Texas Offers $282, OOO
In Biggest Golf Year Yet
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
Texas’ biggest golf year is com
ing up. •
There will be $282,000 in prize
money. It is the most ever offered
in this state. Last year Texas put
up $240,000, then the all-time high.
WHAT MAKES 1963 the big
gest year is the National PCA,
scheduled for the Dallas Athletic
Club Country Club July 18^-21.
This tournament last year paid
out $72,000 when held at Philadel
phia. First place got $13,000.
That’s more than the top money-
winner of golf earned 25 years
ago.
What will be provided in the
PGA in Dallas won’t be known un
til the income is determined, but
there is no reason to believe that
Texas can’t have as big a tourna
ment as anybody. Total receipts
will run around $300,000.
The Houston Classic and Co
lonial National Invitation tourna
ments to be held in late April and
early May will post $50,000 each.
The Texas Open at San Antonio
April 22-28 will have $30,000 prize
money.
The Dallas Open, which paid
$35,000 last year, won’t be held
in deference to the National PGA
but Odessa will have its $30,000
pro-amateur and in the fall Beau
mont will put on its $20,000 Open.
THERE WILL be three women’s
tournaments, paying a total of
$25,000. They will be the Dallas
Civitan, Babe Zaharias Open at
Beaumont and the San Antonio
Civitan. Austin held a woman’s
tournament last year but isn’t ex
pected to repeat.
Texas comes nearer to the No. 1
spot in the nation than ever be
fore, but still will have to be hap
py with No. 2. California offers
more than $300,000 in golf prize
money.
Texas’ biggest year comes with
out a Texan among the top play
ers. Bobby Nichols o f Midland
was the heaviest winner last year,
with $34,311.92, but he still ranked
No. 9 on the list. Billy Maxwell
was twelfth with $31,834.04, while
Jacky Cupit of Longview was
twenty-first with $24,507.25.
MAXWELL HAS a residence in
Dallas but last year was insisting
on being listed as from Las Vegas.
That was one of the things he was
ired about at the Dallas Open. He
was angry with some of the writ
ers who didn’t carry his listed
hometown.
But Maxwell’s relations with the
press haven’t been very amicable
anyway. He is a throwback to
Sam Snead, who usually gave the
cold shoulder to the press. Back
in the forties, the tournament di
rector at times corralled Snead
and brought him in for a'talk with
the sports writers in an effort to
bring better relations.
At the Dallas Open Maxwell, al
though leading the tournament,
declined to talk to the press or
anybody at the conclusion of his
third round. Maxwell and Snead
had one thing in common: con
sistency. They were as likely to
give the press the run-around
whether they had a good score or
a high one.
Just what they thought they
were accomplishing with this atti
tude was difficult to understand.
However, they both have done all
right in golf even with the press
irked at them most of the time.
They had the advantage. The
press couldn’t ignore a winner.

NEW YORK <AP) — Ambitious,
young Cassius Clay has been pro
moted to No. 2 heavyweight con
