Boros Predicted 'Open'
Victory At Halfway Spot
NEWS
By ED FITE
I DALLAS, June 16 ilfi—By now
nearly every golf fan knows that
burly Julius Boros of New Eng-
land via Mid-Pines, N. C., is the
new U. S. Open golf champion, but
few know that the 32-year-old ex-
account expected to win it and
even predicted he would do it.
Last Friday night at the end of
the first two rounds of the Open
at Northwood Club, Boros told his
brother, Ernest — who is also a
professional golfer — that he was
going to win the big one.
At that time, Julius (The Moose i
Boros was in fourth place, four
strokes behind the mechanical man
and defending champion, Ben Ho-
gan.
Saturday morning, as the sun
started mounting toward the peak
when it was to pour 98-degree heat
onto a Northwood gallery of 15,00(1,
Julius told Ernest:
It Was His Day
“I've got two rounds in toy sys-
tem and today's the day. I'm going
to win this one."
Witli two one-over-par rounds of
71 already on his record, the
fledgling pro put on one uf the
greatest displays ol pressurized
golf in the 52-year history of the
Open.
lie calmly went out in the morn
ing to shoot a two-under-par 08 de-
spite a double bogey to pick up six
strokes on the faltering Hogan and
take over the lead by two strokes.
In the afternoon, with practical-
ly everyone waiting for the pres-
sure to make him “choke up” and
blow his uncomfortable lead, the
deliberate Connecticut Yankee
again survived a double-bogey to
post a 71 and give him a 281 total
that eventually was to be four
strokes less than his nearest chal-
lenger, Ed i Porky i Oliver of Le-
mont, 111.
Not Perfect Golf
Boros wasn't playing perfect
golf by any means. He hit some
bad drives and enough errant sec-
ond shots to wind uo in the traps
which guarded Northwuod's tricky
greens on several occasions.
But adversity only seemed to
make Boros stronger. He called up-
on a trusty wedge time and again
to pull him out of trouble and
never cracked under the strain.
Both Boros and Oliver spoiled
Hogan's bid to become the first
man in history to win four straight
Open titles Hogan's age, 39, his
weakened stamina as a result of a
1949 auto accident, and the blaz-
ing heat, all took their toll of the
little Texan. He finished with a
28(i, a stroke back of Oliver, one
ahead of Johnny Bulla of Verona,
I’a., and four ahead of George Fa-
zio of Clementon, N. J

Since the inception of the King's
Envoys Male Quartet of Pacific
Bible College several years ago.
the foursome has been one of Hit-
most "called for” groups at the
college. Each succeeding year,
their inspiration and interest
coupled with their specialized pre-
sentation of gospel music and in-
teresting testimonies, have made
them favorites in many cities
throughout the nation.
Featured in many radio and tel-
evision broadcasts and appear-
ances, the King’s Envoys present a
program of negro spirituals, gospel
songs, and other sacred selections.
Their latest phonograph records in-
clude some of their best from each

uaily include a few "Western
Style” gospel songs in their pro-
grams as well.

Congressman Bob Poage and na-
tional REA officials are expected
lo attend the hearing of farmers

has set up plans to serve parts of
Taylor and Nolan counties not serv-

It is reported that Southwestern
Hell claims it has long range plans

cussed trying to enter the REA
proposed system, has not been
counted in it in planning thus far,

ter would be given consideration
should it be brought up.

To many owners, the mighty 180 H.P. V-8
engine that powers the Chrysler New
Yorker is the most remarkable feature of
this remarkable car. It is certainly the most
discussed automobile engine in many,
many years.
This is the engine with hemispherical
combustion chambers . : . the engine that
gets more power out of every drop of gas.
And non-premium gas at that!
Actually, it puts you in control of more
power than you’ll probably ever need use.
You’ll sense this . . . together with its
unequaled response ... the very first yards
you drive. It runs smoother, more quietly,
anu with less wear than any otnei engine
ever built into an American automobile.
f : : . and it makes driving (both cruising
and the short runs’) more fun than you have
ever known it to he!
But that’s not all. Along with this engine
there are scores of other reasons, too, for
iriving a New Yorker before resolving on
any new car. Like Full-time Power Steer-
ing that makes steering /ire times easier . . .
and your control //te times greater . . . than
in ordinary cars. Like Power Brakes that
cut needed pedal pressure by as much
as two-thirds.
Like Onflow shock absorbers that make
even had roads feel “newly paved" . . ;
restful chair-high seats . . . big, wide-
opening doors :j ; big windows that let
you see more.
*
It's true : : : until you drive a Chrysler
New Yorker you won’t know what you’re
missing. Why not stop in today?
