MEDFORD, OREGON Southern California Captures NCAA Track Crown for 22nd Time Albuquerque, N.M.-UPt-The (2nd annual NCAA track and field championships, won by Southern California for the 22nd time, had its heroes In USC's Julio Marin and Rex Crawley and Stanford's Lar ry Questad. But, It also had its disappointments. - Marin and Crawley provid ed rookie coach Vern Wolfe's USC Trojans 42 of the 81 points that won the team title going away and Questad pro vided Stanford a surprising IB of the 42 points the Palo Alto, Calif., Indians made In hosing out dethroned Oregon for second place. Oregon had 41Two of the biggest disap polntmcnts. oddly enough, were in the USC camp where Larry Stuart, who owned the year's best Javelin throw, fail ed to qualify for the finals, and Kevin Hogan, touted as a sure polnt-gcttcr in the 880 yard dash, also flunked his first trial test. . . But, as It turned out the Trojans didn't miss those lost points a bit as Marin became thn darllns of the meet by ,innina the 6-mile in 30 32.9 tha 3-mile In 14:24.9 and fin- . MmORSaSTRIBUNX Arn Palmer Golf Victor Hoffman, Groth, Gain NCAA Titles Albuquerque, N.M. - DPH -Oregon's defending champion Ducks collected third place and the Oregon State Beavers gained sixth In the NCAA track and field champion ships which ended here Sat urday. ' The Ducks, failing to gel any contribution from big guns Mel Renfro and Keith Forman, accounted for 41 points. The Beavers picked up 29,i Southern California won with 81 and Stanford was sec ond with 42. Oregon State's Norm Hoff man and Morgan Groth took Individual clmmpl o n s h 1 p s. Hoffman won the 8B0-yard run in 1:48.0 and Oroth, a sophomore, captured the mile in 4:0S.3. Tom' O'Hara1 of Loyola of Chicago finished lirst In the mile but was dl- ouallficd for cutting to the rjosl too soon. For Oregon, the top point getters on the final day of the three -day competition were Dave Sloen with a second Place In the shot put, Mike Lehner with a second In the 3,000-mcter steeplechase and Paul Stuber with a third in the high Jump. Stecn, who went 81-1 Pi In Friday night's qualifying round, lost out to Gary Gub ncr of New York University in the finals when Gubner wept 62-9 on his final put. Lehner came in with a 9:10.8 clocking behind Villa nova's Victor Zwolak, who re corded 9:10.1. ' Stuber jumped 6-9 'i for his finish. Teammate Terry Llwellyn collected sixth with 68'. Oregon's other points came from John Burns, fifth in the Javelin at 242-10V4; Bob Wat son, fifth In the pole vault at la-O'i; and Archie San Ro man!, fifth In the mile in 4:06.7: Dave Blunt, sixth In the 100-yard dash In 9.8, and Clayton Stclnkc, sixth in the steeplechase In 0:44.2. Wat ' son's mark was a Canadian and University of Oregon rec ord. Vice Reeve of the Ducks took second in the three-mile run Friday night and Steinke was fifth in the six-mile run Thursday night. For Oregon Stale, Gary Stenlund flnUhed second in the Javelin In 253-4 and Tom Wyall came in sixth in the 440-yard Intermediate hurdles In S1.0. ishing In the 3. 000-meter steeplechase. Cawley ran on fortitude to win the 440-yard hurdles in 49.8 seconds and push Ulis Williams of Ari zona State to the tae in a 49.8 quartermile dash. Another disappointment especially to hopeful Oregon was a first night Injury to Mel Renfro that could have cost the Webfoots from 16 to 20 points since he owned the second best broad jump pnd high hurdles times in the na tion. Questad had a hand in con tributing to another disap pointment as he boosted his own stock by turning in a stunning defeat of Arizona State's Henry Carr in the 100-yard dash in 9.7 scconds- an event in which Carr has a 9.3 pending world mark. Carr stoned a bit In the 220-yard dash as he outlcggcd the Stanford sophomoe to the tape in the NCAA meet rec ord time of 20.9 seconds, which also matches the ac cepted world and American record around a curve. Mistook Marker Freckled Tom O'Hara of Loyola of Chicago was a dis appointment, and yet he was not either. The slightly-built windy city lad ran the mile- was disqualified for cutting to the post too soon on the first lap when he mistook blue markings on the track for the "break point" where runners may leave their lanes. The penalty made Morgan Groth, a teen-aged Oregon State sophomore the mile champ in 4:09.3, which caused Groth to call it "a rotten way to win It." Brian Sternberg, the cap- lain of the fiberglass vaulting pole from Washington, also was a mild disappointment al though he boosted the NCAA meet record to 16 feet 42,'t inches. The crowd was dis mayed when Sternberg, who eight days earlier had cleared 16-8, failed three times a 16-9'4 the last time by the brush of his shirt against the bar.

Y. - IliPS - Arnold Palmer today called his vic tory in the 1 100,000 Thunder- bird Open "$zs,ooo worth o: mistakes which will help me win the Open." Golf's Golden Boy definite ly became the man to beat for the big one at Brookllne, Mass., this week, when he staged another of his miracle finishes to win tha first place money Sunday In a sudden death playoff with veteran Paul Harney. It marked his return to tournament golf attar a month's layoff and the way ha came back expelled all doubts that hia days as one of golf's greats were over be cause he had too many busi ness Interests occupying his time. Palmer carded a final round two-over-par 72 for a total of 277 while Harney carded a 69 for the same aggregate. Defending champion Gene Littler finisned third ai 278 with Dow Finstcrwald and Bill Collins tied for fourth with 279s. Then came PGA champion Gary Player and Tom Nieporte at 281 while Jay Hcbert, Bobby Nichols and Joe Campbell lied at 281. For a time on a sunny Sun day which drew a gallery of more than 13,000 persons to the Westchester Country club It looked like Palmer-a front runner all the way-was going to blow his return to the golf ing wars. But in the end victory went to Palmcr-at his best when the chips really were down. The 918-yard par five 18th provided the drama of the day. With the crowd getting out of control, Harney drove to the edge of a trap while Palmer was down in the mid dle. Harney's second shot was 1 120 yards short of the green while Palmer's second barely I cleared a trap. Harney hit his approach to within six feet of the pin. When Harney missed his putt, It looked like Palmer had it won. But the pressure even told on this Iron man of the fairways and he, too, blew his putt. So they went to the first extra hole-a par three, 100- yardcr. Harney won the flip of the coin, teed off first and sent his four Iron shot over the green. Palmer's four Iron tee shot was dead to the pin and stopped 10 feet short. Harney chipped to within five feci of the cup. Palmer then putted to with in four toot and when Harney missed the five footer, he tapped his putt in for the $29,000 jackpot. Mile Groth. Oregon suit: El more.
