Putt-puti
sweeping
By Oscar Fraley I
UPI Staff Wrlt.r
NEW YOItK (LTD - The golf j
pros have a saying that you
drive for fun but you putt for
dough and now they are add-1
ing that you also can putt-putt
for dough.
Putt-putt golf is the newest sport
sweeping the country, with some
330 courses to be in operation by
next year. It's a putting game
which is differentiated from mini
ature golf by the fact that the
courses are uniform and have
none of the barrel and windmill
tricks which made miniature golf
as skillful as a pinball game.
And in putt-putt golf skill will
pay of! some $42,000 in prize
money in 1961.
Not only that, but some 30 tour
ing pros of the putter will make
the circuit on a tournament wheel
extending from Orlando, Fla.,
through Atlanta, Durham, Arling
ton, Va., Cincinnati, Long Island,
Knoxville, Baton Rouge, El Paso
and Los Angeles.
Neil Connor, a Greenville, N.C.,
college boy, won the national
putt-putt championship this year
by turning six rounds 26 under
par, which is some putting when
you figure that the holes average
32 feet with a par of two. He
picked up $2,000 for the victory.
Frank Holt of Savannah, Ga.,
was the leading money winner of
the Professional Putters Associa
tion with $4,101 in 14 tournaments.
Stanford U
lineman wins
UPI award
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -Despite
the battering which Stan
ford's winless legions have ab
sorbed so far this year, they al
ways can count on Jack Butler
to move in and try to shove the
enemy in the other direction.
Butler, a 204 pound junior from
Houston, Tex., earned the United
Press International's lineman of
the week award last Saturday
with a stirring display of defense
against powerful Oregon.
Working as a middle lineback
er, he was rated in some quarters
as the best lineman on the field
as he rushed to numerous trouble
spots and tried to contain the
Ducks' rapid advance. Late in the
game, which Oregon won 27-6, he
had to leave with a bad shoulder.
"He played a fine game and
deserves recognition," coach Jack
Curtice said afterward. "He calls
our defensive signals and has been
a real good boy. Yet we didn't
quite know where we would play
him before the season opened."
Butler also had good afternoons
against Wisconsin and Washington
State, Curtice said.
Jack, a junior, entered Stanford
as a back but went into the line
after a rash of injuries hit the
club. He didn't see any varsity
action until after the first six
games of last season. Now Cur
tice is more than pleased to have
him around.
Bill Kilmer, UCLA's triple
threater, won the UPI's Back of
the Week award off his great
showing Saturday as Uie Bruins
were defeating the Bears, 28-0.
During the game, Kilmer scored
twice, rolled up 225 yards running
and passing and got off three
quick kicks which averaged bet
ter than 51 yards.

He averaged 33 strokes against
par of 36.
Once Played Tailback
"By 1965 we will hold the big
gest money tournament ever seen
anywhere in the world," asserts
Don Clayton, a former University
of North Carolina athlete who
fathered putt-putt golf.
Clayton preceded "Choo Choo"
Charley Justice as the Tarheel
tailback and, he says with a
country boy grin, "1 don't know
how it is they remember him and
nobody remembers me."
But he is deadly serious when
it comes to putt-putt golf.
"Let's look at it this way," he
argues. "This is like in track and
field. You wouldn't say a man
isn't an athlete because he runs
the dashes instead of the mile.
Well, millions of people putt, and
with tremendous skill, even
though they can't be a Sam
Snead because they aren't gifted
with the strength or ability to hit
a long ball. Sam is the decath
lon star of golf. But putting is a
sport, too."
Clayton was a successful busi
ness man when ulcers forced him
to take a rest in 1954. He tried
miniature golf "where a child
could do as well as Snead," and
then built his own un-tricked putt
ing course. Soon he had three.
Then people began to ask how to
build them.
Starts Tournament Play
So tiie tall, handsome Claylon
went into business franchising
courses and supplying equipment.
His principal aim was to "keep
out the fast buck, carnival type."
By last year there were 260 in
operation from coast to coast
with 70 more being built.
Then he came up with the idea
for tournament play. The first
was a city-wide affair in his na
tive Fayetteville, N.C. By 1957,
the first national putt-putt cham
pionship drew 126 sectional en
tries and the winner received a
Cadillac.
"But kids heading for college
were risking their eligibility when
we started giving cash prizes,
with $2,000 to the winner, in
19o9, Clayton explains, so we
formed a professional putters as
sociation for those over 18. To
qualify you must play 10 rounds
under 40 strokes. And now we
have 1,000 members in 27 states
Now the hot-shot putt-putt pros
make the whole tournament cir
cuit set up by the putt-putt pro
prietors and the five leading
money winners even did four half
hour television shows this fall, i
"I'm a five handicap golfer and
I can't begin to putt with these
guys," Clayton insists.
For a man with my slice off
the tee, it sounds like the sport
for which I've been looking.
