Houston Classic Begins HOUSTON aPI - Us lake dyed blue, its fairways cement hard, its greens thick and 'ver dant, the Memorial Park golf course today began bearing the brunt of 114 9pros and 10 ama teurs teeing olf for t)ie $50,000 Houston Classic. This is the year the expert: are looking for a new Classic rec ord for 72 holes. The old record of 273 was set by big Mike Sou chak in 1!)53. The golfers report that .the course is in excellent condition this year. This was borne out Wednesday in the pro-am won by Gay Brewer of Crystal City. Fla.. who went around in a 66 and picked up S250 first prize money. Besides Brewer, eight other pros took-, the 7,200-yard par-70 course apart with subpar rounds despite a gustv 20-mile an hour v.ind. Jumbo Jack Nicklaus and South African Gary Player were the 5 1 co-favorites probably because they stand one-two in the money winnings this year coupled with the fact that Nicklaus' long-hitting game is suited to Memorial's long, hard fairways, and Player's iron and putter play is suited to tile course's plush greens. Bobby Nichols, last year's Clas sic champ, was listed at 18-1 to repeat the performance. If he docs, it would be the' first time in the 17-year history of the Clas sic. "Arnie's Army," those loyal fol lowers of Arnold Pillmer, will he missing from the Classic for the second straight year. Palmer passed up the Classic at the last minute to catch up' on dental and Optometrist appointments. Palmer, Tony Lema and Don January are the only big names missing from this year's Classic The rest of the money winners! on the Professional Golfers Asso ciation tour this year are in the field. They are shooting for a "possi ble" $10,000 first prize up $1,000 from last year. The catch is the winner must do it in the regula tion 72-holcs. The playoff-sick Houston Golf Association put up the extra grand this year be cause of four ties in the last four years. HERALD AVI) NEWS. Klamath Fallt. Ore.

UPI Telephoto Slow Walking Sam Snead May Have Shot At Open TUP' Major League Standings By United Press International American League W. L. Pel. (IB. 5 2 .714 By JACK CUDDY UPI Spirts Writer NEW YORK (L'PII Admirers of Samuel Jackson Snead, the millionaire hillbilly, are so pleased with his play this year that they're wondering if his sore left foot will permit him to limp into his first U.S. Open victory in June at Brookline, Mass. Sam, who will be 51 on May 27, has had a bad and persistent stone-bruise or "spur" on the ball of his left foot since last Octo ber; and i causes him to walk more slowly than usual over the golf courses. And that is consid ered very helpful lor the man in the straw hat. Although Snead leads all golf ers with his 112 victories in ma jor tournaments and is the big gest all-time money winner with nearly $300,000 in prize money, there are some admirers who be lieve he would have been even greater had lie continued to walk more courses bov from the hills near Springs, Va. When he was "Shoeless Sam," he walked more carefully than when he later donned store-shoes and set a pace that sometimes made him breathe too hard at crucial moments, they say. This year, sore-footed Sam looked unexpectedly good in his latest three tournaments. He lin ished second in the $50,000 Doral Open at Miami, Fla.; third in the Masters' tourney at Augusta, Va. and seventh last week at Greens boro, N.C. In those three tour nevs he won about $13,000 an average of more tpan $4,000 each. But more important, Slammin'j Sam beat Arnold Palmer, Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus the "big three" in the Doral, and at Augusta he defeated Player and Palmer again but lost out to Nick laus, the tourney winner. His next competition in the United States will be the $100,000 classic Thunderbird Charity tour- tliey shut out the Buckaroos 3 0 at San Francisco to square mat ters at 3-3. It was announced after the game that (lie deciding contest will be played in the Portland arena next Tuesday, April 23. The six-clay delay should give the Northern Division contenders enough time to decide who will face the Portland-San .Francisco winner for the Western Hockey League title. Vancouver moved into a 3-2 lead in the Northern scramble Wednesday night by downing Scattle 3-2. The Seals played a smooth checking game, keeping the speedy Buckaroos off balance all night. Mo Manilla was the first to score when he hit on an do footer at 1:'23 of the second pe riod. Larry McNabb, the rookie de fenseman who was consistently getting into trouble early in the season, scored on a 55-looter at 8:15 of the period. Ed Panagabko let fly with the insurance goal at 13:39 of the final period. Vancouver shaded the Totems on a shot by Bob McCusker with an involuntary assist from a Se attle delenseman. McCusker's shot, with less than two minutes remaining in the final period.
