MIAMI, Fla., Jan, 24.—(AP)—
Thirty-two of the nation’s best
women golfers tee off today in
the first round of nratch play in
the 20th annual Helen Lee Doh
erty Golf Tournament.
They were in the championship
flight and scored 87 or betteér to
gain the select circle over a bulky
field of nearly 150 players who
battled over the Miami Country
Club course yesterday in the qual
ifying round.
Defending champion Claire Do
ran of Cleveland, who did not
have to qualify but played for the
fun of it, faces Mrs. Ann Sparrow
Robertson of Miami, who had an
82, in the upper bracket.
Medalist Mae Murray of Rut
land, Vt., carded a 35-39—74 to
pace the bulky field and heads the
lower bracket. Her opponent will
be Charlotie DeCozen of Parsip
pany, N. J., who had 82.
Miszs Murray, a five-foot-two
125-pounder, was accurate with
her approach shots and deadly
with her putting iron, She needed
only 31 pntts for the round. At
that, her medalist score was three
strokes higher than the record
made by Marlene Bauer of Mid
land, Texas, in 1950.
Three tied for second place in
qualifying with 76s—Polly Riley
of Fort Worth, Texas; Mary Ann
Downey of Baltimore, and Barba
ra Romack of Sacramento, Calif.
Mary Lena Faulk of Thomas
ville, Ga., the only other golfer to
break 80, came in with a 78, Thir
tv-six scored 87 or better.
Finals will be played Sunday
over the 7,200-yard Miamil Coun
try Club course where women’s
par is 75,
Kansas State,
Jayhawks Vie
Saturday
MANHATTAN, Kas, Jan. 24—
(AP)~—Phog Allen and Jack Gard
ner, neither noted for reticence,
delved into psychological warfare
today in preparing for a class be
tween Kansas and Kansas State—
two of the country’s top basketball
teams.
Allen, the Kansas Jayhawks'
wveteran coach, directed his barbs
at Kansas State’s Gardner. And
Gardner leveled his attack at tow=-
ering Clyde Lovellette, the Jay
hawks’ leading scorer.
Kansas, the nation’s No, i team
in the Associated Press poll for
three weeks before being shoved
into second place by Illinois, and
Kansas State, No. 7 nationally,
each have three victories against
no losses in the Big Seven Con
ference.
The Jayhawks are undefeated in
13 games this season and have a
16-game winning streak dating
back into last year. K-State has
a season mark of 12 successes and
3 losses and is the defending
league champion.
The 13,500 plus fans who will
crowd into the new Kansas State
Field House Saturday probably
aren’'t as interested in the oratory
of the rival coaches as they are in
the game itself.
The barbs thrown out by Gard
ner and Allen, however, may have
more than a little to do with the
final score Saturday.
Gardnér says he thinks that 6
foot 9 inch Lovellette, one of the
nation’s leading scorers, is getting
all of the breaks from the officials.
He contends other coaches of the
league — excepting Allen -- agree
with him.
Allen, on the other hand, says
Gardner’s motives are dark and
sinister. The phogger, dean of the
nation’s coaches, says Gardner is
trying to put the pressure on of
-Ificials with the hope of getting
Kansas’ huge Lo vellette out of the
g fracas early in the evening.
i Getting down to the game pro
per, it shapes up as a battle be
tween Kansas State’s team attack
and the scoring ability of Lovel
lette.

