Boros Opens with 66 to Lead Houston Championship
Julius Boros, 47, shot a 66 to take a one stroke lead into the second round of the Houston Champions International. He has hardly played this year, but his round included two birdies from three woods and he missed just one fairway and two greens. Richard Crawford stood second at 67 as George Knudson shot 68 and Jack Rule, George Archer, and Jacky Cupit tied for third. Arnold Palmer and others posted 70 or 69 as the field chased Boros in Texas.
