(A.P.). Cary Middlecoff, the lanky doctor who cured the jumpiest nerves in golf, won his second National Open championship yesterday with a score of 281 as the closing bids of Ben Hogan, Julius Boros and Ted Kroll died dramatic deaths. The 35-year-old Memphis dentist, once so fidgety his clubs would freeze on the backward swing, crushed Australia's Peter Thomson, the halfway leader, in a bitter head-to-head duel and then sat back to sweat out the challenges of the great Hogan and two other old pros.

Yesterday he started off wildly missing eight fairways and hitting into four traps during the morning round, but great recovering kept him at even par. In the afternoon, it appeared he might fold when he took bogeys on two of the three finishing holes but he nailed a beautiful rounds of even par 70 over the Oak Hill Country Club course to win by a stroke over Hogan, bidding primly for his fifth Open championship, and the bull-like Boros, national champion in '52. Each had 282. Hogan'g bid was broken on the next to last hole the 71st where he missed a four-foot putt a raritv for the great Texas champion and Boros' chance died on the 72nd where bold 15-foot birdie piftt lipped the cup and swerved around.
