Women's Open Starts With Louise Suggs Favoring Amateurs By Associated Press PEABODY, Mass., July I. The Women’s National Open golf championship got under way at Salem Country Club today with a prediction by Louise Suggs that the amateurs had as good a chance to win the event as the professionals. Miss Suggs, leading money winner among the play-for-pay girls so far this year, based her statement on the length of the, 6,393-yard, tree-lined course on which the 72-hole three-day medal tourney is being held. Par is 36-36—72. “There are a lot of long-dis tance hitters among the ama teurs this year like Joyce Ziske, Mickey Wright and Pat Lesser and that’s what this course re quires,” says Louise. “It’s a long course with plenty of sloping terrain that requires deep, high arching drives,” she adds. And its generally agreed that Theodora (Pippy) Rooney, a local girl, drives the ball as hard and far as any of the 21 profes sionals and 32 amateurs in the field. Still, no amateur has ever won the event in its eight-year his tory and the five previous win ners still hold the key to the Open. Babe Zaharias, Miss Suggs and Betsy Rawls, the defending champion, have won twice each w£ile Patty Berg and Betty Jameson have scored single vic tories. Record 40 Stations Slated to Televise Redskins' Games More than 40 stations will carry the Redskins’ football games next season, largest tele vision network ever to carry a pro team through the season. The American Broadcasting Co. will televise the games. WMAL-TV, as in the past, will show all the Redskins’, away games but the home games will be blacked out. Two pre-season exhibition games also have been lined up and the opening exhibition from Los Angeles is a definite possibil ity. The Redskins’ television plans were discussed on a show last night on WMAL-TV. It also was announced that Bill Malone will do the color com mentary on the televised games. Jim Gibbons is replacing Mel Allen as the play-by-play an nouncer on both television and radio. Dempsey Second In Star Camp Fund Hole-in-One Event Warren Dempsey, president of the East Potomac Golf Club, yes terday moved into second place in the hole-in-one tournament for the benefit of The Star’s Summer Camp Fund. Dempsey placed a shot 4% inches from the cup on the 65- yard hole on the East Potomac driving range to move Keith Kallio back to third and also to pick up a daily prize. The hole-in-one made by John Grimm last Saturday is the only ace to date, and is in line for the grand prize of a new set of clubs. The contest, being conducted by Layne Leoffler, Jerry Long and their committee, is open from 9 a.m. until 11 p.m. daily through Monday. The S. G. Leoffler Co. is donating SI,OOO in prizes.

Texan on all fours in the first round of last night’s middleweight bout at Uline Arena. Bobby might just as well have stayed there so far as most of the fans were concerned, for it was one of the few punches he threw all night. The bout ended in an unsat isfactory draw. -Star staflr Photo . Fight (Continued From Page C-l.) fair. Certainly, there will be no demand for a rematch, and any post-mortems today are in re gard to the decision, not the fight. Dykes spent his time pushing, clinching and holding onto the ropes. He’s a tall, awk ward fighter, who retreats with his left stuck out. Mims got hit with that left plenty because he made what fight there was, always going forward and trying to get inside. He’d catch that left, whack Dykes a time or two, and Dykes would clinch and two-step Mims back to the ropes and lean on. That went on all night, and the customers got tired of it and ex pressed themselves accordingly. Mims Had to Lead. Dykes was smarter than Mims in that he let Mims do the lead ing. But if Mims didn’t lead, j there would have been no fight at all—just two men standing there and glaring at each other. Although no artistic success, the fight did all right financially. Promoted by Goldie Ahearn for the benefit of the building funds of the Sts. Constantine and ! Helen and St. Sophia Greek | Orthodox Churches, it drew 2,601 S customers, best in Washington since March, 1953, for the Mims- Willie Troy fight. The gross gate was $10,133.90 and the net $8,425.94. The bout also was on Nation-wide television. Action in Prelims. Three knockouts were on the preliminary card. Harold Smith, brother of Gene, won over Bill Hill when Hill couldn’t come out for the third. Clarence Hin nant decked Rudy Watkins for i keeps in the third, and Tony Celano stopped Frank Sloane in the second. Actually Sloane knocked him self out, missmg a wild swing in midring and spinning around and through the ropes onto the ring apron. After he fell, he was unable to get up in time. He fell near the Boxing Commission row of seats and gave Dr. Joe Trigg, a member of the com mission, fe cleaning bill by knocking over a soft drink onto Dr. Trigg’s trousers.. In another prelim, John Shields won a split decision over Kid Saucer in six, and in a four rounder after t,he main event Ronnie Rhodes and Bibby Mill ner fought to a draw.

Bullpen Holds Giants' Hopes Durocher Challenges Anyone To Match Wilhelm, Grissom By the Associated Press f NEW YORK, July I.—Man ager Leo Durocher of the Giants today called his brilliant bullpen duo of Hoyt Wilhelm and Marv Grissom the best in baseball and challenged anybody to refute his statement. “Show me another relief ! pitcher as good as either Wil helm or Grissom,” Durocher de manded, “let alone a pair as good as this one. My two are the greatest, no doubt about it.” “I’ll let you in on a little secret,” Leo added. “If the Giants win the pennant this year, it will be won in the bullpen.” The 51,464 fans who watched Grissom win his eighth game of the season with a sharp four inning relief stint against Brook lyn Tuesday night, and the 29,693 spectators who saw Wil helm subdue the Dodgers again with a brilliant rescue job yes terday. could have no rebuttal. Wilhelm’s performance was one of his best of the season. He entered the scene in the eighth inning with runners on first and third and nobody out and the Giants holding a 2-1 lead. As if the situation wasn’t precarious enough, Jackie Robinson stood poised at the plate wielding his ever-dangerous bat. Waiting right behind him were Gil Hodges and Roy Campanella. •The 30-year-old knuckleball expert stood up to the situation, holding Robinson to a short fly to left that failed to advance the runners and getting Hodges to hit into a double play. The Cavarretta (Continued From Page C-l.) already retired by himself as a player. But Phil insisted that he could do well as a player coach. “I can play 50 or 75 games for sure,” Cavaretta said as he tried one club after another without success. Phil even talked about being a sl-a-year player. Finally the White Sox, having miserable luck with pinch-hitters, signed Cavarretta. Presumably he’s getting $6,000 a year, the major league minimum. This will be deducted from the salary the Cubs still have to pay him under a managerial contract. This was estimated at $35,000. Cavarretta is in marvelous physical condition. He still can cut a wicked caper around first base. Even on his "outs,” he has been laying the wood to the ball. Cavarretta shows no rancor about his discharge by the Cubs, who currently are mired in one of their worst slumps in years. “I can honestly say that I con sider Mr. Wrigley nson vs A1 Jacoby.
