Cary Middlecoff-and aL return to active duty in the Army appears Imminent--the Memphis dentist has broken a long jinx. Through four years of campaigning 011 California links Middlecoff could not snag a win in A golf tournament in the Golden State. He erased all that yesterday by copping the $2,000 first prize in the $10,000 Lakewood Park Invitational with a brilliant 13-under-par 271 for the 72 holes. The lanky cavity-filler from the hills of Tennessee yesterday fired his fourth straight, sub-par round--a 68 while young Julius Boros and veteran Lloyd Mangrum of Chicago were falling by the wayside.

entered the finale in a three-way tie for first place. Mangrum had a dismal four-overpar 75 to tie for 15th place and receive $131.66 for his four-day effort.

He was rewarded with a second place check of $1,400. Three veterans and a young bridegroom from St. Petersburg, Fla.Dick Mayer--each received $775 for finishing in a four-way tie for third with 275. The others were Jimmy Clark, Laguna Beach, Jimmy Thomson, New York City, and Henry Ransom, St. Andrews, Ill.
