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

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.
