AUGUSTA, Ga April 9
j Jimmy Demaret won his third,
I and record-breaking Masters Golf
tournament today after Jim Fer
rier had the title in his grasp and
threw it away. . j
Playing golf as sensational as
his Easter garb, Jimmy shot the
final round in 69 strokes, three
under par, for a 72-hole total of
183.
Ferrier, who started the day
with a two-stroke lead over the
field and four over Demaret, lost
it all on the last six holes. 1
Two under par at that stage,
ha went over on five of the next
Six ..to finish two strokes i behind
the; new champion with 285.
That made Demaret the first
golfer ever to win the Masters
three times: He took; the title, with
280 score in 1940 and repeated
with 281 In 1947. Only two others,
Horton Smith and Byron Nelson,
: have won twice.
Ben Hogin, regarded as Fer
rier' most serious challenges
when the - final round began,
couldn't hold , the pace, finishing
with a 76 for 288, even par fig
ures for the four rounds.
Par for the testing 6,900 yard
(LUgusta National course is 30
872. -v.!"
- Comparatively few of the crowd
' of 18,000. largest ever to watch
the Masters, saw Demaret score
his triumph. But they were all on
band when: Fernex lost.
SM - j . .
Mm aneaa, last years winner,
took third place with a last-round
71 for 287. Nelson, who had a 74
today, tied Hogan for fourth place,
Nobody else in the selected field
was even close to the winner.
Lloyd Mangrum of Chicago came
in with a 68 on the final round to
place sixth at 291 and Open
Champion . Cary Middlecoff of
Orroond Beach, Fla., and Clayton
Heather of Charlotte. N. C had
ISrs. :! I . '
Undisturbed by the crowd. De
ma ret played the steadiest golf of
the tournament to win. He had
rounds of 70, 72, 72 and 69, which
Included eleven three-putt greens.
But Jimmy was long and straight
off the tee, an important factor
en this big. rolling rourse.
- He was under par four times
In a row on the 480-yard 13th
hole, one of the longest on the
course, and twice scored eagles

21 National Titles
Six Women Golfers
Enter Mall of Fame
AUGUSTA, Ga., April 9 -W- Six of America's greatest women
golfers have been selected for the Ladies P.G.A. Hall of Fame.
Together, the great stars of yester-years won 21 national amateur
championships and some of their records likely never will be ap
proached.
Charter members of the Hall of
Fame are:
Beatrix Hoyt of New York,
Margaret Curtis of Boston; Alexa
Stirling, a native of Atlanta, Ga.,
the late Dorothy Campbell Hurd
of Scotland who came to Pitts
burgh from Scotland, Glenna Col
lett Vare of Philadelphia, and Vir
ginia Van Wie of Chicago.
Original plans: called for the
naming of two active golfers.
However, the committee decided
that retired links stars should be
honored first Two additional
golfers will be named annually.
Beatrix Hoyt was the first win
ner of the National Amateur
championship held at match play
in 1896. She repeated in 1897
and 1898.
- Miss Margaret Curtis won three
national amateurs in 1907, 1911
and 1912.
' Alexa Stirling won the amateur
three times in succession and was
runner; up her fourth try. Her
victories came In 1916, 1919 and
1920. No amateurs were held
during the first World War.
Dorothy Campbell Hurd won in
1909, 1910 and 1924.
Glenna Collett Vare probably
has the great record of them all.
She won the amateur six times
between the early 1920's and mid
193 0's. r Virginia jVan Wie won in
1932, 19S3 and 1934.
