Open Aspirants Target To Take NEW YORK (UPl)-The magic number is "133" tor another army of golfers seeking 117 berths today in the next round of; qualifying tests for the U.S. Open championship. Lanky Kansas City pro Stan Thirsk, playing in his home town Monday, set up the magic num ber with a record seven-under-par 67-66133 for the nationwide lead among more than 2,0001 Tacoma increases PCI Lead To 312 By United Press International The Tacoma Giants today were whistling a variation of that old standard, "what a difference a day makes." Only Giants would change the title slight and call it, "what a difference a week makes." Just a week ago Tacoma held a slim half-game lead over the Seattle Rainicrs in the Pacific Coast League's Northern Division pennant chase. Today, and seven games later, that margin has grown to a comfortable three and one-half games. The Giants added to their lead Monday night when they scored six runs in the first inning and coasted to an 8-3 victory over the Portland Beavers. At the same time, the slumping Rainiers ran into a strong eight hit performance by Howie Reed and dropped a 5-0 decision to the Spokane Indians. Elsewhere, Hawaii's Ron Moel ler tossed a sparkling four-hitter as the Islanders squeezed by Salt Lake City 1-0 and Dallas-Fort Worth pounded out 12 hits to dump Oklahoma City 7-3. San Diego was idle and Denver lost a 7-2 exhibition decision to the Kan sas City Athletics. Jack Davis capped Tacoma's first inning explosion when he smashed a home run 400 feet over the left ccnterfield fence with two teammates on base. The Giants starter, Jerry Thom as, survived a shaky third inning and went the distance for his fifth victory of the season. Port-I land scored all its runs in the third on a triple by pitcher Lew Krausse, doubles by Jay Hankins and Ken Harrclson, and a single by Manny Jiminez. Spokane's Reed was in trouble Newell Places First ALTURAS Newell Elementary School captured the first place team trophy with a bare one point lead over the Alturas Elementary School at the Modoc County Ele mentary School Track Meet Fri day afternoon.

HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Careless Shinnick's SAN FRANCISCO (UPU - Everybody agrees that Phil Shin- nick of University of Washington broke the world record when he broad jumped 27 feet, 4 inches at tlie California Relays in Modesto the other night. But officials are just wasting their time and falsely raising the hopes of the 20-year-old athlete if they think they ever can get tlie ecord certified. For those who came in late, somebody forgot to turn on the wind velocity gauge for the jump and that eliminated all chances o.' a world record right Uiere. "I can't see any way the inter national federation could recognize the world record, said a sad Harold Berliner, high official in world track and field circles. "We know he jumped the distance, but there's no way to prove how strong the wind was blowing." The allowable wind velocity is 4.473 miles per hour. And it had Forman, Reeve To Rejoin OU EUGENE ( UPI ) Distance run ners Keith Forman and Vic Reeve will rejoin the Oregon track team for its meet with Oregon State on Thursday. Forman has had a sore heel and Reeve has recovered from heat exhaustion suffered in the Far West championships at Pullman. Falls, Ore. Official Destroys Shot At Iwen blowing between three and seven miles and hour jtist before the jump. So there's no way of telling if it was a legal jump. Berliner says he asked the man who was supposed to gauge the wind, Leon Glover Jr., about the error. "He said he didn't look at the gauge, but believed the wind was about four and one-halt miles per hour," said Berliner. "That would have ruled out the jump right there. And Charley Hunter, veteran chief referee, said he would not certify the mark. If it s any solace to the sandy- haired Shinnick, he isn't the first one who has been robbed of a world title because of an error by an official. Earlier this vear Bob Hayes, one of tlie world's great sprinters, was clocked in 9.1 for the 100 yard dash and thought he hod the world mark all by himself. Then it was discovered that hte official wasn't firing the right caliber pistol and the record was rejected. Al Oertcr, the world discus king, thought he had a new world mark in a meet last spring. But it was discovered there was a minute slant in tlie field and the rec ord was denied.' Shinnick's broad jump was e super-human effort on his part possibly a jump that was inspired by watching Ralph Boston go out around the 27-foot mark. It's doubtful that tlie Spokane.
