Senators Don't Find
rode Rumors Funny
By MERRELL WHITTLEsN

Pete's name was banded about in the
newspapers
HE DIDN'T EVEN COMPLAIN about
my snoring" Woodling said in the dugout
last night. He'd get up early to get a
copy OF the morning paper and would be
out waiting for the afternoon papers"
Woodling said he kept telling Pete
that there was no cause to get upset.
Look at me-" Woodling told him. 1--WE
been traded SO many times they have more
words under my name than any player in
the record book It's gamble you take
when you get in this business"
Actually, there probably is more type
under weddings name than any other
player. In 1854 he figured in a 17-player
deal between the Yankees and Orioles that
actually took IT days to complete.
A standing gag is to ask Woodling to
name the other 16 players in the trade.
Occasionally he forgets one or two.
WoODLING MAINTAINS THAT HE
and Burnside have adopted a point sys-
TEN. You get point against you for being
late for an engagement, staying out after
hours, not doing your share of the apart
ment upkeep, etc. t....
You know how we stand?" Woodling
asked
Somebody in the dugout said no.
Twelve points against Burnside" Gene
said. And without batting an eye he added
And none for me-" Nobody believed him.
Woodling said most of the points
against Burnside were charged when he
took Woodling to movie one night and
then went to visit friends Burnside forgot
all about him and Gene had to 90 home in
a cab
JIM PIERSALL WAS LISTENING to
weddings nonsense and said, There was
a story in Boston paper that I was going
to be traded to New York
That's all I'd need to be traded to a
prospective pennant winner Then if the
team didn't win it, they'd say it was my
fault"
John Schaive butted in and said, Gust
because somebody wrote you were going
to be traded to New York doesn't mean you
were going to the Yankees"
What the writer meant" Schaive said
ducEing, was that you were going to be
traded to the Nets"

Carr, Sweeny
Eliminated in
British Golf

HOYLAKE, England, June IA
(AP) Richard D. Davies, the
long hitting golfer from Pasa-
dena, Calf, was the only
to survive the fourth
round of the British Amateur
golf championship today as
Robert Sweeny, Pat Brady and
Joe Carr, Ireland's three-time
champion, all were eliminated.
Davies, whose power-driving
has been very effective on the
6,932-yard Royal Liverpool
course, trounced Peter Flaherty
of Ireland, 6 and 4. He plays in
the fifth round this afternoon.
Sweeny, the 50-year-old Palm
Beach (FlaO investment banker
who won the British title in
1897, fell before Donald Palmer
of England. 6 and 4. Brady,
of Reidsville, N. c., was beaten
by John Taylor of England,
2 and l.
Carr, the top favorite after
the second-round defeat of
Michael Bonallack, lost to Brian
Chapman Of England, 3 and /.
Davies was able to tame the
strong wind from the Irish Sea
that blew across the flat links
during the mornings play.
Winds of gale force were ex-
pected to strike this part of the
coast later in the day.
Chapman, former Cambridge
star and Walker Cup player,
pulled off the biggest surprise
of the week by defeating Carr.
Chapman went out in 80, a
pace that even Carr couldn't
stand, and held a 1-up margin
at the turn after being two
down after four holes. Chap
man birdied the short 18th and
18th holes and ended the match
at the 18th when Carr sent his
second shot out of bounds.
Palmer, a dour Yorkshire
man, outdrove Sweeny by 20
to 40 yards on almost every
hole.

out, one of the great courses
in the country.
He had predicted $50, but the
greens are very soft now and
the players will be able to fly
their approaches at the pin and
know that a reasonably well-hit
shot will remain on the putting
surface.
However, the rough may be
more difficult. 1t was already
thick and long and now it is
extra heavy.
Palmer is a bit optimistic
about his chance to win his
second Open title. He said yes
terday that he is playing 100
per cent better than he has in
recent weeks, but he didn't get
a chance to prove it. The rain
caused the course to be closed
to practice rounds. Veteran
observers believe this is the
first time it has ever happened
on the eve of an Open.
Palmer said that last week he
used a different set of clubs
from those he has been using
the last two years. They were
lighter than his regular set and
he used them because he had a
cold, was a little weak and felt
he could generate more club
head speed.

contact. Two others were in
field hits.
AS Sid Hudson the Senators
pitching coach, said, Hes
some pitcher and he was right
tonight" The big guy who was
the No. man in the PierSall
trade walked only one.
The Senators chief concern
today is Osteen's back. The o.
year-old southpaw has been
bothered off and on all season
with what is nothing more
than a muscle spasm. But DR..
George Resta has ordered
Osteen to report for X-rays to-
day to see if it is anything
more serious, such as trouble
in the bone.
Osteen walked only three in
715 innings of the opener, but
was wild and informed Man
|ager Mickey Vernon during the
game that his back was bother
ing him. After Bubba Phillips
beat out a topped roller in the
eighth with one out, Vernon
called in Hamilton.
The first batter Hamilton
faced was safe on an error and
with the Senators leading only
3D. at the time, it was a pre-
carious situation. But Gene
Green Smacked a grounder to
Danny O'Connell, who stepped
on third and threw to Dale
Long for a double play.
In the ninth, Hamilton
walked Romano, but Woodie
Held hit into a double play.
Hamilton faced only five bat
tiers.

single to right, stole second,
and scored when Schmidt's
wrong-field looper fell safely.
That was in the second inning.
They had two base runners in
the third Oh singles by Chuck
Hinton and Piersall, but never
more than one from the fifth
inning on.
Hinton RObs Romano =
StenhouSe had been scored
on in only one of his last IT
innings when he started the
nightcap and he pitched three
more scoreleSs innings before
Romano's homer in the fourth.
Hamlin made a great pickup
and throw to retire Al Luplow,
the first batter in the fourth
but Francona then sin gled
off Hamlin's chest, Kirkland
popped up to short center and
Hamlin reached the ball easily
but dropped it. He still had
time to force Francona, but
threw wild.
Romano then hit his 18th
home run high off the wall in
the Senators bullpen.
On Romano's next time at
bat Hinton reached into the
bullpen with one hand on the
fence and robbed him of a Sec
ond homer.
The crowd Of 1888 was a
pretty fair turnout considering
it had rained off and on for
two days.
The Senators won five in a
row in May last year, and the
streak was their longest since
that time.

