' LAV-.- The Oregon High Schools Activities association, the outfit that controls all high school athletic activities in case you aren'k already aware of it, has in our mind, and the minds of our fellow pros in the state, pulled another of its famous boo-boos. l3I Braay Mini Open could be interpreted as an entry in a team event is beyond our comprehension. And we're not alone. This year's tourney rolled along in fine shape until very near the end. Tha Hawes made his entrance. With the fine art of detecting well within his control, Hawes launched his work of trying to prove every boy in the tourney as being in eligible. Some had played in the respective club tourneys at home. Others had participated- ia such as weekend sweep stakes at their respective clubs. Some had played ia Pro Sweep, stakes, which of course was the wrong thing to do. But nrav tell what is wrong with a boy meeting the leaders of his community on the golf course in a club amateur tournament,. with hi school activities? The first place team this year was Eugene High. had settled down and several 01 medalist, had been evicted from the meet. No one seems 10 snow at the present time who actually did win the state championship, because when time came to announce the winner it was decided by the OSAA that a bit more investigatibn was in order. So at the present time we championship team and no state the taxpayers have paid lor, are ering oust. Great deal! . . . Hogan's Secret a Headache for Pro In the past week or so we have seen more big, ft sUcet hit off the first tee than ever before. Now it comes U us why this is occurring. Thase guiltv have been reading Ben Hogan's "Secret," published recently.. But what Bennie forgot to stress strongly enough in his article is that his secret is for the strong left-handed prayer who plays right-handed. If the average player were to follow Ben's advice to the letter he would need more right fingers than he could afford gloves for, Hogan's trick is to him a great thing, but to the teaching pros it is a nightmare. We spend our every waking hour trying to teach the players to keep the face of the club closed, and in one short article Bennie says we have not been correct He is correct for his personal stroke, because his left arm is so strong. But that sort of thing is not for the duffer. " If you wairt to learn something from Hogan's article, study the position of his hands at the top of the backswing in the ' picture when he is not using his secret That would eure any slice and probably result in a straight shot for you . . .

If you will recall, Salem's Bob Prall and sev eral other prominent young golfers were declared ineligible to play in the state tourney in 1954 be cause thev played in the Oregon Open.

Yet the current crop of all-stars, coached by an all-pro staff, per haps has made one of the most in tensive preparations in the 22 game series and has the talent to spring a surprise. Work On Defense All-star coach Curly Lambeau and Ms assistants especially have concentrated on defense, working on a theory that to cope with rival behemoths,- you have to have be hemoths yourself. Line coaches Hunk Anderson and Steven Owen can field an all-star defensive unit which would out weigh the Browns' best unit, six pounds to a man. And the all-star line just isn't big. It moves and it battles. Lambeau also handDicked a sec- bndary defense which is quick and aiert ana may piay an lmponani role when the Browns George Rat - terman rolls out Cleveland's dead- ly aerial game. In last weekend s Scrimmage against the Chicago , Cardinals, the all-star secondary grabbed off a half dozen Card passes. Guglielmi Set As for the attack, itself, Notre Dame's Ralph Guglielmi probably will be the chief collegiate trigger man, but Oregon's George Shaw, California's Paul Larson and Ohio State's Dave Leggett also are splendid passing quarterbacks. The all-star backs have speed in Dick Moegle of Rice, Joe Heap of Notre Dame. Marquette's Ron Drzewiecki. and Baylor S L. G. Dupre and power in the likes of Wisconsin's Alan Ameche, Mary- Mel Triplett. Coach Lambeau has a flock of good pass receivers, but the "mon- Race'Erased til safety precautions for specta tors can be worked out." The Pan-American Road Race Board announced that the govern ment considered it prudent' that the race be suspended for the pur . pose of safety. Seven drivers were j killed in the 1954 race. ! Mans This year's Pan-Am was sched uled for Dec. 2-5. There was no in dication whether the classic, termed by veteran drivers the toughest and most dangerous of all, would be resumed next year.
