AAU national tournament at
Boston. Following the tourna
ment, Tim Monohan of the Bos
ton Traveler wrote, "Echols, a
smiling Irish-Indian, was prob
ably the straightest puncher in
the tournament and one of the
toughest. Hitting with either
hand, he has a killer instinct to
finish his opponents and fights
harder when hurt himself."
"He's the best fighter I have
seen in this tournament since
Joey Maxim won in 1938." stated
South Boston's Tommy Sullivan.
Quiet Out of Ring
Out of the ring Echols is said
to be quiet and shy but in the
ring he is a straight-up, lightning
fighting machine who s p 1 a t s
rights and lefts until his oppon
ent drops. One of his faults is
said to be overanxiousness but
he's learned that boxing is a give
and take deal. He has been on
the losing end of but five of his
62 bouts and has never been
knocked out which is more than
24 of hi opponents can say.
In meeting Halsev Echols
will be up against a bobbing and
weaving mixer who carries dyna
mite in either fist and will be all
out to keep his record of no
losses in Medford intact. "It's
my lucky town," Halsey says.
Outstanding Card
Burdette said an outstanding
supporting card will be offered
with the first match to go on at
8:30 p.m. There will be but one
intermission, lust before the
main event, Burdette said, add
ing that the next fighters will
move into the ring immediately
upon completion of the previous
bout. The step is being made to
speed up the program, a fault
which has drawn some com
plaint on previous cards.

Comeback Ben Hogan, just a
little more than 16 months out
of what looked like his deathbed.
was Mr. Golf again today and
the performance charts and beat
en Lloyd Mangrum admitted It.
Hogan is the greatest golfer
in the world."
In those words. Mangrum
shrugged off the "little green
bug" which cost him two vital
strokes and any chance he might
have had to win the CSoldcn An
niversary National Open. For
Mangrum, along witli George
Fazio, died in Morion's "death
valley" late yesterday afternoon.
Course Treacherous
That death valley covers the
final four holdes of that rugged.
treacherous course, one which
proved much too tough for the
other 163 golfers who teed off
in the first round Thursday.
But not too touch for com
petitive men. He didn't need any
breaks, he won this one on his
own and it made him feel "even
better than I did when I won
my first open back in 1948 at
the Riviera Country club at Los
Angeles."
This was my biggest thrill,
he said, "and I'm really awfully
glad that those two strokes Lloyd
lost on that 16th green penalty
didn't make the difference. He's
a great golfer and a fine guy
and the last one in the world
who would try to take advan
tage of anyone. But he broke a
rule, and took it like a man. and came out short. But he
I'm glad for him. and for me. chipped to within 15 feet of the
that it didn't figure in the final J pin. Just as he was about to
outcome."
69 for Hogan
That outcome was a 69. one
under par, for Hogan; a 73 for
Mangrum and a 75 for Fazio
in their 18-hole playoff for the
open championship. They had
tied at the end of the 72 holes
of regulation play Saturday
with 287s.
Mangrum, who like Hogan
was shooting for his second open

title, was scrambling all the way.
But with a lot of putting luck,
he was only one strike down to
Bantam Ben Fazio was four
down as they teed off for the
itun noie.
On the 15th, the start of a
golfer's nightmare, Mangrum
had shot a birdie three to mit
him back in the running.
Then came that big 16th. Ho
gan put his second shot on the
green of the par four 445-yard
hole. Mangrum had sliced his
drive to the left in the rough
putt he noticed that "little green
bug" on his ball. He swung hi
puotter over the ball, hoping
to wave off the bug. But he
failed. So without thinking ha
picked up the ball, blew off the
bug, put it back down and pro
ceeded to sink the putt.
Violated Rule
It looked then like his par
halved the hole with Hogan;
for Ben had needed two putta
to get down.
But Isaac T. Grainger, chair
man of the United States Golf
association rules committee,
came right up and advised Man
grum he was being penalized
two strokes for picking up the
ball "while in play."
"But that didn't make any
difference," said Mangrum later.
"You just can't beat a guy like
Hogan. They can talk about Bob
by Jones and golfers like that,
but for my money. Hogan's the
best and that's all there is to it."
