The proposed rate jumps would
be over and beyond increases al

can-cOntrOlled 8Oth Congress last
June. These rates, which become
effective January 1, affect nearly
all classes of mail except first and
second.
Air Mail To Be Six Cents
Among other changes, air mail
goes back to 6 cents after 20 months
at 5 cents; special delivery rises
from 13 to Is cents; and fees are
raised on money orders, postal
notes, COD packages, insurance and
registered mail.
Donaldson told reporters the new
January l rates should provide an
additional revenue of $4,000, 900.
But he said pay raises for postal
employees and higher transpOrta-
tiOn costs will more than Offset that
extra income.

it was tricky course and after

an 81. He shanked a wedge shot,
three-putted four greens, was
out of bounds twice and mis-
judged shots all day.

Sour Hogan Sidesteps
Formal Prize Award
After Denver Win

DENVER. Aug. 23.-Mechanical
Ben Hogan was richer In cash to-
day-but not In popularity with
Denver fans-as he pocketed the
$2,150 first prize from the Denver
Open golf tournament and went
after more money In the Salt Lake
City Open.
The Hershey, Pa, better. who
stretched his 1913 earnings to ST.
ATT yesterday as he won his seventh
major tournament in o row, ell
NAKED a poor week in public rela-
tions when he failed to show up for
the formal presentation Of prizes.
Hogan finished the 72-hole, $12 500
tournament with >270, which was
18-under-par for the Wellshire
Municipal Course, but at the mo-
ment didn't seem good enough to
win. For back on the 17th tee was
Freddie Haas, jr., Of New Orleans,
needing only par scores for the last
two holes to win the first prize.
IT can't win" Hogan growled as
he came of the 18th green and i'm
nediately afterward he left the
course and went to his hotel.
Haas Game Breaks.
But the 32-year Haas, who
had been out in front for two
rounds in a battle for his first
major tournament victory In two
years as a pro, couldn't stand the
pressure and went to pieces on the
18th.
His tee shot was In the rough,
an approach shot struck q Specta-
tor, and before Haas could get the
ball down he had taken five blows,
! over par.
That left him needing birdie on
the 18th to tie Hogan. But the
former National college champion
couldn't manage that, either. He
missed a f1ve-foot putt for birdie
that would have sent the tourna-
ment into playoff and took par
S that gave the first prize to Hogan.
At the presentation ceremony,
mayor .Quigg Newton called for
Hogan to award him his check, but
the fans waited in vain for him to
appear and the money finally was
accepted by a PGA official.
It had been bad week all around
for Hogan. His friends said he had
planned to pass up. the Denver
tournament to take rest, but they
talked him into coming.
Obviously in a sour mood, he re-
fused to pose for newspaper photo
grapher. When a fan requested an
autograph, he turned his back and
walked away. He refused to be in
terviewed by sports broadcaster.
Hogan Irks Press, Radio.
His action brought him panning
by the Denver press and radio, but
his golf game still was on the terrific
side as Hogan added to the second
largest bankroll on the 1948 pro
circuit.
In second place the first three
days of the tournament. when he put
together 18-hole scores of 66, 81
and 10, Hogan fired a 81 in the final
round, under par, to overcome a
two-stroke deficit and move into
the winners circle.

the week yesterday with 10 after
earlier rounds of 81. 65 and SO.
