Glancing over the 1860 win

He still has an opportunity by

There hasn't been a double

Some say Sam Snead and Ben

TO GREEN
By MERRELL WHITTLEsEY

About the only compensation
to February's miserable weather
fadeout was the mail that
brought the Masters Green
Book from Cliff Roberts, plus
the accompanying notes from
the chairman at Augusta.
] Among the tidbits are that
the April ITO dates of the
Masters are the latest in five
years. and that the invitation
list of 81 players is one less
than last year.
Five players still are to be
named-one by the Masters
champions, one each by the
National Open and Amateur
champions, and two who make
the best shoWings on the VIM
ter tour.
Roberts notes that an un-
usual feature of the 1860 i'll
vitation list is that of the six
categories under which Ameri-
cans can gain permanent en-
trance to the Masters, five
have new names.
/ -
The five are Deane Beman,
the British Amateur champion;
Art Wall, the Masters titllst:
Bill Casper and Bob Rosburg,
who won the National Open
and PGA, respectively, and
JACK Nicklaus, the National
Amateur champion. Beman
and Nicklaus would lose their
lifetime qualifying positions
should they turn professional.
Findlay S. Douglas, National
Amateur champion in 1898,
died last year. His was the only
death on the 1859 eligible list.
The Masters will have only
six first-time starters, Dick
Knight and Dave Mari, who
were in the low 16 in the 1859
National Open; Bob Goalby
in the low eight of the PGA,
and Dave Goldman, Charles
Harrison and Dudley Wysong
quarterfinalists in the Amateur
Cliff, who lists the staggering
total of 1887 accredited repre-
sentatives of the press, radio
and television. has good news
for the badge wearers. The
press building is being en-
iarged, the figures on the score
board will be larger. and there
will be hole-by-hole scores on
the last two days.
Also, the observation towers
for the press on the 18th and
18th holes have been enlarged
and double-de
y
Col. Tom Belshe, the Burn
ing Tree member who also is
the press chairman at the Mas
tiers, was grumbling the other
day about the new towers.
That just means I'll have to
hire guards to keep spectators
off," the colonel said before
leaving for Florida.
The two-paragraph addition
to the Green Book on a terse
summary of the 1859 Masters
recalls that Wall birdied five
Of the last six holes for his
closing sc. In way it seems
like yesterday that Wall staged
that finish, yet the fact that he
did birdie five of the last six
holes was doubted for a
moment. Even seeing it in
print. it still is almost un-
believable.
I'VE are unable to find any,
thing in the record books of
major tournaments that equals
this driving finish" Roberts
notes, almost unnecessarily.
Wall was six shots back of
Stan Leonard and Arnold
Palmer after 81 holes, but he
passed them with that 66 and
Cary Middlecoff slipped into
second place with a 70. In

liant international competition
drew near its close.
Russia has these games Sc
curely won. On the basis Of the
unofficial tabulation. the So
viets have 1882 points to 69l2
for Sweden, which moved into
second place today ahead of the
United States with 81.
At that, the United States has
already made a better showing
than it did at the games in
Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy. four
years ago when the Americans
were fifth with 54l2 points and
two Gold Medals.
A victory in hockey would
sweeten the American record.
In addition to David Jenkins
and Carol Heiss, the figure skat-
ing champions, the Yankee
team picked up three Silver
Medals in women's skiing and
one in skating.
In the hockey tournament.
the United States has a spot
less record and meets an av-

beat in the preliminary round.
In the final game. The Czech's

ada has one loss-to the United
States-and Russia has today's
defeat and a previous % tie
with Canada against it.
Bill Cleary, Boston insurance
man, opened the scoring in the
fast, hard-played game by dart
ing down the right side of the
rink and slamming in the puck
from 25 feet out at 4:04 of the
first period. The play started
with a pass from his brother,
Bob.
The Russians tied it, IL. a
minute later on a deft screen
shot by Veniamin Aleksandroy
and then went ahead midway
IN the opening period when
Mlkhail Bychkov fired from IS
feet in front of the net. The
puck hit the iron bar of the
cage, dropped to the ice, and
bounced in. at 9:37.
For the tying score, Bill
Christian took a pass from his
brother, Roger, sewpt down the
left side, and fired home from
an angle. Then with five min
utes left Billy again rammed
home the puck as the crowd
went wild.
The American team could
not contain itself with Joy.
After a few minutes of wild
congratulations, The Russians
skated up and shook hands
with their rivals.

