(UPI) _ Cool-playing Dave Marr had a feeling he would win the $20,000 Azalea Open golf tournament and the thought frightened him. “I was scared to tee off,” he said Sunday after collecting $2,800 top prize money. “I felt I could knock anything in and almost did it.” But the 27-year-old Sun City, Ariz., pro had to go one extra hole before winning in a sudden ■death playoff with Jerry Steel- ; smith. ; Marr hit a perfect tee shot cm the first hole of the sudden death playoff while Steelsmith—who is 26 years old and still looking for a tournament victory—pushed his shot into the sandy rough. The red-head recovered with a shot 30 feet from the cup. But the winner’s shot to the par four hole was so true to its mark that it almost hit the pin and bounced four feet away. Steelsmith ran his putt past the cup and came back with a par while Marr dropped in the birdie putt. Pro Basketball NBA PLAYOFFB Eastern Division Philadelphia 110, Boston 106 (Saturday).

Felipe Alou Leads Giants In Exhibitions By JOE SARGIS United Frew International Willie Mays and Orlando Cepeda, the San Francisco Giants* answer to the Yankees’ “M<ndM" boys and the Tigers* “C-and-C” twins, may have a new hitting partner in Felipe Alou. Last year. Mays and Cepeda hit 86 homers between them and accounted for 265 runs batted in. Both figures compared favorably with the 115 homers and 270 Rl’s recorded by Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris of the Yankees and the 86 homers and 272 RBl's turned in by Norman Cash and Rocky Colavito of the Tigers when you consider the San Francisco stars played in what many admit was a tougher league. Now with the National League expanded and the pitching spread out to 10 clubs instead of eight, both Mays and Cepeda are expected to top even last year’s high-water marks in homers and runs batted in. Alou. a solid 6-footer who packs 195 pounds, rapped 18 homers and had 52 RBl’s a year ago when he split outfield duties with kid brother Matty and Harvey Kuenn. Felipe rammed homers No. 6 and 7 Sunday, tops in a grapefruit Cactus league play, while leading the Giants to a 7-4 victory over the Boston Red Sox. Alou, who has hit four of his homers at the Giants' traing base in Phoenix, currently is batting .483. Cepeda, who hit homer No. 6, is batting .383 and Mays, who has three thus far, is batting .323. Juan Marichal, just back from his honeymoon, pitched six smooth innings in Sunday’s win over the Red Sox, striking out six batters and allowing just one earned run. The neighboring Chicago Cubs, who have been riddling all kinds of pitching this spring, continued the assault Sunday with a 20-hit barrage against Warren Spahn, Bob Hendley and Cecil Butler in whipping the Milwaukee Braves, 16-6, at Mesa, Ariz. Rookies Lou Brock and Ken Hubbs were the big swingers again. Lou, hit flush on the helmet by Spahn in the first inning, retaliated with his fourth homer,' a towering shot off Spahn that sailed over the scoreboard in center field. Hubbs, in addition to having a brilliant day in the field, went 3-for-5, including a grand slam homer off Butler in the eighth. Spahn, who is finding it tough getting into swing this spring, was rocked for 10 runs and 15 hits in six innings. In addition to Brock’s circuit clout, which went for a triple when the rookie forgot to touch home plate, Spahn was belted for a two-run homer by Ernie Banks. At Las Vegas, Nev., the Cleveland Indians nipped the Los Angeles Dodgers, 6-5, on pinch hitter Doc Edwards’ sacrifice fly in the ninth following a double, two singles and a base on balls. Rookie pitcher Nick Willhite was the victim while Don Rudolph picked up the win in relief. Elsewhere, the St Louis Cardinals, picked by many to win the NL pennant, scored three runs in the ninth and three more in the 19th to beat the pesky New York Mets, 7-4 ... Rookie catcher Bill Bryan hit successive homers off Jim Bunning in the third and fifth innings to pace the Kansas City A’s to a 12-5 romp over the Detroit Tigers... The Chicago White Sox defeated! he Cincinnati Reds, 10-6 .. . The Los Angeles angels nipped Dallas- Ft. Worth, 10-9 ... and Oklahoma City routed the Houston Colt 455, 14-4. Hockey Results National League Chicago 4, Montreal 1 (Montreal leads best of seven series, 2-1), New York 5, Toronto 4 (Toronto leads best of seven series 2-1).

(UPI) — Dave Ragan of Sun City, Fla., and Phil Rodgers of La Jolla, Calif., rounded out the field of 137 golfers today for the 26th annual Masters golf tournament which begins here Thursday. Officials at famed Augusta National issued invitations to the two Sunday. They said the pair were selected on the basis of showings on the PGA circuit durin g the season. The announcement came at the end of the Azalea Open in Wilmington, N. C., Sunday. Invitations have now been extended to nearly all living and past golfing greats, including Horton Smith who won the first Masters in 1934 and young Jack Nicklaus, the ex-amateur who turned pro this year. Among the favorites this year are Arnold Palmer, who won the Masters in 1958 and 1960 and finished one and two strokes off the pace in 1959 and 1961 respectively; defending champion Gary Player of South Africa, Palmer’s archrival. Player last year became the first foreigner to win the Masters. U.S. Open champion Gene Littler and Nicklaus also appear to be among the favorites. Doug Sanders, Tommy Aaron, Bo Winninger and a dozen others could upset the favorites’ apple cart. Also on hand for golfdom’s greatest challenge will be veterans Sam Snead and Ben Hogan, two of the most outstanding golfers in the Masters for two decSnead has won the Masters three times, Hogan twice. But neither has finished among the front-runners during the past four years.

