friend called the other night tc

a couple Of guests. The first was
Pancho Gonzales, the tennis
champion. who was explaining
his recent temperamental out
burst in Australia.
Allen said something about
having another hot-tempered
man waiting to be interviewed
and it turned out to be Tommy
Bolt, who has been on leave from
the golf tour because of ar
attack Of bursitis.
Allen was asking Bolt about
his club-throwing and the golfer
pleaded not guilty. He said i,
was all part of a campaign
started by "a friend of mine on
The Washington Star, MerrelI
Nv. Whittlesey." Bolt said it was
a carry-over from the days when
he tipped a few clubs in Italy
and when he started winning as
a pro this departments memory
was too good.
Bolt, claiming to be much mis-
understood, put the blame right
here. Thanks for the plug
Tommy, but fans have seen you
smash those sticks from ,coas,
to coast. And I saw you chew
that driver grip down to the
steel in the Eastern Open in
Baltimore after hitting one out
of bounds.
But I'd still rather watch Bolt
play golf than most Of the dull
young pros WHO measure color
in golfer by the hues in his
socks.

TEE 10 G REIN
BY MERRELL WHITTLEsEY

About this time of year, when
the touring golf pros are halfway
to the Masters tournament, it's
appropriate to take a look and
see whether a trend has deveI-
oped, as they say during the
political campaigns.
The closest to a trend is the
way the prize money is funneling
into the pockets of Jay Hebert
pronounced A-Bear), an ex-
tremely handsome 33-year-old
who is the hotshot of the tour.
Officially. according to the
somewhat stuffy system the PGA
uses for figuring the money
winners. Hebert is second to Doug
Ford. But unofficially, where the
$500 top money he pocketed in
Bing Crosby's tourna m n {
counts, Hebert is on top.
1t must have been seven or
eight years ago that Lew Wor-
sham said Hebert would be heard
from, and loudly. Jay, full name
Junius Joseph, was working for
Worsham at Oakmont at the
time. Hebert had a masters
degree in business administra-
ton from Louisiana State and
had served in the Marines as a
lieutenant.
WorSharn, we recall, was talk
ing about the young pros moving
up. and he said that in a few
years Hebert might be the best.
At the age Of 80, Hebert is
not one of the kids who hits a
hot streak and then founders.
He's a sound golfer with almost
two full years on the circuit
He was the 22d money winner
in 1855 and 23d last year with
l$l3,139. That money wouldn't
shake Wall Street, but he was
living nicely and learning.
This could be Hebert's year
He flashed home with a 81 in
the Los Angeles Open and passed
everybody but Ford. winning fat
second-place money of $3.50.
He had the best last round of
lCrosby's clambake. and broke a
tie with Cary Middleton for top
money of $4,000.
Hebert was in the money at
Caliente and Phoenix, passed up
Tucson, and finished with 81
last week to win the $4,000 top
prize in the Texas Open.
You have to like the way He
bert is winning by beating the
ears of the opposition with the
big money at stake on the last
day. That's the kind of pressure
golf that the comparative stran-
gers leading the early rounds
have not been playing.
Jay has a kid brother. Lionel,
who has been cashing some
checks. Lionel is 20, a part

Iranquilized'
Driver Fined

Judge Harry L. Walker of
Municipal Court yesterday passed
judgment in the case Of Earl A.
Brengle after two trials in which
both juries were unable to de-
eide whether a man who took
tranquilizing drugs was under
the influence of alcohol after
drinking one bottle Of beer.
The charge in the first trial
was driving while drunk. In the
second. q reckless driving charge
was added to the driving while
drunk charge. After the second
trial. the drunken driving charge
was dropped. Mr.. Brengle pleaded
guilty to the charge Of reckless
driving.
SIS Fine Imposed
Judge Walker imposed O fine
Of $75. He indicated he would
have been willing to put Mr..
Brengle on probation, but his
attorney already had said his
client preferred q clear-cut de-
cision now.
Attorney Gilbert r. Giordano
told Judge Walker. before SEN
fencing. II think my client has
already been severely punished, I"
and said he felt Mr.. Brengle had
suffered much humiliation as q
result Of the trials.
+. Mr.. Brengle. 81, was arrested
on December 2. He testified at
the trials that he drank one bot
tie Of beer soon after taking a
tranquilizing drug and was ar
rested half an hour later.
Doctors Differ
Doctors testimony at both
trials conflicted as to the ex-
tent Of the effect Of the alcohol
In the beer on the drug.
DR.. I. Phillips Frohman told
the jury during the trials that
q small amount Of alcohol could
have speeded the action Of the
drug to make the defendant
seem dizzy. unsteady and drunk.
DR.. Oscar B. Hunter, jr., a
prosecution witness. declared
this effect was possible but
highly unlikely.
DR.. Frohman also testified Mr..
Brengle was taking a tranquil
izing drug regularly at the time
of his arrest. Mr.. Brengle told a
reporter yesterday he had been
taking the drugs because he was
suffering from shingles.
