THORNBERHY Troon, Scotland ll'Ptl In comparable Arnold Palmer shot a course-record 67 and a 69 today to win the British Open golf championships for the second straight year with a record 72-hole total of 276 strokes. Palmer's winning margin of six strokes over Kel Nagle of Australia was the largest since 1949. when Bobby Locke of South Afri ca defeated Harry Bradshaw of Ireland by 12 strokes in a 36-hole playoff. Nagle, who played in a twosome with Palmer on the two final rounds of the tour nament today, shot a pair of 70's to wind up with a 282 total. The 32-year-old Masters champion from Latrobe, Pa., sank a 14-foot birdie putt on the final hole to break the old tournament record of 278 set by Peter Thomson of Aus tralia in 1958 and tied by Nagle the following year. Phil Rodgers, 24-year-old rookie pro from La Jolla, Calif., shot two rounds of 72 to finish in a tie for third place with Brian Huggett of England at 289. Sam Snead wound up the tournament with a 37-34-71 which gave him a 292 total. Don Essig had a 40-41-81 for 308. Jack Nicklaus wound up with a 35-44-79 for 305. In the 1960 British Open at St. Andrews, Nagle equaled the tournament record with an aggregate score of 278 to beat Palmer by a stroke. The likeable Pennsylvanian start ed that final round four strokes back of Nagle. Palmer, though, was in the driver's seat this time. He shot a three-under-par 69 Thursday to reach the half way mark of the 72-hole tour nament with a 140. That gave him a two-stroke lead over Nagle, who fired his second straight 71 in the second round. The two leaders were paired for today's final grind. Rodgers, a freshman pro from La Jolla, Calif., was locked in a four-way tie for third place, five strokes off the pace. The red-haired Cali fornian posted a 70 in the sec ond round for a 145 total. Essig, former U.S. public links champion from Indian apolis, carded a second-round 72 for a 148 aggregate; Snead, who won this tournament back in 1946, had a 73 for 149, and Nicklaus, the cur rent U.S. National Open champion, barely qualified for the final 36 holes with an 80-152. Three Yanks were eliminat ed after the second round. They were former U.S. Open champion Gene Littler, who had a 74-153; Jack Isaacs of Longley Field, Va., 78-154, and world Seniors champion Paul Runyan of La Jolla, Calif., 77-156. Littler wasn't the only "name" golfer who failed to survive the cut. Others in cluded former champions Gary Player and Bobby Locke of South Africa, Dal Rces of Wales, the British Ryder Cup captain, and Irish Joe Carr.

Two "sports" who were arrested for fishing in the fish ladder at Savage Rapids dam were found guilty and assessed a fine of $300 each and 40 days in jail. Let's hope that they get such a kick out of this that they feel It for a long time. STILL STALLING Mora and mora mambari of the Houit of Repreientatiree are learning that conservation ists axpact action - not stall ing - on tha proposal to ere at a national wilderneu avi um. Reporti show that con lerTationiils from all parts of tha country are asking their congressman to urga the House interior and insular af fairs committer to complala its deliberations and raport out tha wilderness bill so that It can ba put to a vote In tha Houte before tha and of tha session. Thay know that whole UgiilatiTt processes would have to ba repeated if tha wilderness bill is not voted on before adjournment. WHAT BILL? A favored wilderness bill, S174, by Senator Clinton P. Anderson (N.M.) and others, was approved 78 to 8 by the Senate last year. S174 and similar House bills now are in the House Interior and in sular affairs committee, whose public lands subcommittee held a public hearing in May. The subcommittee did not go into executive session after the hearing, as promised, to mark up the wilderness bill. Instead, the proposal is on the subcommittee's list of bills slated for consideration in ex ecutive session, but it never quite gets to the lop of the list. WALTZ ME AGAIN Tha proposal again hai been schadulad for executive action lata this month, and the bill must gat out of tha committee soon if it It lo gat favorable consideration in tha Houaa this session. Opponents of wilderness are striving to keep the wildarneis bill in committee, thereby killing it as they war unable to do in tha Senate. THE NEXT DANCE Another bill that is stalled in committee is HB1986, which is concerned with the Tule lake wildlife refuge. This bill would stabilize this im portant waterfowl nesting and resting area so that there would be no more encroach ment by agricultural inter ests. This is the largest piece of habitat in the Pacific fly way and it has been gradu ally nibbled on by drainage programs until the farmers consider it as their very own. SIGN UP NOW The latest information avail able states that there will be a hearing on HB1988 on July 19. The hearing will be held by the subcommittee on irri gation and reclamation, and it is chaired by Representa tive Walter Rogers. A tele gram sent to the subcommit tee chairman In Washington, i at 248 East McAndrewt Road Diviiien et CSC (Cencrete Steel Corporation! itJWTRIBUNB D.C., can be sent for the small charge of 75 cents for 15 words. Public Interest usually gets a bill out of committee when all else fails. THE ANGLER'S LOG Rumor has it that there are quite a lew salmon waiting to be caught just beyond the bars at Gold Beach and Brookings. The word is that fisherman have bean having good luck off tha jetties alio and everyone is enthusiastic over tha catches. Things are picking up all over. Diamond Lake Happv davi are here asatn. Limit catches irr coming In and they are running between IS and 18 inchea fighting fat. Most of the luck la being had with FFiW flahed aa close to the bottom aa possible. Willow leaf trolls are doing a fair Job. Fly fishing Is good, but the fish are six or eight inches long. Most of the fishing It In water about 30 feet deep. Fish Lake r I thing Is good. Drifting or trollinr flatfish I. ,., effective. The old standby FF&W it taking fish too. Most of the fih are up to 14 Inches long. Howard Prairie This piece of water It producing a phenomenal number of fish. Everyone isn't catching as many as he would like, but it Isn't because the fish aren't biting. Most of the fish are from to 13 inches long, and thev are iiKing ironed filet or tmall lurea fairly cloae in to thore. Hyatt Lake la very good. Fish are being taken that measure IB inches and 3'i pounds. Most of the luck seems to be found bv stillfiKhlng with eggs. Trolling FF&W silver flatfish Is also pro ductive. Klamath Lake Is alow. A fiw big fith are being taken, bul there aren't too manv fiahermen working very long or hard. Dwight Ellla of Medford caught a 13' pounder. Charles Harrlt of Ath land nabbed a 6i-Dounder and Bob Dorlg of Grunts Pass caught a Sts-pounder. Most of the larger fish seem to like FFStff.

They are caught Just off the bottom by trolling FFAtW or FF&spln-n-glo. Stlllflshlng cheese also works. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER Life might be a bit tedious without a few snaggers and such-like about. We can al ways stand reminding that without them as a basis for comparison we wouldn't know what great sportsmen tha rest of us ara. GOOD LUCK! California's topography ranges from 14.49fi-foot Mi.
