Penna, Snead Pace Open;
Nelson Is Still Favored
• CLEVELAND, June 14-
Snuggled in a nine-day deadlock
for fifth place, two strokes off the
sizzling pace as the second 18-hole
round started today. Byron Nelson
of Toledo still was the people’s
choice—and his own—to win this
46th National Open golf cham-
pionship
The transplanted Texan fired a
36-35—71, one under par for the
tough Canterbury golf club ter-
rain. and then declared
I was misjudging my distance
on second shots all day But that’s
the last mistake I ll be making in
this tournament "
Any poor judgment on second
shots wasn’t apparent as the 1939 |
open king and present ruler of the I
PGA tinged a No. 4 wood to within
three feet of the cup on the 483-
yard 13th ohle and then holed the |
putt for an eagle.
Out front as the all-star cast
started today’s play were Toney
Penna of Cincinnati, O., who fin-
ished in a third-place tie in the
1938 championship at Denver, and
Sam Snead of Hot Springs, Va.,
who has made several valiant but
futile bids to annex golfdom’s
greatest prize.
The two leaders clipped three
strokes off Canterbury’s par 72.
Penna with 35-34 and Snead with
34-35.
While Snead was playing his
usual red-hot opening round, Pen-
nas appearance in the top spot
came as the day s big surprise.
Penna’s putter was his key to the
I hall of fame as the 38-year-old
darkhorse had 10 one putt greens
and used only 26 strokes on the
putting surfaces.
Veteran Mike Turnesa of White
Plains, N. Y., one of seven golfing
brothers, and Bob Hamilton of
Chicago, former PGA champion,
pulled into second place with sub-
par 70a.
Keeping Nelson company in the
71 bracket were Jimmy Demaret
of Houston, Tex, Ed Porky)
Oliver of Wilmington, Del Henry
Ransom of Houston, Texas, Vic
Ghezzi of Knoxville, Tenn., Steve
Kovach of Ligonier, Pa Scudday
Horner of Montgomery, Ala.,
Henry G. Picard, the home club
professional, and Stewart Alexan-
der of Lexington, N. C.
Eddie Meister Jr . of Cleveland
matched par with 72 to pace the
amateur contingent, a stroke
ahead of Ted Adams of Kansas
City and Gene Dahlbender Jr., 22-
year-old Georgian.

IN the opinion of Mack Turner, veteran Lubbock scribe inefficient
I umpiring was largely responsible for Abilene’s 18-4 victory
over the Hubbers up at Lubbock last night
We were ahead 1-0,” Mack asserted by long distance tele-
phone when Ozark hit a foul boll down the third base line Why
it was foul by at least a foot and our left fielder didn't even chase
for it Three runs scored.”
Early this week Harry Gilstrap, the capable Amarillo sports
editor predicted Hack Miller would be canned by the Lubbock
club ow ners.
Turner says there’s no chance.
Hack is a good manager," he said. "We like him in Lubbock.
Hack will be here when the rest are gone.”

Associated Press Sports Writer
The per-season prediction that
baseball was in for its biggest year
financially was borne out today
with the disclosure that with only
one third of the seaosn gone, ex-
actly 6,298,060 fans—more than
twice last year's attendance at this
corresponding date—have paid
their way into the 16 major league
ball parks. *
Not only is a new attendance
mark for the year a virtual cer-
tainty, but if the fans continue to
flock to the games at the same
rate, last year s record breaking
attendance of 10,951,502 may even
be doubled.
As the majors took a one-day
"vacation" while the intersectional
rivals prepared to clash for the
fourth time, the Yankees' amazing
home total of 1,113,849 for 34
home games was much the best.
Never before has any team hit
the million mark at this early
date. In all of their 77 home tilts
last year, the Yanks attracted
only 881,845 fans.
Already the Bronx Bombers are
within 175,573 of the all-time
American league high which they
set in 1920 with 43 games re-
maining, they are reasonably cer-
tain to surpass the major league
mark of 1,485,166 by the Chicago
Cubs of 1929. Four times the
season the Yanks topped 60,000
with their 88.193 of May 12 their
high water mark in four con-
tests under the lights, they drew
230,587.
The American league leading
Boston Red Sox, with Teddy Wil-
liams and Dave (Boo) Ferriss as
their main attractions, rank second
to the Yankees at the gate with
621,600 in 34 games. This total
already tops the Red Sox entire
home attendance last year whelk
they drew 603,794 for 77 home
engagements.' : •
