Ten inter-conference track meet.
The six won their crowns last
weekend in the NCAA test at Lns

day of Northwestern notching twin
triumphs in both dashes.
Despite the presence of Golli
day, the West Coast Stars were
favored heavily to rack up their
ninth triumph In the series, prim
arily because of overwhelming
strength in the field events and
an apparent wealth of middle
distance stars.
Ernie Shelton and Des Koch,
teammates on this year's South

considered virtual shoo-ins in the
high jump and discus. Shelton

Fleck Won Money
In 12 Tournaments
DAVENPORT, Iowa I Jack
Fleck, virtually unknown outside
his native Iowa until last week
stood beside the greats of golf
today.
But his fiery rise to claim the
U.S. Open golf championship last
week is not as surprising as it
first appears.
The 32-year-old professional
never won a major tournament
until Sunday. But until this pas!
year he limited himself to just
the winter circuit.
Won In 12
Making the full winter-summer
swing this year, he was a money
winner in 12 of the 15 important
tournaments he entered and av-Bi-aepd
71.21 strokes per round.
Fleck was 17 when he came in
golf and his career was cut short
by 34 years navy service curing
World War 11. tie servea uis ap
prenticeship in the club profes
sionals' category.
I'm from five to 10 thousand
rounds behind the others," he
says.
It was a new Jack Fleck who
won the ODen at San Francisco's
Olympic Club in a stirring playeff
with his idol, Ben Hogan. Fleck
and Hogan could be golfing broth
ers. Their cool, calculating manner
isms are similar. Jack admits ne
modeled some of his game after
Ben's. '
"I have idolized Ben Hogan ever
since my caddie days," he says.
Lovei Golf
. "He loves golf and the compe
tition and I love golf and the com
petition." Fleck and his pretty wife, Lynn,
made a decision shortly after their
marriage in 1950 that Jack would
give the professional tour a try to
see if he could ma.ee it.
"It cost us $8 for every $1 Jack
had won that season," Lynn con
fides. The Flecks still were in the
red as late as 1953.
"I didn't think he would make
it," she adds. But he learned to
control his "temperment" and
"I've every confidence in him
now."
That confidence is shared by
other Iowans who know him.
A Hunch
Joe Brown, pro at. the Des
Moines Golf and Country Club who
started Fleck out as a $5 a week
club cleaner in 1939, says:
"I had a hunch he'd win the
Open. I thought so because in the
past few meets Jack has had &
nice closing round."
Brown said Fleck "didn't know
anything about golf" when he
started. "But he was eager to
learn.
"I feel I still got a lot to learn
in golf," says the man who owns
the country s top golf prize.

The Eugene Emeralds were the
kingpins of Northwest League
baseball Tuesday and for the first
time the Wenatchee Chiefs found
themselves playing second fiddle.
The meralds, who moved into
contention only a week ago after
a slow start, installed themselves
in the throne room Monday night
after a 10-2 belting of the Chiefs.
It was the seventh loss in nine
starts for the Chiefs, who domi
nated the league through most of
the season and less than a month
ago held a 6 Vi-game bulge over
the field.
Salem also advanced in the
standings. The Senators slugged
Spokane 6-2 in the league's other
scheduled game and moved to with
in four percentage points of the
Chiefs and only a half game out
of first place.
The night's activities bunched

The Emeralds fashioned an eight
run fifth inning to topple Wenat
chee. Both teams went scoreless
until the fifth when Eugene cashed
in on the sudden wildness of Bob
Roberts for eight tallies on a sin
gle, four walks, a hit batsman,
an error and Ron Jackson's two
run double. ' ,
Manager Edo Vanni, who only
last week said he was "retiring
from the playing field forever," in
serted himself in the lineup and
whacked out a double that gave
Wenatchee its solo run in the seventh.
A crowd of 3.037, largest of tne
season, watched.
Bill Shields homered in the top
of the ninth at Spokane to pace
Salem to its victory over the In
dians. Salem's Red Whitson and
Spokane's Phil Page hooked up in
a tight pitching duel until Shields
nounded his tie-breaking homer,
The Senators went on to score
three more runs after that.
The Wenatchee-Eugene and Spokane-Salem
series continues Tues

four-game stand at Tn-City. Lew
