Patton, Mayer Lead Field In ? National Open TOLEDO. Ohio (UP)—lt’s suffering Saturday in the U.S. Open today with two guys who felt frustration for three years battling head and head in a bid for America’s greatest fairway prise. Amateur Billy Joe Patton—hoping to be the first amateur winner in almost a quarter century—and suave Dick Mayer lead 53 survivors into the two final rounds at Inverness club and come sundown there are going to be a lot of broken hearts. Patton, the 35-year-old lumberman from Morganton, N.C., and the handsome Mayer, a native New Yorker, know all about that already. They both took their lumps back in 1954. Both Blew Chances That was when Patton held the lead going into the final round of the Masters, only to lose out in the stretch as he faded before the deadlock drive of Slammin' Sammy Snead and Bantam Ben Hogan That year, too, Mayer knew gloomy times as he had this same Open within his grasp and lost it

to Ed Furgol in the final holes. Whether he or Patton win or lose, they’ll have to fight for it today over the roiling, sun-baked acres at Inverness. Because only two shots behind their leading two-round totals of 138 and charging at them are grim-faced Doug Ford, the current Masters champion, and young Ken Venturi of San Francisco. • They aren’t the only ones in it —although it looks like another disappointment for four-time run-ner-up Sammy Snead, who shot his second straight 74 for 148. Demaret Three Back Jimmy Demaret, the 47-year-old golfing grandfather who was the first round co-leader with a 68. stumbled Friday but still fell only three shots back at 141 aong with Bo Wininger of Odessa. Tex. That was better than the fate of the other co-leader, Chick Harbert, who skidded to a fat 79 which dropped him all the way back to 147. | Another threat with two rounds to go as the field battles heat, par and pressure is swarthy Roberto DiVicenzo, the Argentinian slugger from Mexico City. He is at 142. four strokes off the lead and one ahead of three-time British Open king Peter Thomson, and still major threats at 144 are former champion Julius Boros, boyish Fred Hawkins, square - jawed Bud Ward and Sam Penecalc of Philadelphia. A heap of the big names of golf failed to survive those first two rounds, including Furgol and former champions Lloyd Mangrum and Gene Sarazen. Stepping down with them went such as Mike Souchak, Arnold Palmer, Ted Kroll. Dutch Harrison, Shelley Mayfield, Don Cherry, Vic Ghezzi, Denny Shute and the veteran Bobby Cruickshank. Patton was “driving and putting tlke’’ crazy” as he shot a 34-34—68 Friday to go with an earlier 70 that pushed him into a tie for the of the hottest nine holes of the lead. Mayer deadlocked him by virtue of the hottest nine holes of the tournament, an “in” 32 for a 68 on which he scored birdies on four of the last five holes Archery Club Plans Shoot Here Sunday The Limberlost Archery club will hold a club shoot at its range west of Decatur Sunday afternoon, starting at 1:30 o’clock. All club members are urged to participate. LittlM League Games Tonight Postponed Friday afternoon’s downpour washed out tonight’s scheduled Little League games, slated for a double header at Worthman field in the season opener. Rain had earlier prevented play Tuesday and Friday. Weather permitting, the first Little League game will be played at 6 o'clock Monday evening, matching the White Sox against the Senators. This will be followed by a Pony League game between the two Decatur teams, the Cardinals and Braves.

Redlegs' Loss String Broken By Kluszewski By MILTON RICHMAN United Press Sports Writer Big Ted Kluszewski, was ‘‘a bit disappointed” today, which baffled the Cincinnati Redlegs no end because all he did was slam a homer, a double and two singles to keep them within a half game of the National League lead. Kluszewski, off the disabled list only two days, went on his tear against the New York Giants Friday night in pacing the Redlegs to a 5-4 victory that snapped their four-game losing streak. So what’s he unhappy about? Just this: “I loused up a great opportunity in the ninth inning,” he chided himself. “Red Worthington gave me a real good pitch and I should have put it.in the seats. Instead, I flied out foright field.” Back in the Cincinnati lineup only the second day after being sidelined all season, Klu connected for his homer with one on in the sixth off one of Stu Miller's "gravity pitches.” That broke a 1-1 tie and put the Redlegs ahead to stay. Braves HoM Lead The Milwaukee - Braves clung to first place with a 10-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies; Junior Gilliam stole home with two out in the 10th to give Brooklyn a 2-1 thriller over St. Louis, and the Chicago Cubs snapped Pittsburgh’s five - game winning streak with an 11-5 decision. In the American League, the White Sox maintained their fourgame lead by humbling Washington, 10-4, while the second - place Yankees crushed Kansas City 10,-1 with the help of Mickey Mantle’s 19th homer. Cleveland topped Baltimore 7-2. and Detroit wiped out a three-run deficit to beat Boston, 5-4. Southpaw Warren Spahn of the Braves posted his seventh triumph as his teammates racked four Philadelphia hurlers for 13 hits, including Hank Aaron’s 17th homer with two on Spahn yielded only three hits. Gilliam made his game-winning steal of home with the bases full when young Lindy McDaniel took too long a windup. Ken Boyer put the Cards ahead with a second inning homer but the Dodgers tied the score in the sixth on a walk and two singles. Don Newcombe pitched an eight-hitter for his fifth victory. The Cubs rapped out 17 hits, including four by newly - acquired Chuck Tanner, in sending Ronnie Kline down to his ninth setback. Rookie Dick Drott was the winner although prosperity went to his head with an 11-1 lead in the eighth and he gave way to Don Elston. Ernie Banks had a home run and a pair of doubles for the Cubs in their biggest run total of the campaign. Stobbs Loses 11th Al Lopez’ White Sox turned on luckless Chuck Stobbs for four runs in the first inning and six more in the fifth as the Washington southpaw suffered his 11th defeat,of the year against no victories. ’Walt Dropo homered in the first inning. Dick Donovan had a shutout until Jim Lemon and Bob Usher tagged him for homers in the ninth. That brought in Bob Keegan, who gave up a homer to Eddie Yost before retiring the 77 side. The Yankees knocked out Wally Burnette w|th a five-run outburst in the fifth inning as Tom Sturdivant scattered eight K.C hits for his fifth victory. Mantle hit his homer with one on in the eighth
