Snead and MiddIecofi
Have Opposite Goals
BY the Associated Press

NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y, May
16.-An oddity of the still-young
1852 golf season is that Sam
Snead, the PGA champion, is
starting an all-out effort to win
the National Open title and Cary
Middlecoff. who won the Open
three years ago, is cunning for
the PGA championship.
OF course, neither is averse to
accepting the money and prestige
that goes with either champion
ship. but their prime obiectives
seem to be just the opposite. And
both were hot yesterday as. with
Claude Harmon, they moved out
in front of the field in the Wyka-
CYL Round Robin.
Snead is a three-time winner
of the PGA and the last Ameri-
can to win the British Open. but
he never has captured the top
honor in American golf.
Middlecoff was just an appren-
tice according to PGA rules when
he won the Open in 1949. Only
this spring he completed the five
years pro service required for PGA
membership.
Snead, no longer a blow-up guy
at the age of 38, has been play
ing remarkably steady golf since
his mid-winter layoff. He shot
his way into the lead in the
$4,000 round robin tournament
lat Wykagyl yesterday with
blazing round of 34-33-67. TAX
ing five strokes off par, Sam piled

odd round-robin scoring system.

Nixon Says Campaign
OF Lies Centers on
His Wife and Family
By the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 31.-Sen-
ator Nixon swung into a day of
campaigning in his home county
today after calling on Gov. Ste
venson to say whether he would
retain Dean AcheSon as Secretary
of State if elected President.
The Republican vice preSiden-
tial candidate also charged that
his wife and family had been in
eluded in a campaign "of char
acter assassination in the worst
low-blow Truman tradition"
Charges Personal Attack.
Senator Nixon said in state
ment that he was recently told
that President Truman informed
a group on his last visit to Cali
fornia that an all-out personal
attack would be launched against
me during the last week OF the
campaign"
THE strategy was to have a
new false charge issued each day
so that the truth could never
catch up with the falsehood," he
added. 1T is obvious that this
scheme is under way"
He accused the Democratic Ma
tional Committee of issuing "a
lying attack against my mother,
father and brother" last Tuesday. |
Then, he said, the Democratic 4
national chairman issued another
statement the same day raising
questions about the Senator's in \
come. And on Wednesday the |
State Department issued state \
ment which sought to give a \
sinister connotation to routine 4
senatorial Office letter" he had 4
written.
To-day a syndicated gossip, who /
peddles the line of the Democratic 1
National Committee, charged my |
wife with perjury" Nixon added 1
The Senator did not identify the
columnist in his statement. Later \
his press secretary. James BasSett, \
said, "it was Drew Pearson he had
in mind"
Denies False Tax Paper.
He said he had authorized the /
Los Angeles County assessor to
release information to disprove
the assertion that Mrs. Nixon
filed a false affidavit for a vet |
eran's tax exemption in order to
obtain for us a $50 tax reduction"
He declared neither he nor his
wife has ever filed a claim for
veterans exemption.
Senator Nixon made his demand 4
that Gov. Stevenson state his plans 1
for Secretary Acheson, in speech |
at San Diego that concluded a day /
of campaigning in Southern Cali |
fornia communities.
IT here and now call upon Ste
venSon to quit hedging and give |
a yes or no answer to this ques- 4
tion," he said. "If he answers
that Acheson is to go, call upon |
him to indicate one instance in
which his policies differ from the
tragic Acheson policy"
The Senator's schedule today
Included open air meetings in Long
Beach. Inglewood, Santa Monica.
Beverly Hills. Van Nuys, Burbank,
Pasadena and Alhambra. He
speaks tonight at a rally in the
Hollywood Legion Stadium and
leaves later for Sheridan, Wyo.
