No longer are the shotmakers knocking over resort layouts with a drive and a wedge and a putt, the 40th guy 3 or 4 under par and out of the money. The Augusta National, site of the 18th Masters, Apr. 8-11, is de signed for every club In the bag and to punish a poor shot. It was over this beautiful 6800 yard, par 72 course, winding through" pines -and"- blooming -wis- teria and azaleas, that Hogan, the greatest precision Roller who ever lived, rlasl year shot what were perhaps me linest lour consccu tlve rounds ever turned In any where. His 274 was 5 strokes bet ter than the previous tournament record. He was 14 under par with 22 birdies and only eight bogeys. Playing the course a full two weeks before the tournament reading the fine print in the con tract, as he describes It Hogan found only two changes. A little has been added to the back of the second green and two bunkers have been put behind No. 11. Hogan Is again the man to beat, of course, and, as In the case of the Yankees' Phil Rizzuto, you wonder how much longer he can Exhibition Baseball By Till'.
