them through further speculative

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 25-The

Ben Hogan ranks with the favor

titles to his credit here. He won
in 1946 and 1947.
To do it again he'll have to

another Texas product. Jimmy
Demaret, who seeks his third
straight Phoenix Open title. 1t
was in 1949 that Jimmy beat Ben
in a playof for the top award Of
$4,000.
On his way to Fort Worth after
that tourney, Hogan had his
near-fatal accident. His return to
the links and his 1850 National
Open victory easily won him dis
tinction as the best golfer of the
year and also the comeback
champion.
Last year was the repeat for
Demaret who edged Sam Snead
on the final day.

Another Texan, Byron Nelson,

Redskins Announce
Retention Of Ball
For One Season

Herman Ball was reappointed
head coach of the Redskins to-
day in a move that surprised no
one after two months of uncer-
tainty during which an unsuccess-
full search was made for a
successor with a national coach
ing reputation.
General Manager Dick McCann
said Ball. who has no signed con-
tract with the club. would head
the team for the 1851 season. FL
nancial terms were not disclosed,
but 1t is believed Ball will receive
the same salary as last year when
he was reported to have been
paid $12,500.
McCann issued the following
statement:
"As you know, there had been
some thought of a possible change,
but at no time was this change
to be made Just for the sake of
a change. If Herman Ball was
to be replaced his successor had
to be a better man.
His reappointment was greatly

Fesler, who only six weeks ago said
he was finished with big-time
football. today is football coach
at Minnesota.
The man who quit as coach at
Ohio State last month summed it
all up with one sentence: "You
can't take 10 years of experience
and whatnot and throw them out
the window"
Fesler's appointment as Gopher
coach surprised Big Ten followers
He accepted a three-year contract
at an annual salary of $4,000,
81 500 more than received by Ber-
ME Bierman, the man he sue
ceeded.
Surprise over Fesler's action was
heightened by the manner Of his
leaving Ohio State.

Bierman's successor, though many
coaches were interviewed and
many names brought forward.
Fesler took the job over the
telephone. He did not meet face

Fesler will take over at Minne-

last season. They tied one and
lost four. They also lost three nom
conference games. Fesler told
friends in Columbus he expected
to make a quick visit to his new
camp within the next two weeks.
Two other Ohio State football
mentors also will come to Minne-
sofa. Fesler said he is bringing

Fisher, backfield coach. with him.
After the appointment was an
nounced in Minneapolis, Fesler
made it clear he did not apply for
the job. "They approached me
a week or so ago." he said.
The coach said the only thing
wrong with his lucrative real estate
job was that II just kept thinking
about the things I had done 50
long and like to do so much
working with boys and football.
I decided that football was my
