BY NELSON TURNS
ON HEAT TO JUMP
TO SECOND PLACE
Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 1 OJ.R)
Byron Nelson, Toledo, O.,
turned on the heat In the second
round of the $13,333 Nashville
open today and shot a seven-undcr-par
64 to jump from 17th
to second place, only three
strokes back of his long time
rival, Ben Hogan.
Playing an unbeatable brand
of golf, Nelson started the round
auspiciously with an eagle three
on the 513-yard par five hole.
He missed putts for birdies on
the next three but finished the
nine sensationally with three
birdies on the last five holes,
marred by a bogoy on the par
three eighth for a 33, four under
par.
On the second nine, the for
mer Texas caddie blrdicd three
holes, playing the others In reg
ulation figures. Always a master
of his irons, Nelson was par
ticularly accurate today, nailing
the ball to the pin time and
again from anywhere within 200
yards of the green.
But little Ben Hogan, Hershoy,
Pa., still was fop man, finishing
the second round with a 67 over
the par 72, Richland course for
a 36hole total of 131 compared
to Nelson's 134. Hogan, display
ing all the talent for which he
was known before the war, shot
a 64 yesterday while Nelson slip
ped to a 70.

BASEBALL TREAT
AT
Medford's biggest baseball
treat in several years comes to
i the Fairgrounds park tomorrow
! night when the Fort Lewis War- i
I riors cross bats with the South-
trn Oregon All-Stars, made up
of players from the Klamath
I Falls Naval Air Station, Klamnth
Falls Marine Barracks and the
Medford Craters.
The Warriors have several big
league stars on their roster;
holders of major league con
tracts but now doing time in the
armed service of their country.
Beat PCL Teams
Fort Lewis recently took on
Oakland and Los Angeles of the
Coast League in a double header
and emerged on the long end of
3-1 and 5-3 scores. Portland, i
currently heading the coast loop, !
has extended a cold shoulder to i
invitations to face the Warriors. ;
Warrior officials claim they have
three times had games sched
uled with the Seattle Rainiers
only to have the coast leaguers
cancel out each time.
Gale Bishop, Washington State
basketball great, is one of the
few Warriors who does not hold
a big league contract. But
Bishop has been watched closely
this year by Joe Devine of the
New York Yankees who pro-;
nounces him as a sure-fire major ;
leaguer at second base.
Kelleher In Lineup
Frank Kelleher, who led the
Coast league with 30 home runs
last season while with the Holly
wood Stars, is another who is
not in the top circuit but can
go up to the big time whenever
he chooses. Ford Mullen, under
contract to the Philadelphia
Phillies, Is an ex-University of
Oregon star. Don Johnson,
speed-ball pitcher with the New
York Yankees, is a former Port
land Legion player and was a
diamond star at Jefferson high
school in Portland.
Paul Freer, who will manage
the All-Stars, said he will start
Pat Patterson of the Navy, him
self a speed ball chucker, on the
hill with "Bo" Bogarski, Ma
rines, doing the receiving.
Cliff Proctor, president of the
Medford Athletic association,
sponsors of the game, said there
will be an increase in admission
prices due to the added cost of
bringing the Warriors to Med
ford. Baseball Scores
