Tie for Links Record
Denied Heafner Due
To Short Course
Muhonins Victor Equals
Woods 72-Ho!e World
Mark With 264 Cord
BY RAY BLOSSER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

GIRARD, Ohio, June 29.-Move
over, Craig Wood. Big Clayton
Heafner is nudging in on the low
scoring golf business.
The Durham IN. c. marksman
shaved eight strokes from par to
post a sensational 264 in successful
defense of his Mahoning Open golf
title yesterday.
His 72-hole total gave him 1000
first prize and tied the world record
of 264 established by Craig Wood
in the 1910 Metropolitan Open. The
PGA announced fatty, however, that
it wouldn't 60 into the books since
the Mahoning Valley Golf Club lay
out is several hundred yards too
short.
Course Too Short.
Fred Corcoran, PGA tournament
manager, explained that Woods "a
beloW-par spree over the Forest
Hills Club at Bloomfield, N. j., was
on par72 layout, while par here
is IS. Forest Hills is $500 yards
long and the Mahoning course is
1904. Corcoran said the PGA did
not recognize record low scores on
any layout shorter than 6,400 yards.
Heafner once was candy factory
worker, and his game was SO sweet
in the stretch drive that he whirled
home three strokes ahead of Horton
Smith Of PinehurSt, N. c., and E.
j. CDutch) Harrison of Harrisburg,
Pa, who compiled 267s for $500
apiece.
Heafner Rarely a Winner.
Big Clayt, seldom a winner, but
frequently a leader tfor a while)
said this time his iron shots were
deadly, and his drives were true.
Only once-on his third round-dId
he go as high as par, his lbs reading
66, 65, 68 and 65.
Only II Saturday sank Ben Ho-
gan, the Hershey. Pa star who
is golf's leading money winner at
Sl1 ,623. Victor in the recent Hale
America tourney, Ben pulled into
a third-place tie at 269 with two
others, thanks to fine Sunday
rounds of 66 and IS. This dead
locked him with Lloyd Mangrum

SOUTH BEND, Ind, June 29.-It
must be said that Frank SANDY
Tatum, jr., of Stanford is lad who
has a lot on the ball-and that can
be taken two ways.
His booming drives and torrid
puts won him the national inter-
collegiate golf championship Satur-
day with a 5-and-4 victory over
Northwestern's sophomore, Manuel
de la Tore, citizen of Madrid
Spain, who anxiously is awaiting
his final United States naturaliza-
ton papers.
Tatum had lot on the ball ever
before coming here for the tour
nament or otherwise he and the
entire Stanford team would not
have been able to make the trip. The
Phi Beta Kappa student, who grad
uated as a mechanical engineer
earlier this month, came to the
rescue when it was doubtful the
school could provide enough money
because of curtailed travelling eX-
penseS.
Sandy organized golf exhibition
and a hole-in-one contest which
brought in the cash required to send
the team here to defend its title.
Then he rewarded himself by WIN
ming the individual crown, becoming
the first Stanford player to do so,
a
finals in the last four years. STAN
ford split the team championship
with Louisiana State University.
Tatum carded a 1-under par 70
in the morning to hold 3-up ad-
vantage at noon. At the end of
81 holes he still was one stroke
under regulation figures and had
worked into Sup lead as De la
Tore went five over.

NEW YORK, June 29.-Will the

mediately revived talk heard in
every major league dugout during
the past few days.
Three changes in the rules have
been proposed and all have as their
objective the gathering of funds for
Army and Navy relief and for USO.
Plan Three Most Revolutionary.
Under plan No. the series would
be extended to nine games from
the present seven with the service
funds benefltting from the extra
contests.
Plan No . has the pennant
winners deciding the world title in
seven tits before going on barn
storming tour of the country.
Most revolutionary is plan No. 3,
which would have the competing
mines play two games in the home
park of each before opening road
journey of 9 to II games, each
contest to count toward the cham
pionship.
Under that setup the deciding
battle might be played in such places
as Toledo, Denver or San Francisco
In both the latter cases, cities with
major league ball clubs would be
avoided and the wandering series
taken to places having the larger
and better minor league plants.
Major Chieftains Mum.
All the major chieftains Of big
league base ball have remained quiet.
William Harridge, president Of the
American League, and Lands were
.out" to newsmen at Chicago last
night.
At Frick's home here it was
learned he was en- route to Chicago
for a conference with Lands today.
This precedes by eight days
scheduled meeting of the big three
with the club owners at the major

Grounds on July Z.
