BLAZING BEN' HOGAN BURNS
 UP RIDGEMOOR
Eight Brides and One Eagle on 62 Card; Mike
 Turnesa Leads
BY TOMMY DIVINE United Press Staff CorresuOndentl


 Chicago, June 20-(UP)--A cry of "here comes Hogan" sounded across the Ridgemoor Country Club today to field of 96 golfers beginning the third round of the Hale America tournament.
 The Hogan was "BIazing Ben" of Hershey, Pa, who leap-frogged over the field yesterday by cutting 10 strokes from par and breaking the course record with round of 62. That record, which equalled the best competitive effort of Hogan's bril- liant career enabled Ben to hop from a 15-way tie for 49th place, where he started the day, into sole possession of the runner-up position.
 The only player In front of Hogan at the halfway point of the tourna- mept-the war-year successor to the National Open-was Mike Turnesa, the swarthy ElmSford, N. Y, mem Der of golf's clan of par-busting brothers.
 Although not as hot as Hogan yesterday, Mechanical Mike" added a six under par round of 66 to his 65 of the initial round for a 36-hole mark of 131.
 Watta Round!
 Hogan had eight birdies and one eagle on his card and never once slipped over par. He was out in 30 and back In 32.
 A stroke behind Hogan. in 8 tie for third place, were Horton Smith of Pinehurst, N. O., and long hitting Lawson Little of Monterey, Cal. Smith had a 67 yesterday and Little a 68.
 Tied at 136 were Herman Barron of White Plains, N. Y. and Jimmy Demaret of Bedford, Mich. Both were considered serious title threats because of their consistency. Their totals were compiled by duplicate rounds of 68.
 Otey Crisman, Selma, Ala, public links operator and the co-leader with Turnesa at the end of the first IS, slipped to par 72 yesterday for an aggregate of 137. Tied with him at that figure were Mike Sipula, dark-horse entry from Ottawa, H., and Denny Shute of Chicago.
 Low amateurs in the field were Milford Wehrle of Racine, Wis: William Dear of West Orange, N. Y.; and Johnny Dawson of Holly wood, Cal, all of whom have 138's. Bracketed with them are Dick Metz of Oak Park, I'll. and Harold (Jug) McSpaden of Philadelphia, Pr.
 Bobby Jones of Atlanta, one-time holder of every major title, took 75 yesterday and an aggregate of 145.
