Joe Conrad Wins British Amateur St. Annes, England (U.R) Lt. Joe Conrad, a 25-year-old Air Force officer from San An tonio, Tex., won the British Am ateur Golf championship Satur day when he broke Alan Slater's brilliant rally with an 18-foot putt on the 27th hole and went on to defeat the Englishman 3 and 2. Conrad Is the 10th American to win the two-foot high silver trophy since Jesse Sweetser first captured it for the United States in 1926. The young Texan also gave the U. S. its sixth triumph in the 10 renewals held since the end of World War II. And he did it on his first appearance on an English course, a feat that es caped the great Bobby Jones. Jones won the title on his third try in 1930, the year he made his grand slam of the 3ritish and U. S. Ameateur and Open crowns. Conrad led 4 up after the morning 18 and boosted his mar gin to five holes by winning the first hole of the afternoon round. But Slater, a 36-year-old "weekend golfer" who reached the final by ousting four current or former U. S. or British Walk er Cup stars, won four of the next seven holes and halved the three others to cut that margin to 1 up. And when Slater dropped a 20-foot putt or 'a birdie two on the 27th, it appeared he was set to climax his brilliant rally by taking charge of the faltering Texan. But Conrad, who said he had released pressure during the match by giving "a little whistle before each putt," sank an 18 footer to match Slater's birdie and hold his slim lead at the last turn. Lt. Joe Conrad of San Anton io, Tex., who won the British Amateur Golf tournament Sat urday, was the man Phil Get chell, Medford, Ore., upset 2 and BASQUEZ VICTOR Stockton, Calif. (U.R) Jaime Basquez, 142 -pounder from Stockton and Honolulu, battled San Francisco's Gil Cadilli to a 10-round draw Friday night at Civic Memorial Auditorium. Ca dilli, nationally known for his controversial television bout with Willie Pep, was a slight favorite, but Basquez kept him off balance with a stiff left jab.. Referee Pete Morelli, the sole judge, scored four rounds to each man and two even. San Diego's Angels, Seattle Win Games San Diego, Calif. (U.R) League-leading San Diego snap ped a 7-7 tie with two runs in the eighth inning to win a slug fest from Oakland, 9 to 7, in a Pacific Coast league contest Ashenfelter Sets New Two Mile Record at Compton Compton, Calif. (U.R) Hor ace Ashenfelter of the New York Athletic club today held a new American two-mile record which overshadowed what Campton In vitational Meet officials had billed as one of the great mile races of track and field history. Ashenfelter, an Olympic Games steeplechase champion, stepped off the eight laps Fri day night in 8:49.6, which is not only the fastest ever by an American but also the swiftest ever stepped on American soil. Mile in 4:01.2 The 16th annual event's fea ture, the one-mile run, failed to produce an under-four-minute-mile as Wes Santee turned in a 4:01.2 clocking. Bobby Season, a UCLA sophomore stole the show in the mile by finishing a step behind Santee in 4:01.4. Santee's effort failed to break his own Compton Invitational mark of 4:00.6, set last year. His fastest mark is 4:00.5, estab lished at the Los Angeles Colise um last year.
