Nelson, McSpaden
Golf Favorites
CHICAGO, June 20 (UP) It
was the field against Byron Nel
son again today as 42 of the na
tion's lop golfers teed off in the
opening round of the $10,000 vic
try national open al Calumet
country club.
Nelson, golfdom's leading
money maker who has won 10
of the hut 16 major tournaments,
feared no man as much as he
feared the tricky greens on the
6.657-yard Calumet course.
"I just can't read those greens,"
he said, "and unless I start get
ting better I might as well go
home and read how McSpaden
does it."
Jug McSpadon, the Santord,
Me., putting artist and Nelson's
most persistent rival, is defend
ing champion in the open and
the one entry given a good chance
to beat Nelson. During the pre
liminary tournaments of the vic
tory nation, he made a 67, five
under par, to show his fondness
for the course.
The United States armed forces
and the Latin American countries
have created such a demand for
Bibles that Bible sales in 11144
broke all records. 12,403,541
Bibles were sold.
