PAGE FOUR Parade By OSCAR FRALEY H • United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK OP) The touring golf professionals in sist that “you drive for fun but you putt for money” and the answer seems to be that there is no easy way to be come a finanoier of the fairways. There is no secret 10 good putting, according to what I can discover. You either put it in the hole or you don’t. If you do, you’re a winner. But there isn’t any one way to do it. Line up a lew professionals and ask them about it and that’s the an swer you’ll get. They use p, wider assortment of putters, stances and grips than Heinz ever heard about and most of the time they’re all screaming except the guy whQ winds up winning the tournament. He won because he was putting. . ; Chief Moaner Sammy Snead is one of the chief moaners and yet a * fellow like Jimmy Demaret calls the Slammer president ; ; of the “S <S? E Club.” !■ | “All you can see after Sam putts is his seat and el bows as he bends over to lift the ball out of the cup,” De > I maret grins. Consider former National Open champion Julius TBo • ros as an example. Big Jay has three methods of putting wristy, not -so - wristy and firm - wristed. He simply changes from qne to the other as he loses his “touch.” J On the other hand, Lew Worsham uses the same method practically all of the time but he solves the prob- I lem by usings two' different types of putters. In the win ter, on slow greens, he strokes with an aluminum-headed a I mallet. On. the faster summer greens he favors a bjjass » bladed putter, pn the theory that he’ll get about the same I summer- distance with his winter stroke because the ball • comes off the brass faoe more slowly. I Faces Ruin 1 ; You get an argument between Jackson Bradley and \ • young Wally Ulrich. Bradley holds out for experimenta * \tion of all types while Ulrich contends you face utter ruin |' . t with too much wandering. “I was a good putter but by trying to get better I I racked myself up,” Ulrich complains. |, ; Bradley’s rebuttal is that after “trying everything” 'f ’ he has come back to-“essentials’* and is concentrating on * m stroking the ball correctly. I • / Dick Mayer, another of the younger crop, acted just * r ' like ttie veterans pros when he “tried about a dozen dif |- ferent putters.” He partially solved his problem, being ex ceptionally tall, by having a longer’shaft''attached to his ( • blade. “For me it was better to putt from an upright posi [}. ’ tion,” he says, “and by keeping my wrists firm I found I |j- I didn’t hit off line as much.” ( 2 May Be Solution ft * That may be the solution for you physical giants who it 2 feel like you are handling a toy popgun in using the reg ulation size putters on the green. I? I \ Rut, actually, there is no one type of putter or putt- H ; jpg stance which is regarded as the best. It’s strictly up ®iere are essentials. Just About everybody agrees that as j»u putt your eyes should be directly over the bay. Youjf'putter should have “feel” and above all get that fh£ |>utt up close so you won’t three-putt. ... / j There will be days they’ll drop, and days when they h- wc Vt. The happiest pros are those who agree it will aver- I - ag-y out in the end and, Jjust, make the best- of the day’s - .•> "happenings without too much experimentation.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. OP One of four surprising basketball .teams was only two games away from the National Collegiate Athletic Assoc iation championship today, but few would haza-rd a guess on which it would' be. Southern California met Bradley in the first semi-final game at Municipal Auditorium at 10 p. m., EST, with Penn State and La- Salle tangling in the all-Pennsyl vania nightcap at 10:45. KANSAS CITY.
