Littler In
Golf Lead
Las Vegas, Nev. (U.R) Gene
Littler opened up a 10-stroke
lead over the star-packed field
at the end of 34 holes in the
$37,500 tournament of cham
pions yesterday.
Clipping four strokes off par
in . a 30-mile-an-hour gale , that
sent scores skyrocketing in the
third annual event, Littler reach
ed the point where he can coast
in to the $10,000 first prize in
the final 18 holes today.
The former national amateur
champion, now playing out of
Palm Springs, Calif., shot some
of the finest golf of his career
today as he went out in 33 and
came back in an easy 35 on the
par 36-36-72 course.
In second place, with little
chance of ever catching up, is
Billy Maxwell, the Odessa, Tex.,
star, who had a 74 today for a
218 totl.
Following Maxwell came Bob
Toski, the world champion; and
Dr. Cary Middlecoff, recent win
ner of the Masters. They had
219, on rounds of 75 and 74,
respectively.
(SNEAD FAVORITI AGAIN Sam Snead approaches fh
j 17th hole at the Desert Inn course in Las Vegas, Ner., in
the Tournament of Champions. He was the favorite for the
third straight year. Sam was bought for $17,000 at the
Calcutta, highest total but $3000 less than he was bought
for last year. He finished the first round three over par 72.

away from clinching tha Rogue

Friday. At the same time Eagle
Point more firmly intrenched it
self in second position by wrest
ling an 11 to 10 verdict from

The Comets, who have won
four loop frays against no losses,
missed an opportunity to cinch
the pennant when a tangle with
the IV team set for yesterday
was postponed because of a mud
dy diamond at Central Point.
Crater was attempting to re
schedule the fracas for Monday.
Eagle Point's record is now
three wins and two defeats and
the Eagles still have an oppor
tunity to tie for the flag.
Fre dHerrman threw three hit

had errorless support from his
mates. The Comets offensively
bashed out 11 hits, four ;of them
doubles. '

third inning when Vern Parent
safetied, Iyman Stubbs two-bag-gered,
Neil Green was hit by a
pitch, Ken Bailey singled and
Harold Lefler clubbed a fielder's
choice rap. Donn Johnson
singled, Harvey Tonn sacrificed
and Parent hit for one base to
manufacture a run in the fourth
inning.
In the fifth for the other two
markers Bailey got on base on an
error, stolen second and Lefler
and Herrmann got back to back
doubles.
Johnson and Parent both hit
three for five in the contest and
Herrmann swatted two for four.
Herrmann whiffed six batters
and walked five while Neil, on
the mound for IV, struck outrl
three and walked two.
Eagle Point in the. Friday has
sle at Phoenix got five runs in
the second inning and two each

seventh.

Frank Reich, Dick Brown and
Bob Stewart all singled for the
Eagles in the fifth inning and
there were three Pirate errors.

the final frame when EP also
had a number of subs in the line
up. There was one error, an in
terference by catcher, a passed
ball and a double by Ron Bean
as the Pirates splurged. f
Phoenix player Jerry Nye suf
fered a broken nose when a ball

Swede Halbrook Suspended
From Oregon State College
Corvallis, Ore. (U.R) Wade
(Swede) Halbrook, Oregon
State's 7-foot, . 3-inch all-coast
basketball center, has been sus
pended from school, according
to an announcement yesterday
by E. B. Lemon, dean of admin
istration.
The high-point center was
written a letter Friday by Dr.
D. T. Ordeman, registrar, in
forming him of his suspension
effective Saturday for failure to
attend classes.
Halbrook, 22, was reported
out of town.
. Earlier, Coach A. T. (Slats)
Gill said he had been informed
by college authorities that his
star center was going to be suspended.
Coach Feels Bad
He said he felt "bad" about
the situation but that there was
nothing he could do about it.
He said it was up to college authorities.
Halbrook was suspended from
the Oregon State squad last win
ter for what Gill called "his
attitude." However, he was later
reinstated and led- the Beavers
to the Pacific Coast Conference
title.
Academic Troubles
Halbrook, who racked up 1005
points in two seasons second
highest in the school's history
also had academic troubles last
year and was not eligible to play
until winter term of the cur
rent school year.
The registrar's office said it
gets reports from professors
whenever a student is absent
from classes without reason for
more than a week. Apparently
several of these reports came to
the registrar's attention, bring
ing about the cancellation of
Halbronk's registration.
He would have to petition the
college and be approved befors
he could be readmitted. .

Oakland, Calif. (U.R) Chuck
Stevens' error on George Metko
vich's grounder opened the gate
for four Oakland runs in the
seventh inning that broke s 2-2
tie and helped the Oaks to an
11-3 victory over San Francisco
Saturday.
The Oaks added five more for
good measure in the eighth in
ning to provide righthander Karl
Drews with his" first win after
four straight losses. The win
gave the Oaks a 3-2 lead in the
series.
Stevens, Seal first baseman,
had tied the score at 2-2 in the
sixth with a 395-foot bases
empty circuit smash against the
centerf ield screen.
Drews went the route for the
first time this season, giving up
nine hits, striking out seven and
walking four.