Lovellette And
Pettit Vie For
Scoring Lead
NEW YORK, Jan, 24 — (AP) —
Clyde Lovellette of Kansas holds
the major college basketball scor
ing leadership, but only by a scant
one-tenth of a point, according to
figures released today by the Na
tional Collegiate Athletic Bureau.
Through game of Saturday,
Lovellette averaged 26.5 points per
game to keep the No, 1 spot for the
sixth straight week. But 18-year
old Bobby Pettit of Louisiana
State was hot on Lovellette’'s trail
with a 26.4 mark.
Lovellette, ace of the second
ranked team in the land in the
Associated Press’ weekly poll, has
poured in 345 points in 13 games.
Pettit, the six-foot nine-inch LSU
sophomore, has hit for 317 in 12
contests.
Besides raising his average more
than two points per game last
week, Pettit found the range for
50 peints against Georgia Friday
night — a feat accomplished by
only five other players in collegi
ate history against major opposi
tion.
Rounding out the first five are
Mark Workman of West Virginia
(24.8), Don (Monk) Meineke of
Dayton (24.4) and Chuck Darling
of Towa (24.0). Glen Smith of
Utah has the highest grand total
with 398 points in 20 games, but
he is only 20th in the averages.
In the other categories, Warren
Dean of Washington and Lee
topped the field goal percentages,
Bob Kenney of Kansas the free
throw percentages and Clarence
Hannon of Army the rebounds.
Walcott Eyes
List Of Title
Candidates
NEW YORK, Jan. 24.—(AP)—
The battle of wits and statements
among most of the principals in
the proposed Jersey Joe Walcott-
Ezzard Charles heavyweight
champioonship fight, continues to
blaze merrily.
In Portland, Maine, Walcott said
he had fought 21 years before he
won the title and “no one’s gonna.
take it away from me outside a
ring.”
Felix Roccchicchio, manager of
the heavyweight titleholder, would
like to fight either Rocky Marcia
no or Harry (Kid) Matthews, and
makes no bones about it, He even
said he was forced to agree to a
return bout with Charales “under
duress.”
Matthews” manager, Jack Hur
ley, who dves his battling via long
distance from his base of opera
tions in Seattle, said his man will
fight Walcott—and for the title.
“] wonder if Christenberry will
recognize Harry as champion
when he beats Joe,” mused Hur-
By, ;
That’s how things stood when
President Jim Norris of the Inter
national Boxing Club, the pro
moter of the proposed fight, re
treated to his Coral Gables, Fla.,
winter home., He has a date there
on February 1 with Bocchiechio
and Jake Mintz, Charles’ co-man
ager.
Christenberry is having none of
‘the Bocchicechio-Hurley lines. It's
going to be Walcott-Charles or
nothing if he has his way. Walcott
is under exclusive contract to the
IBC, and since the club has been
feuding with Hurley for months,
it’s unlikely that Norris would put
his OK on a Walcott-Matthews
imbroglio. :

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
[Large Crowd On Hand For
Stack - Patterson Water Duel
The largest crowd ever to see a swimming meet in the
state of Georgia—some I,soo—jammed Stegeman Hall to
capacity Wednesday night and saw Georgia’s greatest tank
tfigm up%ezt the U. 8. Naval Training Center of Bainbridge,
~ 52-82.
The crowd had come to see the
Navy’s mfghtly backstroker, Oly
mpiec Champlon Allen Stack, risk
his reputation against Georgia's
brilliant sophomore, Reid Patter
son of Pineville, Ky.
They saw Stack in peak form as
he shattered the pool record for the
200-yard backstroke with a 2:11.2
clocking. Patterson swam the fast
est of his carrer in finishing a body
length behind In 2:154. The old
pool record was 2:20.5 held by Pat
terson. The SEC record is 2:25.3
held by Enyeart of Florida.
Praises Patterson
Stack, after the meet, had noth
ing but praise for Patterson:
“He has one of the smoothest
strokes I have seen,” said Stack,
who observed Patterson in the in
dividual medley in which Stack
did not compete. “He definitely is
an Olympic team prospect this
summer. He swims well enough
now, just seems to need polishing
up on his turns which will come
with experience.”
Stack thought Patterson was
even a greater prospect in the free
style, an opinion which Georgia
Coach Bump Gabrielsen shares.
Stack is a great free styler, too,
but he lost to Patterson in the final
event—4oo-yard free style relay.
Stack, swimming third for Bain
bridge, hit the water a stroke a
head of Patterson but Patterson
made it up and handed Georgia’s
anchorman. Charley Cooper a full
body’s length lead. Cooper touched
out Bainbridge’s great anchorman,
Charley Stephanos former All-
American star at Ohio State, in a
sensational finish that had the
crowd standing.
Records Fall
Four pool records fell: 300-yard
medely relay in 2:54.5 by Geor
gia’s Patterson, Charley Guyer
and Cooper (old record was 3:04.4
by Miami in 1950); 220-yard free
style in 2:15.5 by Stephanos of
Brainbridge (old record was 2:16.6
Caffray of Miami in 1950); 200-
yard backstroke in 2:11.2 by Stack
and 400-yard free style relay by
Georgia’s Guyer, Charley Sligh,
Patterson and Cooper in 3:36.5 (old
record was 3:41.2 by Georgia Tech
in 1951).
Winners in the other five swim
ming events lacked breaking pool
records by less than a second each
time, and would douQ;leess have
‘done the trick had they been push
ed to win, T
Georgia’s Charley Cooper was
high point man with 13.3, achieved
on firstin the 50 and 100 yard free
style: ard a leg on both victorious
relays.
Georgia’'s Charley Guyer and
Chuck Henninger both upset Bain
bridge’s Bob Dunlap in the 200
yard breaststroke Dunlap was
fourth in the NCAA champion
ships in this event at Purdue last
year.
~ Little Steve Mitakis, Georgia's
‘diver, was in rare form and took
‘the three-meter diving to re
main undefeated this season. -

