Golfer Aims At Being 15th, Finds That He Ends Up First

ay sacs SULLIVAN Canadian Press staff Writer

TORONTO (CF) m Al Balding lug his own pet theory about golf and ii is suddenly paying off. The Toronto shotmaker says its simple: start a tournament with the idea of finishing from 15 to 20th and zingo, you'll invariably and up with money in your pocket.

Balding isn't becoming rich by knocking a golf ball around in the big-time U.S. pro circuit. but he's making more money than ever before simply by using his new- iound method.

Writing in the monthly Profes- sional Golf magazine. bible of the U3. Professional Golfers Associ- atlon. Balding said in the Febru- ary issue:

"When I first went on the tour tthree years ago) I kept shooting for the top spots among the fin- ishers and found out I was nothing but a bundle of nerves trying to display a superior brand of golf which was not in me at the time.

"i decided before going into a tournament to try to finish from 15th to mth and schooled myself mentally to the idea of specifically aiming for that spot. Almost like magic. I found myself making the great golf shots which had previ- ously eluded me."

The ink was hardly dry on the issue when the 33-year-old com- parative newcomer on the trail started a gradual climb in the money winners' circle. in March alone he picked IIP 32.500 to bring his 1957 earnings to 34.222. His

biggest chunk - 81.200 - was earned in winning the 87,500 Miami Beach open March 24 over a field that included such estab- lished pros as Chick Harbert, Dick Mayer. Vie Gheui. Walter Burkemo. Lloyd Msngrum. Julius Boros and Law Worsham.

In 1956, 1Baldlng's total earnings were 33,010.

ROCK!-2Y'S EVOLUTION

With the Stanley Cup series in full swing. it might be worth not lng that Montreal Canadlens once changed hands for 311.000. It hap- pened in 1921 when Leo Dandur- and and the late Joe Cattarinlch bought the club from the estate of George Kennedy.

Fourteen years later Dandurand and Cattarinlch sold out to Ernest Savard for a reported 5200.000. To- day. the Canadians. or any Na- tional Hockey League club. is a million-dollar enterprise.

Scotty (Regina Leader - Post) Melville takes note of the publi- oily given the United States an- preme court ruling that the Na- tional Football League was subject to anti-trust laws and says that baseball and hockey are in the same boat.

"Pro sports are much like the armed services." Melville says. "You sign on. get paid, do what you are told and go where the brass wants you to go. it pro sports are to run into the anti- trust law at every turn. soon there will be no organization of that nature."

250,000 Fans See Cambridge Defeat Oxford In Boat Race

By KEN METHEIIAL Canadian Press staff Writer

LONDON (C?) - A smooth- worklng Cambridge crew. strok- ing in traditional British style. rowed to an easy victory over favored Oxford Saturday in the mm university boat race.

Oxford fell behind when the team's No. 5. Peter Barnard, col- lapsed at the three-mile mark. For the last mile Barnard could hardly pull his oar but he refused to give up, following boat race tradition.

More than 50.000 persons lined the N-mile course along the River Thames to watch the race in brilliant sunshine. They ex- pected to see the highly-publicized Oxford eight rout Cambridge. In- llead. they saw the light blues pull away to win by 2&5 lengths in the gnielling four-mile 374-yard ace.

.Saturdays' victory marked the third straight win for Cambridge and their 57th victory since the series started in 1829. Oxford has won 45 tunes and one ended in a dud heat.

150 CANADIAN! WATCH

About 150 graduates of Canadian universities watched the race aboard a chartered launch. lust- ily roaring encouragement to both crews as they swept past their position. The party included Syd- ney Pierce. Canadian deputy high commissioner in London. bis wife and daughter.

The hoisting if the light blue pennant at the starting line near Putney Bridge was a bitter blow to the game Oxford eight. who had trained incessantly since last fall for the race. it was a per- sonal defeat for Australian Rod Carnegie. presiden of the Oxford Boat Club. who had changed Ox- ford rowing tactics by adopting the upright, fast-stroking rowing style favored by Canadian and American crews.

TWO YANII IN WIN

Ironically. two Americans helped defeat the Oxford attempt to in- troduce the North American style- Robert Colby. a giaduate of Har- vard. brilliantly cosed the light

blues. while Jim Meadows, form-

arty of Yale, rowed No. I.
