Two Horses. 146 Witnesses To

THE GUARDIAN. CHARLOTTETOWN

Appear llcourl

LONDON. (AP)-Two horses and! 146 witnesses are ready to give: evidence today in Britain's famed Old Bailey Court.

The horses are Santa Amaro and Francasal and the question, "which of them won the 2 olclock race at Bath July 18?” is one of the big questions the court must decide.

Government prosecutors say Francasal was switched for Santa Amaro. a much faster and better- rated horse. The winner, still un- der the name Francasal, returned I0-1 odds.

Just before the race the tele- phone llne from the Bath course was cut. That meant big off-course bets had no effect in the winner's long starting price.

Five men are accused switching case.

The two horses are expected to be brought from stables at Epsom and kept in garages behind the Old Bailey so that Justice Sellers and jurymen can go out, look them over and note their simil-

arity.

NEW YORK, (AP)-The gallery of some 10,000 fans pressing closely around the final hole of the Tam 0'shanter world golf toiirnamelntin Chicago lost Aug. 9 conceded the 525,000 first prize to Chandler Har- per.

The 39-year-old veteran from Portsmouth, Va., had just pitched a No. 9 iron shot 2!) inches from the cup for a cinch bllrdle 3 to flu- ish with a 70 for a '72-hole total or 279, nine under par.

Television and ne'wsreel cameras were trained on Harper. radio com- mentators were praising his game. as the crowd cheered.

Then, in one of the most dramatic and fantastic endings in golf his-

hind Harper was Lew Worsham. 1947 U. S. Open champion from Oakmont. Pa.

Worsharm, first-round leaded with n 05, had just dropped a seven- foot putt for a birdie 3 on the "list hole and needed another birdie 3 on the 410-yard 72nd to tie I-in-spar

Lew sluninicrl a terrific drive that left him about 140 yards short of the pin. As the crowd swarmed around, Wordham drew out I sand wedge looked at the hole ahead. then fired away. The ball hit on the lower part of the green. bounced about three times and rolled 35 to 40 feet before drotppng

The amazing shot gave Wormam a one-strcke victory. and worth 315.000 - the difference between first money of s2.'i.0Ofl and the s10.- 000 second prize. Tho H0 - yard poke boosted Worsham from Zflth to first place on the PGA money winning list.

This bit of mart: drama was voted the thrill of 195.”! in the 23rd annual Associated Press year-and poll. With a total of 115 of the nation's sports writers and sports- casters balloting. 34 voted this the No. 1 thrill, with 141 points on a 3-2-1 basis.

Another golf tent was named the second greatest thrill--Ben Hogan winning the British Open chum- pinnship on his first try, with s rc- cord final round 65 at Carnoustle, Scotland, Hogan's British Open win received 20 first place votes and a lohl of 86 points.
