LANDOVER, Md. June 9 (U. P.). —National Open Champion Lloyd Mangrum, who wants to win the big title once more so he can really get a thrill out of it, convinced a lot of people that he might get the job done today after his superb performance in winning the $10,000 National Capttal Open. Mangrum'’s stock boomed yesterday when he shot his second consecutive six under par 68 to take first money of $2000 with a 72-hole card of 269. The Purple Heart war hero from Chicago, who will defend his Open title at St. Louis beginning Thursday of this week, hopes that he will have another chance at it because “last year when I won, it all happened so quickly I didn't realize that I actually was the champion.” His victory put him with Bobby
