Lap of Dawn-to-Dusk Meet Over Country Club Course

By J. E.

The sun hadn't been out of bed long when the first foursome moved away from the No. 1 tef, and dusk probably would catch the tail end of the field somewhere before the 4 8 &

the cause is beyond hope.

The purple heart hero did it in language they could understand.| Far from the shock of battle which is so dificult for any who haven't! seen it to understand, the 31-year-| old professional wrote his tale of, courage on a golf course by coming from behind to win the U. 8. Open golf championship by one stroke in a 36-hole playoff with Byron Nelson and Vie Ghezsl. He was terrific when the going was the tougHest, when thunder, lightning and rain roared over Canterbury’s man-killing course, when he was three shots back of CGhesei and two shots back of Nelson with only six more holes to go. i

Has Pair of 72's

He won the playoff with a pair of 72s, while Nelson and Ghesai, for years two of the greatest competitors in the game, finished with 72-73. The three had tied at 284, four under par for the 72 holes, at the end of the regulafion distance Saturday. “I've been a pro since I was 15," Mangrum said. “And now that I've won the big one, watch my smoke.” Immediately, he cancelled plans to go back overseas to compete in the British Open. He'll stay on the trail of American golf for another vear, until another U. 8. Open is played, at least. Mangrum next will eompete in the Inverness fourball shampionship at Toledo, O., this week in which he and Lawson Little are defending champions,
