Poncho Says
Krumer Out
To Be Gar

FOREST HILLS. N. Y. July
Is R.-Pancho Gonzales, the
professional tennis kingfish.
today accused his boss, Jack
Kramer. Of trying to become Q
'czar" Of the game.
Far from pacified over o
81. 900 boost In his cut Of the
Tournament of Champions
which opened at the staid
Westside Tennis Club. Gonzales
arrived on the scene just three
hours before Tony Trabert and
Ken Rosewall crossed rackets
in the first match. still breath
ing fire.
Trabert turned back Rose
wall, Ga. l4-l2. GA. In q
match delayed more than two
hours by rain. The Frank
Sedgman-Lew Hoad match was
put OF until tomorrow. Trabert
thus automatically went into
first place with a 10 record.
Only about $500 spectators
showed up.
Won't BE Dictated To
In addition to the Hoad-
Sedgman match. Kramer will
pair Pancho Segura and Rose
wall and Gonzales and Trabert
in singles tomorrow. The dou-
bles will pair Hoad and Con-
zales and Segura and Dinny
Pals.
Gonzales got into action as
dusk approached. teaming with
Rosewan for q GO, GA vic
tory over Segura and Pals.
Let Kramer dictate to the
players all he wants TO-" Con-
gales stormed, but he's not
going to dictate to me. He
would do q lot better If he
treated the players differently.
I'm not trying to battle with
anyone. including Kramer. It's
Just q question Of getting what
I want. He is offering me the
same percentage for our tour
with Lew Hoad starting in jan
uary as he gave me In our last
tour with Ken RoSewall. And
he makes like he's doing me a
favor. How do you like that?"
Has No Contract
Gonzales said that as far as
he was concerned. he had no
contract with Kramer.
"All this talk about arbitra-
ton is silly" he continued.
Our contract expired when
he failed to pick up an option
80 days ago before the tour
with Rosewall started. 1t was
an oversight. but that's no
trouble of mine.
MY lawyer laughed when
Kramer started talking about
arbitration. Why there isn't
even an arbitration clause in
the contract.
And furthermore. let's get
this straight. came to this
tournament because my lawyer
asked me to come"
What happens If he doesn't
come to terms with Kramer
later? Will the tour with Hoad
be of?
II don't know" Pancho said.
"I'll tell you one thing, though.
I'm not budging one inch in
my demands.
1T could be that I'll start
my own tour. I talked about it
a couple of years ago with
Frank Sedgman and Pancho
Segura. But nothing came Of It."

PEA Starts Wednesday
With Usual Confusion

DAYTON, Ohio. July 10 (Pl
The seth Professional Golfers
Association cha m p onShip
starts here Wednesday with a
new formal, probably new faces
and a new influx Of spectators
and some of the same old con-
fusion that makes the PGA a
thoroughly unpredictable tour
nament.
Jackie Burke is scheduled to
defend the title he won last
year and Dick Mayer, the new
National Open champion, will
be shooting for a notable
double. A lot of other promi-
nent tournament players will
be in the field Of 1913 for the
all-match-play tournament.
- But chances are few that
young players who had hoped
to break into this exclusive
event will get a chance to play
Their status is the principal
cause of confusion.
Failed to Follow Through
At the annual PGA meeting
last winter. the delegates came
up with a possible solution to
the problem Of declining at
tendance. That was a recon-
mendation to the executive
Committee to invite a number
OF the players who were among
the leading money winners but
weren't full PGA members to
compete. The winter meeting
also set UP the new formal.
which calls for playoffs Satur-
day and Sunday to decide the
places down to eighth.
The recommendation was
taken to mean that such play

IL. and a few others would get
to try their skill at match play
against the older tourists and
club pros.
1t wasn't until the pairings
were made that most golf fol-
lowers realized the committee
hadn't followed through. Even

Sarazen Withdraws
Gene Sarazen. three-time
PGA winner and Oldest of the
10 former champions who en-
tered. notified the committee
a few days ago he had decided
not to compete. He felt the
5-day grind was too tough for
his aging legs.
Finally the prize money was
raised to $40.100-Second only
to the Tam O'Shanter World
Championship-and the win
ner's share was increased to
$4,000. When Burke beat Ted
Knoll in last years final, it was
worth only $4,000 to the winner
and $4,000 to the loser.

TEE TO GREEN
By. MERRELL WHITTLEsEY

Somebody remarked while
walking the new Hillendale
course during the Maryland
Open championship the other
day that most new golf courses
are making the game tougher
Hillendale was the example
they were using. and it's GER
tainly true here. The old Hill
lendale course was on the easy
side. but the new one is tough,
although a better layout.
In the District, Argyle, Wood
mont, and now Indian Spring.
have moved in recent years.
and the layouts on the present
sites are tougher golf courses
than the ones they left-Indian
Spring much more difficult. And
Compassionate new nine holes
will be a couple of strokes
harder than either Of the pres
ent mines.
Jack Isaacs. who at the point
Of the discussion was feeling
the long day in his 49-year-old
legs. added. And they're max
ing them longer, as well as
tougher. That's all some golf
course architects think Of, is
length"
Isaacs, who, Of course, hopes
to play SO holes several days
this week in the PGA cham
pionships, was saying In Bal
timore that he was through
playing two rounds In one day.
He has considerable support in
that thinking.

A number of the younger
fellows were complaining about
the 80 holes in one day in the
Maryland Open. Frank Tenney
the White Flint pro, was tied
for the lead after 81 holes, but
eventually tied for eighth.
Frank. who's about 81, said
he simply was too tired to
think on the back nine. Re
member, I'm a little guy and
I have to put so much into
every swing that ! tire ahead of

Jay Randolph is only 20 and
weighs 215, but he too was
dragging. He started using a
club longer in the afternoon
because he had lost his power
Fifteen or 20 years ago, the
entire local invitation circuit
called for two rounds a day
after the qualifying round, but
now all the invitations and
member guests are at 10 holes
a day. Only the District, Mary.
land and Mid-Atlantic cham
pionships call for two rounds.
The touring pros play one
round a day except in the Open,
which has the two-round Sat.
urday windup. and the PGA,
which calls for So holes after
the first day. And Cary Middle
coff, Ben Hogan and Jimmy
Demaret are passing UP the
PGA this week for just that
reason.
Courses are becoming longer
and tougher. but golfers are
moving in the opposite direc-
ton. There not only are pro-
tests about playing So holes in
one day. an increasing number
