By Gale Talbot Chicago, June 22 (P) Little Ben Hogan, some 138 pounds of pure whipcord, finally crashed through to win that major golf championship which eluded him so long while he was busy win ning most of the money and otherwise establishing himself as the uncrowned king of the links. His victory In the Hale Amer ica tournament which ended yes terday at the Ridgemoor club was about as brilliant a feat at golf has seen. His total of 271 for the 72 holes shattered by 10 strokes the record for national open championship. On his sec ond round the dark, diminutive ecc-Texan shot an almost unbe lievable 62. Wins 11,100 Yet, Ironically, the supreme goal of every golfer still eludes Ben. His name will not appear in golf's record book as winner of the national open title. Be cause of the war, there will be no open tournament this year This was the closest thing to it, Hogan, though, was not in a mood to accept any sympathy after he had rolled in putts from all tort of distances to score his clinching 68 yesterday. Ben was the winner, the play er who pocketed first prize of $1,100. The "goat of the four- day event and there seems to be one in every tournament- was Jimmy Demaret, of Detroit The happy-go-lucky Jimmy needed only to shoot the last four holes in par to score a 88 on his final round and finish in a tie with Hogan for the title Instead, he went to pieces, drove like the rankest duffer on three consecutive holes and wound up in a tie with Mike Turnesa for second place with a total of 271.

' ATERST PHOTOS, 12 T0 1 TO SWEEP SERIES With Pvt Joe Dickinson of the U. S. army flinging a three hit masterpiece, the Medford Craters walloped San Francis co's Bear Photos, 12 to 1 here yesterday to sweep the two game series between the two clubs. The Craters captured the Saturday night affair, 14 to 12 Dickinson, who last year played in the American Associa tion and the Three-Eye league, completely handcuffed the Cali fornians with his blazing fast ball and razor-edge curve. One of the Photo hits was a "bleed er" into left field and their lone run was unearned. It came in the fourth inning when J. Lu- chessl singled to right but was forced at second as Don Mad den, after dropping Costa's fly. recovered In time to get L.u- ehessi at the keystone. Costa then stole second and continued to third on Catcher John John son's bad throw, and scored or. a passed ball. That run put the Photos In front 1 to 0 and with Cookie Pera, Photo righthander, mow ing down the Craters in capaDie fashion the tally looked bigger and bigger. But In the sixtn inning all Hades broke loose, and when the locals were through exploding Pera was out of the gsme and nit.e runs were in. That clinched the game but just to make certain the Craters whaled three more across in tne seventh off Bob Perret, who relieved Pera. Here Is the way that terrific sixth inning went for the Cra ters: with one out, Catherwood got life on Costa's bad throw to first and Manager Dutch Lle ber singled through third. Don Madden singled through the mtririU nrr.rlna Catherwood and John Gitzen walked, filling the! bases. Johnson singled to lelt and all three men scored when Gomes let the ball roll through his legs. Dickinson singled Johnson home and Jack Swa ryck tripled to deep rlsht-cen-ter scoring Dickinson. Worthley walked and out came Pera. Al Wray greeted Perret with a single scoring Swaryck, and Worthley tallied while Cather wood was grounding out. Lie ber got his second hit . of the inning, a seratcher to shortstop, and Wray scored on Madden's second single of the frame. Git zen forced Madden to end the wild stanza. Fourteen Craters batted dur ing the game-winning rally. Although they certainly man t need any more runs, the locals made it 12 to 1 In the seventh Johnson's single to center, Dickinson's sacrifice, Swaryck infield blow, a fielder's choice and Wray's triple to left. Saturday night's game was a fantastic affair, with the Craters pounding Pera out of the box in the first inning when they scored 10 runs, the Photos chop ping away until they went ahead, 12 to 10, and the locals finally getting three more runs in the fifth and one In the seventh to win. In the first inning, with the bases loaded, Al Wray blasted the first homer of the year in the fairgrounds park, a tremen dous clout over the left field wall. The Craters used four pitchers Steve Crlppen, Lie- ber, Al Wimer and Dickinson with Lieber getting credit for the victory although Dickinson had to come to his rescue with a scoreless four-inning stint.
