Fleck Competing For PGA
Crown; 134 Enter Field
Northville, Mich. (U.R)
Not since Ben Hogan turned the
trick in 1948 has anyone swept
both the National Open and PGA
titles in the same year but Jack
Fleck, the former farm boy from
Davenport, la., will have high
hopes of completing the "double"
when he tees off Wednesday in

tournament.
Fleck, 32-year-old pro at two
municipal courses in Davenport,
leaped from the ranks of the
unknown last month with a dra
matic playoff victory over Ben
Hogan for the National Open
crown at San Francisco.
And he figures his steady, un
spectacular-game could carry
him a long way in the gruelling
seven-day PGA testfh!ch
swings into jj-V-rfIay' after
two day Oalifying.

ammin' Sammy Snead, of
White Sulphur Springs. W. Va.;
Dr. Cary Middlecoff, Kiamesha

Franklin, Mich., and defending
champion Chick Harbert the host
pro, rule as co-favorites among
the 134 who will start the week-
long event.
Withdrawals have trimmed the
field by eight with such top
players as Julius Boros, South

Niles, 111.; Bob Toski, Miami,

land, plus former champions
Johnny Revolta, Skokie, 111.;
Olin Dutra, Los Angeles, and
Paul Runyan,, La Jolla, Calif.,
pulling out for various reasons.
The PGA winner will pick up
a check for $5,000 but victory
in this tournament is actually
worth almost 10 times that
much. Exhibitions and endorse

Scheduled in
RVCC Hassle
It's George Harrington against
Harry Millette and Ivan Har
rington against Bob Rasmussen
this week in semi-finals of the
men's club championship golf
tournament at Rogue Valley
Country club here.
George Harrington, back after
having played last week in the
PScific Northwest Golf associa
tion tourney at Seattle, defeated
Wendy Wissler in a quarter-final
match yesterday while Millette
spilled Larry Butler 4 and 3 on
Saturday. In action earlier last
week Ivan Harrington won 2
and 1 from Clayton Lewis and
Rasmussen 3 and 2 over Bob
Rector.
Semi-final tussles in the cham
pionship and first flights and fi
nals in other flights are to be
completed by next Sunday eve
ning. Honors in the ninth brack
et already have been decided
with Darrell Miller beating E.
K. Ricker 3 and 2.
Ivan Vins Sweepstakes
In the first flight quarter-finals
Wilsie Pruitt defeated Paul
Lacanette 3 and 2, Bill Catey
downed Don Wood 1 up. Carl
Schmidt won from Russ Heysell
by default and Roy Gilbertson
from Dick Knight 2 and 1. Semi
finals are Pruitt against Catey
and Schmidt against Gilbertson.
In Saturday ball sweepstakes
Ivan Harrington was low grqss
with 78 and George Schuler low
net with 68. Second low net
score was a tie between Justin
Smith Sr. and Bud Judy with
70s. . There was a four-way tie
for third low count. George Rob
erts, Jack Sanborn, Bin Catey
and Ray Wise netted 71s.
Fourth low card was Wilsie
Pruitt's 72. 1
Al Althens and Larry Butler
tied for first blind bogey and
Nelson Gallant and Gain Robin
son for second blind.
Bill Askwith, Studs' business
manager, said the local nine has
a good chance to win by a great
er margin.
Good Ball Club
He pointed out, however, the
Eagles have a good ball club and
is one of fastest running teams
the Studs have met this year.
Since the last encounter with
the Eagles, the Studs have made
changes in their lineup and have
a new manager, Jack Cooney,
who probably will start at first
base in tomorrow's contest.
Either Marv Scherpf or Jim
Kelly probably will start on the
mound for the Studs with either
Dick Wooten or Howard Morris
behind the plate.
Probable Lineup
The rest of the probable line
up includes Cooney at first, Ed
McCullough at second, Bob Sel
sor at short stop, and Derald
Wooten at third. The outfield
will be picked from Terry Mad
dox, Ron Maurer, Larry Bing
ham, Gordon Carrigan, Bill Mc
Lean and Harvey Tonn.
Anderson probably will be
hurling for the Eagles, who are
in second place in the Northern
California League. Tony Fe
minis, team manager, or Mc
Gregor probably will do the
catching for Mt. Shasta.

Padres Move
Half -Game
Up In PCL
By UNITED PRESS
The San Diego Padres climbed
back a half-game toward their
old spot at the top of the Pacific
Coast League last night, and
they're hoping the Oakland Oaks
will , give them another half-
game boost today.
If their hopes are realized,' the
Padres will move in against
league-leading Seattle Thursday
trailing the Rainiers by only half
a game. . '
San Diego was involved in the
only game played last night, and
the Padres see-sawed their way
to a 4-3 victory over the San
Francisco Seals. It was a contest
of wild pitching, but John Car
michael managed to survive for
his 10th win of the year against
five defeats.
and a wild pitch by San Fran
cisco starter Tony Ponce, but the
Seals bounced back with two
runs in the fourth on two walks,
single and. a wild throw by
shortstop Buddy Peterson.
The Seals evened.it at 3-3 in
the seventh, but San Diego broke
the deadlock in their half on a
single, an error by relief pitcher
Steve Nagy, and a sacrifice fly.
Nagy took his seventh loss
against three, wins.
San Diego and San Francisco
will be idle tonight, but Holly

Seattle meets Oakland, and Los
Angeles plays Portland.
