Ann Welts Cops
Women's U.S.
Golf Crown
Williamstown, Mass. fUPD
Anne Quast Welts fought off
a valiant last-ditch rally by
spunky Peg Conley of Spo
kane, Wash., Saturday to win
the U. S. Golf association
women's amateur champion
ship for the third time.
The 25-year-old high school
teacher from Mount Vernon,
Wash., calmly sank a 15-foot
putt on the 35th hole to win,
2 and 1, in the 63th renewal
of this golf classic at the
Taconic Golf club.
Mrs. Welts' victory dashed
16-year-old Miss Conley 's
hopes of becoming the young
est person ever to win the
event since it started in 1895
Mrs. Welts, who captured
the women's amateur in 1958
and 1961, came back from a
two-hole deficit early in the
second round. She forged
ahead on the 27th hole, went
3 up at the 30th, lost the
32nd but held on to win.
Her victory made Mrs.
Welts the seventh player ever
to win the women's amateur
three times.
Miss Conley was 1 up fol
lowing the first 18 holes on
the par 72 course. She quickly
grabbed the first hole of the
second round to go 2 up but
fired bogeys on the second
and eighth holes to drop back
even with Mrs. Welts.
Mrs. Welts bogeyed the
short ninth but won it, too,
when Miss Conley double-
bogeyed.
After Mrs. Welts took the
11th with a birdie and the
12th with a bogey, all she had
to do was hang on for the
victory. Miss Conley closed
the gap to two holes by win
ning the 14th with a birdie
two but both players parred
the 15th and 16th.

New York - (UPD - Middle
weight contender Jose Gon
zales of Puerto Rico weather
ed a terrific battering in the
fourth and fifth rounds and
came on to score his fifth
straight victory lust night
on a unanimous 10-round de
cision over slugger Juan
(Rocky) Rixero at Mndison
Square Garden.
The somewhat taller Gon
zalcb, weighing 159' 4 pounds
to the somewhat pudgy Riv-
ero's 161, beat the "Little Bull
of the Pampas" from Argen
tina with superior 1 o n g-
range fighting.
There were no knockdowns
in the nationally - televised
bout but the crowd of 2.000
was thrilled by the furious
punching in most of the
rounds.
Gonzalez, ranked 10th
among contenders by the
World Boxing association and
eighth by the Ring Magazine,
was favored at 1 1-5. But In
the fourth and fifth session,
it seemed that he might be
knocked out.
Rivero, unranked among
contenders suffered the
eighth defeat In his career of
47 bouts - despite the fact
that former middleweight
Rocky Grazlano, his new
mentor, was shouting advice
from the corner In every
round.

for such a review by alumni
groups.
"We should look at the ath
letic policies and programs at
the various institutions," Dun
lap said. "I have thought this
for a long time."
Two alumni groups (one
composed of former athletes
at the university at Athens),
have called for a shakeup at
Georgia following the $3,060,-
000 federal court award last
Tuesday to Butts, former
coach and athletic director,
in his libel suit against the
Saturday Evening Post.
Testimony in the bitter lit
igation, arising over a report
by the Post that Butts rigged
last years Alabama- Georgia
game, split ranks among Geor
gia's coaching staff and for
mer coaches. One assistant
coach, John Gregory, claimed
he was fired after he testified
in behalf of Butts.
Dunlap declined to elabo
rate on what sort of Investi
gation into policies the 15-
man board would make.
Neither would he comment
on a demand by Cliff C. Kim-
sey Jr., a banker from Cor
nelia, Ga., and head of the
Georgia Lettermen's associa
tion, that six members of the
school's athletic board resign
because of what he called ani
mosity they held toward
Butts.
"I know Kinisey and he is
a good friend," Dunlap said.
"I think that's all I want to
say."
Kimsey said the handling
of the Butts affair, which he
said was "thoroughly and com
pletely repudiated by a fed
eral court jury" had caused
"untold damage to the pres
tige of the University of Geor
gia and to the state of Geor
gia." Several of the six members
whose resignations he called
for testified against Butts in
his court suit.

