Sneod Leads by Stroke
In White Sui phur Open

WHITE SULPHUR, SPRINGS,
w. Va, May IL (P).-As long as
Sam Snead isn't called upon to
make long puts he undoubtedly
lis going to be the golfer to beat
III the White Sulphur Springs
Open.
Snead showed yesterday he
still is a deadly shooter from off
the tee and far away. His APP
proaches to the cup were so close
that only once did he have to
make a long putt for a birdie,
although he bagged five.
That was the last hole where
he dramatically rolled in a Is
footer for a five-under-par IS,
and the first-round lead. His
other brides were from one foot
on the 18th. eight inches on the
14th, three feet on the seventh
and four feet on the third.
BY contrast, Mike Fetchick of
Yonkers, N. Y, had to hold a hot
Iputter to get the same number
of brides and one DOGGY to come
in one stroke behind Snead.
Fetchick had to sink three
puts of around 10 feet, another
of Is and his closest birdie was
five feet away. He rolled his last
one IL feet right up to the lip of
the cup on the last hole to miss
tying Snead. He also had one
