Slow Masters Course
Raises Sneod's Hopes

AUGUSTA, Ca, April 5 (AP) =.
Drenching rains have turned
the oath Masters golf tourna-
nent, starting Thursday, into
a prospective battle of muscle
men and one of the most emf
nent Of these, Sam Snead, says
it could be his year.
"The way I'm playing, I just
might do it," the three-time
winner from West Virginia
drawled today. II don't know
when I've hit the ball better.
"I'll tell you one thing-as
heavy as this course is, no short
knocker is going to win it."
One of the games strongest
players, Arnold Palmer, has
been established as the advance
favorite. Most of his competi-
ton is expected to come from
such powerful hitters as Snead,
Cary Middlecoff, Mike Souchak
and, perhaps, the husky Ma
tional Amateur champion, Jack
NicklauS.
Nicklaus, blond. 200-pound
package of power from Colum-
bus, Ohio, trudged around the
Augusta National course in a
driving rain yesterday in SO,
three under par. 1t was the
best score of those rash enough
to buck the elements.
No amateur ever has won the
Masters.
Snead played 18 holes and
was even par although expert
menting with his long irons.
Ben Hogan gave up after eight
holes and said, II don't have a
chance" Palmer, the years
leading money winner, didn't
even come out.

BOSTON, April S (AP).-Bot
Cousy, Boston's Mr.. Basketball
may bench himself tonight il
he doesn't snap out of the dol
drums in the fifth game of the
Celtics' National Basketball
Association playoff with St
Louis at Boston Garden. The
sixth game is scheduled Thurs
day in st. Louis.
If things don't come back,

want one more try. But I can't
ruin this playoff for the boys
by staying out there if I don't
have it."
Cousy, one of the greatest
stars in the history of the
league. has been having one OF
the worst series of his 10-year
career in the best-of seven
playoff, now tied at two games
each.
Hit Six of As
He started off like the old
Cooz, hitting 10 of % shots
from the floor in the first
game, in which Boston marked
up a record victory. Since
then, however, he has been
far of his form, and the Celtics
won only one of three. In those
three games he has been good
on only six of As shots from
the floor.
But it is as q playmaker, a
clutch player and team leader
that Cousy has made his mark.
Even these characteristics have
been missing in the last three
games.
I've thought it over" CouSy
said. I'm going to start. If
I don't get of the mark. I'm
going to tell Red (Auerbach,
Boston Coach) to take me out.
They aren't going to win with

IS Sox Goal in
SieVers Trade
Youth and Promise
Again Given Up in
Favor of Experience

CHICAGO, April S (AP).-
The White Sox are still trading
away youth and promise for
experienced ball players in an
effort to win a second straight
American League pennant.
The South Side club yester-
day sent Catcher Earl Battey
and First Baseman Don
Mincher, plus $150,000, to
Washington for Roy Sievers,
slugging outfielder-f first base
man whom they have sought
for years. Sievers is expected
to report to his new team at
st. Petersburg, Fla, today.
1t was the third major deal
since winning the pennant last
fall in which the White Sox
have traded away promising
youngsters for proven sluggerS.
remnant Altered view
Who knows, if the White Sox
had failed to win last year
they might have chosen to
stick with younger players in
hopes of turning out a cham
pionship club in. the future
But President Bill Veeck, hav-
ing reached the top, is deter
mined to keep the club there
and he has been adding power
to the attack without hurting
the teams front-line pitching
and defense.
Aside from Battey, "a, and
Mincher. %, the White Sox
have traded away the likes of
Johnny Callison, 81; Ron Jack
son. 26; Norm Cash, 25, and
Johnny Romano, Is.
Callison went to Philadelphia
for Third Baseman Gene Freese
26. Jackson was peddled to
Boston for Southpaw Frank
Baumann, 26. Romano. Cash
and Bubba Phillips, 80, went to
Cleveland for Minnie Minoso,
who is anywhere from 81 to 40
nobody knows for sure, prob
ably not even Minnie.
Sievers Role Question Mark
Freese will play third base
and Minoso leftfield. Where the
33-year-old Sievers will play
is a question mark. Manager
AL Lopez has indicated Sievers
will be used as a pinch batter
and insurance for First Base
man Ted Kluszewski and Mi
noSo.
Regardless of where Sievers,
Minoso and Freese are used,
the White Sox have been
strengthened. However, the
day will come when Minoso
and Sievers are no longer play
ing while youngsters like CAL
lison, Mincher, Battey, Cash
and Romano could be Starring
in the majors.
Nevertheless, Minoso, Freese
and Sievers hit a total of IS
homers last season, while The
entire White Sox team had only
97-lowest in the major leagues
And skeptics who last fall
said the White Sox couldn't re-
peat because they lacked power
and Kluszewski would never
be able to play a full season
must be reconsidering with the
presence of Minoso, Freese and
Sievers.

FerreII Loses Title
As General Manager

, LAKELAND. Fla, April S
(AP President Bill Dewitt
today took over the job of gen.
eral manager of the Detroit
Tigers and named Rick Ferrell,

special assistant.
Ferrell, Tiger general man
ager since the opening of the
1859 season, will head the
player personnel department.
Dewitt said the specific title
of general manager will be
dropped.
Since Dewitt took over as
president of the club last fall
he has made all the major de-
cisions and handled all player
trade discussions. Ferrell han
died the contract Signings.
Sometimes it gets a little
embarrassing for Rick to have
the title of general manager,
Dewitt said. THE general
manager usually is a fellow who
has charge of the entire opera
ton. Rick doesn't particularly
care for Office work and paper
work.
This will give him more
time in the playing end of the
business. The move is well
coined by Rick and will give us
a broader operation at the ex-
ecutive level"
Earlier, Dewitt revealed that
the Tigers had Offered the Sen
