Time Out By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Bobby Anderson, a towering 23-year-old right-hander who was something less than sensational last year, has developed into the key man in the Chicago Cubs' pitching staff so much so that Manager Bob Scheffing today de cided to give him the opening day starting assignment. At such an age, the supposition ' would be that Anderson is pretty much of a novice in the pitching trade. Guess again. He has toiled for no fewer than five minor league clubs and now is going into his fourth hitch with the Cubs. Anderson, all 6-4 of him, spent most of last season with Fort Worth in the Texas League where he compiled a 17-9 record. He hung on with the Cubs for a while and posted a 3-3 mark and a 3.95 ERA. But Sunday, he capped a fine exhibition campaign, holding the Boston Red Sox to three singles during a seven-inning stint in Fort Worth. The Cubs won the ball game, 5-0, and Anderson got Fri day's starting assignment against Los Aneeles. Durine the spring, Anderson pitched 38 innings and allowed 12 earned runs. Three top veterans oiled their rms for their opening day ap pearances. Warren Soahn shut out the De troit Tieers. 5-0. on six hits for Hie Milwaukee Braves in Braden- town: Billy Pierce whitewashed the Washineton Senators. 3-0, for the Chicazo White Sox in Charles ton, S.C., and Bob Friend, ace ot the Pittsburgh Pirates' staff, cut down the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-1. in Fort Myers, Fla. Elsewhere, the San Francisco Giants edged the Cleveland In dians, 7-6. in Denver; the Los An geles Dodgers downed the Kan sas City A's. 3-1, in West Palm Beach; the Cincinnati Reds out . lasted Hie New York Yankees in ' 10 innings, 7-6, in Tampa, and the Baltimore Orioles turned lack the St. Louis Cardinals, 5-4, in Miami. If his Braves' teammates 'are , nvprmnfident. Snahn certainly not. It marked the veteran left hander's second shutout in three starts. The Tigers collected six hits and just two of them got as tar as third hasc. For Pierce, the triumph was his first nina innina ;ob of tie spring But in this case the silver lining had a dark cloud. The fcox col lected just six singles. They've been having trouble all spring get ting anything more than a single. Friend outpitched another vet eran, Robin Roberts. The Pirate riohtv cave ud only six hits. Rob erts was touched for 13, including homers by BiU Virdon and Dick Stuart. Home runs were the big factor In the victories of the (jianis, Hnrinprs and Reds. Jackie Brandt lrned a three-run Job in the eighth to earn the r.iinti their come-from-behind struggle over the Tribe. Charlie Neal sent the Dodgers ahead with a homer in the third, and John Powers came up as a pinch hitter for Cincinnati in the tenth with Pete Whisenant on base and blast ed one of Jim Bronstad's pitches over the right field wall and the Yanks weredead. Winner Aided By Caddy Editor's Note: Art Wall Jr. staged one of the ' greatest golf ing finishes in history to win the Masters championship. He tells how he did it in the following dispatch. By ART WALL JR. AUGUSTA, Ga. (UPI)-My hat's off to my caddy he helped make me a winner. His name is Henry Hammond and what he doesn't know about the Augusta National Golf Course isn't worth learning. To my mind, the 14th and 15th were the key holes and he set me straight on the 15th. I thought at- first I'd use four-wood for my second shot but he suggested a two-iron instead. I followed his advice and chose the iron. My shot landed about 25 feet from the hole. Frankly, I wasn't aware that I r son A . VIA? II fJ gsi Masters u "A fine example you set for your children! Using all those dirty tactics when they're watching you wrestle on TV!" AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) An un orthodox baseball grip and a glass-shafted mallet pullet are the trademarks of the new Masters golf champion quiet, modest Art Wall, Jr., of Pocono Manor, Pa. "When I first started playing 1 never knew there was another wav to hold the club." Wall said today of his Mickey Mantle style of whacking a ball. The putter is a recent addition to his bag re placing an old wooden-shafted blade he had carried for 10 years The putter with three dots or had live birdies in tne last six holes until they told me about it later. I didn't even realize I had a chance to win until Julius Boros my playing partner, told me I could take it all as we approached the 17th tec. I had no idea where I stood. When I heard a loud roar on the 15th hole I figured Cary Middlecoff must have come up with an eagle three. I thought be might have a chance at it. When we came up to the 18th, all I was trying to do was get a par. I hit my best drive of the day, then took a nine-iron and hit it about 12 feet Irom the flag. I looked that putt over a long time. It seemed to me it could go either way. So I played straightaway and darned if the ball didn't go in. Funny thing about the final round is that I had set a goal of 70 for myself. I thought that would give me a 2A8 and put me in about third place. I told someone that a 66 might give someone a scare but l never figured I was going to get it. Lo and behold, though, it happened People ask me how come I've started winning all of a sudden. I'd have to credit three fellow pros Mike Fetchik, Joy Hcbert and Doug Ford. Fetchik helped me with my turn on the drive; Hcbert showed me how 1 could do better in a certain position at ad dress: and Ford has proven an education by some of the things he has told me about golf.

