HOT SPRINGS. Ark. May
IL R.-The 36-hole grind was
hard on 3S-year-old julius
Boros. but the phlegmatic
workman from Mid Pines, N.
c., saved a little bit for when
he needed it and won the
$4,000 Hot Springs Open golf
tournament here yesterday.
Boros scored his first tour
nament victory since he won
the World championship at
Tam O'Shanter in 1855 by
sinking birdie puts of is and
10 feet on Nos. II and Is to
stave of a fast finish by Cary
Middlecoff of Hollywood, Fla.
The closing brides gave
Boros a l-under par round of
II and a 72-hole total of 273.
At the mid-point Of the final
round-after Boros turned in

the ex-National Open king had
the triumph in the bag.

But Boros ran into trouble
on the final nine while Middle
coli, who was even par on the
front nine, rang up five brides.
Boros, meanwhile. went one
over par on 10 and two over
on No. 13 to get himself in
hot water. He bailed himself
out on the last two holes.
Boros started the last round
four strokes in front of Bob
Rosburg of Palo Alto, Calf =,
and five in front of Middlecoff
and Tommy Bolt of Paradise,
Fla. Middlecoff and Rosburg
were playing with him, so he
knew Just where he stood all
the way. This added to the
pressure, but Boros was more
than equal to it.
For moment, however, II
appeared as if he wasn't going
to make it. He made a medi-
ocre third shot on 18, pitching
about Is yards and leaving
himself 10 feet short of the
cup. He seemed mad at him.

the putt dropped and he knew
he had won.

but it was only good enough
to land him in a tie for third

lift. That sort of bat work
wouldn't create many head
lines, perhaps, but it would
serve to keep a rally going once
in awhile.
Chrisley Hits Homer
Rocky kept a king sized
eight-run rally going in the
second inning yesterday against
Jack Sanford, the Phillies' 49,
game winner. Norm Zauchin
doubled to start it, but Harmon
-Killebrew flied out and Faye
Throneberry popped out. Up
stepped Rocky to lace a single
to center, scoring zauchin with
the run that tied it up at IL.
That seemed to ignite the
Senators. Ralph Lumenti
walked, John Schaive. Albie
Pearson and Clint Courtney
singled, Roy Sievers walked and
zauchin doomed his second
double of the inning. Kille-
brew also doubled before
Throneberry again popped out.
Neil Chrisley supplied the
Senator'S ninth run of John
Gray in the ninth when he
slammed a home run over the
rightfleld fence. Chrisley had
singled earlier in his only other
appearance.
To blend with all that power,
the Senators received excellent
pitching. Lumenti, socked for
successive singles by Richie
AShburn and Chico Fernandez
to open the bottom of the first,
yielded a run when Rip Repul-

only other hit off him in a four
