Sept. 13 UP) One of the strongest comebacks in the history of the National Amateur golf championship carried Dick Chapman into the final of the 1640 tournament today against Warrington Bannerman McCullough, of Philadelphia.

Chapman was five down to Wil-ford Wehrle of Chicago after the first nine holes of their 38-hole semifinal match. He was hooking and smothering drives Into traps and trouble, he was hitting sloppy second shots and his piittcr wasn't of any more use to him than six feet of garden hose. He was out in 42, six oyfr par. But he choked off what had all the earmarks of a frightful blowup right there. From the 10th to the 18th Wehrle didn't win a hole, and Chapman won six.

That put him one up. In the afternoon, before a gallery that swelled to some 3,500. Chapman kept to a steady par pace and came in the winner by three and two. After the morning round Wehrle was bewildered. By the time the match was over, he simply couldn't talk.

McCULLOUGH BEATS BILLOWS Tomorrow morning Chapman will tee off against McCullough, the man who accomplished what all ii is Roaenthal. rl aenthal. rf CHATTANOOGA, Sept. 13 Atlanta's loss to Memphis tonight threw a monkey wrench into the plans to open the final round of the Southern League's Shaugh-nessy playoff Sunday. "We'll probably open Tuesday night in Sulphur Dell," Larry Gilbert declared after the Vols had disposed of the Lookouts.

"I'm going to talk with Atlanta and Memphis officials Saturday morning before I leave here and try to straighten it out. There is a possibility that we may begin Monday night, provided Atlanta wins Sunday, but I expect they would want to wait until Tuesday." If the series opens in Sulphur Dell Tuesday night, the first two games will be played in Nashville. Then the battle scene will shift to either Atlanta or Memphis for games Thursday and Friday nights with the fifth contest on Sunday in one or the other of these cities. If more than five games are necessary, the final two will be in Nashville. The Vols are assured at least two days rest as the result ofiwalloping the Lookouts three in a row and they will be ready for the Crackers or Chicks Tuesday.
