Gajda Surprise Leader
In U. 5. Open Tourney
RRflOKLiNE. Mass. (UPI1
Bob Gajda, who decided to be
come a professional after be won
a caddy championship and hasn't
won anything since, led the field
into the second round of the U.S.
Open golf championship today
ahead of such favorites as Arnold
Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Gary
Player.
Gajda, a perennial also - ran,
surprised everyone, including
himself, when he shot a two-un-der-par
89 over the exacting
Country Club course of Brookline
to take the first round lead by
one stroke over Jacky Cupit.
They were the only players in
the star-studded field of 150 who
were able to break Brookline'a
par of 35-36-71.
Ont of the reasons was that
they were able to play the
treacherous back nine better than
most of the others. A lot of them
faltered in that 3,645-yard stretch
of a course which most of the
field considers one of the worst
layout! on which the Open ever
has been played.
Palmer Cards 7J '
Palmer, whose driving, ap
proaching and putting was off,
carded a two-over-par 73, Nick
laus soared to a 76 while Player
had a 74.
Two strokes off Gajda' j pace,
with even par 71's, were two of
the pre-tourney favorites Tony
Lema and Julius Boros along
with 28-yearold Dave Love and
former PGA champion Lionel He
bert. At 72 came former Walter Bur
kemo, Don January, Paul Kelly
and Dean Refram. In the 73

British Amateur champion Rich
ard Davies, Billy Maxwell, Dow

Jacobs, Art Wall, Bill Ogden, Bob
Harris and Stan Thirsk.
Former Open champions Ed
Furgol and Sick Mayer were
among those at 74 along with the
50-year-old Sam Snead, trying for
the 24th time to win this biggest
one and the only major one
he never has won.
Face Cut Taday
But it looked like there would
be a lot of casualties because of
that exacting back nine with the
field to be cut to the tew 50 and
ties after today's second round.
In jeopardy were such as for
mer U. S. Open king Cary Mid
dlecoff with 80, Chick Harbert
and Bob Rosburg with 81, Stan
Leonard with an 82 and a host
of others. In all of their cases,
it was the back-breaking back
nine which they couldn't over
come. The weather didn't help, either.
Gajda played under the best con
ditions, teeing off early when
there was mostly sunshine. After
he finished, the sky became over
cast, the winds became stronger
up to 30 miles an hour and
there was light rain.
But a lot of those who didn't
score as well as anticipated
blamed only themselves.
"I was trying to pin point my
drives and was just little off
line on some of them," said
Nicklaus.
Oiuatiifiad With Putting
Palmer asserted he didn't play
badly if "some of my putts would
have dropped."
Lema said it took him five
hours about as hour over the
average in former Open tourna
ments to play the course "be
cause you have to find the ball
before you can hit it. He was
referring to the deep rough.
But Gajda found everything
just fine.
The pro from Bloomfield Hills,
Mich., had three birdies and only
one bogey in carding bis 35-34
69.
Gajda had II straight pars be
fore be strayed from regulation
figures when he bogeyed the 12th,
where "I hit a wonderful drive
but my ball picked up chunk
of mud and it kept me from hit
ting my approach shot right."
But that was the only hole on
which he made a mistake. He
sank putts of IS, 39 and 15 feet
on the 14th, 16th and 17th holes,
respectively, for birdies.
WORKING out on his timing on hondoffs is quarterback
Doryle Lamonico, former Notre Dome sfor. He is shown
in training with David Fronds, grid great from Ohio Stole.

O'Toole does some occasional

He waa the beneficiary of a
