I. j "You get used to long do- lays at every tee while some , body is hunting for a ball or ,i hacking out a .snappy 10," , sava Frank Strafaci, the 1936 ) tltleholdcr who was reduced to the role of a spectator In the second round this year. "I laugh when I hoar some i big shot complain about a two-minute hold-up on the . tee. 'Brother,' I think to my- self, 'you aiu't seen nothing till you've been caught "In a typical Sunday morning traffic ; jam on a municipal course.' 'Public links players hare to i learn patience. We're so ac ' customed to those Intarrup - tions that a long delay does ; not disturb our concentration as much as It does sensitive golfers who have been cod dled from infancy on fash lettable private courses. "We've had the Ideal train-' ' lng for the kind of confusion ' that you often find In a cham , plonship when spectators run hog wild across the fairway ' chasing a favorite. "Excited galleries don't i show tournament .competitors ' any consideration, but we pub ' lie links boyi are used to that ; sort of thing. We stand In '! line for hours on Sundays and holidays to check in. v "Sometimes we lug our own . bags. We try to keep a line on where our ball goes, strug v gle with' bad lies, divot marks, .' and heel prints In bunkers, , and otherwise face hardships , unknown to the private course '.member, (. "Being jostled by a mob Is no new experience for us. ; The public links player can - take It and does so .cheerfully ' because of his love for the game. He'd rather play golf , than eat. That's no figure . of speech either If you've seen ' a typical links cafeteria on a - busy holiday. No swank grill rooms and cosy lounges tor - the public links golfer." As Strafaci, a 148-pound dark-eyed Italian with finely ' chiseled features, points out, .carrying a bag of clubs helps i to develop shoulder muscles, strengthen legs, and teach re sourcefulness. The golfer dis cards a lot of extra weapons ' to lighten the load and thus, through necessity, learns to . ' play all sorts of shots with ;' the sams club, "Yon become so familiar .with a certain Iron that -you' can play It blindfolded," as ! serts Strafaci, one of five golfing brothers developed on ' the Dyker Beach course In 3 Brooklyn. "You suit your swing to the shot rather than " take the club number which - corresponds to the distance. y "Once you're in a tourna :,; ment, the absence of the usual burden gives you a light, airy ; foellng of freedom. It's the . same principal that baseball players follow when they swing - three bats before going to the ; plate. You can concentrate on your, game with no dlstrac .' tions. Tournament golf be i comes real fun." ' 7-RUM RALLY S Racers Warm Up for Sunday Events LG Portland Comes on Fast in Race for Coast - Honors.

San Francisco's Intramural series was even-Stephen by the Missions 4-3 victory over the seals. Oakland finished Its wild con test with Seattle in Impressive fashion. Fern Bell and Leroy Anton hit homers in the elev enth Inning. After Jack Glynn homed in the first. Freddie M til ler blasted his 25th of the year lor the Indians to start a pa rade of pitchers, Art Hunt's four-ply swat in the eighth with two Indians on base tied the score at 9-all. Five doubles and a triple rat tled the boards In Portland's park. Bill Poaedel staggered the route for the winners, and con tributed to the victory br hit ting a triple with two on during the big sixth, when Portland scored seven runs off Nate An drews and Wabonock. The Missions nursed them selves Into a close win over the Seals. After punching out three hits and scoring only once in the fourth, the Reds made three runs on two dinky singles in the fifth. The runs proved enough for "Specs" Osborne, al though he bad to retire two bat ters in the eighth with the bases loaded to win the contest. . Bench warmers had plenty of room In the Angel dugout yes terday as Acting Manager Truck Hannah joined Jack Lelivelt and two other Los Angeles players outside the park after banish ment by Umpire Hollls Leake. Weakened by the absence of Second Baseman Jimmy Reese and Outfielder Jigger Stats, and baffled by the flossy pitching of their ex-teammate Dick Ward. the Angels lost- their second straight game to the Padres. Outfielder Cidrlc Durst made a nifty catch off his moccasin tops to begin a double play and oc casion the verbal fireworks that resulted in Hannah's ejection. - i,v;r.,, I iu&mJsSs.
