I May Be Wrong By Dirk Becker Hunda Sport Columnist After watching the Cleveland Indians play San cisco in Omaha just before the start of the American League season, we could hardly get back fast enogh to write about how lousy the Indians were. This club, we predicted, would be lucky to finish the season. Therefore, it should come as no great shock to find the Indians riding merrily along atop the XL Not being a particular Yankee fan, 1 rather enjoy watching the plight of Casey Stengel and his crew, hut I still maintain that leveland is not a good ball elub. You build a winner around Woody Held, George Strickland, Billy Martin and Jim Piersall. I'm afraid that when they pass out the World Series checks, the Yankees will be first in line again.

Mine in kaiiHitH Citv The Chicago Cubs have found their own vein of gold by tapping the Kansas City Monarchs. They bought Ernie Banks for around $20 000 from the Monarchs in what may have been the best buy ever made in baseball. Now they have George Altman, a big slugger who displayed his wares at Sherman Field last summer while playing for Pueblo. Altman was the rookie sensation of the Cub spring drills and won himself a berth with the Bruins although he had been ticketed for a year at Ft. Worth.

Now No. 3 and No. 4 hitters are former KC Monarchs and both of them look like they will be around for a long time. Good Slarl for Hookirw Two other rookies who are off to a good start are Willie Tasby of Baltimore and Bob Allison of Washington. Allison is better remembered as a fullback at the University of Kansas.

These rookie outfielders have much in common. Both are good fielders with strong arms and both made the jump to the big leagues on the strength of good years in the minors in 1958. Tasby hit .322 at Louisville and Allison 307 at Chattanooga.

It gave him a two stroke edge over Young Tommy Jacobs of Whittier, Calif. Jacobs started the 3rd round a 133 total and a I shot bulge Palmer. But lie slipped to a 38 on the front 9 to lose valuable ground and make up the deficit coming home. He wound up with a 35 for a 73 and a 206 total. Palmer, playing in a threesome with Jacobs and Oklahoma amateur champion Glen Fowler of Oklahoma City, turned on the heat on the back side with a 32.

His card showed an eagle and 4 birdies on the home" 9, but he also had two bogies which spoiled an otherwise brilliant performance. Palmer ran in a 15-foot putt for a birdie on 10, sank a 5 footer for anoter birdie on the 12th and then rammed home a 20-footer for his eagle on the 505-yard par 13th. Another 10 footer dropped for a birdie on the 15th and 12-footer found its mark on the 17th. His bogies came on the par 3 14th where he caught a trap and the par 4 18th where he twice went into the rough. The field was bunched fairly evenly as it headed into 4th and payoff- round.

Close on the heels of Palmer and Jacobs were Bob of Crystal Hiver, land Don Fairfield of Casey, 111., with 208 totals. Fairfield was two under par Saturday at 70 while Goal- i by had to be satisfied with a 71. Fowler, who gave up a professional career to become an insurance salesman, kept a home town gallery of some 5,000 persons on edge through- out the tense 18 hole struggle. iHis fine 72 which left him at 210 and an outside chance for top honors. Fowler picked up ground on the first 9 with a two- under-par 34 but the strain told on the back 9 where he needed 38 shots.

But the young amateur had the honor of making the longest 50 footer for a birdie on the 9th. Best score of the day was manufactured by Wesley Ellis the Texas Open cham- ion from Aldecress, N.J. He shot a for a 54 hole total of 217. Palmer, Ligonier. Pa 73-64 Jacobs, Whittier, Crystal airfield.