RAIN GIVES LONG HTTERs A BREAK
Palmer Leans to NickIous
As Action Begins in Open
BY ROBERT SOMMERS
Star staff Writer

OAKMONT. Pa, June IA
II Jack Nicklaus wins the Ma
tional Open golf championship
opening today at Oakmont
Country Club this week, Arnold
Palmer can lean back in his
chair and say: II told you So"
Before the field Of $50 teed
off this morning, Palmer said
the course favors a player like
Nicklaus, the cherub faced
Ohioan who is the most bally-
hooed convert from amateur
ranks since Lawson Little.
He hits it so far he can
shoot over the trouble here"
Palmer said, referring to the
bunkers that hour-glass the
fairways in the landing areas.
Palmer can move the ball a
long way himself, but not as
far as Nicklaus.
81 can hit over the trouble on
some holes" Arnold went on.
but Nicklaus carries it farther
than I do. After all. he's
stronger than ! am"
Arnold 81 FavOrite
No matter how many here
can drive farther than Palmer,
he's still the favorite. Not even
Gene Littler, the defending
champion, commands the re-
spect that Palmer does, even
though Gene beat him by is
strokes just last week in the
Thunderbird invitation. Litter
won with 275 and Palmer shot
200.
Bookies are quoting odds Of
5-1 on Palmer, 6-1 on Billy
Casper and Littler, I'll on Doug
Sanders and Gary Player, and
81 on Sam Snead, Doug Ford
and Nicklaus, the 1861 National
Amateur champion playing his
first season on the pro tour.
One Of the contenders pulled II
out last night. Dow Finster-
valid, who finished third in the
Masters, withdrew when he re-
eeived word Of the death of
his father, Russell Finsterwald,
in Athens, Ohio.
Palmer Is paired with Nick
iaus for the first two days.
They drew a l O'Clock start
ing time, three hours after
sittler and Mike Souchak.
Six former Open champions
are in the field. They include
Littler and Palmer, who won
IN 1860; Casper, the 1859
champion; Tommy Bolt, who
won in 1858; Cary Middlecoff,
the only double winner in the
field Q949 and 1856 and Ed
Furgol, the 1854 champion.
Dick Mayer, who defeated
Middlecoff in a playoff in 1857,
was entered but withdrew last
week.

estimate of the winning score. i

roommates, Pete Burnside, handsome dap
per bachelor, Ivy League product and off
season stock broker, and Gene Woodling.
Gene is older, can be gruff at times, is
a family man and farmer. When he
requested Burnside for a roommate in a
letter to the Senators last winter, it was
the biggest upset of the early season.
But they have been getting along
famously in their air-conditioned suburban
apartment with swimming pool. Mrs.
Woodling remains in Ramsons Corner,
Ohio, during the summer to look after
the farm, so Gene needed roommate
, That is, they had been getting along
famously until Woodling started some
rumors. The odd part of it is that while
Woodling was playing a practical joke,
there was some truth to the matter
WITH THE MAJOR LEAGUE trading
deadline only few days away, Woodling
planted a rumor Sunday that Burnside
was to be traded Pete apparently likes it
here, was enjoying his best season until
his last two starts, and wants to stay.
They say he was upset visibly by the
rumors and Woodling and some of his
cronies even had Vernon go along with
them. ~...r.---
Mickey sent for Burnside Sunday
night, after the double victory over the
Tigers when everybody was happy. At this
time of year when the manager summons
a player it probably means he is being
traded or sent down. According to Wood
ling, Burnside was panicky.
But before Mickey could say word
he glanced at the window outside his office
and gave away the gag because Woodling
and some of the others were out there
laughing.
Actually, Burnside's name had been
mentioned in a prospective deal with an
other club, and for the next two days

US. Touches Off Successful High Altitude Blast

HONOLULU tR The=United States detonated loW-yield nu- clear device above the Pacific Fri day night but only a faint light ming type flash filtered through heavy clouds visible on inhabited ocean islands.
 The blast, small one by pre- sent-day standards = less than the equivalent of 20,000 tons of INT was about the same size as the nuclear. bomb tn. .leveled Hiro- shima in l945
 A few persons in Oahu, the main Hawaiian island, and handful of Kuai,. 100 miles nearer the John ston Island blast site, reported see ing the explosion. The detonation was obstructed by cloud cover that hung over most of the Pacific.
 The blast had the effect of q slight lightning flash that faded seconds after it appeared. It was nothing like the spectacular ther- monuelear shot of July 3.that painted the mid-Pacific with rainbow of color for six minutes.
 Until Friday night, the July test was the only successful high altitude effort in the American nu- clear program this year Four other shots had failed because of troubles with Thor boosters carry ing the nuclear Warneads aloft.
 Scientists at Johnston Island used a different vehicle this time, however, and met with instant sue | cess
 A specially-built rocket powered by standard Sergeant motor took the device to an altitude of be tween 20 and 30 miles.
 The next shot, announced inn mediately after Fridays success, is scheduled for Tuesday night or Wednesday morning.
 The device will be lofted. to a similar altitude = between 20 and 30 miles = probably by an Army 1 Thor-Hercules rocket.
