EIGHT HERALD AND MEWS Thursday. April 19. 1945 L I Lord Byron Lacks Color - But Oh Boy! Lord Byron Nelson,- the current king-pin of golfdom's tour nament trek and winner of no less than eight championships. SoS draw the following that his nearest competitor, Slammm' doesntarawuieiu b but he cashes , more wVLS often. . . . . . - The reason for aammys immense vauviy is actually a compliment to the. perfection of Nelson's game. Snead is in trouble more often than not and his marvelous recovery, shots are the things that draw the gallery- On the other hand, Lord Bvron is always methodically down, the middle and is very, very, seldom in need of helPThe crowd will scream, "Snead just sunk one from out of a trap and is one under par,' while Nelson may be following him with a mj nnnc nar anH he didn't have to ex- itmpi ploae oui 01 sana uajia iu uH.

When he lays into a drive it rescmoies a surge gu.. with the pellet streaking way. way out to a distance of perhaps over 300 yards! Nelson doesn't get the distance that Snead does, but his accuracy. is, nothing less than amazing. . . - Eor instance, in one tournament this season. Nelson re marked to Tournament Manager Fred Corcoran , that he had played shots in his second round out of divots he had made on his first trip around the course. - Like hundreds of others, we'll take Slammin' Sammy for our money, but there is little doubt that Nelson is the perfectionist of golf' today. . .. i Darkhorse May Cop N. L. Pennant : With the major league baseball season now underway, it is time to stick the old neck out on some predictions for flag For some reason, we do not feel that the Brownies will be able to repeat in the American loop and we sort of like the De troit Tigers to cop the bunting. The Bengals have the top pitch ing staff of both leagues and have long distance power at the P?teTieir "infield V capable and the outfield, while not the best in the majors, shows definite promise. . ' In the National league, the experts are picking the St. Louis r-yrriiraiU to repeat, but we like either the Chicago Cubs or the Pittsburgh Pirates. We pick the Cubs for sentimental reasons as the Chicago nine is our favorite ball club and we really feel that file Cobs have the stuff to take the flag if they can live up to flieir-pre-season -standard of play. Of the two clubs-, we. take Chicago. This' is, perhaps, wishful thinking on bur part, but the Cubs have' a potentially good ball club and we remember the year tbey mm 21 games in a row to cop the National league pennant. t - They also came from behind not many years ago under Gab by Hartoett to nose out the Pirates and go on to the world series against the New York Yanks. The less said about the series, the better. -- -So there It is,- the Chicago Cubs to take the National loop Bunting tne Detroit Tigers to want oil with the American cir cuit flag. It could really happen, too. v . - . Marine Johnny Gates Meets Proctor Tuesday Punching Leatherneck Decisioned ' John L. Sullivan in Portland Arena Ready to Go!
