Conference champion, while Brig-
ham Young, the skyline six titlist,
rated u aix-point edge over South
west Conference co-champion Bay-
lor. — ----- — —
The Braves appeared determined \5H

urday night. '

LAKELAND, Fla.. March 24—
(UP)—Red Rolfe isn’t talking pen-

day that he had only three worries
so far as his Detroit Tigers are
concerned.
In order, he listed them as Dick
Kryhoski, injuries and his infield
reserve strength.
"Well have to l»e better fhan
fair at both first base and in our
infield reserves if we are going
to finish on top," he said. “I’m
satisfied in my own mind that ex-

make them remember me as lang
as they have Bobby Jones. s
He's a big shot around here, and
not just because he wore knickers,

Joneses still holds the amateur
record over the G,882-yard "old
course”—a 68 fashioned in the
1927 open championship.
It would have been a shame to
shatter such a legend, although a
lot of people give it a whirl, what
with a round costing only three
shilling, or 42 cents American. So
instead, Old Fearless took a roun-
about tour of such fabled spots as
P rilcan Bum (three strokes), the

Valley of Sin (six putts).
This is to advite Bobby Jones
that his record still stands and he
still is the pride of St. Andrews.
