IP The famous Bauer sisters, bidding for the biggest title of them all to climax the famous golfing ca reers they began in their teens, shared the lead today in the U. S. Women's Open championship. They each shot first round one-under-par 72s. the only ones in the starting field of 32 pro fessionals and 63 amateurs to crack par Wednesday on the sun baked 6. 246-yard east course of the Winged Foot Golf club. That gave them a one-stroke edge over Gloria Armstrong of Oakland, Calif., who divides her time be tween flying airplanes and play ing golf. While some in the field were closely bunched behind the lead ers, the performances of the belting Bauers put them in the favorite's role, with Mrs. Mar lene Bauer Hagge, the younger of the two, given an edge over Alice Bauer because her piay this year has been far more consist ent. The 23-year-old Marlene, who is married to Alice's ex-husband, has won $7,237 on the PGA tour nament trail so far this year while Alice who is 28, has picked up only $1,016. But there" was no question but what they dominated the opening round as no family ever has dominated a major golf tourna ment before. First it was the brunette Mar lene who came in with a 38-34-72 against par 37-36-73. Playing in her 10th Open she played in her first when she was only 10 Marlene sprayed her drives but made up for it with remarkable recovery irons. Also she had only one three-putt green, which was unusual because of the light ning fast greens. Three hours later the blonde Alice came in to tie her sister. She started out with two birdies and then went four under par when she holed a nine-iron ap proach shot for an eagle on the 440-yard par five eighth hole. But she bogeyed the ninth to turn in 34 the best nine of the first round and then had two more bogeys on the back nine as she went two over on that side with a 38. Miss Armstrong, who has won less than $200 since she turned The Lucin cutoff, across Great Salt Lake in Utah, is the long est railroad bridge in the United States, extending for 12 miles in length.

One of the six former cham : pions in the field Be(sy Rawls 0, Spartanburg. S. C, who won the title in 1951, and Betsy Dodd, the veteran pro from Louisville, Ky., were tied at 74. At 75 came another former winner, Betty Jameson of San Antonio, Tex., who won it in 1947: Jo Ann Prentice of Bir mingham, Ala., and Betty Hicks of Long Beach. Calif. Louise Suggs of Sea Island, Ga., who won the tournament in 1949 and Mary Lena Faulk of Thomas ville, Ga., had 76s. fej DJSTILLED HiR I i IohdonDry it r , Xrb !. i Gin - f On the threshold of pei'fect Gin drinks...
