Some sharp bickering marked the high-pressured chase after pro moter George S. Mays rich en dowment, which Includes a $13,500 second-spot bundle for the loser of today' playoff. Three players Dave Douglas, Jack Burke and Ed Furgol, who shared lesser loot complained that Mlddlecoff slowed up proceed lngs 45 minutes to accomodate televising; of the finish.
