The 27-year-old Charles shot a morning-round 69 and a 71 in the afternoon for a 140-stroke-total t.iat easily won him the $4,200 first prjze. Rodgers shot rounds of 72 and 76 for 148 in his futile bid for the title won by Arnold Palmer in 19fil and 1962. The victory made Charles the first New Zcalander ever to win the British crown. And he also became the first lefthanded golfer ever to win a major international tournament. In addition to tlie comparatively meager first-prize purse, Charles now faces an opportunity to pick up $50,000 in tile "world series of golf" to be played at Akron. Ohio, Sept. 7 and 8.

But after Charles had matched Rodgers' long birdie putt on the 26th, the Yank lapsed into bogey golf and rapidly arop ped out of contention. Charles had shot a 33-3669 on the morning round and Rodgers a 35-3772. Rodgers narrowed his deficit to one stroke at the 24th hole, but Charles regained his three-shot advantage by the afternoon turn The New Zcalander shot two bir dies, a bogey and a double-bogey on the first nine of the altcrnoon round; Rodgers carded three birdies and four bogeys. At one stage of the afternoon 18, Charles led by five strokes. But Rodgers whittled two shots off that margin when the New Zealander drove out of bounds at the 21st hole; gained another stroke when Charles three-putted the 23rd. and reduced his deficit to one by sinking a 25-foot birdie putt. However, Charles picKed u p four strokes on the next five holes to regain his five-shot lead after the 29th. Tlie New Zealander putted mag nuicently in pulling away to a three-stroke advantage during the morning round.

Dodgers Get Sixth Win Straight NEW YORK (UPH-Bob Miller who couldn't finish a game in the Polo Grounds lust year as a Met came back to haunt his former mates Saturday with a six-hit, 11- 2 victory that gave the Los An geles Dodgers their sixth straight win. It was New York's 14th straight defeat. Miller, given 15-lut support by the Dodgers, breezed to his sixth victory in 10 decisions. The only tins he allowed came on Frunk Thomas' two-run homer in the fourth inning. The Dodgers, who have won 11 of their hist 12,' jumped on starter Tracy Stallard for five runs in the first two innings and coasted thereafter. Wally Moon, with homer and a triple and Maury Wills, with two singles, each drove in three runs.

UPI Telephoto Reddish Denies Lisfon Not Sharp LAS VEGAS IUPD - Trainer Willie Reddish heatedly denied Saturday the "not sharp" rumors which caused tlie odds favoring Sonny Liston to drop from 5-1 to 4-1 for hU July 22 heavyweight ti tle defense against Floyd Patter son in this gambling metropolis. Barney Perlman, announcing the unexpected one-point tightening of tlie price, said "more money is s-howing now for Patterson be cause of persistent rumors that Liston is not nearly as sharp as he was for their first fight and also that Patterson is greatly improved." Perlman, proprietor of the Hia leah Turf and Sports Club in Las Yogas, explained that the betting range favoring big Sonny is 3-1 to 5-1, with tlie friendly, man-toman 4-1 in the middle. Expected 8-1 Odds Because Liston knocked out Pat terson at 2:06 of the first round in their title bout at Chicago last Sept. 25, many sportsmen had ex pected Sonny to be favored at the prohibitive price of about 8-1. Reddish of Philadelphia, a for mer heavyweight contender, de clared at the champion's head quarters in tlie Thundcrbird Hotel; "Sonny is in fine sliape. Re ports that he is flabby under his training clothes are lies. The left knee he injured in Florida last March has not bothered him since he resumed training for the postponed fight." Big Willie explained that the champion weighs only 213 or 214 pounds right now and Uiat he is so "fine" he was given an extra day off on Friday. Sonny weighed exactly 2K for the Chicago fight. Patterson Adds Weight Meanwhile, ex-champ Patterson who hopes to stretch his own record by recapturing flic title second time plans to tamp more powder into his punches by weiclune an additional six pounds He hones to register 195 instead of his 189 at Chicago, according to trainers Dan Florio and Busier Watson. And boxing men in Las Vegas insist that the extra weight ac tually has made him formidable in his sparring at the Dunes ho tel ring. Never before have his sparmates been stunned so often, they say. Jim Dcskin, executive secretary of the Nevada State Athletic Com mission, disclosed Saturday that a sellout of 8.000 and a gate of $320,000 seem practically assured for the big fight iqdoors at Con vention Center. That gate will be a record for Nevada, he said. CINCINNATI, Ohio HIPP - A continuous downpour after two in nings of play forced the postpone ment of Saturday'! Chicago Cub CJnclnnatl Reds game.
