Of Golf
By JOE MAPLES
The Third Annual Blue Ridge ,
Pro Amateur Golt Tournament
turned out to be the must success
ful ever hold, both from the stand
point of number of entries and
amount of prize money presented.
Thirty eight teams for a total of
152 players from all over North
and South Carolina and part o!
Virginia took part in the two day
thirty-six hole event held last
Wednesday and Thursday.
Leader of the first round was
the team of pro Billy Hoover, of
Greensboro, Lyn Caveness and J,
B. Webster of Greensboro and Roy
Blanton of Boo Re, with a team
score of 58, twelve under par and
the lowest shot for both days.
Hoover himself waa low pro for
the first day with a fine score of
67.
It was a different story the last
round however as the team of Pur
vis Ferree, Bobby Galloway and
Wiley Fleener of Winston-Salem
and Junior Wilcox of Boons sho<
their second straight score of 61
for a two day total of 122 to win
by one shot over the Hoover team
which balooned to a 65.
The most excitement was pro
duced by pro Joe Cheves who be
ing the last man on the coarse,
turned in a second round koto of
68 to take the pro medal money
away from Hoover and Jim Rig
gins who were in with a score of
140. Cheves 68 the last day gave
him a total of 139 and gave him
the pro medal money for the sec
ond year in a row. Joe seems to
like this course, having shot 67
last year to win the medal. Cheves
was about the only man the last
day that shot a lower score, as the
cool weather and light rain and
tough pin placements made most
scores go up a stroke or two.
Most of the players were gener
ally 'in agreement that the course
was in much better condition for
the Pro-Am than it was back in
June when tbe Carolinas Open was
played and everyone that I talked
to indicated that they had an ex
cellent time during their stay in
Boone.
Entry fees swelled the total
purse of $1250 to $2750 which is
Close to being a record for a two
day pro-am event in the Carolinas
section. *? , *

Comment On
Sports
By PETE FRITCHIE
Washington, D. C. ? The case of
the Washington Senators and the
Los Angeles Angels is an interest
ing one, in light of the coming
expansion of the National League.
The two teams, now finishing
their first year of play in the
American League, began the sea
son with surprisingly perky teams.
The Senators, with good pitching,
made a race for the first division
in the first half of the year.
Lacking punch and depth, they
folded badly in the second half
of the year and finally hi( bottom
f# SepteirfWflr, "touch to the relief
of the Kansas City Athletics who
had been in the cellar most of the
year.
Loe Angeles, also with surpris
ingly good pitching, held up better
than Washington and manager Bill
Hingey was given a contract for
1962 this month. Los Angeles had
a rocky start but came on later
in the year and had a surprisingly
competitive team.
Even considering Washington's
collapse, the two teams proved
they could win games and play
competitive ball. This is important
because some claimed the two
teams, without more time to or
ganize, could not fit into Major
League play. ?
Washington may com* up with a
new manager, of course, and some
fear that Micky Vernon's talents
were not up to the tremendous
challenge that facud the Senators
in the last half of the year. Yet,
Vernon did a creditable Job at the
beginning.
In summary, the new National
League teams, at New York and
Houston, will make the picture
next year one of two-team leagues.
Houston already has signed Paul
Richards as the fcaeral manager.
And it would seem that Houston
and New York have an even better
chance than had Washington and
Mountaineers Win !

In their first tilt Saturday, the

Wasps a first quarter touchdown,
then roared back with three TDs
of their own in thte final half. The
victors took advantage of two
breaks to score the clinching mark

initial tally.
An Emory & Henry fumble deep
in Wasp territory set up the sec

sponsible for the final tally.
The slaw-starting Apps failed to
pick up a first down in the open
ing quarter but came back with a
high-speed offense is the final two
periods. In the second period, the
victors drove froaa their own 20
to the Emory It Henry 27 before
being stopped on downs.
The losers mounted a 48-yard
drive midway of the first quarter
whieh brought them their Ion*
touchdown. A 18-yard pass wa*
the longest gain in the inarch,
climaxed when fullback Ray Lead
better went over from three yards
out. The touchdown was set up by
a pass interference penalty which
gave the Wasps possession on the
three-yard line. The try for point
failed.
The Mountaineers wasted little
time in crossing paydirt in the
third period. A fumble recovery
gave them the ball on the E & H
37 and in seven plays the Apps
had a touchdown. Halfback Bill
Bradley picked up most of the
yardage in the drive, but it was
fullback Jim Hayes who carried
the final 10 yards.
