AP) -Ben Hogan, a little fellow who carries a lot of weight, took a share of the lead into the second round of the 59th U.S. Open Golt championship today. But two younger pros who carry little weight physically or com petitivelyfound themselves in a very enviable position although the 46-year-old Texas precision ist shot a 69 Thursday in his bid for an unprecedented fifth open title. , Dick Knight. 29-year-old. 5-foot- 10. 160-pound former driving range operator who plays out of San Diego. Calif., was tied for first with Hogan and two others of golf's best-known stars. Gene Lit tler and Dow Finsterwald. Hillman Robbins, a 27-year-old 5-10. 137-pound freshman pro who was National Amateur champion two years ago, was only stroke behind. But so many good players were grouped within a few strokes of these pace-setters that it still could be anybody's tournament, Here's how it shaped up after the first round: nea lor lirsl with 69s. one under par for the trap-strewn, 6.873-yard Winged Foot west course: Hogan, the grim little man who is playing superb golf: Littler, the former amateur titleholder who recovered his play ing form this year and has won three tournaments: always-steady Finsterwald the PGA champion: and Knight, who never has won anything more important than the California Open. Alone at 70: Robbins. who turned professional less than a year ago, hasn't won anything important and is acutely con scious of his shortcomings. At 71: two-time Open champion Cary Middlecoff, South Africa's Gary Player, runner-up to Tommy Holt last year: former PGA cham pion Lionel Hebert, Billy Casper. Don January, Ted Kroll. Arnold Palmer, Don -Fairfield. Bo Win inger and big Mike Souchak. At 72: Al Balding of Canada. Bruce Crampton of Australia. Bill Collins, Gene Bone, Doug Ford, Ernie Vossler, home pro Claude Harmon, Henry Ransom. Ewing Pomeroy and National Aamteur champion Charlie Coe. These are the ones who must be considered as the contenders at this stage. The trailers at 73 include such illustrious players as Sammy Snead and always-dangerous Jay Hebert. Tommy Bolt, the defending champion, appeared virtually out of it with an opening round of 75. A trio of former champions were worse off Julius Boros with a 76, Dick Mayer with 77 and Ed Furgol with 83. Knight, a native of Omaha who used to sit on Johnny Goodman's bag and watch the 1933 Open champion practice, was the real surprise performer of the first round. He has played in the Open only once before at Rochester in 1956, and was cut off after 36 holes. I TIME OUT "Mind pulling the mustard on thai hot dog when they're not In a spurt, Mai!"
