Penna, Dodson, Little
Men Of Golf, Point
For Durham Prize

DURHAM, N. c., Mar. 3i.-Tyo
of COLTS little men''-Tony Penna
and Leonard Dodson-unwilling 10
wait for Inauguration of the Goggin
plan, set out today to cut them
selves a slice of the prize money in
the 1886 Durham Open.
The two happy-go-lucky pros
Tony wears a beret and Dodson af-
fects hat with the brim turned up
in front-were the only ones in a
field of 80 to break the Hope Valley
Country Club course 10 par in yes
terday's opening round.
Tiny Tony from Dayton, Ohio,
paced the field with 2-under SO.
Leonard had SO.
That started a scramble for the
record book, as all the better-known
marksmen were at 10 or II, two
ior three shots off the pace, but
within easy striking distance with 81
holes to go.
The book reveals that Penna last
won a tournament in 1888, at Kansas
City. He tied Jimmy Demaret in
the Western Open at Houston in
1910 but lost in the playoff. He
led the field with a 68 in the first
round of the Miami Open last fall
but his best finish this year was
third at Gulfport, Miss.
DodSons last tourney triumph was
in 1941 when he beat Ben Hogan
and Dutch Harrison in a playoff
for the Oakland Open crown. He
has been consistently far down in
the money list this year, among the
players whom Willie Goggin hopes
to help by his proposed redistribu-
tion of prize money.
Yesterday Dodson was the first
man off the tee. He breeZed around
in only 2 hours 25 minutes.
The Greensiders were still pick
ing the winner to come from one
of the big fellows: Byron Nelson,

Allen, New York representative of the Skinner an Eddy com pany, winch is interested n ship building, fisheries and other un- dertaklngs, arrived in Kod ak on MT Skinner's yacht, the MS Janidore, Wednesday.
 They were accompanied by J. Burke, Standard Oil representa- tive in Los Angeles, who confer red with Merrill Coon, local agent. The men were accOmpan- jed by their wives. L. w. Baker, general manager of Alaska Steamship, made the trip with them from Seattle but remained in Anchorage on business and will reioin them at Ketchikan.
 Any plans of the company for Alaska depeDd on postwar dew elopment, Mir Skinner said when interviewed here, but he declared his company is laying plans for a great influx of tourists and that he expects great strides in devel- opment of Alaska after the war.
 His company is planning on 3 fast passenger steamships after the war, he said, which will prob ably ply d 4-day route from Seattle 10 Whittier. Other vessels will give service to ports missed by these bo .ls, including Col dova, Valio1, Seward and Kodiak.
 Speaking of Kodiak, Mir. SkiD- ner said service in this and tbe Aleutian area will depend oD the amount of military installations maintained in peacet me, and on whether his company IS the car rier for military freight and pas sengers. Military traffic on the Alaska Steamship line would mean much more frequent ser vice here, he pointed out. He expressed himself strongly as hoping traffic will warrant more than the former shuttle seruceI to Kodiak.
 While here the members of the party were entertained at lunch con in the Victory cafe banquet room by Mir. and Mrs. Walter Sipprell, agents for the company here, on Thursday noon, and Thursday evening MT. and Mrs. Merrill Coon entertained ih their honor at dinner at the Club Montmartre.
