That's what th crystal ball says. Rarely does a basketball team get the. opportunity to gain revenge for a costly setback so soon after the defeat has been dished out. And St. John's is certainly an opportunist basketball team.

With Peoria STARS ARRIVE The crowd of golf atars are already beginning to show up at Augusta for the Masters Tournament, probably the most extraordinary tournament in the world. It starts next Thursday and carries through to Sunday, with that mighty man of golf, Ben Hogan, defending the title. Here's a golf tournament that within 1" years, only a short time as golf goes, has leaped from an idea In the. fertile brain of' Cliff Roberts, inio one of the classics of the year.

On a golf course that, originally, was a lot move superb scenery than excellent golf. Here's a golf tournament that ha wen more applied brains and attention than any other I can think of. It's become the hardest to get into, not excepting the Open and the P. G. A.

And with the steady improvement in ihe course, it's aLso become about the hardest to get out of, with a good score. Atop this, what started out as a liability in an effort to honor the name of Bobby Jones, the club president, has turned into something' very close to a bonanza that was able to turn some $25,000 into pro and. in a lesser way, U. S. G.

A. channels, yet yielded the club another $25,000, at least. There is no other tournament like it. So the amateurs have an eye on the invitation that goes with reaching the quarter-finals of the national amateur or making the Walker Cup team the pros seek an in by being among the tops in the national or the last brackets in the P. G.

A. and the younger pros, who have no record in either the national, or have served that five-year sentence of apprenticeship that qualifies them for membership in the P. struggle to make the grade by excellence on the Winter tour. HOTELS SCARCE Atop that, the wise lads scramble for the few hotel accommodations available in a place that is a beehive of new industry, but no- new hotels. And the galleryites buy their tickets early on the suspicion that the Masters might get so classy they'll let only 5,000 in.

If you're not a member, a player, or one of the press, not even a letter from your Congressman will help you get into the clubhouse. Those who run the Masters have learned a lot. And they have improved the course immensely. Originally, the course started on what is now the 10th. It ended on a truly horseshoe-shaped green where it was possible to hit one loop of the green with one's second shot, but be lucky iuiis.

And hole after hole has been improved until it is now truly a rugged layout. The biggest early improvement was on what is now the 10th. By lifting that green high, and giving it a setting, Augusta now has a truly beautiful, and tough hole. The 16th saw as great improvement and, last year, the job on the 11th turned what once was just another golf hole into something demanding the sharpest kind of play. Augusta now is too tough to make it likely that anyone will repeat Byron Nelson's performance the year he beat Flogan in the playoff.

Byron's first round that year included his hitting 17 straight greens right smack in the middle. He had 15 putts for birdies, three for eagles. He missed only the first green and that was only because of a bad bounce. The pin was perched far to the right and Byron played to come to the little gully on that side. The ball hit" the gully, but just slightly off center, the ball sliding to the right, just a little off the green.

Nelson, that day, was actually unlucky njjt to get around in 58 or 59. The round had the greatest scoring potential nf any round I've seen in 20 years of watching. SHOT FOR THE BOOKS I think the weirdest shot I ever saw was at Augusta, too. Here was a classic example of what a storecard ran cover up. It came on what is now the 10th.

hut it was the first as Craig Wood played it. And in those days a little creek ran alongside the right of the green which then was down in the hollow. Craig sent a big drive booming off to the right. It was suicide to go to the left. But this was almost suicidal too, for the big blond gave this a terrific push and it lit out for the tremendously tall pines.

When the ball came down it was on the funny-sheet of a nevvspape And right in the middle of everything. There were trees to the right, the left, in front, behind and overhead. There was no evident way out. But there was a way to advance the ball and hope. Craig took the advance route, turned the face of an iron shut to keep the ball down, hit and hoped.

It was a beautiful shot, straight up the grove, and obviously was going to give him a chance for a "5." But what The ball, striking the side-slope, broke to the left. That was the perfect break. And it kept right on going. And going Its momentum now was practically gravity alone. But there was enough to keep the ball going and give it the impetus to pop over the little' creek and onto the green.

I saw Wiffy Cox pull sort of a similar shot to break Willie Klein's heart in a P. G. A. championship on the 18th at Rockville. I saw Jones' shot that jumped the water at Interlachen and laid the pros flat on their whosises, for that shot really killed 'em.

I saw the one with which Sarazen beat Hagen at Pelham. And maybe a million or so assorted other shots. But this one of Wood's was the tops. After the tee shot, I thought he'd be lucky to take a "6." He halved that. Charles would sign next Mon- The decisive victory was re wiui me Lincago niie oox.

1 1 Dodgers Cold to Twin Bills see the game and flew right; The golf form of this player, except in details (try to spot them), is good. Notice that his left side is virtually straight. His left shoulder is rising and the clubshaft and left arm form one straight line. That's correct. As the player's left shoulder rwe in the shoulder pivot it permits his right shoulder to pass, unimpeded, under his and pour power accu-ratcly into the ball for a sweet shot.

The flaws In this pictured player's golf form are several. His left tot should point more toward the hole opened Instead of being at right angles to the direction line. His right foot should be carrying his weight on the inside of the ball of his foot not the toe. The ball is po-sitioned too far forward even for a long wood. This ii a Xo.
