Greiner Is Talk
OF Denver Field
As Open Starts
BY the Associated Press

DENVER, Aug. ia blue rib
bon field of 90 golfers, including
most of the leading par busters
on the pro circuit, teed off today
in quest of the Denver Open tour
nament's sl2,500 in cash prizes.
The defending champion, Lew
Worsham of Pittsburgh, is not en-
tered.
The talk of the galleryites on
this first day of the 72-hole grind
at Wellshire Municipal Course was
Otto Greiner of Baltimore, Md,
the comparatively unknown pro
who forced Jim Demaret of Ojai,
Calf, into a playoff in last weeks
$4,000 st. Paul Open.
Greiner, a 29-year-old Navy vet
eran, who had planned to quit
the pro circuit until his St. Paul
showing encouraged him to con-
tinue, was still red-hot in yester-
days practice round.
He toured the 6,768-yard Wellshire
layout in 66 strokes, 6 under par.
1t was the best performance of
any player and the big name golf
ers were impressed.
Hes a real conner" said De-
maret, who should know after his
narrow two-stroke victory over
Greiner in the st. Paul playoff
Excitement was injected into yes
terday's preliminaries when a
bleacher section overlooking the 18th
green collapsed, injuring about a
dozen spectators. Only one, Mrs
Eileen Overton, 20, of Denver, was
hurt seriously. She was reported
to have a brain conclusion.

NEWPORT. R. l., Aug. 19.-After

Czech Davis Cuppers
Highly Hopeful Of Win
lover Australians

BROOKLINE. Mass. Aug. 49,
Confident that its ace, Jaraslov
Drobny, would be able to make his
smashing southpaw service produce
its customary baflling backspins. the
Czechoslovakian Davis Cup tennis
team today had high hopes OF
squeezing past the favored Austria
liam forces in the interzone finals at
Longwood.
The Czechs. favored by the draw
for today's opening singles matches,
expect to get of to a flying start
for Drobny has been paired with
Billy Sidwell, a new member of the
Australian team, and vladimir
Cernik drew Adrian Quist, the Aus
tralian captain.
During yesterdays drawing, made
by Massachusetts, 1t. Gov. Arthur
w. Coolidge in the Statehouse IN
Boston, Quist gave the Czechs
further encouragement by admit
ting that the twisted ankle of Colin
Long, his doubles partner, was re-
spending to treatment so slowly
that he would not name Australia S
tandem fors tomorrow's doubles
match before the 24-hour deadline
Long suffered his injury during
last weeks Eastern grass court
tournament at Orange, N. j., and
he has been forced to favor it during
all practice matches here this week
II the experienced Long is un-
available, Quist can call upon either
Sidwell, who has yet to be subjected
TO Davis Cup pressure, or Geof1
Brown.
The Czechs figure their Drobny
and Cernik can top any new Aus
tralian combine for second VIC
tory. Then, provided Drobny can
defeat Quist in one of the Saturday
singles matches, they will move into
the challenge round against the
cup-defending American team at
Forest Hills, N. Y.
On his European form, Drobny
rates above both Quist and Sidwell
as singles player. But since he
arrived here, he has not been able
to control his strokes on grass as
accurately as he usually does on
European clay courts.
Cernik also has had his troubles
getting satisfactory bounces on turf,
a playing surface that the Aus
Lralians find to their liking. But
Drobny seems most affected by the
change from clay to grass, for such
a switch appears to bother left
handlers much more than orthodox
swingers.

Fierst was about to enter the green
Oldsmobile sedan when police ar
rested him.
States Attorney Bernard ]. Wells
OF Baltimore was to hold q confer
ence during the day to determine
whether Fierst will be prosecuted
there or delivered to Washington or
st. Mary's County authorities.
Matuszak was questioned first in
q routine fashion because Of his con-
nection with Lewis. Later it was
ascertained that his fingerprints ap-
peared on car police said was used
in the Darby robbery here.
Also Questioned in Staying.
Fierst also was being questioned
about the staying last July of Peter
j. lingo, a Baltimore night club
bouncer, whose body was found in
his car. He had been shot four
times.
Baltimore police said Fierst had
been identified in the holdup of a
st. Marys County tavern November
10, netting 5000 In cash and $2,700
in jeWelry.
Matuszak was sentenced June IT.,
1887, under the name of Melton to
serve 10 years for the attempted
robbery OF Baltimore haberdashery.
Fferst, who was released in July,
1947, after serving eight years OF
a 12-year sentence, was not a parolee
as reported earlier, but a conditional
releasee, the United States Board OF
Parole said today.
He was released through regular
processes of law because OF credit
for good behavior, but like a parolee
was required to report periodically
until his sentence term expires. The
Parole Board, however, was not re-
sponsible for his release.
