Nickiaus and Player are return ing to action after passing up the Oklahoma City Open last week for a rest The amazing Nicfcaus al ready has won the Masters, the Palm Springs Classic and the Tournament of Champions this year to go with his 1962 victory in the U.S. Open. Arnold Palmer, third member of golf's famed "big three," was sit ting this one out. The 32-year-old Pennsylvanian, who suffered the second-worst 72-hole score of his career in the Colonial Invitational at Fort Worth earlier this month, said last week he was undergo ing a physical checkup and would play in only two more tourna ments before the VS.

Contract's rinai Year The NFL is currently entering the final year of a two-year pact By United Press International Between them Harvey Branch and Bob Sadowski have won 10 games for the Atlanta Crackers and maybe that is why the Geor gia club is leading the Interna tional League's Southern Division race. Branch, a 24-year-old lefthand cr, gained his fourth victory of the season without a loss Wednesday night in pitching the Crackers to a 1-0 win over the Arkansas Travelers in the first game of a doublcheader, and Sadowski, 25-year-old right-hander, gained his sixth win against one loss in winning the nightf ap 3-2. The two victories gave the Crackers a four-game lead over second-place Indianapolis, which lost to Rochester 3-2, and a five- game edge over the Travelers, Bill Short set Indianapolis down on five hits to gain his third win for the Red Wings. In the only other game played Wednesday. Georges Maranda pitched a five-hit shutout to lead the Jacksonville Suns to a 1-0 victory over the Richmond Vir ginians.

Cassius couldn't resist announcing: "London Bridge is falling down so will Cooper in London town. I am not talking jive, .Cooper (will fall in five." Regained Ills Voice There may be something wrong with the meter, if you're real hep to what the fight mob refers to "peratry. ' but there ran be nothing wrung with a suspicion that the mockingbird has regained his voice. Yon Cassius has been singular-' ly silent since March when a ri val young gentleman named Doug Jones not only refused to fall in a predicted four rounds but very nearly clouted the gabby Clay to the canvas. Cassius won a 10 round decision but it was quite evident that he was lucky to! register his 18th straight triumph. And there were some who thought that Jones had been Jesse Jamesed. Ciay allowed after the votes had been counted that it possibly would be a good thing henceforth and forevermore to forget poetic predictions. Which.i'of course, was in his case akin to asking a rabbit to guard a head of lettuce. "I'm the greatest." long has, been his favorite expression and when a man is 21 you can ex pect near misses like the Jones escape to bounce oil more DnsKi than hail trom a not stove. Called Moore Fight Prior to his frantic exposure toj Jones' talking fists. Cassius had declaimed that he undoubtedly could lower the boom on Sonny Liston in eight rounds and take Floyd Patterson in six heats. He had dualifications. of a sort. In his most serious joust he had called the round against Archie Moore. In the light of subsequent developments, however, it tmrni- derstandable why Archie at that point decided time finally had caught up to his reflexes and re tired to all intents and purposes.
