PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor Augusta, Ga. -UJPll- Arnold Palmer conquered his jinx hole, so he figured today that he was well on the road to his second Masters golf cham pionship. He held a two stroke lead over the field going into the second round and it looked like there would be no stopping him-especially if he can keep out of "Palmer's pond." He did Thursday to shoot a brilliant five under par 67 -two strokes better than his nearest first round pursucrs thc veteran Claude Harmon, former PGA champion Dow Finsterwald, Juy Herbert and Fred Hawkins. And while that par three 155-yard water hole turned out to be a major factor in Palmer's round it turned out to be a nightmare for Ken Venturl. The 29-year-old Californian had burned up the front nine in 31-five under par, equalling the course record and looked like a good bet to" overhaul Palmer until he came to that vital 12th. Gets Bad Break Where Palmer got a good break on the hole, Venturi got a bad one, and it so un nerved him that he soared to a six over par 42 on the back nine to wind up with a total of 73. That duplicated his per formance of 1950, when as an amateur, it looked like he had the championship in the bag, but went to pieces on the back nine, wound up with that bugaboo 42 and lost out by one stroke to Jackie Burke. Palmer, the 1958 winner, lost his chance to win last year when he put his tee shot In the water on that 12th hole and wound up with a double bogey. Thursday, his tee shot imbedded in the lip of a sand trap. The officials ruled he was entitled to a free lift. Twice he dropped the ball over his shoulder, and twice it went into the sand trap. Because golfing rules stipu late you can't drop a ball into a hazard it finally was ruled that Palmer could drop It in the grass near the green. He did and got his par three. Goes To Pieces Venturi put his six iron over the green. He had such a bad lie that he failed to chip his second shot on. He made it with his third, but then two-putted from five feet. His game went to pieces after that. There was a lot of drama bdsides that 12th hole in Thursday's first round. It attracted the largest first day gallery in the history of U.S. golf tournaments-art, es timated 17,000. It saw 11 play ers in the 84-man field break par over the 6,980-yard Au gusta National course. That's the second best par-busting CLARK FAVORED Ogden. Utah -UIM- Knock out artist Lamar Clark was rated a slight favorite to beat promising heavyweight Bar tolo Soni tonight in their na tionally televised bout from Ogdon's Weber High gym. The two powerful punchers meet In a scheduled 10-round- er and few people expect the bout to go the limit. The. fight will be televised nationally by NBC. The main event takes place at 7 p.m. (p.s.U.

Off -Season Deals Make Giants Look Sharper Than Ever This Is the l Mh of 16 dispatch es on the I960 prospects of the major league teams. By SCOTT BAILLIE Phoenix, Ariz.- (UPU -Well, can the San Francisco Giants win it this time? Last season they led the National league for almost 10 weeks, then collapsed in the late stages and finished third when the pitching staff ran out of gas. Now Manager Bill Rigney, who only has a one-year con tract this time, has been neat ly placed on the spot by a pair of off-season deals which make the team look sharper than ever. On paper, that is. The pitching staff was strengthened by the acquisi tion of southpaw Billy O Dell (10-12) and Billy Loes (4-7) from Baltimore. And the club also got Don Blaslngame, one of the league's best second basemen, from St. Louis. "I'd think they'd win the pennant now." Johnny Tem ple, the former Cincinnati sec ond baseman, recently said at the Cleveland training camp. "Tht.v pot two good pitchers whien they needed and gave up nothing for 'em." "We'll be Contender' Rigney. naturally, isn't say ing anything like that. "All I feel is that we'll be a contender.'' the tense man ager declares. "The experience of last year helped us and our defense is better. Our pitching is deeper. But we still need a stronger bench." O'Dell figures in Rigney's plans as an extra starter or middle-inning pitcher. Erratic Loes, it is hoped, will be the late-inning rally stopper. That means that the Giants now have a premium starting staff which includes Sam Jones (21-15), southpaw Johnny An tonelli (19-10) and Mike Mc Cormick (12-16) and right hander Jack Sanford (15-12). George Zuverink, former Baltimore right-hander now on a "look" from the Miami Marlins, also has shown well in spring games and might give the staff added depth. The infield could be the best in the league. Willie Mc Covey, who batted .354 last year while winning the Rookie of the Year award, is installed at first base. He hopes to have a better all around season, which means that his fielding still needs some 'Improvement. Blasingame, a sharp lcadoff man, is at second and much is expected of him. Ed Bres soud is at shortstop and Jim Lb J r. w ALL WOOL Slacks, 18 CHRIS THE to TAILOR 36 N. Bartlett Ross are on the crew with more Monday nights, April 11 for tournament kegling. A team Medford is providing "dummy Davenport, the little master of the big play, holds down third. In the outfield, the big question mark is in left field where Orlando Cepeda will open his first full season at that position. Winner of the 1958 rookie of the year award as a first baseman, he was bumped off the job last July when McCovey checked in. Cepeda has had limited out field experience. "We'll try to correct any wearinesses Cepeda might have," Rigney said. "And don't forget, there is Willie Mays in center to help him." On the other side of Mays, baseball's highest salaried player, will be either left handed hitting Willie Kirk land, who has the power, or right-handed batting Felipe Alou, who posses the speed and glove. In order to add some badly needed left-handed batting strength, the Giants acquired outfielder-first baseman Jim Marshall in a deal with the Red Sox and purchased first baseman Dale Long from the Cubs. Both are expected to be used in pinch-hitting roles. Hobie Landrith was listed as the Giant's starting catcher, but broke a finger in spring training and may miss open ing day. Bob Schmidt, who had the job in 1958 but lost it to Landrith last season, will take over. Schmidt is a long ball hitter but not as good a receiver as little Hobie. Andre Rogers, who failed to make the grade as a short stop last year, now is being tried out at third and first base as a possible utility man. Joey Amalfitano, whom the Giants signed as a bonus play er in 1954 then drafted last winter from Toronto where he hit .308. Can Rigney make his club live up to its advance notices? "We'll do our best, that's all," he barks. Beavers Gear For 2 Meets Corvallis IUPB Oregon State's track and field team geared Itself for two meets in three days today. The Beav ers face Washington here Saturday and Fresno State here Monday. Coach Sam Bell said he ex pected the meet with Wash ington to go right down to the wire although his Beavers finished many points ahead of the Huskies in last week's Northern division relays at Eugene.

And the way Coach Bud Winter of the Spartans and Coach Payton Jordan of Stan ford talk, Ernie is capable of being the second United States citizen ever to crack the barrier. While Europeans and Aus tralians have been under the magic figure In droves since Roger Bannister first electri fied the sports world with his feat, only Don Bowden of this country has been able to join the elite. "But this boy cunliffe," says Winter, "is so well con ditioned right now and run ning so smoothly, that he could do It if everything goes right."

Now It's three straight vic tories for the former rulers of the American league, the latest a 2-1 triumph over De troit behind the combined three-hit pitching of Bob Tur ley and Ryne Duren. That sounds more like the Yankee world champs of 1958 than the third-place flops of 1959. Even Casey Stengel will ad mit that Grapefruit league victories aren't worth a dime in October, but this was the second straight fine perform ance by Turley-who has been tabbed the key to the Yankee pennant hopes. Firing Rock Again Turley, who has abandoned the no-windup style and is fir ing that rock again, ran his string of scoreless innings to 12 before tiring in the seventh inning of Thursday's game and allowing a run on Neil Crisley's double and Steve Bilko's single.
