They feel he should be playing in his own organization's tourna ment now that the 41st annual I'UA championship starting here Thursday is a one-round a-dii y event. They argue, loudly, that he owes the PGA a debt of gratitude for giving him the chance to be come famous in golf. And they are extremely bitter that, he turned down a iiersonul appeal to lend the magic of his name to help rebuild the prestige of a tournument which for sever al years has been hanging on the financial ropes. "We asked him to play here us a matter of business," comment ed one PGA official. "Sure, we need his name at the gate. But he told us 4ie doesn't play from the U.S. Open until January and also that he was busy re-styling his clubs. Too Busy for Debt? "How busy can you be?" he asked heatedly.

Hogan in l!H8 scored a rare double accomplished only once be fore in history, by Gene Sarazen in 1922, when he won the U.S. Open and the PGA. He was injured critically in February of 1949 and since then has passed up the PGA on the grounds that it was too arduous in his physical condition with its douole match play rounds each day and 36-hule semi-finals and fi nals. But last year it was changed f:om match play to medal play and there now is only one round per day. In the Open he must play two rounds on the final day. more physically demanding even than the PGA. Three Titles Since Accident Since his accident. Hogan has come on to win three more U.S. OiH'n chamionships for a total of four which ties the record held by Willie Anderson aid Bobby Jones. Now he plays not only h the 0en shooting for a record fifth but also in the Masters and the Colonial Invitation "1 can understand him wanting and trying for a record fifth in the Open,-' says Wally Xlund. for mer PGA vice president "But if he can play in the Masters and the Colonial, I. for one. ca:i't un derstand why he passes up the PGA. We are honing that he would come here. We need him. "And he shouldn't forget," Mund added grimly, "that he needs us. He sells his c'uhs Well. there is such a thing as reciproc ity and it works two ways" The PGA championship does need Hogan cs an attraction. There are all loo few colorful pros today, primarily because for years the PGA has failed to build up its players. In the old days, Fred Corcoran, now tournament manager of the International Golf Assn.. made a career of publicizing and building up (he players. After he left, the PGA coasted publicity-wise and and fabled old guard is passing on leaving good players but most of them "unknowns" without attraction value.
