Home pros seek upset chance in Miami Valley PGA event
In Dayton at Miami Valley, local home pros discuss the lure of facing touring stars like Sammy Snead and Jackie Burke. They note the appeal of home reputation and the grand prize, with many home players hoping five days of play could yield the brass ring despite early exits for some rivals.

Tommy Ritter, now a Wyoming pro, and Middletown native, officiated at the PGA event. Barney Otten, former Fenwick coach, will lead Lima Central Catholic football and serves as cashier near the clubhouse. Tom Hammons of Middletown, an Air Force lieutenant at Charleston AFB, played in the Armed Forces Tournament at Prestwick. A $10 fee for using Goldman Park lights may be dropped next year if recreation funding rises.
