third and fourth runs. The Nit

stretch his hit to a triple.
BUT THE LIONS weren’t fin
ished yet. Biesecker ; and center
fielder Dick Pae both drew free
passes as Winchester left the
mound in favor of Dick Ross. ,
Second baseman Don Robinson
greeted Ross with a hard hit triple
up the alley in right center. The
peppery, little Lion scored mo
ments later on a wild pitch. Light

hits. Frank Rushong reached
first as Jonas dropped a' third
strike for his third error of the
afternoon.

AUGUSTA, Ga. {&) —Arnold Palmer surged back with ft

The muscular young pro from Latrobe, Pa., reeled off
four birdies in a ro\y on the back
