Demaret So Hot Some
Would Name Course
For Tourney PAGER
BY the Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE, N. Mex, June
4.-There was talk OF remaining the
University Of New Mexico golf course
today.
More ardent fans went so far as
to suggest 1t might be named for
Jimmy Demaret. the sweet swinging
Texan who registers from Ojai,
Calf.
And as the $4,000 Albuquerque
Open headed into its second round
OF medal play, Jimmy certainly was
acting pretty much as II he owned
the 6.s13-yard public links layout.
Yesterday, for example, he took
lit apart for q brilliant 65-seven
strokes under par and one fewer
than his nearest competitor in q
72-man field of pros and amateurs.
There was lot Of fine precision
golf among the runnersup. George
Schneiter of Ogden, Utah, came in
with a flashy 66. Stout Clayton
Heafner of Charlotte, N. c.. fash
ioned a 81. Another blow back were
Stewart (Skip) Alexander, Lexing-
ton, N. c., and E. J. DutchD Har-
rison of Little Rock, Ark, with 68s.
Four others posted 69s, including
Lloyd Mangrum of Chicago, who
won last years tournament here. A
dozen more players bettered par.
But most of the gallery tagged
around after the laconic Demaret
in hope he would start duplicating
his 1947 feat Of posting three sue
cessive course records-66, IS and 64,
the last still standing.
Jimmy almost did it. too. On the
391-yard No. he laid his second
shot inches from the cup, holing
out for the first of seven brides.
On the 145-yard 17th his drive hit
the pin, and he canned the second
from yard away. In all he one
putted 10 green's, once for a 20
footer. A couple of other puts
trimmed the cup but refused to drop.

high, hard one still burns a hole
in the ozone and Cullen, while
not daffy enough to be a Dodger
is smart enough to rate as one
of the towns top moundmen.
And If a fireman is needed, the
All-Stars have the genuine
article in Ben Harrell Of the D.
c. Fire Department nine.
At shortstop. the Stars will
have Roy Mcneil and George
Larrick. Mcneil was the Gin
derella boy who blossomed into
stardom at George Washington
U. after a mediocre career at
Roosevelt High School. The boys
call Larrick the Lou Boudreau of
the Recreation circuit and for
good reasons.
Jack Weigandt. FBI second
sacker, is rated one of the finest
around town by Morris. who
knows a good player when he sees
one. Recreation Leaguers vote
for Barney Wallerstein, of
course, because he also plays
with the Firemen. 5'';- --
AL Kidwell, the quiet, Ossies
Bluege type, and Jerry Zanno-
lotti, who Is a couple of squeaks
louder, will guard the far corner
for the All-Stars, and the first
base work will be we'll taken care
of by Big Bill Moore and Bernie
Good.
In the outfield, Messrs. Morris
and Collier can call on Charley
Massey, Bob Dehner, Marshall
Jacobs and Harold Krug. This
collection of f1y-hawks is rated
two steps faster than Joe Di
Maggie and just as accurate.
With a lineup like that, the
All-Star management figures it
can't lose. Barry figures the
Brewers can't be beaten. either.
One thing everybody seems
agreed on is that the fans will be
the winners. The cast COM
J prises the best baseball talent in
Washington and it's for a worthy
cause. Tickets, by the way, may
be obtained at Atlas Sports Shop,
from Bill Flester at Lowe 6S

tournaments were played. Played

Hippenstiel took to tennis as
q youngster because he was too
small and young in high school
for the other team games he
liked. He was only II when he
entered high school. and small
even for q 12-year-old. He liked
football, basket ball and baseball,
but couldn't play with the older
and bigger high school boys.
He majored in geology at the
University of California, where
he was on the tennis team.
His geology studies did him lit
tie good. AS soon as he was
graduated in 1912 he entered the
Army, and earned his wings at
Lubbock, Tex, in October Of 1913.
From there he went to England
as a pilot with the 9Th Air Force
and few IS missions over the
continent. He's in the Air Force
as a careerist now, geology far

BALTIMORE, June 4.-Roland

for being the most enthusiastic
player in the field.
Most golfers with Mackenzie
background would be bored with q
comparatively minor sectional tour

his 81 into q championship flight
qualifying berth yesterday at Five
Farms was in the manner of a kid
playing in his first tournament.
Mackenzie met Bob Harrington OF
Frederick today, and If successful In
his morning round he was to meet
the winner of the match between
Congressional Billy Shea, the Dis
trict's hope for a fifth straight title,
and Eddie Johnston, Baltimore IS
second-ranking amateur.
The question in the qualifying
round was not how you played, but
when you played. A weekend golfer
from the host club. John Quinn, was
first off the tee and posted IA over
this great golf course. He sat back
and watched the others play through

with the Air Force as his career.
Capt. Hippenstiel is the latest
bright star to be added to the
Districts tennis colony. An idea
of his ability can be had from
the No. seeding given him for
the current City of Washington
tournament sponsored by The
Star. Hippenstiel himself is q
bit surprised at such a rating
as he considers himself only a
routine or journeyman player,
but local court bigwigs think
otherwise.
Hippenstiel has been q Wash
ington resident only since last
December. but he was here for
while last year for play in the
All-Army tournament and in the
Leech Cup matches. He was run
nerup to Capt. Dave Freeman
for the Army crown. and he was
on the Army team that beat the
Navy TO for the Leech cup.
That Army team also beat the
Edgemoor Club last summer.
when Capt. Hippenstiel defeated
renowned Barney Welsh.
Also adding to his prestige was
his win in the Edgemoor Club
championships last month. Dur
ing that tourney he beat Jim
Thackara, Don Leavens and DR..

need be said about his No. l rat

The 41-year-old member of a
prominent Washington family now
is a gentleman farmer. He is a
member of Baltimore C. c., Elk
ridge and Green Spring Valley and
has been B. C. c. champion two
years running.
Roland explained his enthusiasm
by saying he always has enjoyed
every round of golf he's played,
whether for business or pleasure.
Somebody asked where he lost most
of his strokes, comparing his game
now to his most successful years.
MY driving is terrible, but 1t
never was good" Mackenzie said
after a pause. Il probably could
have been great player II I had
been able to hit my tee shots con-
sistently. but I've always sprayed
them all over the lot" Roland was
noted for his distance, but also for
his wldness.
Oakmont Respects Roland.
Oakmont, which, generally speak
ing, has the reputation as the Ma
tons toughest golf course, has rated
the players who have competed
there in National Open and Amateur
championships and other tourna-
ments. Bobby Jones is in the top
spot and right behind him Is Roland

MacKenzie's golf now is a relief
from his farming, although he ad-