Southpaw Whitey Ford,
closing in on the second 20
victory season of his career
just as the New York Yank
ees are closing in on the pen
nant, scattered six singles
Saturday to give the Yankees
a 3-0 triumph over the Chi
cago White Sox.
It was the 18th victory for
Ford, a total he has topped
only twice before. He did not
walk a single batter and he
struck out eight, leaving him
only 10 strikeouts short of
the Yankee team record of
1,530 held by Red Ruffing.
The Yankees gave Ford two
runs in the fifth inning in his
duel with Ray Herbert, and
Johnny Blanchard closed tne
scoring by hammering a two
out homer in the eighth in
ning. It was the 13th homer of
the year for Blanchard and
the 10th he has hit since July
22.
After being held scoreless
for four innings by Herbert,
the Yankees scored in the
fifth when Phil Linz singled
to left, took second as Ford
grounded out, and came home
on Tony Kubek's double. Ku
bek then scored on Bobby
Richardson's single.
In two other American
league afternoon games, the
Detroit Tigers edged the Kan
sas City Athletics, 4-3, in 13
innings and the Cleveland In
dians beat the Boston Red
Sox, 6-2.
Al Kaline's 13th-innlng sin
gle off Moe Drabowsky gave
u.e Tigers their win over Kan
sas City. Kaline hit a two
run homer in the first inning.
His game winning hit scored
Bill Bruton, who had beaten
out a bunt single and moved
to second on Dick McAuliffe's
walk.
Gus Triandos also homered
for Detroit and Norm Siebern
for Kansas City. Don Mossi,
who pitched three - hit shut
out relief for 10 innings, was
the winner.
Dick Donovan of the Indi
ans gave up a pair of homers
to Ed Bressoud of the Red Sox
in pitching a five-hit victory.
The Indians scored all their
runs in the seventh, Jerry
Kindall's two - run homer
starting the rally.
In a pair of night games,
the Minnesota Twins edged
the Baltimore Orioles, 1-0, and
the Los Angeles clubbed the
Washington Senators, 10-2.

Bonneville Drivers
Shatter Six Speed
Records at Event
Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah
- (UP1) - The 15th annual Bon
neville National speed trials
ended here Saturday after
noon with six new records set
as grease monkeys, drivers,
car owners and spectators
packed up their gear and re
turned home.
The auto and motorcycle
jockeys called it quits for an
other year after a hard and
hot day on the salt. A total
of 32 new records in the 74
classes available were set dur
ing the trials.
A record number of 169
cars were participating for the
past week in the trials. A total
of 1,415 runs were made by
the cars and the 18 motorcy
cles attempting new records.
In the fastest time clocked
Saturday, Nolan White of San
Diego, Calif., hot-rodded his
Class C sports racer to a speed
of 210.47 miles per hours -knocking
the old record of
188.162 off the books.
The nationals ended with
award ceremonies under a
blazing sun Saturday after
noon. An estimated 2,000 driv
ers, mechanics and track oili
cials attended the ceremonies.
During the week-long meet,
Butch Summers of Ontario,
Calif., rocketed his Class C
streamliner to a speed of
316.59 miles per hour for a
new record in that division
and to the fastest time clocked
by any car during this year's
running.
The fastest stock-car time
set by a driver was achieved
by "Grandpappy" Norman
Thatcher, a 66-ycar-old racing
bug from Van Nuys, Calif.
Thatcher, a grandfather be
lieved to be the oldest pro
fessional racing car driver in
the United States, managed
to hit the top, two-way speed
of 169.62.
The fastest time during the
running in the supercharged
division was clocked by the
Pisano Brothers supercharged
B racer. Jim Short of Angling
to, Tex., boosted his racer to
a speed of 197.63 miles per
hour, bettering the old record
by about 7 mph.
Twelve marks fell during
Friday's runs. The best time
was turned in by Ernie Im
merso of Phoenix, Ariz. He
took his Class A streamliner
across the salt at a speed of
$229.25 mph. However, the
four-engined vehicle shook so
badly crossing the salt that
Immerso drove at times with
his knees because his hands
were so blistered.
There were no serious in
juries during the week of
time trials, even though one
driver flipped and rolled
while traveling 225 mph.
Records set Saturday were:
Nolan White, San Diego,
Calif., C sports racer, 210.74
mph, old record 188.162 mph.
Noel Black, Sacramento,
Calif., a gas roadster, 191.561,
