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

for nothing. 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 . - .

' ScaHle and Portland, riding
(he crest of early season Pacific
Coast league winning streaks,
both tumbled to detent Inst
night In opening gomes on their
homo fields.
The Ralnicrs, leading the loon,
received a 3-2 rap nt tho hands
of the Oakland Acorns, who
moved Into third plocc. Two
runs in the third nnd another
in the sixth clinched the gnme
for the Oaks. Floyd Strommr
received credit for tho win,
though he was relieved on the
mound In the seventh by "Sad
Sam" Gibson when Seattle
scored its second run.
Veteran Ad Llsku of the
Beavers weakened in the ninth
inning to allow the lowly Holly
wood Stars to squeeze across
their two runs, giving the ccllnr
dwellers a 2-1 victory. Butch
Moran, Hollywood first base
man, scored the winning run
when Shortstop Johnny O'Ncil
threw low on Hugh Willing
ham's ground ball.
The Angels end San Diego

the Padres copping the opener,

Sitcher, Carl Dumlcr of San

straight win in the first game.
Lou Novikoff, the madcap Rus
sian castoff from the Chicago

Los Angeles with a three-run
homer in the first Inning.
Sacramento dropped from

game to the Seals, 10-9.
The Padres exploded In tho

game. . .

Critics who feared Trout
might have "burned out" his
salary whip In 1944 by over

their opener from Boston with
a seven-run frame and mode it

Hank Borowy turned in the
lowest hit performance of tho
day when he rationed Boston to

was an afternoon dominated by
fine pitching, with three shut

tho six games.

done Connie Mack's heart good.
The tall sldcnrmer injured a

turned in the masterpiece of the
infant season, by scattering seven
Senator blows over 12 Innings.
