DETROIT FREE PRESS Tuesday. July 26. 1955 25 TODAY'S THE DAY Boone Key To Tiger PARKER'S IMPRESSION OF ROOKIES Bigger and Better Than Ever Flat Rock Speedway Tuesday Night at 8:30 One Night Only Middlecoff, Ford In PGA Shoivdown convinced there might be some bright spots in 1955 after alL Parker ran a squad of 28 rookies and four players who had previo is pro experience through training camp at Michigan Normal College. At the lunch-time break, Parker singled cut several of the rookies for comment. Inchided an hour drill to open the Lions' ww tj.ni i 1 1 in were two returning servicemea and a local product.

STAN CAMPBELL, who demonstrated he could play guard two years ago, reported in excellent condition and about 15 pounds heavier than his playing weight when last with the club. While in service Campbell managed to squeeze in some football, playing with an Army team in Germany. There seems little doubt that the defensive specialist will figure somewhere in the Lions' plans. Jim Roshto, a hard hitting defensive halfback, also returned from Army duty in Japan and Korea heavier but definitely not out of shape. If Roshto can come up to expectations on the defensive platoon, there's a possibility that Bill Stits, a regular defensive i si 'M I I I Li -i I 2 I I i I ----I, If I ri a tl I A' 'W sea Y'J' pfcl HimiltfllllfiiHllimilMnflili Mmm-in vmmtnmi i squared it.

Doc finally eagled the 17th with a. 25-foot putt for his fifth lead and this time never lost it. Middlecoff got the putting range in the afternoon and holed 20-footers for birdies at the third and fifth, a nine-footer at the ninth and a four-foofer at the 10th. Bolt couldn't drop anything of size and those four putts became the difference. Bolt was aiming for his fourth straight upset of a name performer, having earlier decked Sam Snead, Jack Fleck and Lew Worsham.

Tired and with a splitting headache, he couldn't add the Doc, who had advanced with earlier conquests over Wally Bill Nary, Mike Pavella and, in Sunday's 40-hole marathon, Jackie Burke.

Middlecoff also ended his match there but with no such drama. Bolt had a 15-foot putt to keep the match alive and sent it sliding along the edge.

Without a single display of temper, Thunder slowly walked over and sadly extended a congratulating hand. This happened about two hours later, Middlecoff and Bolt having indulged in such a daw dling, cautious endeavor that they were a full nine holes behind the Ford-Mayfield twosome. MIDDLECOFF, who spends forever getting ready to shoot, and Bolt, who meanders almost aimlessly along the fairways, spent four hours on the course for their morning session. When it was done, Middlecoff had played a par-71, still good enough for a one-hole lead over Bolt's 73. Four times Middlecoff went 1-up and four times Bolt Gifts SPRINGFIELD, Mass.

OUSEHOLD CHICK CHATS BY BOB LATSHAW Fre Pr.i Staff Writer YPSILANTI The Detroit ZJons football season was only one-hour old Monday morning when Coach Buddy Parker wast Gray Makes 4th More, To Orioles BALTIMORE, Md.

(U.R Ted Gray, the 30-year-old lefthander who has pitched a total of 11 Innings for three other American League clubs this season was signed Monday by the Baltimore Orioles. To make room for the latest addition to their rapidly changing roster, the Orioles asked for waivers on Infielder Eddie Wait-kus. Gray pitched three innings for the Chicago White Sox early this season and then moved to the Cleveland Indians. HE PITCHED five inning3 for Cleveland, was released and picked up by the New York Yan kees. He was turned loose by the Yankees July 19 after pitching three innings for them.

Gray is a veteran of eight major league campaigns. He was with the Detroit Tigers from 1946 through 1954 but has been troubled by a sore arm since 1953. He compiled his best won- lost record in 1950 (10-7).

I sirmirQ? UuuXy Ability on Greens Puts Ford in Final (Chick Harbert, 1954 champion and host pro at Meadow-brook Country Club, is writing a special story daily for the Free Press during the 1955 National PGA championship.) BY CHICK HARBEKT Doug Ford's move in this tournament has been almost identical to his role in golf for the last three years. Resurgence Big Bat Finally Clicks for Hits BY HAL MIDDLESWORTH Free Free Staff Writer BUFFALO Ray Boone has reached the charmed .300 batting circle only once in his major league career and the Tigers' veteran slugger isn't apt to forget it. He made the grade on the last day of the 1950 season and Boone isn't ashamed to admit that it was the happiest day of his life. Now, however, the handsome third-sacker with the heavy bat is in an excellent position for a repeat performance. HE'S AS EAGER as a 20-year-old rookie to make it.