White Sox To Renew 'Go-Go' Game In 1962 EDITORS NOTE: Thia is another in a aeries of dispatches mi the 1962 prospects of the major league baseball elabs. By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Writer SARASOTA, Fla. (UPI) — It’s going to be “the go-go-go” Chicago White Sox again this year and manager Al Lopez, an incurable optimist, insists they have the wherewithal! to win the American League pennant. “The Yankees can be beaten and we’re the club to do it," says Lopez. He has said that every spring since he started managing in the major leagues with Cleveland back in 1951 and has been right only twice. He won with the Indians in 1954 and with the White Sox in 1959, being the only manager who has beaten out the Yankees in the past 12 years. Since that 1959 victory, Lopez has been slipping down grade. His 1960 White Sox finished third, his last year’s club fourth—the only two finishes he has had below first or second place. Those two finishes convinced Lopez he was wrong when he revamped the White Sox for the 1960 season, sacrificing speed, pitching and defense for power. So he let go such veteran power hitters as Roy Sivers and Minnie Minoso and veteran pitchers Billy Pierce and Don Larsen to get more youth on the club. Lopez Changes Strategy "When we won in 1959," explains Lopez, “we won on speed, pitching and defense. That is what we are going to feature in 1962.” For Minosp the White Sox received Joe Cunningham from the St. Louis Cardinals and he will take over the first base post held down most of last season by Sievers. For Sievers, they got third baseman Charlie Smith and pitcher John Buzhardt from the Phillies. For Pierce and Larsen they received first baseman-outfielder Bob Farley and pitchers Eddie Fisher and Dorn Zanni from the San Francisco Giants. Lopez figures that Buzhardt, despite his 6-18 record with Philadelphia, will be one of his regular starters along with Juan Pizarro (14-7), Frank Baumann (10-13), Ray Herbert, (9-6 with the White Sox and 3-6 with Kansas City) and rookie Joel Horten, who won 12 at San Diego last season. Wynn May Help Early Wynn, out most of last season with a sore arm and who needs only eight victories to reach the coveted 300-game winning mark, is another starting possibility. Another question mark hurier is Herb Score. Wynn won eight and lost two last season before he was disabled. Score was 7-6 at San Diego and then one one and lost two with the White Sox. Turk Lown (7-5), Zanni (4-4 at Tacoma and 1-1 with the Giants) and Fisher (9-5 at Tacoma and 0-2 with the Giants, probably will form the bullpen brigade. Cunningham will start at first base and Smith who hit only .248 with the Phillies and Dodgers, willstart outat third. Shortstop and second base are set with Luis Aparicio (.272) and Nellie Fox (.251) respectively. Two outfield positions are set with fleet Jim Landis (.283 with 22 HRs and 85 RBIs) in center and Floyd Robinson (.310 with 11 HRs and 59 RBIs) in left. Rookie Mike Herschberger, who hit .310 at San Diego and then batted .309 with the White Sox when they called him up late in the season, has the inside track for the left field jbo. If he doesn’t make it, Al Smith :.278 with 28 HRs and 93 RBIs) will take over. Sherm Lollar, who hit .281 with seven HRs and 41 RBIs last season, and Camilo Carreon, will share the catching duties. Carreon came on fast last season when Lollar was injured and wound up hitting .271 with four HRs and 27 RBIs.

Pistons Stun Lakers With Win Saturday LOS ANGELES (UPD—A single Detroit Pistons’ victory in the National Basketball Association Western Division playoffs—simply an irritation to Los Angeles several days ago — now has been compounded into a good cause for panic by the Lakers. When the Pistons won last Ttarsday night’s fourth game at Detroit of the best four-of-seven series — after Los Angeles won three in a row—it meant that the Lakers would be unable to wrap up the title ’with four quick victories and would have to return again to the West Coast. But when Detroit shocked the Lakers, 132-125, Saturday night at the Sports Arena, the Pistons’ first victory in 13 games in Log AngMes, it put nightmarish dreams into the head of Laker Coach Fred Sehaus. The two teams return to Detroit for Tuesday’s sixth game. "We were afraid of something like this,” sighed Sehaus. “Now we have to go to Detroit and you know what that home court means to a pro club.” Besides the home court advantage, Detroit also will have that tremendous spark of momentum —gained from its two consecutive victories.

an unprecedented three successive years by the Celtics. McGuire’s summation concerned an outbreak of bare-knuckle violence in Boston’s 119-104 victory over the Warriors Sunday. “After aIK this is for big money. These guys are way up for these games. They’re fighting mad,” McGuire said. The Celtics, leading for the third time in the series, appeared to win the game but gain, at best, split decisions in the side battles. Carl Braun's split lip was the principal injury, and was not expected to affect seriously his playing status. ! However, the list of combatants on both sides read fairly long.
