MEMPHIS, June S (AP).-
There's no place like home, and
nobody knows it better than
Cary Middlecoff. who came
from behind to win the Mem
phis Open yesterday for q
$4,000 paycheck-hiS biggest in
three years.
Middlecoff, who was born in
nearby Halls, Tenn, and prac-
tically grew up on Memphis
golf courses, nailed front-run-
ner Gardner Dickinson with a
three-under-par 81 and finished
with 266, a tournament record.
The old record, 267, was set
in 1858 by Billy Maxwell.
Dickinson, 120-pounder from
Tequesta, Fla, who led the
first three days, slipped to a 70
and a Second-place tie with
Mike Souchak at 271. Souchak
had a 81 yesterday. Both COL
lected $4,000.
Bob Shave was fourth at 272
after a SO yesterday that tied
the competitive record over the
6,423-yard, 34-36-70 Colonial
Country Club course. Lionel
Hebert, Gene Littler and Buddy
Sullivan were next at 723 with
defending champion Tommy

tournament and the team of
Tom Broyhill, a steady g.
handicap player, and Ralph
Bogart. one of the sections top
amateurs, only a stroke off the

they were the team to beat.
The reason was that the last

would be a tough combination
under the selective drive, al

The reasoning was correct.