As the Tigers headed East to open an 18-day tour with a twi-night doubleheader at Balti more Tuesday, Boone had become the key figure in an offense Manager Bucky Harris hopes will put the Bengals back into the mtxed-up American League pennant race. Without discounting Al Kaline's league-leading .365 average or taking anything away from Harvey Kuenn with his -328 figure for second place, the sensational rise of Boone has been the really important development of the Tigers' recent surge. SINCE JUNE 1, he has hit safely in 35 out of 39 games, including a 15-game streak which was broken Sunday. His average soared from .225 to .292 bringing him from nowhere to 10th in the list of American League leaders. He has batted in 70 runs, third in the league, and he has clouted 16 home runs, eight of them since July 1.

Obviously, Boone is a "hot weather" hitter. "AND THAT'S something to be thankful for," says his manager, "when you see all the spring sluggers who melt away in the 'heat Boone doesn't know what has happened to cause his blazing resurgence at the plate. "All I know is that I feel good right now no aches and pains," he laughed. guess I'm swing ing right or something. THE TIGERS sharpened up for their 19-game road trip here Monday night with a 12-3 triumph over their Class AAA farm club, 'the Buffalo Bisons, before 5,197 fans in Offerman Stadium.

The game was called midway in the eighth inning to permit both teams to catch trains. The Bengals picked on De-troiter Ron Rozman, former Catholic High School star, for 15 hits and 10 runs in the first five innings. Harvey Kuenn hit the first pitch of the game over the left-field fence. In the second frame Al Kaline belted a two-run homer. Harry Malmberg, reserve infielder, poled out a grand slam in the third.

PAUL, FOYTACK set the Bisons down with three hits and one run in the first four and two-third innings. After Foy-tack was hit on the leg by a line drive he was replaced by Paul (Dizzy) Trout. Trout yielded four hits, one a two-run homer by Tom Yewcic, former All-American quarterback from Michigan State University. DETROIT Buffalo 224 020 02 12 19 0 010 003 OX 3 7 0 FOVTK.

of D. star, impressed Defensive Coach Buster Ramsey with his quick reflexes and co-ordination. Riley will concentrate on the de fensive platoon, at least until the veterans arrive next week. Parker also disclosed that Dick Stanfel, the big offensive guard, was coming into camp Tuesday to work out and get in shape slowly. Stanfel underwent surgery on his knee last winter and reports that it is completely OK now.

In Monday morning's physical examinations, Harry Gilmer the veteran signal caller recently obtained from Washington, passed a close examin ation on his long-ailing knee. Gilmer seemed happy at being traded to the Lions after serving five seasons with the Redskins. All told there were three quar terbacks in camp, with Gilmer, Paul Held, returned from Pitts burgh where he played last year, and Duncan McDonald, the for mer University of Michigan quar terback. They will be joined by Bobby Layne next week. THERE WAS only one AWOL player.

George Galuska, the Wy oming fullback, hasn't been heard from since signing his contract. Parker will limit the week's work to fundamentals, giving the rookies a chance to absorb basic oriensive and defensive formations. There is a chance that some contact work will be held late in the week. After the hour-long drill in the morning the squad returned for 90 minutes more work in the afternoon. The two-a-day drills will continue until the start of exhibition games.

Tuesday morning Parker's annual search for a kickoff man will begin. "We'll give everybody a chance," Parker declared. "We'll work on it every day. You have to have a kickoff man, you know."

Poirier, scaling 147 pounds, the same as Perez, had Danny groggy in the fourth, sixth, eighth, and ninth rounds. PEREZ WAS the more clever boxer Monday night, but he lacked the authority that Gene had. Only in the seventh round did Perez threaten Gene. Then he hurt him with a persistent body attack. The three ring officials favor ed Poirier on a rounds basis with a unison 6-4 vote.

The officials were Referee Barney Felex, and Judges Bert Grant and Bill Recht.

Here at Meadowbrook, despite being medalist and the best scoring player since the start, he has moved along steadily and solidly without people getting overly excited about his chances. MAYBE THIS one reason for for his success. I know that it is a lot easier to wage a successful campaign in a long tourna ment of this type when attention continues to focus on others. Doug's putting has drawn most of the comment, which isn't unexpected. His putting and short game, for consistency, probably has been the best on the circuit for about three years.

It always is good, and some times gets into a prolonged hot streak like we've seen here. IT GOES without saying that he also is an excellent reader of greens. No one else is able to stay in a hot putting streak here. So if Ford is putting best, he obviously also is reading the greens the best. His golf swing is somewhat unorthodox.

He uses a flat swing, faster than the ordinary and with a little flip or looseness at the top. He also has a hook tendency which is not at all in line with the modern fade trend. He is what we call a "working-man golfer." He never carries his problems away from the golf course, is not a worrier or brooder. This gives him the psychological advantage of not beating himself in mental preparation. IN REACHING the finals, Ford is in position to gain permanent recognition as a golfer by winning a national title.

For a man brought up in golf his father is a pro this holds far more luster than most people realize. Doug is the type to apply maximum effort when facing such an opportunity.
