Six Brides

II always shoot this kind of
round in practice" the 23-year-
old Nicklaus said. Never in
the tournament"
The kind of round he was
talking about consisted of six
brides and no bogies, although
he had to sink a 12-footer on
the first to save a par after
he misjudged the speed of the
green. He went out in "a, VIII
brides on the seventh and
eighth, and came back in 80,
slipping under par on the 18th,
18th, 18th and 18th. He also
gave an indication of his power
when he hit a five-iron second
shot onto the green of the $40
yard 10th.
Now. of course, everyone is
looking for Nicklaus to keep
moving ahead, overtake
Souchak and shake loose from
Hebert. But Souchak may be
rather difficult to catch. He
says his game is improving
every day and his putting has
been amazingly steady.
II haven't 3-putted a
green in SO holes" he said. The
four-footer he missed for a
birdie on the eighth yesterday
was his shortest missed putt
Of the two rounds. Asked II he
thinks he can keep up his fine
play. he said he'll have to keep
hoping for miracles.
Souchak birdied the second
hole to go 4 under for the
tournament and then dipped
5 under with another birdie
at the seventh. He lost this
stroke with a DOGGY on the
ninth and made the turn IN
35. Coming back. he pared the
first eight holes Of the back

A Saturday-Sunday card also
is scheduled for the Eastern

Defense Key
Red Auerbach. the Boston

will be the defensive job on
Oscar Robertson.
Robertson averaged 80 point,

Souchak refuses to make pre-
dictions about his chances and
claims that now that he's made
the cut he's Just trying to fin
ish among the low "a, which
means he would automatically
qualify for next years Masters.
Hebert gives a lot of credit
for his second straight 10 to
his pairing. He played with
Palmer yesterday, and thinks
that was a big help.
Playing with Palmer charges

I guess / outdrove him as much

Wininger is wearing a lucky

from the tail Of an elephant
he shot on an African safari

Not Aggressive
"I'n have to use some VOC
doc on Them" he said yester-
day after coming in with his
even-par round. He's also try
ing to use some patience.
"I'm not being aggressive out
there:- I'm just trying not to
take more than DOGGY on any
one hole. You can't try to
charge this course; just have
a little patience and wait for
the brides to come to you%
They came to him only twice
yesterday. He made q 12-foot
putt on the eighth and athree-
footer on the 18th, but they
were balanced by bogies on
the 18th, where he three putted
from about 100 feet, and on
the 18th, where he was trapped.
Furgol could well have had a
lower score except for an I'M
fortunate incident at the 18th.
He went for the green on the
paris hole--which is protected
by a Lakeland cleared the
water. but then saw his ball strike
a woman spectator in the face
and bounce back into the lake.
So he took a DOGGY six when
he had a chance at a possible
birdie and probable par. The
spectator was not hurt seriously
and left the course under her
own power.

indifferent golf he's ever
played. changed drivers for

He said that his chipping,

much to be desired.

The cutoff figure of 152
caught some of the more
highly regarded players, such
as Jerry Barber. who wo-- the

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla,
April g. Hank Bauer, the for
mer manager of the Athletics
who now is a coach with the
Orioles. spoke for mos of the
baseball people in Florida when
he was watching the Senators
take batting practice the other
day.
"I'll say one thing for this
club" Bauer said. They're try
ing, and I have to like them
for that. They're moving guys
around, getting new faces, and
they're a better ball club"
That was the day Outfielder
Minoso Joined the squad.
That guy will help them"
Bauer said.
Bauer, who was given an OPP
portunity to resign as manager
of the AS last year, might have
been quietly comparing the
Senators with Kansas City.
The Athletics, who finished
ninth the last two years, have
added only two players -
Pitcher Ted Bowsfield and
Outfielder Chuck Essegian -
since last esason.
One More TO Go
Fifteen of the 20 Senator
players making the trip to
Washington were not with the
squad when it broke spring
training last year. Twelve of
them have been added since
the end of last season, and
five since spring training be-
gan this year - Tom Brown,
Ron Kline, Minoso. Jim Bron-
stad and Larry Osborne.
The Senators still have one
more player to cut before Mon
days opener with the Orioles
after sending Pitcher Bob
Baird to the Pensacola farm
camp yesterday.
Whoever the player proves to
be, he will accompany the club
to Washington and be OPP
toned or sold Monday
morning.
Manager Mickey Vernon said
the move was in Baird's best
interest. Bob is a 22-year-old
southpaw who pitched for
Pensacola. Raleigh and in three
games with the Senators last
year.

