But out there under the blaz ing sun, fighting pain and par and heat and hazards, came Ho gan. For a time it looked like the tiny Texan might take it all. But it was just too much to ask of this little man who captured America's most coveted golfing prize in 1948 and then almost losa his life in an automobile accident in February of 1849. Old Will Payi Off Not since returning to the golf wars this vear had Hogan played 36 holes in one day. But now he had to, and only that old will 10 win brought him home in a dead heat. For after the first 18 holes this morning, he barely was able to get his shoes back on to his swollen feet. Finally he made, and started the long journey through the heat and the largest crowd in open history, 12,500 tcne and 1 feverish fans. i 7144 ... 15113 Tohey and The llneacorei: Eugene Redding Chane and Yanchuk: inoiiaaioa.
