40 Women Start
Dallas Tourney
By The Associated Press
DALLAS — Louise Suggs, the
smooth swinger from Sea Island,
Ga,, was the one to beat as usual
as a field of more than 40 pros
and amateurs prepared to tee off
in the $10,000 Dallas Civitan Wo
men’s Open Golf Tournament.
The 72-hole tournament starts
today and runs through Sunday.
Miss Suggs leads the money
winners with $5,000 including first
money from the Sarasota and Sea
Island Tournaments, while just
1300 back is long-hitting Mickey
Wright, who also has won two
tournaments—Miami and St. Pet
ersburg. Miss Wright leads in
stroke average with 72.9 while
Miss Suggs is second with 73.2.
Miss Suggs also has won top
money in a couple of tournaments
that don’t count in the official list
—the 36-hole Naples, Fla., tourney
and the three-par at Palm Beach,
Fla., where she beat some of the
top men players.
Together Misses Suggs and
Wright have won all the tourna
ments on the year’s tour. They
also have something of a monopoly
on the Dallas tournament. Miss
Wright was champion in 1958, Miss
Suggs in 1959 and 1960.
Barbara Romack, Marlene Hag-
ge, Betsy Rawls, Ruth Jessen, Bet
ty Jameson, Kathy Cornelius, Bon
nie Randolph, Murle MacKenzie
and others of the regulars and a
flock of newcomers make up the
pro contingent.
Leading the amateurs is blonde
Joanne Gunderson, of Seattle, the
women’s national amateur and na
tional collegiate champion, who is
considered a strong threat.
INTRAMURALS
Intramural sports were active
yesterday as there were 11 .games
played in four leagues.
In Class B Softball, Sq. 17 hit
the winning trail as they downed
F-l, 8-6, and B-2 won an easy
victory over Sq. 16 by forfeit.
In the only game played in Class
A Softball, F-2 won over Sq. 16
hy forfeit.
In the three matches in Class A
Rifle, Sq. 14 slipped past G-l by
the score of 382-348; E-l won over
1-2 by forfeit; and Sq. 9 got a
victory as H-2 did not show up.
In Class B Tennis, Sq. 11 edged
past D-2 for a 2-1 victory; E-l
halted B-l to win, 2-1; H-l stymied
Sq. 12, 2-1; Sq. 7 squeezed past
A-2, 2-1; and Sq. 2 defeated the
troops from G-2 for a 2-1 win.

Snead Seeks
Seventh Win
At Greensboro
By The Associated Press
GREENSBORO, N.C.—The
Greater Greensboro Open Golf
Tournament, Sam Snead’s annual
spring tonic, opens its 22nd edi
tion Thursday.
A field of about 140 is entered,
with the professionals chasing a
$22,500 jackpot over the four-day,
72-hole route.
Masters champion Gary Player
is passing the tournament in favor
of a rest from competition, but
the old master, Mr. Snead, is ready
to add another chapter to one of
the most amazing records in the
sport’s history.
The White Sulphur Springs, W.
Va., slammer, who’ll be 49 next
month, won the first GGO in 1938
and repeated last spring. All told
he has won seven of 21 previous
Greensboro tournaments for a
total take of $21,600. He missed
playing only one year.
In his last 12 appearances,
starting with 1949, he has won
five times, been second twice, once
in a four-man playoff and third
four times.
Sedgefield Country Club has
been lengthened, greens enlarged
and the course generally tough
ened to a par 71 measuring 7,000
yards.
Challenging Snead will be such
accomplished players as Gene
Littler, Doug Sanders, Billy Max
well, Stan Leonard, Julius Boros,
Kel Nagle, Peter Thomson, Mike
Souchak and Bruce Crampton.

FROM THE

By Joe Callicoatte
The Aggie Baseball team has passed the halfway mark
of the season, but the Southwest Conference title could still
belong to one of several teams.
A&M has had a chance at everyone in the conference
except Texas CHirstian, but that game was rained out last
Saturday.
A big test for the Cadets will come this weekend as they
meet Rice in Houston for a double header. The Owls are the
only team to defeat A&M this year in conference play, even
though Texas managed to tie in Austin.
Whether A&M will produce a winner this season will de
pend on how much they continue the pace at the plate. So
far this season they have collected 135 hits and scored 119
runs. The least amount of counters made in one game was in
the contest with Rice as they only brought home four men.
The team average at the plate for the season is .262.
So far in the SWC’s history of winners, A&M and Texas
hold a margin over the other teams. Texas has won more
than anyone likes to count while the Aggies have taken six
outright and tied twice. The next closest contender is TCU
with two championships.
No A&M team has ever won the crown outright for two
consecutive years, but in 1943 won it after tieing for the
championship in 1942.
A&M will have a chance to make some new history in
this year’s race, if they win it. An Aggie team has never won
the title, skipped a year, and then won it again. Since the
Cadets took the crown in 1959 and missed it last year they
could accomplish this feat.
Only one coach has ever guided an Aggie baseball team
to more than one championship during his reign. R. G. Hig
ginbotham did this as his team won the title in 1931 and 1934.
The 1931 team was captained by R. C. Bell whose 1951 tied
for the championship and won it in 1955.
If the Aggies can win the SWC this year, Coach Tom
Chandler will be even with Higginbotham, who was coach
for eight years.
This year’s team is made up mostly of spohomores and
with the crop of Fish coming up, things look pretty bright
in the future. There may be a lot of history changed in the
near future.
From the looks of the crowds at this year’s home games,
it appears that nobody cares about what the team is doing
or might do.
But, you might be missing something!
One of Baseball’s Best Deals
Cost Minneapolis 20 Cents
By The Associated Press
NEW YORK—Zoilo Versalles
may rank among the best bargains
a ball club ever made. Minneap
olis’ 20-year-old Cuban shortstop
claims he cost the club only 20
cents—the bus fare from his home
in Marianao to the office of scout
Joe Cambria in Havana.
If Versalles .continues to play
up to his opening-day form, the
Twins could stir up some excite
ment in the American League race.
Against the New York Yankees he
collected two singles in five trips
(.400), scored a run and stole two
bases.
Versalles was around briefly
last year, departing during spring
training. He popped off about his
ability as a shortstop. He also
made the mistake of dashing home
to Cuba—to pick up his clothes,
he explained—without permission
from the manager.
He is a changed man this spring.
In fact, he is so changed that he
no longer wants to be called “Zor-
ro,” the nickname hung on him
from the TV character.
THE BATTALION Thursday, April 13, 1961 College Station, Texas
Page 5
Manager Cookie Layagetto had
a long talk with Versalles before
the 1961 spring training. He con
vinced him he must settle down
if he wanted to make the grade.
Zoilo took the message to heart.
“I don’t care what he hits,” said
Lavagetto before Wednesday’s
workout at Yankee Stadium. “As
long as he gives me performance
at shortstop, that’s all I want.”

Two approaches to the
“man’s deodorant” problem
If a man doesn’t mind shaving under his arms, he will probably
find a woman's roll-on satisfactory. Most men, however, find it
simpler and surer to use Mennen Spray Deodorant. Mennen Spray
was made to get through to the skin, where perspiration starts.
And made to work all day. More men use Mennen Spray than any
other deodorant. How about you? 64? and $1.00 plus tax
