(International) Medfoi RIBUNB SIPCDMrS Americans Practice In St. Andrews St. Andrews, Scotland (U.R) Dale Morey of Indianapolis shot a 73 on the St. Andrews course today for the best score of eight U. S. Walker Cup golfers who tried out the ancient links where the International matches against Britain will beplayed next weekend. Following the practice rounds, ach of the Americans praised the course, especially the condi tion of the turf. Of the nine-man U.S. team, only Captain Bill Campbell of Huntington, W. Va., ever had played St. Andrews before. Bruce Cudd of Portland, Ore., the youngest player on the team at 21, was suffering from a tomach disorder and was the only American who did not work out. He was expected to be in shape for a practice round on Sunday, however. Dick Yost of Portland, Ore., had the best practice round, with a 74, while Campbell and Billy Joe Patton of Morganton, N.C., ach shot a 75. Lt. Joe Conrad of Game Commission Sets Up Operational Guide Portland (U.R) The State Game Commission yesterday set up an operational guide for ac cess to hunting and fishing areas. The commission, at its meet ing here, also approved three access projects. Two are on the Wilson river, at Siskeyville and Kansas Creek tracts. The third is on the Big Nestucca at the mouth of Three Rivers. Future policy, the commission decided, would be to provide ac cess if economically practical and funds were available where fisheries were located or plan ned, or where access to public areas was monopolized for pri vate profit. A spokesman said an analysis of the access problem on all fish ing and hunting areas would be conducted on a statewide basis, in order that a future program of operation could be devised. St. Antonio, Tex., went around in 77; Harvie Ward of San Fran cisco and Jim Jackson of Glen dale, Mo., in 78 each, and Don Cherry of Wichita Falls, Tex., in 79. Oregon State Posts Sixth Moscow, Ida.

Marciano, Cockell End Training San Francisco U.R) Rocky Marciano put the final polish on his body attack Saturday and challenger Don Cockell did his last target practice for the nose as they finished training for Monday night's international heavyweight championship fight at Kezar stadium. Chunky Cockell, a pig-and-poultry farmer of Horam, Eng., was one of the most lightly regarded challengers in heavy weight history as he took his last workout at nearby San Ra fael, Calif. Quotations against him from various odds-makers ranged 10-1 to 20-1. It was 5-4 he wouldn't last five rounds, 2-1 he wouldn't go 10, and 5-1 he wouldn't finish the scheduled 15 rounds. Nevertheless, co-promoter Jim Norris and his associates hoped for at least 30,00 fans and a gate of at least $380,000. "It all depends on the weather," Nor ris said. Brown-haired, 26- year- old Cockell was a lowly underdog for his fight at the concrete and stucco oval where the football Forty-Niners play, because of his comparative record and because he had been unimpressive in training. His work did not en hance his title of British Empire champion. Marciano at Peak Meanwhile, 30-year-old Mar ciano of Brockton, Mass., ap peared at the peak of his career during his sparring sessions -at Calistoga, Caiif., as he prepared for his fifth title defense. Un beaten Rocky, the ring's first perfect-recora heavy champ, seeks his 48th straight profes sional victory. Rocky'g entourage closed the Calistoga training headquarters Saturday after the champ step ped through a light two-round drill with Keene Simmons. They will move to San Francisco this morning where Marci ano will go into seclusion until weigh-in time, Monday. Over in the Cockell camp, the challenger, sporting a slight bruise under his left eye, wound up his sparring with three light rounds against Ron Harman and Stan Bryant. He will take a brisk walk this morning and afternoon. Stan Musia! Gets Five Hits; Up Eight Times St. Louis, Mo. 0J.R) Warning to all pitchers: Take to the storm cellars, Stan (The Man) Musial is on the loose again. Manly Stanley, the Cardinal menace after a slow start this spring has blasted five hits in his last eight at bats and his average jumped from .277 to .308. Sunday.

(U.R) The University of Washing ton's smooth stroking crew outrowed California's varsity on Lake Washington Saturday to win the 234-mile rowing duel by aix lengths. Washington's victory in the varsity race came after a near tragedy was averted in the pre vious race when a Washington oarsman "caught a crab" and was flipped overboard. Bowman Doug Wetter's oar hit the water on the back stroke and tossed him into the drink a half-mile from the finish line. The exhausted rower was hav ing a hard time keeping his head above water and Ivar (Buzz) Girkeland, Washington's light weight crew coach, dove to the rescue and kept Wetter afloat until he was picked up. The ac cident cost Washington's Junior varsity any chance of winning that race, and the Bears finished four and a half lengths in front. Washington won the varsity event in 14:29, far off the course record set by Cal in 1949. Cal ifornia's time was 14:54.6. Washington started off row ing 32 strokes per minute, then steadied down to 30 at the half way mark, and kept the beat there until the final hundred yards before going back to 32. Cal looked rather sloppy at the start, but smothed out a half mile from the finish.
