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.

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.
It happened when he jumped , kmim-nrl off the unhanov Seattle
