C., April 1. (/Pill is singularly inappropriate lo be wriing about Ben Hogan on Al!Fool’s Day. For the last two weeks we have been watching young Hogan work a major miracle, and he certain tly has been nobody’s fool.In case you came in laic, he won the $1,200 first prize in the “land of the sky'1 open golf tournament yesterday. If was his third straight victory. It brought his winnings over that stretch to $3,400. It made [New him No. 1 man in that respect with $6,435 for his winter's efforts to $6,152 for Jimmy Demaret.It made him No. 1 man in the eyes of his rivals, too. They might make/■ cracksabout the fact thai the Greensboro and Asheville tournaments were played under winter rules. But the fact remained that they had the same opportunities under those conditions; that Hogan was 34 under par for 216 holes, setting new records with each of his triumphs, and, finally and most conclusively, that Hogan had only two three-putt greens in his 216.Because of that brilliant puttingWithAlthoughricBY HUGH S.
