...Watson stood in the center of the Bosky Amphitheater at the 18th green of the Augusta National golf course last Sunday and stroked in a tap-in to win the Masters. Watson was not quite as resplendent as Jimmy Demaret was when he won the tournament on Easter Sunday, 1947, clad in canary yellow from head to foot, but then all anyone notices in the end is the green jacket traditionally given to the Masters champion...
...tree-lined fairway of the 18th hole at Stow Acres isn't exactly the same as Magnolia land at Augusta National, but when freshman Jim Dales floated his approach to within seven feet of the flagstick, Harvard had the match sewn...

At age 21 he persuaded backers to start a new radio station in Augusta, Ga., for him to run. J.B. soon talked the owner of a bottling company into selling out for a share of future profits. Wheeling and dealing, he was able to buy his own radio station in 1949; by 1953 he had branched into TV. The profits allowed him to use his spare time to serve four terms in the Georgia legislature...
