last week. The Wildcats will
play the first game, starting at 7
p, m.
Coach Marble Cook drilled
his charges Monday in a suitable
offense to combat the zone de
fense used by the Weed hoop
sters. In the previous tilt be
tween the two schools, the Peli
cans were in a quandary as to
how to out-maneuver the zone set
un bv their opponents. The K-
men also practiced defensive tac
tics, a department in which me
bovs appeared to be weak in
their initial tussle.
In this fracas, Jim Norecn and
Bob Perkins will start at euards,
Jerrv Thome sets the nod at
center and the forwards will be
Jim Palmer and cither Jim Pope
or Larry White.
Paul Anustead's Wildcats will

Lord Byron Nelson Noses
Out Ferrier in S. F. Open
By RUSS NEWLAND
- SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5 (VP)
Back on the beam, hitting
straight and hard, Byron Nelson
held the San Francisco Open
golf tournament title today for
the second consecutive year.
He Dosted a 281 for the 72-
hole event to nose out Sgt. Jim
Ferrier, Camp Roberts, Calif., in
a whirlwind finish to yester
day's final round. Ferrier card
ed a 282, after leading the tour
nament from the 36th through
the 68th holes.
It was practically within
sight of home that Nelson, lead
ing money winner of the year
and former National Open and
PGA champion, pulled up on
even terms with the big blonde
sergeant.
Nelson sqtfared the count at
the 69th with a par 4, Ferrier
missing a. six-foot putt for a
half. The -coifing soldier, one

lost the tournament on the next!
hole. He hit a ball out of bounds
and misred a six-foot putt. The
miscue cost him a six and Nel
son went into, a two stroke lead.
Ferrier made a bid on the.
72st hole: droppine a 10-footer
for. a birdie 2 that cut Nelson's
lead to a sine e stroke. Thev
halved the final hole in par 4,
Ferrier being short on a 40-foot
putt and Nelson lipping the cup
for his birdie try from 12 feet.
The victory put $2666 more
in war bonds in Nelson's pocket,
boosting his year's total to more
than $43,000 in bonds. Ferrier
picked up $1866 for second
place, plus $100 as the low scor
ing service man. .-
Nelson, who won the San
Francisco Open a year ago with
72-hol.c score of 275. carded
rounds of 72-71-69-69 to success
fully defend his title. Ferrier
put together rounds of 75-66-70-71.
Par for Harding Park is 36-3672.
Ferrier. in addition to racking
up the lowest round of the tour
ney, his second-day 66, provided
the, main thrills for a gallery of
several thousand in the final
round by playing a shot out of
a tree, after his ball had lodged
in branches some 30 feet from
the ground.
Willie GoEEin. White Plains.
N. Y., and Sam Snead, Hot
Springs, Va., finished in a tie
for third-with 287. Snead and
the winner, Nelson, started the
tournament as eo - favorites.

Minor League
Meet Opens
Wednesday
By JOE REICHLER
BUFFALO. Dec. 5 (P) Base
ball notables, here for the minor
league .convention that opens to
morro,w,are determined to lay
the foundation for a new order
in the. game in the same city
where they agreed to operate
under the present major-minor
agreement 23 years ago.
At a banquet held in early I
December, 1921, Commissioner
K. M. Landis, after one year in
office, mode his first appearance i
before the 26 minor leagues to !
map out-plans for major-minor I
unity. - He warned them of the i
grave problems confronting
baseball and was especially
critical of the draft and the ter
ritorial problems.
Today Judge Landis is gone,
but there are still 26 leagues,
although only 10 are operating,
and the minors face the same
problems.
Resigned to the fact that due
to Landis' death, the major-minor
code automatically extend;
to January 12, 1946, the lower
leagues arc prepared to give full
consideration to 13 amendments
to the major-minor agreement
Chief of these are the draft and
the territorial problem.
Proposed by the AA Pacific
Coast league, an amendment
calls for the doubling of the
draft price from $7500 to $15,
000. With an eye on develop
ments after the war, the coast
loop also proposed a more iron
clad territorial protection. As
the rules stand, a major league
may go into a minor league tcr
ritory by the payment of $5000
to the league and of a reasonable
amount to the affected club as
determined by agreement, or
fixed by the commissioner.
