Yankee Influx Brings
Boosting Of Prices
In Mexican Loop
BY the Assoeioted Press

MEXICO CITY, April 6.-Jorge
Pasquel, millionaire Mexican League
president. who spends lavishly on
United States major league base
ball talent, said today that the
price of admission will be boosted
for all games in Mexico City.
Pasquel said the new scale will
be from 275 pesos (55 cents U. 81
In the sun. to $50 pesos (sl.30) for
choice shade seats. Previously the
prices were $50 to pesos.
The baseball head said the prices
were necessary because of increased
expenses as the result of co act
ing United States players.
Baseball is an all-year So in
Mexico. Many players in Pasquel's
Mexican League join the Winter
League when the summer season
ends.
The Metropolitan Winter League
which last season included Mexico

But in the final analysis, these

AUGUSTA. Ga. April 6.-Herman
Keiser wavered and wobbled today,
and then the ex-sailor pulled him.
self together on the tough finishing
holes of the Augusta national course
and fought off the challenge of the
country's greatest golfers in the
third round of the Masters tourna-
ment.
Shooting an eagle, a birdie and
three pars on the last five holes. the
Cinderella figure from Akron Ohio,
who never before even threatened
to win major event, blazed home
with a one under-par II to main
tain his 5-stroke lead. Keiser vir-
tually clinched first money of $4,000.
With his great opening rounds of
69-68, Keiser boasted 54-hole
total of 208. He was five blows in
front of that famed little fighter,
Ben Hogan. who grimly toured the
Masters course in SO shots to over
take group of lesser lights and
jump into second position at 213.
Hogan has done a great number
of notable things but few of the
thousands who watched Keiser con-
quer his nerves in the closing stages
today and finish with brilliant,
courageous golf, would be willing to
bet that Ben could gain five shots
on him in tomorrow's single round.
A 10 on his final round would give
the blue-eyed, slow-moving Keiser
tournament record, breaking the
present mark of 279 set by Ralph
Guldahl in 1889.
All Others Out Of 1t.
None of the others could be con-
ceded even an outside chance, even
| if Keiser should treat himself to q
regular Kikini of an explosion. 49,
A stroke behind Hogan and six
behind the amazing leader were
Clayton Heafner, Jim Ferrier and
Fred Haas, each with 214 shots. Fer
rier and Haas each scored 68s today

to tie at ZIG for 81 holes. 1t was the

runner-up to Keiser when the
third round began, was out of the
contention a short time later after
posting a 70. Toney Penna, an
other of Keiser's pursuers for two
rounds, ballooned to an 80.
Thus those players who might
have been in position to grapple
with the Akron astonisher today
fell back, while only Hogan doggedly
fought his way to a place where he
might be in position to take ad-
vantage of the ex-sailor's lapses in
the closing round-if any.
There was no sign that Keiser in
tended to crack. Although he was
less accurate with his drives today

rounds, he proved himself cool in

his partner, were four or five two.
