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.
