Harbert of Northville, Mich. Three Have 70 One-time Memphis, Tenn., dentist Cary Middlecoff, who now plays out of Hollywood, Fla., was two strokes back with 70, along with Flory Van Donck of Belgium and Arnold Palmer of Latrobe, Pa The low amateur for the first round was Bill Hyndman of Philadelphia, who shot a 71, along with eight professionals. They included Fred Hawkins, El Paso, Tex ; Byron Nelson, Roanoke, Tex.; Claude Harmon. Mamaroneck, N.Y.; Lionel Hebert, Lafayette, La.; Billy Maxwell, Odessa, Tex.; Roberto De Vicenzo, Mexico City; Jack Fleck, Rochester, Mich.; and Art Wall Jr., Pocono Manor, Pa.

Tex., a two-time winner and four-time runner-up. One other former Masters winner, 50-year-old Henry Picard of Cleveland, also toured the 6,850yard course in even par Snead scored the only eagle of the first day’s play when he dropped a 16 foot putt on the par five second hole after a tremendous second shot with a three iron to the green. However he bogied the hole and was one over par on the back nine to shoot even par for the day.

Venturi, leading money winner on the thournament circuit so far this year, came to Augusta destined for the favorite’s role. Started Fast Two years ago, then an amateur, he started out like a house afire with rounds of 66 and 69, . held the lead despite a 75 the , third day, but blew to an 80 in . the final round to lose by one stroke to Jack Burke Jr? That was as close as an amateur ever . has come to winning the Masters title. i Both Venturi and his number one fan—pretty wife Conni—credited his superb approach shots and deadly putting for his fine first round score. Conni, a shapely brown-haired beauty who was stylishly dressed in matching pink skirt and sweater as she followed her husband around the course, said she didn’t think Ken was driving well at all. “But he's putting and chipping as well as anyone could,” she added proudly. However, Venturi said he thought his driving improved in the latter stages of the round. "’Die course played comparatively easy to what they can do with it here,” Venturi said, adding “They still have some places they, haven’t used yet on those greens for the pans.” Los Angeles Dodgers Nearer To New Park LOS ANGELES (W —- The Los Angeles Dodgers were a step closer today to their new baseball park.

Picks Braves And Yanks To Win Pennants TAMPA. Fla. '(UP) f There comes a time each spring when baseball fever leads the so-called experts to pick the forthcoming pennant winners. So who’ll it be in 1958? The Milwaukee Braves and the New York Yankees- That's chalk, as they say in horse racing, all the way. Why stick to chalk? Because the Braves and Yanks have all the horses. Things can change, of course, with such things as trades, injuries and the like. But after spending six weeks watching the 12 major league clubs training in Florida and examining reports on how things are going with the four dubs who base their conditioning camps in Arizona, it comes down to tHis: National League 1. Milwaukee; 2. Los. Angeles; 3. St Louis; 4. Cincinnati: 5. Philadelphia; 6. Pittsburgh; 7. San Francisco; 8. ChicagoAmerican League 1. New York; 2. Chicago; 3. Detroit; 4. Boston; 5. Cleveland; 6. Baltimore; 7. Kansas City; 8. Washington. Os the two pennant picks, we like the Yankees the best. We agree With Cookie Lavagetto, the manager of the Washington Senators, when he says the Yankees will win by 15 games. “They have players in the minors who would be out there every day for me,'’ Lavagetto explains- - ' '■■■' A—i_ The world champion Braves are almost as well-stocked. But there is one big difference. The key players of the Braves aren’t too happy with the way they were treated when it came to their 1958 salaris. They had to hold out, and then finally accepted terms which were not completely satisfactory. Add to that, the quiet Simon-Legree methods of manager Fred Haney, and you’ll find the team spirit of the Braves several notches lower than that of the Yankees. That could hurt. The Yankees may not have the gilt-edged pitching of the Chicago White Sox, but they have all the other things — power hitting, the best bench in baseball, defense, and one of the craftiest managers ot them all in Casey StengeL Amish Couples Are Ordered Into Court The three Wooster, 0., Amisii couples whose children refused to attend school even after a court order, have been ordered back into court. The couples, who refused to send their sons to school after they completed the eighth grade, were jailed for -12 days, then freed.
