PHONE 773-4221 first triumph in the classic in 44 years of trying. It was back in 1918 that the chairman of the jockey club first tried to win the third of the triple crown clas sics with a horse named Lani us, and the 73-year-old Phil adelphian started seven oth er horses over the years since. He got his initial victory by the closest of possible mar gins for Jaipur charged across the finish line only nose ahead of Fred W. Hooper's Admiral's Voyage with Crim son Satan third, another length and quarter farther back. It was one of the tightest finishes in the long history of the mile and one-half clas sic and you have to go back to 1936 when Granville nosed out Mr. Bones to find one as close. Decidedly, the Kentucky Derby winner, was fourth but he was six and a half lengths behind Crimson Satan and never a threat in the torrid stretch duel between Jaipur, Admiral's Voyage and Crim son Satan. The three horses were spread across the track al most on a line with Admir al's Voyage on the inside, Jaipur in the middle and Crim son Satan on the outside of the charging pack. Crimson Satan was the first to crack. Jaipur, with Willie Shoemaker giving all he had, and Admiral's Voy age, with Braulio Baeza rid ing desperately, struggled on. Right at the finish line Jai pur stuck his nose in front and Widener's drem of a life time came true. But while Widener enjoyed his initial Belmont Stakes success Shoemaker recorded his third triumph. He won with Gallant Man when that colt set an American record of 2:26 35 in winning the race and on Sword Dancer in 1959. He also was fourth aboard Tompion in 1960 and now boasts three Belmont wins in four tries. Jaipur, withheld from the Kentucky Derby to get ready for this race, did not threat en Gallant Man's mark but he was timed in 2:23 45, one of the faster runnings of the race. in MARINE CENTER Ore. 533-2396 OILING Nicklaus Gains Tie Clifton, N. J. (UPr Jack Nicklaus fired a course rec ord seven under par 35-30-65 Saturday for a 207 which tied him with Don Finsterwald for the third round lead in the J100.000 Thunderbird golf tourney. Nicklaus, in the money in all of his 16 tournaments as a pro, played what he describ ed the "best sustained round" as he tied Finsterwald, the former PGA champion, at Up per Montclair Country club. Finsterwald, who hasn't won a tournament in more than two years, carded a 33-34-67. Nicklaus and Finsterwald took over the lead as Sam Snead, who rode a two-stroke advantage going into the third round, collapsed to a 37-41-78 for a 214 on a round in which he said "everything happened but being struck by light ning." Nor was it too much better for Golden Boy Arnold Palm er, who proved himself solid 14 carat when he sacrificed his own ambitions "for the good of the game" by agree ing not to withdraw after a 35-37-72 for 219. Palmer planned to with draw with no chance of earn ing top money to break his own one-year money winning record.

Wright, weighing only 153'2 pounds to Moyer's 159, started .Denny's nose bleeding in the first round with solid left jabs, and the blood seemed to bother 22-year-old Denny during much of their 10-round television bout. Moyer, of Portland, Ore., was favored at 13-5 when they entered the ring. But he won the vote of only one official. Judge Joe Agnello favored Denny, 6-4, but Referee Ar thur Mcrcante had Wright ahead 5-4-1, as did judge Tony Castcllano. The United Press Interna tional favored Moyer, 5-4-1. However, a UPI poll of 15 writers at the ringside showed an even division, six for Moy er, six for Wright and three even. Heavyweight con tenders Eddie Machen and Cleveland Williams were scheduled to fight in the Garden last night, but Machen suffered a brow cut in training. Matchmaker Brenner then substituted the Moyer-Wrlght fight for the heavyweights. There were no knockdowns but Moyer slipped to one knee while evading a left hook in the opening round, wherein Wright attacked furiously Wright suffered a nick on his right brow in the fourth round and his nose began bleed in the sixth.
