Campanella took swings at the ball and re ported no pain in the right hand on which a bone-chip operation was performed last November. After the first "live" batting practice, Alston said, "Campy hit the ball pretty good. If I had to judge from what I saw today, I'd say he was all right" to 1:00 000 Houston Open. Palmer's first prize of 87,500 was stacked haphazardly for him in cash in a silver punch bowl as he walked off the 18th green with a one-stroke victory over Doug Ford, the veteran from Mahopac, N. Y., who has been the leading money winner on the winter tour. Palmer, nine-under par at 279 for the 72 holes, sank a 15-foot par putt on the 18th. Ford bird ied the hole to take second prize of $4,000. Veteran Jimmy Demaret and youngsters Gerie Bone and Bob Harris, the front-runners after the third round, slipped badly over the sloshy back nine of the 7,200-yard course.

Y., also had a 35-38-73 for a 282 total for fourth place. The fate that befell Bone could be classed as heart breaking as the 25-year-old red faced pro fell from the second and third day leads with a final round 78, six over par. But Bone was happy because it brought him $1,600. His previous winnings in two years as a pro totaled $33.34. Bone's 284 total put him into a tie with Mike Souchak, Gros singers, N. Y., who moved up with a par 72. Palmer said he knew he need ed only pars on the 17th and 18th to win. "And I wasn't a bit nervous. I was very lucky and got the good breaks." Palmer's short irons and put ter were hot as he picked up five birdies to offset two bogies. 4Ps Arizin Assured Scoring Crown New York (U.R) Injuries to both his chief rivals have just about assured Philadelphia's Paul Arizin of his second Na tional Basketball association scoring championship. Defending champ Bob Petit of the St. Louis Hawks, who suf fered a broken wrist 10 days ago, clung to a narrow lead over Arizin in the weekly scor ing list issued today by the NRA, but it was obvious that lanky Bob's rule was doomed.

But mathematically, Washing ton could still sneak in, if the Trojans could sweep all four games, Cal and UCLA split, and the Huskies could win their final two with Washington state. The standings: California 11 to 1, UCLA 11 to 1, Washington 11 to 3, USC 6 to 4, Stanford 6 to 8, Washington State 4 to 8, Oregon State 3 to 9, Idaho 3 to 11, and Oregon 1 to 11.
