1e ONE OF GAME'S GR THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Monday, June 15, 1953 EATS Alec Bedser's Great Bowling Makes Test Match History By ROBERT JONES NOTTINGHAM (AP)--Alec Bed- ser bowled himself into the ranks of cricket's immortals Saturday by taking seven Australian second- inn'ngs wickets for 44 in one of th finest performances since Test m 'ches started in 1877. . > not only shattered the might ustralia's batting for a meagre 12.. but he gave England a fight- in- chance of pulling off victory ir 1 day of fluctuating fortunes. sen umpires Dai Davies and H_ old Elliott called a halt because of bad light, 15 minutes before the close, England needed 187 runs to win with nine wickets still to fall. They. had scored 42 runs for one wet. nd the game was as open as wn door. The notorious Trent ge pitch was still fairly docile -- ough a bad spot at one end Ic :d ominous. »dser's match analysis was 14 w.. sets for 99--and that without any help from the wicket. He beat the Sidney Barnes' Eng- oi a E lish record of 189 wickets in Test matches, came within an inch of equalling the record of Wilfred Rhodes and Hedley Verity of 15 Australian wickets in a match, and now has his sights firmly fixed on Clarrie Grimmett's mark of 216 test wickets. . The morning started badly for England--only 92 on the board and four wickets standing. Those four went fairly quickly, despite a courageous 29 not out by Johnny Wardle, and the innings finished at 144--105 behind. Ray Lindwall was the wrecker of the innings with five for 57. Then came Australia's turn. Unlucky Graham Hole, Hassett, Miller, Harvey and Benaud all fell to Bedser, who at one time took five wickets for 28 runs in 15 | overs, and half the Australian side were out for 68 inside 90 minutes. Doughty Arthur Morrisept plug- ging away at one end and by the time he was bowled by Tattersall he had made 60--nearly half the Australian total. HIS 4TH U.S. OPEN TITLE Ben Hogan's Sizzling Finish Shatters Par by Five Strokes By WILL GRIMSLEY OAKMONT, Pa. (AP)--Unshake- able Ben Hogan made it No. 4| Saturday and hapless Sam Snead blew another one in a pressurized head-to-head battle for the 53rd United States open golf champion- sh'p. The leathery Texas master nailed Snead's doom with a dramatic birdie-birdie finish that gave him a final round 71 and a 72-hole total of 283, which shattered Oak- mont's heretofore impregnable par by five strokes. His margin over runner-up Snead was six strokes. Hogan had rounds of 67-72-63-71 around the sprawling 6,916-yard course which plays a rugged 37- 35-72. The previous 72-hole com- petitive record for the layout was 294, set by Willie McFarlane in 1934. Snead was on the 14th green when Hogan rammed home his five-foot birdie putt on the final hole. He limped in with a 76 for | a final score of 289. Snead had the door thrown open to him several-times during Satur- day's exhausting double round. He collared Hogan at the third hole of the morning round, passed the ace-setter by two strokes at the ifth and seemed headed for pos- sib!» victory when his game sud- denly went sour. ; He cut Hogan's Yead to a single stroke with a par 72 in the morn- ing while Ben took a 73. it Sam never could catch his old nemesis in the afternoon. I'ogan thus became the third man in the history of this classic to win the championship four times Over Orillia, Mimico Loses By THE CANADIAN PRESS St. Catharines Athletics added an assurance win to their lead in the Senior Ontario Lacrosse Asso- cia"on Saturday night.

The other halfway leaders, Lloyd Mangrum, George Fazio and Jay Hebert, faded in the morning. One over par with two holes to play, Hogan came to the 17th and put the kindling to a wood shot that projected the ball to the green 292 yards away. He was left with a 35-foot putt and finally 'sank it for his birdie three. : On the 18th," Hogan powered a drive down the middle and then poked a five-iron shot to the green, five feet from the cup. His putt hit the back of the can. Mangrum, the 1949 champion from Niles, Ill.,, finished with rounds of 75-74 for a total.of 292. This gave him third money.

The five-team western group takes in Toronto Ryerson, Hamil- ton and new clubs from Welland, Stratford and Oakville.

Native Dancer Wins by Neck Over Jamie K By JOHN CHANDLER NEW YORK (AP)--A busy sum- mer and fall program was mapped today for Alfred Vanderbilt's Na- tive Dancer, the grey galloper who fwon the $118,600 Belmont Stakes and clinched the three-year-old championship of 1953. As horsedom still thrilled over {the Dancer's terrific stretch run | Saturday at Belmont Park where he caught and defeated Jamie K. by a neck, the Vanderbilt cam- paign n¥enagers were looking for- ward to more fields to conquer. 'He proved himself to others, but there never was any doubt with me that he was a champion," said Bill Winfrey, who trains the grey son of Polynesian. 'Next comes the Dwyer, then to Chicago for the Arlington Classic," Winfrey said Sunday. The Dwyer is a 1% mile race for $50,000 at Aqueduct July 4, while the classic is a one-mile affair carrying $100,000 in added money. Only six horses went postward in the 1'2-mile Belmont, and it was a two-horse duel between the Dan- cer and Jamie K. from Jim Nor- ris' Spring Hill farm. It was a du- plicate finish of the Preakness May 23, when the grey flyer de- feated Jamie K. by a neck. In the Preakness Native Dancer was leading in the stretch and Jamie K. couldn't catch him. In the Belmont, Eddie Arcaro put Jamie K. into the lead on the final turn after the pace-setting Ram O"War tired, but Eric Guerin aboard Native Dancer did catch the Norris colt in the run to the wire. Native Dancer's time of 2.28 3-5 was just one second off the track record set in 1942 by Bolingbroke under 115 pounds, whereas the | Dancer carried 126.
