Key West scored all of their
runs in the first inning of Key
Vests clash when their wide-open
base running and heads up play
completely befuddled the st. Joe
defense. Only two Of the seven
runs were earned when the Ken
tuckians committed eight miscues
afield.
Pitcher Tony Clements was the
worst offender when Gibby Gates
laid down bunt to open the
game and he threw wild to first
base. He did the same thing when
Bobby Lastres bunted and Gates
romped all the way home to score
the first run of the game in rapid
fashion. Lastres ait to first base
who made wild throw to the
plate and then Cruz singled to
right. Henriquez nit a pop fly to
second base who committed a
double error when he dropped the
ball and threw wild to the plate.
Pita's sacrifice, another error
and Gates single completed the
scoring.
After the initial lapse, St. Jose
phs settled down to make it a ball
game which shaped up as a pitch
er's duel between Clements and
Key Vests George Lastres and
Don Cruz.
The Conchs garncred seven hits
of Clements while the Kentuckians
were able to connect for but three.
Kentucky gained their only run

over MBS, informed his vast lis.
tening audience that Key West had
won the state high school baseball
championship and would compete
for S. E. title at Selma.
Quite a number of major league
scouts were in the stands.
Key West executed its first
double play of the tournament. In
the fifth with Don Cruz on the
mound, the first batter singled to
right. The next batter slammed the
ball back at the pitcher, who
threw to first. G. Lastres then
whipped the ball to second base
for the double killing.
G.. Lastres was removed from
the mound after four and one-hali
innings of play. He will start
against Augusta tonight. Cruz went
to the hill and Lastres to third
base.
Lastres struck out nine, did moi
issue base on balls, gave up two
hits, no runs scored against him.
Cruz struck out two, walked three,
gave up one hit and had one run
scored against him.
After the wild first inning, the
Kentucky pitcher settled down and
held Key West scoreless the rest Of
the way.
Kentucky threatened in the Sec
ond but Lastres put out the fire
with two strikeouts.
In the seventh, Cruz had worked
Kentucky into two outs when the
Key West leftfielder failed to snag
a high fly ball, allowing the only
run of the game for Kentucky Il
score. Cruz became nervous and
hit the next batter but got Talbot
to pop out to end the battle.

Sports Roundup
BY GAYLE TALBOT

NEW 4ORk H1-AS Ben Hogan
expects to fly away to Scotland
some time this weekend to begin
practice for his climactic assault
on the British Open golf cham
pionship, the time seems right to
start conditioning Ben's millions of
American admirers for a shock.
They're going to wake up on
July 6, the day of the first qualify
ing round at Carnoustie, and dis
cover that their hero, for the first
time in his career, doesn't have
par score to shoot at. That's right
there are no par figures for
Carnoustie, not for any one of its
Is rugged holes or for all of them
put together.
We have tried to put this simple
statement of fact over before,
from both sides of the Atlantic,
but have never seen the slightest
indication that anyone paid any
attention. Already the inquiries are
trucking in as to Carnoustie's
length and par" and some of
those who wish to know win be-
come increasingly pressing as
Hogan's greatest hour nears.
Apparently it is unthinkable to
an American that a golf layout
does not have par, yet they have
managed to get along without the
gadget in Scotland and England
for couple of hundred years. They
don't want any part Of it now. The
secretary Of one of their clubs
never looks at you so blankly as
when you PROFOUND the question:
what is your part"
There is very good reason why
no effort was ever made to post
an official perfect score for the
seaside links--as opposed to inland
course" which the British
championships are played. The
reason is that playing conditions
fluctuate wildly from day to day,
even in midsummer, depending
upon the wind.
Take Carnoustie, which is laid
out over a desolate, forsaken
stretch of seashore where gopher
would have trouble scratching up
a living. Although a couple Of its
holes have been shortened little
in recent years, II still reaches out
well over 7,100 yards, distance
matched by only few courses in
this country.
A player--Hogan for example
might go out on q calm, warm
day and hit all his shots extremely
well and tour Carnoustie in 20
strokes. which happens to be the
competitive record. He might 60
out the next day, when the wind
is cutting to the bone and the white.
caps may be seen from several
tees, and come in with IS. He
would have shot just as good golf
the second day, too.
As 1t happens, two former Amer
lean stars, Ed Dudley and Henry
Picard, helped set the Carnoustie
record with 70's in the British Open
Of 1887. Big Ed, now a links pal
Of President Eisenhower. shot his
in the opening round. Two days
later he had rs. Picard jumped
in successive rounds from 10 TO
so. Henry Cotton won the event
with a 72.hole total Of go.
Because the American mind
appears to adjust itself only TO
par il probably win be necessary
for the boys who cover Hogan's
GROWING trial to dream up some
figure and agree upon 1t. Probably
they arrive at ", that being
about the right figure on a stiIl
day. But you can make money bet.
ting il isn't Carnoustie's official
par.

swift and slow, lazy water, certain
to please the most exacting fish
erman. No boats are obtainable
here. e..
Four miles up the Potomac from
Woods Lock is the mouth of the
Monocacy, .traversing. practically
the whole length of Frederick
County and offering unlimited bass
fishing possibilities. 1t has been
truthfully said that the Monocacy
is the chief bass propagation area
for the fish of the Potomac. Being
unfishable, due to muddiness most
of the season land thus unfit for
bass fishing) it is the natural
breeding area of the gamey large
and small mouth bass. At the con-
fluence of the Monocacy and Po-
tomac one may rent boat at any
time and be assured of a good
days sport, the two rivers offering
a wide variety of fishing.
Unexcelled fishing water may be
found at Noland's Ferry, three
miles west of the mouth of the
Monocacy. This well-known fishing
spot, famous in archaeological ar
chives as the home of the sanguin-
airy Tuscarora Indians, is easily
reached over hard roads, although
no boats are obtainable here.
Point of Rocks, Brunswick,
Knoxville, Weverton and Harpers
Ferry are just few of the furth-
err upstream fishing spots. Boats
may be rented by the day at Point
of Rocks, Knoxville and Weverton,
and a good days sport for you is
in the offing should you decide to
go there.
The upper Potomac's piscatorial
possibilities have never been ex-
plotted. 1t is not fished hard. You
can't go wrong if you visit any
of. the aforementioned spots. The
water teens with all kinds of
fresh water fish-you ,whet your
line in almost utter and complete
solitude in the heart of nature
"far from the maddening throng.
Truly here are places one may
"fish and forget"

Four miles west of this spot is
historic Edwards Ferry. A beauti-
full, wide expanse of ideal fishing
water is to be found here, and
boats may be rented most of the
time. :,
Above Edwards Ferry past Jen-
kin's and Harrison's Islands (the
latter being famous as the focal
point of the battle of Balls Bluff

historically famous as the northern
gateway of the Confederacy in the
War between the States. Here is

be lucky enough to rent boat
here if you get there early in the

er west, across the river from Vir-
ginia's "Red Rock, offers unpar-
alleled bass fishing. Here is both