Ink.of {. Meet

NEW YORK. Feb. 27 (AP).-
Hayes Jones, the Eastern Mich
igan flash, won the 60-yard
hurdles in IL seconds in the
knights of Columbus Games
tonight. In the process he de-
feated Olympic Champion Lee
Calhoun for the fourth time
this winter.
A crowd of IL 900 in Madison
Square Garden saw Jones win
with almost ridiculous ease. He
was two yards ahead before the
pack reached the second hurdle
and coaSted the rest of the way
Calhoun has won four races
this winter, but Jones wasn't in
any of them. Each time they
have tangled Jones has come
out on top.
This was Jones easiest as
signment of them all. Calhoun
finished second, but he barely
beat out Charlie Pratt of Phil
adelphia, a two-time winner
Of K. of c. hurdles. Chuck
Cobb of the Navy was third.
Moran Wins Slow Mile
In the mile, Ed Moran of the
New York Athletic Club coaSted
to a ho-hum 4:11.8 victory. He
finished about II yards in front
Bob Vinton Of Georgetown. VEL
lisa Mugosa of the New York
A. c. nosed out John Kopil of
the Quantico Marines for third.
Kye Courtney of Manhattan
won a rock-'em, sock-'em 600
in 1:ll.7. Rudy Smith of Bates,
who won the event last year,
tripped at the start and never
got back in contention.
On the last lap, Courtney and
Art Crichlow Of St. Johns COL
lided. Courtney was knocked
clear into the infield, but he
kept running and defeated
Crichlow by about two yards.
Brown UpSetS Winder
Bob Brown of Penn State
upset Paul Winder of Morgan
State to win the 60-yard dash
in So seconds.
Mel Schwarz of the Guam
tico Marines took the pole
vault with 14-6 effort. Jerry
Welbourn Of the Air Force
was second. He also had a l4-6
vault, but Schwarz won on the
fewer number Of misses.
Tom Murphy of the New
York A.C. captured the 1000
yard run in 2:10.8. Murphy,
one of Americas prime Olym-
pic 800-meter hopes, beat out
John Reilly of the Georgetown
Frosh by almost six yards.
Reilly Beats Evans
Reilly, a product of Mt. st.
MichaePs High of The Bronx,
was six yards ahead of Man
hattan's Art Evans. at least a
co-favorite with Yale's Tom
Carroll in the IC-4A 1000
yard championship at the Gar
den next Saturday.
| Maryland's Bill johnson and
Ge0'getown's AL Hoddinott
both fell by the wayside in the
semifinals of the 60-yard

Spiegal missed out in the semi
finals of the 60-yard sprint.
Two Records Set
Earlier, meet records were

West leads the four Of spades
against your contract Of three
no-trump. If he is leading
from the ace. your best play
from dummy is the king. If
West is leading from the
queen, however, you can use
dummy'S ten to force out the
ace.
How do you guess this play?
You shouldn't be peeking at
the East-West cards to see
which play is right. If you
accidentally peeked, you might
decide to play the ten of
spades from the dummy. This
would be the right guess but
the wrong play-and it viii
teach you not to take an &C
Icidental look at the cards!
Grave Danger
You are in grave danger If
East can win the first trick. He
may be bright enough to re-
turn a club. and then the OPP
ponents may rattle of five
club tricks!
If you play the ten of spades
from dummy, you must expect
East to win the trick. If he has
to win with the ace of spades,
he will see that dummy has a
fine long diamond suit, the
king of spades and the king of
hearts. East will be forced to
lead a club, and you will be in
the soup.
If you play the king of
spades from the dummy at
the first trick. you have two
chances to come out Of your
pickle with a whole skin. The
first chance is that the king
Of spades will win the trick if
West has led from the ace.
This is your best chance to
rattle off the game before the
opponents can touch you.
The second chance is to drop
the six of spades from your
hand if East wins with the ace.
He may think his partner can
run the spades, once dummy's
king has been killed, and he
may return a spade instead of
switching to clubs.
In short. you must play
dummy's king-even if it is the
wrong guess! |2s

