'NO PLACE FOR SHOTMAKING
Elder statesman Snead blames problems On
t architects
SAN ANTONIO, Tex. (P)-Sam
Snead, shooting for his fourth
PGA title here this week at the
age of 56, says golf is not much
fun; any more-the architects have
made it a drag.
"There no longer is any place
for shotmaking," the hillbilly styl-
ist added Tuesday as he took a
practice swing around the 7,896,-
yard Pecan Valley Country Club
Course with Open Champion Lee
Trevino. "It's all grunt and groan.
"Every course now has to be
more than 1,000 yards. It's not
unusual any more to have 263-
yard par three holes dead into the
wind or 480-yard par fours uphill.
"The fairways are so narrow
you can still have a perfect shot
and not have a chance for the
green, and then you can lose a
ball in the rough a foot off the
fairway."
Slammin' Samnmy-as he was
affectionately called back in the
1940s and 1950s-is the elder
statesman of the 168 teaching and
tournament pros who tee off
Thursday in the 50th professional
golfers association championship.
He isn't taken lightly by his
rivals, not even those half his age.
His swing is the silkiest in the
game, a model fd rthe youngsters.
His problems, lie ,other of the
aging, is on the greens and Sam
has tried everything from cro-
quet-style now outlawed to side-
saddle and orthodox.

NIGHT EDITOR:.
PHIL BROWN
He recaptured some of his old
form last week to get second mo-
ney in the Milwaukee Open, won I
by young Dave Stockton.
"Like all courses, this one is,
built for the hitter," Sam said.
"You just crank up and-wham-
mo. That's the name of the game
now.
" "You have to favor hig hitters
such as Jack Nicklaus, Tom Weis-
kopf and Bobby Nichols, but don't
count out this little guy."
fHe pointed to Trevino, the
Mexican-American from El Paso
and Dallos who won the Open at
Rochester, N.Y. last month.
"He keeps the ball in play. He's
great around the greens." .
Snead had most of his hair and
very little of his present paunch
when he won his first PGA in
1942 when the event was match
play. He. won again in 1949 and
1951. He was xunner-up ,in 1938
and 1940.
Trevino has lost 12
pounds,
much of it.around his middle, but
none of his brashness since he
played the role of rollicking star
at Oak Hill.
"This is my country," the little
Mexican-American said. "Man,
I'm so keyed .up I want to jump
right out of my skin."
Like Snead, Trevino just toyed
around the course, hitting two
and three balls on some holes.
"The course plays long, and
you've got to be straight," Trevino
said, "but I life it. The tighter
the fairways, the heavier the
rough, the better it is for me. I
think the rough ought to be up
to your knees."
Three former champions-Vic,
Ghezzi, Jack Burke and Chick
Harbert-withdrew, but 17 men
who have won this title were left
in the field.
Trevino is one of seven Open
winners in the field, which in-
cludes Nicklaus, Bill Casper and
Arnold Palmer, just back from the
bone-chilling winds and gorse of A
Old Carnoustie in Scotland.
South Africa's Gary Player, who
won there last week, isn't entered.
Neither is Roberto de Vincenzo of
Argentina, the 1967 British win-
ner.
Palmer, the jet-planing' mil-
lionaire, played nine holes in the M
morning, flew to Vail, Colo., to
attend a graduatiph at one of his
golf-schools and then planned to
fly back for another nine before
dark.
Defending champion Don Jan-
uary, a Texan accustomed to the
intense heat anid courses that fa-
vor the pitch-and-run, said he
believed those' players who com-
peted in Britain last week would
be severely handicapped.
"Changing to different teiper-
aturps, the bigger ball and the
five-hour time difference-I just
don't see how they can do it," he A
said.
U. S. OPEN WINNER Lee Trevino tours the Peach Valley Country Club course in San Antonio,;
Texas, previous to today's start of the PGA. With Trevino are 285 orphans, his guests for a day
in the country. Trevino is considered one of the tournament's favorites because of his local
popularity.

Yankee debut
NEW YORK (/P) - Rocky Cola-
vito, a Yankee Stadium auto-
graph hound as a teen-ager, put
his own mark on an American
League baseball Tuesday night
and gave himself a nice home-
coming present.
The veteran outfielder, who'll
be 35 next month, made his de-
but with the New York Yankees,
who signed him as a free agent
Monday,. and walloped a three-
run homer for the first runs in a
4-0 triumph over Washington in
the opener of a twi-night double-
header.
Colavito sat out the nightcap,
which the Yankees also won, 4-3,
on Joe Pepitone's two-run homer.
"It was just, great, terrific,"
Colavito said. "It was a special
nom .run and gave me a big
boost._r
"I used to live about a mile
over the left-field fence," contin-
ued Colavito, who was born and
raised in the Bronx. "I waited !
outside this stadium for auto-
graphs many a time both before,
and after games. As a laid I al-
ways wanted to be a Yankee.",
Colavito connected on his sec-r
ond trip to the plate in the fifth
inning of a scoreless game after
Pepitone and Andy Kosco . had'
singled.
Joe. Coleman, the Washington
pitcher, quickly got two strikes
on the Rock: With the count 3-2,
Colavito fouled off six pitches be-
fore drilling the ball deep into
the left field seats.
"He made some good pitches,
that son - of - a - gun," Colavito
said. "I had batting practice that
one time up. I got a great recep-
tion in the dugout. I don't think
anyone missed me.".
The homer was the 370th of
his career and tied him with Gil
Hodges for 15th place on the, all-
time home run list.
The Yanks signed him after
the Los Angeles Dodgers, for.
whom he hit .204 with only three
homers, released him.'
Colavito spurned Yankees as a
youth to sign with Cleveland,
which offered $1,500 more. He
played with the Indians, Tigers,
Athletics, W h i t e Sox and
Dodgers.'
"No, I wasn't nervous," he said.
"I've been here so many times
on the other side, you know. I
didn't even go to the wrong club-
house. I knew from chasing auto-
graphs years ago which side of
the stadium the Yanks were on."

"We play a regular round-
robin to determine places in theE
leagues," says Lou Jankowski,I
whio is in charge of 'the opera-
tion
"One league plays each night,
with two playing on Tuesdays;
this ends next week. Then we
start our tournament on July 29,
with the second round on July 31.
The finals will be played on
August 5."
The five leagues are made up
entirely of independent teams,
formed by fraternities, college de-
partments, and various "inter-
ested groups."
The games are all under the
aegis of hired umpires, who call
the pitches and have full author-
ity over each contest. '
Among teams com peting are
the Hurricanes (from the Meteor-
ology Department) and the Jolly
Green Giants (Botany), as well
as such unlikely contenders as
the Firebrewers (two teams), the
Carlton Nads and the NEs (both
unexplained).
A glance at the leagues' stand-
ings can tell a lot about the
groups represented. Higher Edu-
cation, for instance, is mired in
