I Al Besselink survived a triple bogey seven on the 17th hole Monday to finish with 75 for a 282 total and win the $20,000 Azalea Open Golf Tournament by one stroke. The husky, curly-haired blond from Merchantville, NJ, back on the circuit after a three-year layoff, battled high winds and 40- degree weather to win his first tour event in almost seven years on rounds of 70-65-72-75. He was six-under- par for 72 holes. Hebert Second The victory was worth $2,700 to get along with $1,400 in bonus awards he won Saturday and Sunday. Lionel Hebert finished second with 73 for to win $1,800, Tommy Jacobs, play ing in the last threesome with Besselink and Hebert, shot 74 for third place, at 284, to win $1,500.

A bone-chilling cold front swept into Wilmington at Roseboro Drills With Trojans; Knee Improves Johnny Roseboro, the Dodgers' first-string catcher now in Los Angeles under going treatment tor a trou-i blesome right knee, should be ready lor the National League opener here April 14 against the St. Louis Car dinals. Roseboro Is responding to treatment and there is no reason he won't be availa ble," club physician Dr. Robert Kerlan said Monday. Roseboro has been work ing out the past several days with the USC varsity at Bo-vard Field.

He returned from Florida last Wednesday for treat ment of a condition Dr. Ker lan described as "water on the knee, inflammation, and evidence of calcification of the tendon above the joint" CASEY ON DUKE: 'He's Poppin' Ball and Has Good Mitt-So Why Get Rid of would like to play at least two more years, then remain ports 'l Still fresh in the minds of most old-time fans, it ended some 30 1 years ago or more, is the "Golden Age" of sports, when Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, Bobby Jones, Helen Wills, Johnny Weissmuller, Walter Ha-' gen, Bill Tilden and the like lived in the headlines and in the hearts of their followers. Probably, there'll never be another era quite like 'it On a smaller scale, though, there's a "Golden Age" going on right now, without any great hullaba- -Moo. What's more, it's right here in the Southland! Items: The 1962 USC football team was undefeated, gained national champion- 8 i recognition and capped that big season with still another victory In the Rose BowL Historic Sweep The 1963 Los Angeles Dodgers captured the National League pennant, then achieved the "impossible" by taking four 'straight from the New York Yankees in the World Series. The 1964 UCLA basketball team compiled a per-Mect season record of 30 and sewed up the national championship with the last one.

In 1963, USC bagged national titles in baseball, track, tennis and swim-. And the swimmers have just repeated.

Two or three pitchers may be sliced today. Two of those sent to No. 1 farm club, Hawaii, ac tually were on the minor league roster.

They are out fielder Bob Perry and utility man Bob SadowskL Both have been drilling with the varsity since early February. Hawaii manager Bob Lem on gets two young prospects in pitcher Jim McGlothlin and first baseman Charlie Vinson. Reseda Prepiter A product of Reseda High, 20-year-old McGlothlin is re garded as one of brightest mound prospects. He posted a 13-5 record at Quad Cities two years ago. Vinson Is in his second year of pro ball and is rated one of the best glove men ever to don an Angel unie.

Just turned 20, Charlie was an all-around prep star at Washington, D.u, before the Yankees signed him. The Angels drafted him last winter. The other two kids sent to, the minors are outfielders Jay Johnstone and Vic Anto-netty. They report for the farm camp at Anaheim for assignment to one of LAs five teams in lower classification. Squad Down to SO The cut reduced the var sity squad to 30 roster play ers.

In addition, there are three non-roster men still with the club. They are out bidder Jim Piersall, utility player Frank Kostro and catcher Hank Foiles. When the season opens at Washington, D.C, one week rora next Monday, the squad must number only 28 players, so five more must be cut by then. Manager Biu Rigney Inti mated Monday that two or three pitchers may be dropped today. He has 18 flingers and doesn't intend to carry more than 13 to begin with.

