Hunt, Tennis tile Dark Horse,
Awaits Orders TO Go to Sea

FOREST HILLS, N. Y, Sept. A.
Apparently a good way to get your
self sent to sea is to win the national
singles tennis championship.
That's what happened to 1t. Ted
Schroeder, who won the title last
year. He's an officer on one of
Uncle Sans destroyers now and
couldn't defend his title because he
has to spend too much time at sea.
Then there's 1t. Joe Hunt, also a
Navy officer, who hasn't won the
title yet but who may stand pretty
good chance.
Hunt, former Davis Cup doubles
player and once ranked No. 4 ma
tlonally, stayed the biggest upset of
the current Championship yesterday
when he administered an 8-5. G.
b-3, trouncing to Corpl. frankie
Parker of the Army Air Force, the
top-seeded player.
Awaits Sea Duty Order.
Joe, who hasn't heard yet whether
the recent order advanced him from
Junior grade to a full lieutenancv.
has been in New York about a week
waiting for his orders for sea duty
and expects to receive them soon
after the tournament ends Monday.
Like most of the service contin-
gent, which almost has dominated
the mems division this year. Hunt
hasn't had any too much practice.
But yesterday he had just the game
to blow Parker off the court and. if
ne plays the same way, he should
dispose of fourth-seeded Bill Talbert

That's just-the way it appeared
from the stands. For a while Hunt
tried baseline duel with the court
wise Californian. Then he adopted
forcing game, smashing powerful
drives to Frankie's weak forehand
and rushing the net and Parker's
game promptly cracked.

The other mems semifnal, to be

Nelson, AiIing, Is Ace
As He and McSpaden
Lead Links Duos
BY CHARLES CHAMBERLAIN,
Associated Press Sports Writer,

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, Sept. A.
Byron Nelson Is great without a
stiff neck. But right now he's play
ing his best golf of the year with one.
He slept in draft at Toledo and
couldn't turn his head to look out
OF the train window en- route to the
Golden Valley invitational best-ball
matches.
Without time for a massage, he
rushed to the first tee yesterday,
shook hands with his partner, jug
McSpaden, then went on such a par
wrecking spree that he had to con-
fess when 1t was all over that 1T
was the best round I've ever had
in my life"
Used Only One Ball.
That's saying lot, for Byron has
had one of the most sensational
careers In the games history. But
with the exception of one shot,
which plunked into a creek and cost
his a stroke, Nelson was as straight
as desert toad from tee to green
and putted as if following a groove.
And I used the same ball all the
way" he added. Couldn't afford to
change to new one, simply because
I haven't enough of them to take
the chance"
With Nelson getting a 5-under-
par 80 on the first nine unassisted,
he and McSpaden came in with a
best-ball medal Of 62-11 strokes
under the standard count-and won
four holes in matchplay competi-
ton from the formidable combina-
ton of Craig Wood and Jimmy
Demaret.
On the method of scoring, Nelson
McSpaden led the other seven top
notch teams into today's 36 holes
with plus-4 count. Wood -Demaret
were at the bottom Of the field with
a minus 4.
Nelson Shoots Unofficial So.
Byron posted an unofficial SO, two
strokes off the course record. On
two consecutive holes of the second
nine he was conceded puts of four
and five feet when his partner holed
out to halve and win. Otherwise
Nelson was in every cup, he and jug
needing only 20 puts between them
The leaders faced Buck White and
KY Laffoon in today's first 18 holes
and Bill Kaiser and Johnny Revolta
in the afternoon trip.
Other front runners, with plus-1
ratings, were Willie Goggin -Toney
Penna, Lloyd Mangrum- Sam Byro
and Harry Cooper-Pvt. Chick Har.
bert.
The 6,582-yard Golden Valley lay.
out is regarded good championship
test, but the eight teams combined
to slash total of SO strokes from
par with collection of Sc brides
one eagle and three bogies.
