True, Arnold's father made him the golfer he is today, but his mother made him the champion and wonderful all-round guy. I might mention at this point that she is my mother also and that I grew up under her guidance just as Arnold...
...hole tactician, his cautious strategy is simply to finish well up in the money (since 1958 Finsterwald has won only 10 of his 105 tournaments, but finished fifth or better 48 times, including 16 seconds).

While the scouts admire Penn State Quarterback Richie Lucas for his all-round ability in both passing and running, they rank him behind Meredith because he falls short of outstanding mastery in either-and mastery in a specialty is a prerequisite for the pro. Sure to be drafted: Notre Dame's George Izo ("He has a pure arm on long passes, there...