Borderline cases are southpaws Danny Rivas and Mel Nelson, plus Ed Thomas, Bob Lee, Bob Du- liba and Paul Foytack. Eight Newcomers As a result of Monday's cut there are only eight; players on the squad who were not varsity members ast season. They are Joe Adcock, Bobby Knoop, Dick Simpson, Barry Latman and Kelso, Bob Lee, Rivas and Ed Thomas. The varsity plays Hawaii at Indio today and then makes it's last Invasion of Arizona Wednesday. General manager Fred Haney finally heard from Felix Torres Monday.

He has accepted terms and is en route to join the Hawaii club, to which the Angels as signed him last winter. If anything goes wrong at third base with the varsity, Torres can be brought up to help solve the problem. He was u-A-s regular third base man the last two years. Bauer Mad, Calls His Batters 'Dumb' MIAMI (UPI) Manager Hank Bauer, disgusted at the Baltimore Orioles' weak attack this spring, Monday called his hitters "dumb and threatened to force all of them to take one strike before being allowed to swing. The latest In a procession of weak hitting exhibitions came Sunday when the Orioles managed only four hits off a quartet of Houston Colts pitchers, none of whom were in the major leagues last season, and eked out a 2- 1 victory.

He succeeded admirably through nine holes, parring each hole on the front nine of the Cape Fear Country Club course.

That gave him a four-shot lead on the field. He knocked in a 12-foot putt for a birdie on 10, but missed the green on 11 for a bogey. After three pars, ha birdiedthe500-yd.

And who knows? The hockeying Blades may yet transform an ordinary season into a triumphant one by capturing playoff honors. And the Rams may be on the verge of returning to the high place they formerly occupied in pro football. In keeping with this sectional "Golden Age," track kibitzers will get to see both the United States-Russia dual meet and the final U.S. Olympic trials this summer. And the Dodgers may very well reward their backers with another flag and more Series play here.

Odd Number With an uneven number; of clubs training in Florid the Oriole official said, means one club is left without an opponent every day. We didn't want to be left without a game on Sunday, so we asked Houston to send a squad to Miami.

"I havent sny complaint against the Colts, but I thought they would send one or two of their name players like Nellie Fox, Pete Run nels or Eddie Kasko. "The squad they sent Just couldn't be called major league and I didn't think it was fair to expect people to pay to see that kind of game."

Fla. -H Trade rumors involving: Duke Snider have been buz zing around like a swarm of bees this spring, but Casey Stengel says he ain't so sure he wants to let the Dooker get away. "Snider's really been pop- pnv that Dan even thoueh already loses five days of practice when he has to go home," said the grizzled Mets leader Monday before his team lost a 7-6 decision to the Dodgers in 12 innings.

Nate Oliver's single, steal and blooD double by Wil- ie Davis decided the issue before 3,053 frigid fans. Praise for Snider "Duke already has hit me a home run, which we only got seven all spring, and look it up and you'll see he hit tin' around 235," Casey con-i ttoued. "I also got him in left field regular because George Alt man dont know any position but right, and Duke is doln OK there too. He's got the good mitt Balls stick in it. bnider, trim and sharp al though 37 years old and more gray than Stengel, says he's heard a lot of trade rumors, but he doesn't keep his bags packed waiting for the word.

"Last week I learned that the Cardinals were interest ed in me, but I guess noth ing came of it," Snider said. "Then there was a 6tory that I was going with the Giants. Earlier, I thought I was going to Detroit I'd like to play for Chuck Dressen, and that would be a good park for me to hit in, but George Weiss wanted Dressen'i pet rookie, Willie Horton, In the trade. They're not going to trade a promising kid like Horton for me even up." Duke hit 14 homers for Casey last season, giving him a career total of 403. third highest among active Na-l tional Leaguers.

Eddie Mathews has 422. Willie Mays 408. Moreover, Duke ran ms runs-batted-in total to 1,316, unsurpassed among NL actives.
