April 10. 19S0 Portland Beavers Win Doubieheader from Oakland; 1 to 0, 8 to 5 Demaret Wins Title At Masters Augusta, Ga., Apf. 10 (U.R) Jovial Jimmy Demaret today donned a crown that outdazzled even his own fancy paits the unprecedented triple champion' ship of the Masters' Golf tour nament. And as he did so, the crooning links veteran from Ojal, Cal., explained that he won the cov eted title for the third time be cause he was able to murder par on one particular hole the lucky, for him, 13th. Picks Ud Six As he marched around the course four times en route to his winning 283 total. Jaunty Jim my picked up six strokes on par on that particular noie witn iwo eagles and two pars. But the same 13th hole was a nightmare for Jim Fcrrier, the runner-up from ban Jfrancisco with a 285 total. For it was there that his fame fell apart in the final round as victory seemed assured he had five bogies in the last six holes to blow the tide although he reached the 13th three strokes ahead. For Ferrier it was one of the most heartbreaking defeats he has suffered while picking up a lot of money since coming here from Australia in 1940. Hogan Fails A sad sidelight was Ben Ho gan' failure to sustain his tor tured stamina after staying with in two strokes of the leader for three rounds. The comeback Ban tam, only three months back in competition after a year off due to a near-fatal accident, went up to 76 on his final round. Hogan tied for fourth with By ron Nelson, Roanoke, Tex., at 288, and Sam Snead, who never really figured although the pre tournament favorite was third with a 74 and 287.
