g Jim "Learns a Few Things’ for PGA, Cards Sizzling 69

By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer

OAKMONT, Pa., June 28—On his second round over the fearsome Oakmont Country Club course Big Jim Ferrier came within one stroke of Bobby Jones’ record 68 so he was the new “man to beat” today in the rugged PGA golf

championship. Most of it depends not so much on the opposition as on whether the rugby - crippled knee of the six foot, four inch Australian holds up for five tough} match play rounds which follow

the final 18 holes of qualifying play today. For the pink-cheeked Ferrier, the first round leader on a three under par 69, upset his fellow professionals when he announced that he had “learned a few things.” Ferrier is not a favorite with the professional contingent. He is not a mixer and, in addition to being a “loner,” he is just too good with the sticks. What it simmers down to is that most of his rival divot diggers are enviou¥! 5 » » BUT THE pros admit that Big Jim, when he’s hot and likes a course, is practically unbeatable.

Gains on Ferrier

OAKMONT, Fa, June 28 (UP)~=Vic Ghezzi of Inwood, N. Y,, the 1941 PGA champion, picked up five strokes on Jim Ferrier today on the first nine holes of the second qualifying round of the PGA golf championship with a three under par 88. Ferrier, first round leader with 69, was one over par at nine with 38.

“THESE greens are just won{derful,” he beamed, while the rest of the pros were moaning about their extreme size and lightning speed. “You need a touch on the putter here, and I think I've got it.” That putting pulled him up front and center in the first 18« hole qualifying round. He had 29 putts, close to a miracle, while firing eight birdies against three bogeys and one double bogey. Jim, as usual, was scrambling madly. But this is the kind of course where you can get away with those tactics. Still, he’s a bit worried, but you ought to see the rest of them,

A Knight i in Shining Armor Sees the Light

The late-stayers at the sixth {annual L. Strauss & Co. golf tournament saw the ‘light in the dark last night. A field of 288 golfers had completed the 18-hole medal play at the Speedway course long after sun-down. Ralph Heinlein of Coffin looked like the sure winner. He had a 34-37 for a par 71 at dinner time. But Heinlein, the 1948 winner of the Strauss tourney, had a pursuer groping his way home by the light of the “silvery” moon. He was Pat Patsue of South Grove. Patsue finished the final four holes in virtual total darkness. He was two under at the 14th. Late followers went out to find him and two spectators continued keeping track of the ball while Patsue hit pars on three of the final four holes. A 30-foot put

two minutes after nine on the 18th green, going slightly amiss, Patsue, who came here from Cleveland last year, had a 33-38 ~—T1. He and Heinlein will hold a playoff at noon Sunday.

Coffin’s Bob Crouch, former city title runnerup, had a 36-37-73. Stanfill and his father Ernie hit a 76 to win the father-son crown. Topping the handicap division with 88-23—85 was C. E.
