...kind of liked Firestone. With the help of his trusty sandwich, Al won last year's American Golf Classic at Akron, and he MOORE celebrated his return last week by firing a two-underpar 68 in the first round-while pre-tournament Favorites Palmer and Nicklaus were scoring 75s and Bobby Nichols, the 1964 P.G.A. champion, was shooting a horrendous 81. A second-round 72 left Geiberger one stroke off the pace set by doughty old (54) Sam Snead; but Snead was suffering from a painfully pulled groin muscle, dropped six strokes behind next day when Al shot...
Nine holes later, everybody was. Washington weather is never much to brag about, but for the 36-hole final round, it was atrocious. The temperature reached 97, and the humidity could drown a man. Nicklaus shot a 77, Palmer and Lema blew to 75s. But Venturi, in some astonishing way, suddenly became that sculpture again...
...noses and split lips behind, scrappy Battery D landed at Tilbury Docks on the Thames. Then it was shipped to Le Havre, and ten minutes after it arrived was in a fight with British Tommies.

...North China, where the Communists hold no large cities and are essentially raiders, the problem is one of cornering and capturing guerrillas. For this purpose light-armed, fast-moving troops are needed, equipped with jeeps, half-tracks, light trucks, small arms, machine guns and 75s.

Tyke Wilcox, lead-off man in the links lineup, has climbed down dangerously close to par, with two 75s, a 76, and 79 to his credit. Ed Egan hit Williams with a 76, and Bill Rickenbacker, Sam Savidge, and Walter Robb have also broken into the wonderful 70s. These five, in addition to Bob Orr, Lincoln Kinnicutt, John Noble, Walt Butler, Joe Gordon, Larry Gray, and Ozzie Keiver make...
