U.f) The Professional Golfers' asso ciation announces big plans for boosting the purse and changing the dates for the annual Bing Crosby charity clambake but if you ask Larry Crosby about the program, he just shakes his head. J. Edwin Carter, tournament bureau manager for the PGA, says he has a sponsor who will add an additional $25,000 in money for the pro division to add to the $15,000 that Der Bin pie puts up. And Carter would like to change the dates to Octo ber or November, when the weather would be better. Charity Benefitted "I don't know anything about it," says Larry Crosby, Bing's manager. "But as far as I'm con cerned, we'll keep the tourna ment as it is right now. "After all, charity netted about $30,000 from the event this year, plus $10,000 from ad vertisements In the program. How can anyone complain about that?" Besides, he pointed out, "there are other people in Monterey to be considered." He indicated that business was good for hotels and motels in the Monterey area during Octo ber and November and that the Crosby clambake during Janu ary helped take up the slack. Some of the touring profes sionals have indicated year after year that they won't return to Pebble Beach in January be cause of the weather. Good Test for Golf For several years now there have been winds of gale velocity accompanied by lashing rains that almost sweep the golfers off the course. "That's just another good test of golf," says Peter Hay, the old Scotchman who is professional at Pebble Beach. Some of the "follow the sun" boys don't care much for play in that type of weather but most of them, out of friendship for Bing, come and play, any way. Seven men this year, led by Doug Ford, defected to play in the Panama City Open. But the field still was strong. "We're happy with the tour nament the way it is right now," Larry said, "we get good crowds. Bing likes to have it in Janu ary and rile charities all seem to like the money they get. What more can I say?" SPORTS BOWLING SENIOR LEAGUE Last week started a new half for the Saturday Senior Junior Bowling league. Two splits were picked.
