afternoon round of the Phoenix
Open Golf Tournament final

that Byron Nelson had finished
the 70 holes Of play with a 273, nine
under par. and appeared to be the

would have to birdie the last two
holes to gain tie.
With the pressure on, he rammed
down a 40-foot putt from the edge
OF the 18th green. then dropped a
6-footer on the 18th for the brides
which delayed first prize presenta-
ton.
They were to tee off this afternoon
in an 18-hole playoff for the first
prize of $1,000 War Bond. The
loser will receive a $3.50 bond.
McSpaden, who carded a sensa-
tional record 81 in the morning
round, started afternoon play with
a 3-stroke lead over the field, but
wobbled on the second nine and
took three bogies, finishing with 68.
Meanwhile, Nelson, who could do no
better than II in the morning round,
made the afternoon circuit in 65.
Sam Byrd of Detroit and Craig
Wood of Mamaroneck, N. Y, won
