Pace Six THE MICHIGAN DAILY Thursday, July 18, 1968 .,,,.I '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. sports, 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. ,4 McLain gets 18th; Colavito ra Tiger hurler leads majors; headed for 30-win season By The Associated OAKLAND - Denn the Detroit Tigers sa think about winning until he has won 29.

NATIONAL LEAGUE Major League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE ROCKY COLAVITO psHR Blast sparks 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." GB 7 7 t 19 14, 14 141,4 15 17 241!