Il liked everything Baird did
in spring training" Mickey
said. He certainly was one of
our most effective relief pitch
ers, and he did a good job
every time we used him.
But with a number Of open
dates. plus the usual spring
rainouts. we really need only
three starting pitchers the first
month of the season, and he
would spend most Of his time
on the bench. He should be
pitching. Unless I miss my
guess, he'll be back this
season"

The red carpet on which
Mike Mccormick was ushered
into the big leagues has been
rolled up.
Mccormick, who's been a.
major league pitcher since the
day he signed a bonus contract
with the New York Giants in
1855, is headed today for the
Orioles Rochester farm club of
the International League to try
to solve some of the mysteries
of an ailing arm.
Obtained from San Francisco
in one of the winters biggest
trades. Mccormick came to
Baltimore, along with Pitcher
Stu Miller and Catcher John
Orsino. in exchange for Pitch
ers Jack Fisher and Billy Hoeft
and Catcher Jim Coker.
Mccormick has been coming
along slowly in the Orioles
camp, and Manager Billy
Hitchcock feels an additional
stretch with the minor leaguers

Just the cure-all Mccormick
needs.
Pitcher Optimistic
Mike is optimistic" Hitch
cock said as the Orioles broke
camp for the northward trek,
land we are encouraged by
what we have seen so far.
However, he still needs work to
build UP his arm. We're leaving
him with Rochester to pitch in
a couple of their exhibition
games"
Mccormick has had the goods
since he broke in with the
Giants. However, along the line
they became somewhat perish
able. From 1858 to 1860, after
the club had moved to San
Francisco, Mccormick was a
regular starter, winning IL, IL
and is games.
In 1860, when he posted his
1912 mark, he had the leagues
lowest earned-run average, a
brilliant 2.70. In 1861 he slipped
to 1915, and then last season

Souchak HOLDING
Precarious Lead
BY ROBERT SOMMERS
Star Staff Writer

AUGUSTA, Ga, April e.
Mike Souchak is relying on
miracles and DO Wininger on
voodoo. but Jack Nicklaus has
stopped relying on memory, and
that might be the most sig
nificant development of the
Masters tournament, which to-
day moves into the third round
at the Augusta National Golf
Club.
Nicklaus charted the course
for the first time last week
and yesterday shot his first
sub-70 round In five appear
ances here. a six-under-par So
that moved him from a tie for
l4th place after his first-round
IA Thursday to a tie for sec
ond at the halfway point.
Souchak, who maintains he
was just trying to make the
36-hole cut, is In front with
1879 after rounds Of SO and 70,
while Nicklaus is tied with Jay
Herbert, who has shot a pair
of 7Os.
Wininger and Ed Furgol, the
lame-armed former National
Open champion, at 14I, are
next In line, two strokes ahead
of Sam Snead, Tony LENA and
Dick Mayer.
Palmer 8 Behind
If Arnold Palmer plans to
to make another of his
late charges, he'll have to do
1t from 8 strokes. He had
a 70 yesterday. Gary Player is
2 strokes better off at 145
after going over par yesterday
for the first time in 10 rounds.
He fired a IA over the $3.50
yard, par 36-36-72 layout.
The field was cut to the low
so and ties. and scores Of l52
or better qualified for the final
two rounds today and tomor-
row. >
1t always has been Nicklaus'
practice to chart each course
he plays, stepping off distances
in relation to landmarks, so
that he can club himself ac-
curately, a practice he learned
from Deane Beman during his
amateur days.
However. Nicklaus said yes
terday that this is the first
time he's done it here.
Il felt I knew the course
well enough without the index, I"
he said. 1t is obvious he now
knows 1t a lot better with his
index, because he missed only
one green during his superb
round yesterday = the 18th.
However. he still managed to
get his par and preserve the
best round Of the tournament
thus far.