Cincinnati Is
33 College In
Cage Scandal
NEW YORK, Jan. 24 — (AP) —
The basketball scandals, which
have been running for a year and
a week, have entangled eight col
leges, 32 players, one official and
25 fixers and material witnesses.
The list of schools was increased
by one yesterday and one was
added to the group of material
witnesses when Sam D. Feinberg,
39, former Cincinnati sports pro
moter, was held in SIO,OOO bond as
a would-be briber of two Univers
ity of Cincinnati players.
Refuse Offers
The Cincinnati players, how
ever, were praised in general ses
sions court for turning down the
bribes. They were Alvin Ruben
stein and Jack Laud.
A sworn statement read by As
sistant District Attorney Vincent
A. G. OConnor said Feinberg
asked Rubenstein and Laub to
shave points several times during
the 1948-49 and 1949-50 seasons.
Feinberg, the statement said, al
so agreed to put up the money so
his half-brother, Saul, could fix
a Kentucky game on the West
Coast during the 1948-49 season.
The alleged fix, however, fell
through.
Saul Feinberg is one of the 13
alleged fixers under indictmént
for fixing games. Another, Sol
Rappaport, a salesman, pleaded
guilty yesterday to conspiracy and
faces a possible maximum sen
tence up to three years.
Pleads Guilty
Henry E. Poppe, former Man
hattan College co-captain, also
pleaded guilty to conspiracy.
Poppe and Rappaport were
charged with attempting to bribe
Junius Kellogg, Manhattan negro
star.
It was Kellogg who told author
ities the two offered him a bribe
in a game against DePaul of Chi
cago, Dec. 16.
Kellogg’s action set off the in
vestigation that has led to the
sentencing of 19 players and two
fixers. * Under indictment are five
players and 13 alleged fixers. Two
other alleged fixers and eight ma
terial witnesses also have been in
dicted. And eight players out of
New York’s jurisdiction also have
been involved.
Colleges drawn into the scandals
include, CCNY, Manhattan and
New York Univ., all of New York
City: Bradley, Kentucky, Toledo,
Cincinnati and Long Island Uni
versity.

BOSTON, Jan. 24—(AP)—With
spring football practice banned at
Yale, Coach Herman Hickman has
advised all of his players to go out
for other sports.
While attending the Yale club
¢* Boston dinner held, strange as
it may seem, at the Harvard club,
the elis’ rotund gridiron tutor was
asked if the elimination of spring
practice would be harmful.
“Put it this way,” he replied.
“It won't help us any.”
BOSTON, Jan, 24—(AP)—The
stabilization of golfing rules is
urged by former national cham

“The 13 rules that were in ef
fect in Scotland in 1744 are just
as good today,” says Ouimet.
“The more we monkey with the
rules, the less fun the game will

Ouimet endorsed the unification

Jan. 1 and suggested *only Such
future changes as would become
absolutely necessary.”
