SEPTEMBER 21, 1960 MattfirrT, (Kmifmtt With Malice Toward None Bob Friend Wins 17th With Ease Net Pros Plan Own Davis Cup Sports Editor By BILL LEE IN THE NATIONAL Amateur at Brookline three years ago, Owen Griffith and myself were keenly disappointed when Don Hoenig LONDON tS-Jack Kramer and his professional tennis stars Tuesday announced thier own version of the Cup a zonal com lost his second round match to a man of no particular reputation. Hoenig had beaten Joe Carr, the Irishman who had won. the British Amateur, the day before and when he was drawn against petition for professionals only.

Officially the new competition is to help the funds of the newly Beman kept getting pars formed Professional Tennis Play and, if I remember correctly, ers' Assn. But it aDpcared that Kramer, after skimming much of he threw in a birdie or two as well.

In any event, he was PHILADELPHIA '(UPD The front running Pittsburgh Pirates advanced a game closer to clinching the National League penant Tuesday night with a 7-1 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies in the opener of a twi-night doubleheader. Pittsburgh unloaded a 13 hit attack, which included Bill Vir-don's eighth home run of the season, against loser Robin Roberts (10-161 and his relievers, Chris Short and Dallas Green. Vrrdon had two other hits and a total of three runs batted in while Bill Mazeroski also had three hits for the winners. Bob Friend had an easy time in gaining his 17th victory against 11 defeats. He lost a shutout when rookie third baseman J.m Woods opened Philadelphia's eighth with a home run, his first in the majors.

Strikeout Records Friend allowed hits in picking up his fourth win in five decisions against the Phils. The was Roberts' fourth straight to Pittsburgh.

He suffered a sharp set back and, ultimately caught his man on the eighteenth to square the match. On the second extra hole, Beman won the match.

The name meant little to us last July when the International Tennis Federation threw out a plan for open tournaments. It seemed all but settled that his professionals would be playing at YALE Wimbledon and other big intern: tional events next year, alongside amateur stars. at the time. We checked, of course, and found out the nervy little guy was no lucky chopper but had built up considerable reputation in Washington and Baltimore tournaments.

He won the British Amateur in 1939 and last week added the United States Amateur to his conquests. BEMAN BELONGS WITH THE ELITE Now there is not the slightest doubt concerning the stature of Deane Beman in competitive amateur golf. Only a handful of great players have won both the British and United States amateur championships and in the last decade only Harvey Ward won championships on both sides of the Atlantic within a period of three years. Dick Chapman, for example, waited II years after winning the American title at Winged Foot before gaining his first British Amateur. Harvey Ward won the honors in Great Britain in 1952 before winning the U.

S. championship in 1955 and 1956. Willie Turnesa got the double a year apart, winning the British in 1947 and the American a vcar later.

Certainly Gene Littler, Arnold Palmer, Charles Coe. Harvey Ward, Jack Nicklaus and Deane Beman compare favorably with any. of the fine amateur champions of earlier years. Players like Chick Evans, Francis Ouimet, Bob Jones and Lawson Little do not come along every four years or anything like that, but the amateur champions of recent time are certainly as good as those who held the title in the last 25 years. Arnold Palmer won the United States Amateur in 1954 and promptly turned pro.

Now he is just about the best golfer in the world. Gene Littler won it the year before Palmer did and now is one of the big money winners of the tour. Gene would have lost his amateur standing at Las Vegas even if he hadn't won a quarter anywhere else. Sammy Urzetta and Billy Maxwell arc other National Amateur champions who quickly turned to the game as a means of earning a livelihood. Perhaps Deane Beman will remain an amateur a while, long with Jack Nicklaus.

These boys could undoubtedly do well on the tour in time, but they must both realize that the professional woods are full of so many consistently low scoring players that it takes a touch of genius to make a decent living.