The 18-ycar-old freshman has been hospitalized 12 days since he caught his left foot in an elevator door. BOSTON (AP) Point-a-minute Frank Ramsey is the inspired Boston substitute who once almost was traded lo Minneapolis. The Lakers would willingly buy Ram sey just to get him out of their hair today. As the Celtics "sixth man." Ramsey is the main reason Boston leads Minneapolis 2-0 in the Na tional Basketball Assn.'s cham pionship playoffs. Action resumes Tuesday night at St. Paul and at Minneapolis Thurs day. ' The Celtics took charge early in Sunday's 128-108 decision over the Lakers but, as usual, it took Ham sev to light the fuse. The former University of Ken tucky star made his first ap pearance at 8:51 of the first period with Boston leading 18-iR. f rom then until the period ended, the Celts outscorcd the visitors 13-1. By halftime, Boston led 72-48 on 40 points second quarter. Ram sey got 10 of them. Playing 50 minutes in 2 playotl tests against the Lakers, Ramsey has accounted for 49 points 20 of them Sunday. Including the seven game Syracuse series. Ram sey has a 215 total tor a 2J.U average. He s fantastic, remarked eel tics' playmakcr magician Bob Cousy. "I guess he must need the money real bad. I never saw man have a streak ot top piay like that in playoffs. Back in 11158 when Boston was looking everywhere for a rebound the team made a bid to get Vcrn Mikltelscn from the Lakers in exchange for Ramsey and Lou Tsioropoulos both of whom were in the service. At the last minute. Minneapolis decided against wait ing for the discharge of the Ken tucky aces and backed down. its head to warn against three putts played a major part in the most dramatic last day come back in nil the 25 years of Mas ters Tournament play. Starting six strokes back and in a tie lor i;nn place, nan laso ioncd a brilliant six-under-par i Sunday for a total of 284 which left the p3cc-scttcrs scrambling for runncrup money. Cary Middlecoff finished in sec ond olaee at 285. Defending cham pion Arnold Palmer took a triple hoeev six at the 12th hole, th key hole of his success in 1958, and wound up with a 74 for third place at 286. The old Canadian war horse. Stan Leonard, faltered with a 75 for 287 tie with Dick Mayer. Amateur champion Charlie Coc. three-nuttinn five greens, fell back to 73 for 288. The Masters never has seen rally. such as Wall's. In 1958 when1 Jack Burke backed in after being. eight shots behind he omy had to hurdle three players. In 1957 when Doug Ford won with a last round; 66 he also only had to push ahead; of three rivals. Wall leaped over 12 players in his spectacular surge to the front. i He sank one putt of 20 feet. three of 15 feet and finished with a 12-foot birdie putt on the last hole. "I never doubted I could make it." he said. He had five birdies on the last six holes. Wall's victory earned him $15. 000 and pushed his year's money winnings past $30,000, giving him the thickest wallet on the tour. Wall is 35 years old, son of a state representative from Hones dale, Pa., and a pro for 10 years. But until this year, he never made a serious threat for the golf pin nacles which have been occupied by such stars as Ben llogan and Clino. llogan. finished at 295 and got a consolation check of $:ino. Sncad had 293 and banked $1,275. WAYNE SCOTT, Sports Editor Kansas Bowlers Now Ranked 8th ST.
