Nelson Breaks Record
To Win Atlanta Tilt

ATLANTA, Ga, April g. WD -
Byron Nelson set new all-time
tournament record today when he
won the $4,000 Atlanta Iron Lung
golf championship with a Y hole
total of 263.
Nelson, tall Toledo star, shot his

in war bonds.
But the gallery of some 5000 fol
lowed Nelson today. They knew he
had to card IS on his final round
to break Woods record and they
crowded the green and tree-linec
fairWay to watch every stroke.
Nelson started off slowly witt
par on the first two holes and q
boyle four on the short third-s
l40-yard affair. His iron shot miss
ed the green and he had to come
out of a sand trap. Then he two
putted for the boyle.
After taking a par five on the
long 500-yard fourth hole, Nelson
settled down to play unbeatable
and record smashing golf.
Using his woods and irons mas
terfully, he scored brides on thu
fifth, eighth, ninth, 18th, 18th ane
18th holes.
Jimmy Demaret of Corpus Chris
ii Tex, who went three out of thu
four rounds with Nelson, said tina
the champion had "played flaw

he said he only saw Nelson make
two bad shots.
On the final hole-a 230-yart

bounced off the green, and he tool
a boyle four. But he could affore
the extra stroke and still breal

GRID GROUP SETS
l2-CLUB LEAGUE

NEW YORK, April S.-REThe
National Football League turned
conservative today in attempting
to set up a plan for future sched-
ules as the clubs owners contin-
ued to struggle with the pressing
problem of what to do with the
the Brooklyn Tigers in 1916.
Taking time out from the lengthy
discussions that were reported to
be making some Roadway" to-
ward merging the Tigers and the
Boston Yanks and toward shift
ing the Tigers into New York S
Yankee Stadium at some future
date, the gridiron magnates agreed
to work out a permanent schedule
plan for a 12-club league.
Under this plan, which the
league hopes to put into operation
in 1916, each club would meet
each of the others once every sea-
son and in addition would play a
second game against one rival.
This would enable such traditional
enemies as the Chicago Bears
and Green Bay Packers and the
New York Giants and Washington
Redskins, to play on home-and-
home basis. The league now has
eleven members and has not been
able to work out a schedule for
this number.
Although the move to expand in
1916 was interpreted in some
quarters as a move to meet COM
petition from projected postwar
leagues, the club owners and Com
missioner Elmer Layden Layden
have agreed for several years that
12-club league was the ideal set
up. A proposal for postwar expan-
sion to 16-club circuit, operating
in two divisions, met with a rather
chilly reception.
For the 1915 season, the league
probably will operate with ten
teams by combining Brooklyn and
Boston. 1t appeared certain today
that this merger would be made
as soon as details could be work.
ed out 50 as to satisfy three clubs
concerned. the New ork Giants al.
so are involved because of the
Tigers plan to shift to Yankee
Stadium. This would require a
waiver of territorial rights by the
Giants.
The league has operated with
only ten teams for the past two
years, combining Pittsburgh and
Philadelphia in 1913 and Pitts
burgh and the Chicago Cardinals
last season.
Layden also announced that sew
eral applications for franchises
had been received but that none
will be accepted for 1945. He re-
fused to reveal the cities or the
names Of the applicants.
