...from B.A. State's reorganization was under way (TIME, Aug. 27). Last week Jimmy Byrnes accepted the resignation of Assistant Secretary Nelson Rockefeller-the day after Rockefeller, in a Boston speech, had soundly spanked the Argentine Government (see LATIN AMERICA). But he had long been a target for his part in bringing Argentina to the San Francisco Conference...
...Byron Nelson, who has been making it hard for other golf pros to earn a week's pay, finally lost a tournament-after eleven straight wins. Equally surprising, he and his fellow pros (Nelson finished fourth) lost the $10,000 Memphis Open to an amateur.

...when he ran into wiry Mike Turnesa in the second round of match play, the invalid threw away his mental crutches. The veteran Turnesa was red hot. Nelson, just plain hot, was two down with four holes to go, but he was not quite ready to be counted out. Summoning his last reserve of calm (a rival pro says that if Nelson gave anyone a blood transfusion, the beneficiary would come down with pneumonia), the champ shot a birdie and took the 33rd hole. Another birdie evened the match on the 34th. An eagle 3 on the 475-yd. 35th...