Richmond's Police Mess

The shocking implications of police
corruption contained in a gambling
report by Federal grand jury in Rich
mond, Virginia, call for a most thor
oughgoing investigation by State and
city authorities. While Federal prose-
cutors of two indicted numbers oper-
ators probably are justified in opposing
release at this time of the grand fury
records, since some of the material will
be used as evidence against the gam
blerS, the records ought to be turned
over to State and municipal officials as
soon as feasible. Meanwhile every DO
hceman who invoked the Fifth Amend
ment against elf-incrimination when
questioned by the grand jury should be
suspended, pending dismissal proceed
ingS. We do not believe any law enforce
ment officer has the right to remain
silent in criminal case for fear of in
eliminating himself, and also stay on
as an officer.
1t has been reported that more than
half of los Richmond policemen sub
poenaed by the Federal Jurors took
refuge in the Fifth Amendment. The
subpoenaed officers constitute about Is
per cent of the whole force. The police
men were questioned about what the
grand jurors described as "overwhelm-
ing evidence of appalling and fragrant
disregard for law and order which, we
believe, seriously threatens the general
welfare of our city and State"
AS Federal body, the jury was con-
cerned directly with alleged violation of
Federal laws. Accordingly, it indicted
Harry L. Donovan, reputed numbers
king" and his lieutenant, Clarence S.
Beache. Donovan was charged with
evading payment of Federal gambling
taxes and Beache was charged with per-
jury. In making its report, the jury re-
quested Federal Judge Albert " Bryan
to send its records to Governor Almond
or Richmond Mayor A. Scott Anderson.
State and city attorneys have asked the
court to release the findings to facili-
tate an inquiry into the charge of dis
regard for law and order" The court
has these requests under advisement. We
hope the way will be cleared, now or
later, for access to the records, so that
the names of all officers who hid behind
the Fifth Amendment will be revealed
and all other information which the
grand jury may have obtained concern
ing police collusion with gamblers or
other law violators may be used in clean
ing up Richmond's police department.

Tit for Tat

The policy of tit for tat, or measure
for measure, has once again been put to
work in our dealings with the Russians
Its latest application began some weeks
ago when the Kremlin sought to impose
on Anglo French American military
personnel new travel passes calling for
indirect diplomatic recognition of the
East German Communist regime Far
from asserting, however, our side re-
tallated by restricting the movement Of
Soviet missions in West Germany.
AS a result, apparently not wishing
TO seem unreasonable or create fresh
unpleasantries prior to the May summit
meeting, the Kremlin now has with
drawn the Objectionable new passes and
revalidated the old ones, thus abating its
pressure for a form of East German
recognition. In turn, France, Britain and
the United States have lifted their retail
1atory travel restrictions on Soviet per-
sonnet, and so the technique of reciproc-
ity-the exchange of toughness for
toughneSS or concession for concession
continues to work pretty effectively, at
least In areas of relatively minor inter-
national disputes
1t may be said, of course, that such
policy, since it is not unlike Juvenile

In a recent letter ]. CheS-
ter Wilfong assumed that
Charles Mack Parker was
guilty of the crime of rape
against a pregnant white
woman. The assumption was
erroneous. Wilfong must have
arrived at his conclusion
through the opaque eyes Of
Mississippi Justice; for it
was never proved that Park
er perpetrated any crime, nor
was he convicted Of any such
attack. Parker was merely
accused of attacking the
woman. which in Mississippi
is sufficient to doom any
Negro.

wolves nations that do not
follow a course of conduct
we think reasonable or prop

ened; and this can be done
simply by proper enforce
ment.

