Two Share Lead In Tam O'Shanler Meet CHICAGO (UP)—Two old hands at playing golf for money, one of whom has already raked in s24i--132.17 and the other pocketing $12,482.93, today led the pacK reaching for the Tam O’Shanter "World” Open's $50,000 first prize as the tourney moved into its third round. Cary Middlecoff, second among the nation’s money-winners, anti Bo Wininger, who copped a college golf crown as a freshman some years back, boasted sparkling nine under par 36-hole totals of 135 today., closely followed by a quintet carding 136's. ’ The galleries, however, appear to be siding with a heretofore unknown Chicago pro, Erie Ball, who lifts his cap from his slightly balding head and politely thanks them after they applaud him. Ball, who connected with a conamendable 6 6in Thursday’s opening round, held up under pressure and shot a 70 Friday to join Australia's Peter Thomson, Jerry Barber of Los Angeles. Pete Cooper of Birmingham, Mich., and Ted Kroll of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., with 136.

Browns Blank All-Sfars By 26T00 Score CHICAGO (UP) — An, "ordinary” pro offense, which included a record four field goals by Lou "The Toe” Groza, was more than good enough to whip the 1956 College All Stars, coach Paul Brown of the Cleveland Browns said today. "Our defense looked a lot better than it did in last year’s game.” he said, overlooking the 1955 loss by a 30-27 score when he had avenged it by Friday night's 26-0 count. "Our offense was just ordinary. The Browns displayed expert basic football, though, intercepting two of the All Stars' 10 passes and permitting the collegians to complete qnly two attempts for 12 yards. It was good basic football, too, when the pros recovered two of three All Star fumbles, held the collegiate offense to 121 yards rushing and gave Groza fine protection for his four field goals. Groza kicked the ball over the crossbars from the 45, 37, 31 and 34 yard lines as well as converting after both Cleveland touchdowns to ring up 14 points for the night, an individual performance eclipsed only by Don Hutson’s 19 points for Green Bay in 1940. It was a new All Star game record for field goals, too, both for an individual and for a team. The individual mark was set by Ohio State's Tad Weed when he kicked three field goals for the All Stars last year. The mark had been set by a team in 1939 when Ward Cuff kicked one field goal and Ken Strong two in a 9-0 New York Giants win.
