New Look For Ziegler Opens Memphis Golf Classic Lead
MEMPHIS TENN AP Larry Ziegler leads the Damny Thomas Memphis Golf Classic after posting an eight under par 62 for the first round. He holds a two stroke edge on Frank Beard at Colonial Country Club, a short par 70 layout famed for its tight greens and small greens. Beard shot 64 aided by a refined putting touch and a run of ten one putts. Ziegler hints he may skip the Indianapolis 500 for the first time in five years due to course changes next year and prior injury concerns. Pratt Junior College names Moe Cotter new head football coach replacing Chuck Shelton who resigned to coach elsewhere. Cotter is a Pittsburg State graduate and was Shelton’s assistant at Pratt and in Nevada.