Problem for All

For two persuasive reasons the eco
nomic and social problems of the Ma
tion's senior citizens" currently are
receiving the most searching attention
since the principle of public RESPONSE
bility, even though limited, was recog-
nized in passage of the Social Security
Act in 1885.
In brief, the reasons are: ID That
the steady lengthening in average life
span has increased greatly the older-age
population-the number of people who
have passed their peak earning power
and who are living on relatively small,
fixed incomes in an era when virtually
all living costs, and particularly those
involving protection of health, have
been rising. (2) That there already has
been evidence on State and local levels
of these older citizens uniting in "bloc
voting" tendency which gives increas-
ing political significance to their needs
and wishes.
At the moment, Congress is examin-
ing the problem on two fronts-and,
quite UNDERSTANDABLE, with thought to
the potential impact on this years ma
tional elections. 1t is reasonably certain,
too, that the campaign platforms of both
political parties will contain plank cal
culated to have special attraction to the
more than 20 per cent of the eligible
voters who will be so or older by Novem-
Der. On Capitol Hill, the broadeSt study
has been made by Senate Labor sub
committee with the committee majority
making twelve far-reaching recommen-
dations for greater Federal services to
the aging. More immediate possibility
OF action, however, exists on the House
side where the Ways and Means Com
mittee has several legislative propo-
sails for broadening social security COW
erage. Most controversial of these is one
sponsored by high-ranking committee
member, Representative Forand, Rhode
Island Democrat, to provide Govern
ment-paid health care to social security
pensioners. Mr.. Forand has announced
that he will ask the House membership
to sign discharge petition If the Ways
and Means Committee does not report
his bill to the floor in the near future.
The fact that there are political i'm
plications almost automatically built in
to public consideration of this overall
problem should not becloud, the problem
itself. The Senate subcommittee ma
1ority, for example, was not talking of
something unreal when it referred to
problems facing "the young couple with
aged parents to support; the middle aged
who find employment opportunities clos
ing to them; those about to step over
the threshold into the strange and un-
easy world of retirement; and the aged
themselves who, having reached the al
legged golden years find them a badly
tarnished imitation" This is not a
problem for paternalistic Federal action
only. AS the majority said, it is chal-
lenge calling for partnership approach
utilizing all levels of government, pri-
vate organizations and individuals"
Focusing national interest on the prob
lem today should help resolve it to-
morrow.

Bar the Poor Losers

The durability of this country's two
party system hangs on an assumption
OF good faith-an assumption that he
who participates, but fails to have his
way, in party councils will not then
walk out and make common cause with
the political enemy.
This crops up in connection with the
report that Spokesmen for five Southern
StateS-Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi,
Louisiana and South Carolina-have
agreed that their delegations to the
Democratic convention should be "unin-
Structed and uncommitted to any can
didate." This is vague language, which
may mean one or more of several things
Very probably, however, it means that
the Democratic leaders in these States
want to be free of any commitment to
support Democratic nominee of whom
they diSapprove. Presumably they would
go on from there and try to throw
the presidential election into the House
of Representatives by denying their sup
port to such a candidate in the elec-
toral college.
If this Interpretation is correct it
seems to us that the convention would
be justified in refusing to seat the dele
cations from these States. In any event,
there certainly would be ample reason
to insist upon knowing, prior to seating
these delegations, whether they propose
to support the party nominee. Undoubt-
edly, they have right to refuse to bind
themselves to support the nominee until
they know who will be chosen. But we
do not think they can expect to enjoy
both the right to be seated in the con-
vention and the right to reserve tudg-
ment as to whether they will support
the party's choice. ~
