tin which had this TO say about
the amendment:
cit means that the council

Of the tendency of Detroiters to

First Big Crown
Putt Of Same Length
Foe Blows Decides
38-HoIe Struggle
Ry LOUDON KELLY,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

DENVER. July l4.-1t was only
30-lnch putt and it wobbled into
the cup like any buffers effort, but
to 6-foot 3-inch Vic Ghezzi it was
worth $500 and his first Professional
Golfers Association title.
The handsome Deal N. j., veteran
won the championship and the
s1,l00 top prize after nine years
trying in a 38-hole epic with De-
Tending Champion Byron Nelson of
Toledo, Ohio, against the mountain
backdrop at Cherry Hills Yesterday
And the missed shot that cost the
Texas bred Nelson the last chance
at his second straight crown and the
difference between first money and
the $500 he won was putt of the
same 2i2-foot length.
Picture the scene on the second
extra hole of the up-and- down
struggle, with a tense gallery massed
around the green by the lake in the
hot late afternoon sun:
Both players, worn from physical
and nervous strain, failed to reach
the carpet of the 4OO-yard hole with
their seconds. First Ghezzi Clipped
on, then Nelson-both expertly close.
Toss Coin For First Putt.
Unable to determine which was
the farther from the cup, they hud-
died like football captains to flip
coin and Nelson won. He putted
first and went by at the right. Then
Ghezzl, with $500 and the long
sought title riding on his grass
stained blade, went in by the right
side.
Ghezzl never before had won
championship of this Importance.
He showed the fighting heart of a
true champion in coming from be-
hind. Nelson was up at the 27-
hole station and it appeared nothing
would stop him.
1t was Byron's third blood-tin-
CLING championship scrap in three
years IN this greatest of match plav
rxtures Tor the professionals. He
was beaten by Henry Picard in 81
holes two years ago and collared
Sam Snead in 36 last year.
At Cherry Hills Ghezzi eoualed
par for the SO holes. Nelson was one
over par.
Ghezzi, who never before had
cleared the third round of the p. G.
A., said he beat "one of the finest
golf players we've ever had. I feel
ike a kid on Christmas morning "
Three Holes Pack Drama.
When l made that 27-hole turn
8 down, l said to myself that that
back 9 owed me something and I
went out to try and get it" he said,
The three holes leading to the
payoft green pulsated with drama
On the long 35th, when he was
ahead Tor the first time since morn
ing, Ghezzl hit a cottonwood tree
with his drive and drowned his
third in the lake to even the match
for the fourth time.
On the uphill home hole it seemed
to be all over because Nelson's iron
second fell far short in a road, but
Vlcs doWnhill 4foot putt for the
victory rolled yard past.
He nearly ended it on the first
extra hole as his 11-foot putt almost
cropped in. but they had to plod on
Tor another hole and the duel of
3O-lnch puts.
Nelson said glumly: Il don't know
how I ever missed one like that ex-
cept that I was just getting ex-
hausted."
National Open Champion Craig
WOOD was in the gallery of 5000
and he advised Ghezzi to take that

THAT kid" We suggested, might
win this championship. His name
Is Gene Sarazen."
We didn't think he would quite
do it with Bobby Jones and Walter
Hagen on hand. But he did. He
finished with 68, beating Bob
Jones and John Black by one stroke.
He was a great competitor at 20 and
he is an even greater competitor
l9 years later at 80.
From that championship Sarazen
went on to win the P. G. A. that
same fall and greatest of all P. G. A.
thrillers the following fall when he
cudgeled out Walter Hagen on the
3oth green at Pelham.
This is the Connecticut squire,
who left his tractor and his COWS. to
battle in his Goth P. G.. A. so ably
at Denver last week
