Box Again
New York U.F: Officials of
Flower Fifth Ave. hospital ex
pressed hope today that an eye
operan performed on Sandy
Saddler will enable the former
world featherweight champion
to resume Voxing.
Saddler underwent a "most
successful" operation for a de
tached retina in his right eye
Monday afternoon.
The injury forced the New
York fighter's retirement from
the ring on Jan. 22 after he had
held the featherweight title
since Sept. 8, 1950. Saddler
claims he suffered the eye injury
in an auto accident last summer.
Hospital officials said, "We
hope and expect Saddler will be
able to return to fighting, but,
of course, at this time we can
not say definitely he will be able
to. That depends on the healing
process."

OKEH, SO FAR Brooklyn Dodgers' manager Walter
Alston (left) examines the right hand of catcher Roy
Campanella at the Dodgers' spring training camp at Vero
Beach, Fla. Campanella took swings at the ball and re
ported no pain in the right hand on which a bone-chip
operation was performed last November. After the first
"live" batting practice, Alston said, "Campy hit the ball
pretty good. If I had to judge from what I saw today,
I'd say he was all right"
to 1:00
000 Houston Open.
Palmer's first prize of 87,500
was stacked haphazardly for him
in cash in a silver punch bowl
as he walked off the 18th green
with a one-stroke victory over
Doug Ford, the veteran from
Mahopac, N. Y., who has been
the leading money winner on the
winter tour.
Palmer, nine-under par at 279
for the 72 holes, sank a 15-foot
par putt on the 18th. Ford bird
ied the hole to take second
prize of $4,000.
Veteran Jimmy Demaret and
youngsters Gerie Bone and Bob
Harris, the front-runners after
the third round, slipped badly
over the sloshy back nine of the
7,200-yard course.
Harris Third
Harris, Winnetka, 111., fin
ished third with a 35-38-73 for a
281 total. Demaret, a favorite
son now playing out of Kiame
sha Lake, N. Y., also had a 35-38-73
for a 282 total for fourth
place.
The fate that befell Bone could
be classed as heart breaking as
the 25-year-old red faced pro
fell from the second and third
day leads with a final round 78,
six over par. But Bone was
happy because it brought him
$1,600. His previous winnings in
two years as a pro totaled $33.34.
Bone's 284 total put him into
a tie with Mike Souchak, Gros
singers, N. Y., who moved up
with a par 72.
Palmer said he knew he need
ed only pars on the 17th and
18th to win. "And I wasn't a bit
nervous. I was very lucky and
got the good breaks."
Palmer's short irons and put
ter were hot as he picked up
five birdies to offset two bogies.

Scoring Crown
New York (U.R) Injuries to

Defending champ Bob Petit of
the St. Louis Hawks, who suf
fered a broken wrist 10 days

over Arizin in the weekly scor

but it was obvious that lanky
Bob's rule was doomed.

the Philadelphia Warriors has
missed two games because of an

Arresfed for Murder
Portland (U.R) Police held
Mrs. Frances Willoughby, 42, on
a murder charge today after her

UCLA Meets
USC Today
In Crucial
By UNITED PRESS
The defending champion
UCLA Bruins run up against im
proving Trojans of Southern
California tonight in a Pacific
Coast conference basketball
game that will break the tie for
first place as the end of the sea
son draws closer.
If the Bruins can defeat their
cross town rivals, they will take
over first place with a 12 to 1
record. But if UCLA loses, the
California Bears go on top with
out even suiting up.
But mathematically, Washing
ton could still sneak in, if the
Trojans could sweep all four
games, Cal and UCLA split, and
the Huskies could win their final
two with Washington state.
The standings: California 11
to 1, UCLA 11 to 1, Washington
11 to 3, USC 6 to 4, Stanford 6
to 8, Washington State 4 to 8,
Oregon State 3 to 9, Idaho 3 to
11, and Oregon 1 to 11.
A crucial game is scheduled
for tonight in the California
Basketball association, too. The
St. Mary's Gaels could climb
into a first place tie with the
University of San Francisco by
defeating the College of Pacific.

First Base for Tigers
By UNITED PRESS

Ray Boone as his first baseman
today, automatically making
third base on the Detroit Tigers
the "hot corner" in fact as well
as in name.
Tighe's designation of the 33-year-old
Boone to play first base
threw the baltte for the "hot
corner" open to four players.
Jim Finigan, former Kansas City
infielder, is the No. 1 candidate
but Tighe said equal considera

George Risley.
