Title Won
By Palmer
Br OSCAR FRALEY
East Norwich, N.-Y- (UPI)
Brawny Arnold Palmer,
with the $9,000 first money
in the Pepsi golf champion
ship fattening his year's fair
way winnings to $37,564,
headed for defense of his Rub
ber City open title today with
a putting stroke learned one
week too late.
The Masters champion from
Latrobe, Pa., scored a five
shot victory over lean Jay He
bert of Sanford, Fla., in the
Pepsi with a final-round par
71 for an 11-under-par, four
round total of 273.
Almost as happy as the win
ner was the slender Hebert.
The Sanford, Fla., pro, a na
tive of Louisiana, long has
been hailed as a potential big
winner but his $4,600 second
place money on a final
round, three-under-par 68 for
278 was the biggest payoff
of his career.
Snead-Kroll Tie
Another shot away came
Don Fairfield, the human one
iron from Casey, 111., whose
closing 70 for 279 earned
$3,000. It was the most loot
he'd ever carried off, too.
Sammy Snead, despite an
arching ' rib muscle, fired a
final round 70 which placed
him at 280 along with chunky
Ted Kroll and Bob Rosburg.

Bobby Bragan, released
last week as manager of the
Cleveland Indians, was
hired as manager of the
Spokane Indians of the Pa
cific Coast league today to
replace Goldie Holt, who
was fired Sunday night.
By SCOTT BAILLIE
United Press International
As Jimmy Dykes once said,
"the only thing a, manager
can be sure of is that he'll
get fired."
And it happened to Goldie
Holt of the Spokane Indians
Sunday as his Tribe split a
twin bill with Phoenix which
kept the Giants from nudging
Vancouver out of first place
in the PCL chase.
Phoenix downed Spokane,
8-5, in the first game and then
President Dick Walsh of the
Indians passed on the word
that Holt was finished after
the doubleheader. Spokane
won the nightcap, 9-7, in an
ironic windup to Holt's brief
career with the seventh-place
club.

Tough Foe
Today for
Yank Netter
Wimbledon, England
(UPI) Lanky Barry MacKay
of Dayton, Ohio, figured to
win a quarter-final berth in
men's singles in the Wimble
don tennis championships to
day but the odds were stacked
against . the only other sur
viving Americans, Budge
Patty and Gardner Mulloy.
MacKay, who was seeded
eighth as the only Yank to
get a nod from the tourney
officials, faced, a dangerous
and experienced foe in Indian
Davis Cupper Ramanathan
Krishnan but was expected to
win.
Patty and Mulloy, however,
faced seeded stars in their ef
forts to add one more day of
glory to their long careers.
The 34-year-old Patty, of Los
Angeles and Paris, who won
the title here in 1950, clashed
with seventh-ranked Sven
Davidson, a former U. S. in
door champion: the 44-year-old
Mulloy of Denver, Colo.,
met third-seeded Australia
southpaw Mervyn Rose.
Also making a bid for a
quarter-final berthv today in
women's singles was -40-year-old
Margaret Osborne DuPont
of Wilmington. Del., 1947
Wimbledon champion, who
met Fay Muller of Australia.
The only other U. S. women
still "alive" .in singles were
defending champion Althea
Gibson of New York and un
seeded Mimi Arnold of Red
wood City, Calif., both of
whom already have reached
the quarter-finals.

Divided Twin Bills
Two other twin bills were
divided while Salt Lake and
Portland were rained out
after going three innings in
their opener. Vancouver de
feated vSan Diego, 4-2, theri
was dropped 4-1. Sacramento
pinned a 6-2 defeat on Seattle
and the Rainiers came back
with a 1-0 triumph on Morty
Kutyna's three-hitter.
A total of eight home runs
were blasted over the
chummy fences In Phoenix's
ball park during the evening,
seven of them in the finale.
Bob Prescott got three hits
for the Giants in the opener
to end a three game losing
streak. His second double of
the night and third safety of
the game touched off a four
run rally in the sixth inning
that wiped out a one-run
deficit. Ernie Broglio relieved
Pete Burnside in the same
frame to get the win. Bob
Milliken, also a reliever, was
charged with the loss.
Debut by Palmquist
Spokane overcame a 7-3
lead in the second tilt while
driving starter Gordon Jones
from the mound. The Spokes
outhomered Phoenix, 4-3, in
this one and lefty Dick Scott
took over from Ed Palmquist
in the fifth inning to turn off
the Phoenix power and notch
his first win. He joined the
club from St. Paul yesterday.
The split left Phoenix two
percentage points behind Van
couver. Joe Hatten came on in the
ninth inning of the first game
to help Art Ceccarelli notch
his eighth triumph for the
Mounties. A two run double
by Owen Friend in the eighth
inning brought in the win
ning tallies against loser Dick
Brodowski.
Bud Podbielan of the Padres
hurled a three-hitter in the
short second game - as his
mates routed George Bamber
ger with a four run splurge
in the fifth inning. Three con
secutive bunt singles after
Dick Smith had lined out a
solid one bagger started
Bamby on the way out.
Sacramento got three runs
for Joe Stanka in the first
inning of their lid-lifter
against the Suds and the Solon
right-hander never was in
much trouble after that, At
least, as far as scoring was
concerned. But he nearly
tangled with Seattle's Al Fed
eroff later in the game when
the Rainier claimed he was
being dusted off.
Kutyna struck out four and
walked one in fashioning his
three-hit job in the ; after
piece. The lone run came in
the third inning when Don
Nicholas was safe at first on
an error and eventually' scor
ed from third on Vada Pin
son's sacrifice fly.
Salt Lake and Portland
were tied, 1-1, in the fourth
inning of their first game
when the rains came.
