Nelson Returns
For 'Masters'
Hogan, Demaret Made
Favorites in Tourney
AUGUSTA, Ga., April l.-P)-Byron
Nelson, who won the mas
ters golf tournament here twice in
past years, comes out of retire
ment Thursday for. the 11th an
nual event to find two. other ex
Texans established as -the favor
ites Ben Hogan and Jimmie De
maret Hogan, twice the runner up here
last year and in a 1942 playoff
with Nelson has been here two
weeks getting in some long prac
tice sessions. Demaret, the 1940
king of the fairways and the mas
ters winner, that year, apparently
is back at the peak of his game.
He and Hogan have won the lion's
share of the' honors, in r e c en t
months. Hogan led the money win
ners las year with something over
$42,000 and Demaret is pacing the
pack at, present.
. Sharing a sort of "darkhorse"
.role with Nelson, is Bobby Locke,
the South African champion who
reached New York by plane today
with Sammy Snead, currently the
British . open ..champion, i. Locke

Dragons Name Barclay
HOOD RIVER, Ore, April
Raloh E., Barclay, athletic coach
at Western Illinois State Teachers'
college for the past 12 years, was
named . Hood River . high school
football and basketball coach to
day. ; He succeeds Walter Buett
genbach who resigned after putting-
hts football team in the state
high school championship play
offs and his basketball team in
third place in the state tourney
this year. .
weeks back, climaxes a sizeable
33-round show produced by the
village VFW's and . Matchmaker
Tex Salkeld, same starting at 8:30
o'clock. The armory gates go open
at 7:30, and one of the larger
crowds of the winter-spring sea
son is anticipated. The advance
sale A of ducats, at no hike in
prices despite " the spangles
donned by the evening's iare, has
been good.
Held to a tie by the counter
punching negro , swifty the last
time after beating him in 10 heats
in Portland last year, Richards
comes prepared this time with
what he claims is "a new offense
to stop Lacey's counter punching
-and clinching." Richards has been
hard at work , on It for three
weeks, the same length of. time
the Eddie Thomas, sharpshooter
has been honing down "to the
best fighting condition of my life."
Both must enter the ring at no
more than 126 pounds, which
"will be made easily," according
to managers of each gladiator.
Should there be no knockout, a
decision will be handed down by
Referee Packy McFarland and
specially appointed Judges Harry
Collins and Frank Saunders. It is
to be a "no draw" fight, finding
Lacey. the favorite at 10-8 odds.
Lacey's most recent outing, in
Eugene week before last, netted
him a sixth-round kayo of Duane
Hoag. '
Although the' top shot may not
end in a kayo, the "winner take
all" six-round semi featuring Sa
lem' Dick Abney and Denver'
Ray Garcia probably will. Abney
flattened the Mexican in five
ding-dong stanza three weeks
ago and Intends repeating the
process, only sooner. The wild
swinging Mex will mako a battle
of it, however, and should he find
the rang on Richard' chin, good
bye Abney win streak.
Th three four-round prelims
line up in the following order:
Hal Fries, ' Salem, vs. -Veteran
Johnny . Archuleta, Denver, with
Fries making his local debut in
the featherweight clash. Glenn
King, Portland vs. Nick Burley,
Portland, middleweights. Ralph
