But for all Worsham's perfume-tinted theorising, the gallery which followed him figured that it was consistently consistent-ly good golf more than anything any-thing else that brought him home four strokes ahead of Ben Horan, Tommy Wright and Johnny Palmer the boys who tied for second spot with 280's.' . Most of the. men in the tourney had their ups and downs Her man Keiser of Akron, O., for; example, shot a f ive-under-par 66 the first round and then never cracked par after that. But Worsham was consistent He had two even par 71's, one 66 and one 68. Actually, he played anything but a perfect same of golf evenJ as he coasted home yesterday with a par 71. His putting -was off, and gave him -at 4eat , three pars that could easily have been birdies. 1 But Worsham. the man. who hadn't won a major tournament tourna-ment since taking the biggest of them all the National Open was driving long and approaching accurately. That was the difference. teen Hogan, the perennial money man, came close to occupying oc-cupying the second spot all by himself yesterday. Ben needed a birdie on the treacherous 18th hole to do so, but he missed it when a 25-foot putt landed two inches from the cup. That gave him a 71 for the day the same score Worsham shot yesterday and the 280 tie with Palmer, the recent winner of the Western Open at Salt Lake City, and Wright, from Knox-ville, Knox-ville, Tenn. Palmer had a great chance to take top dough, but blew it on the 18th hole when he scored a seven on the par four. His drive went into the lake and he followed follow-ed this fatal miscue by missing a two-foot putt. Worsham collected the $2,500 for his victory, and Wright, Hogan and Palmer got $1,433.33 each.
