(55.000 American Golf Classic. I' Because the long and exacting Ifirestone Country Club course covers 7,155 yards, booming and accurate tee shots are the key lo success. The fairways are nar row and well bunkered, leaving little margin for error. The odds-makers made golf's "big three" the favorites, quot ing Palmer at 4-1, Boras at 5-1 and Nicklaus at 6-1. A lot of golf ers did not agree with the Nick laus odds. "If big Jack hits 'em straicht. he's likely to nin sway from the Held," predicted Joe Campbell. !lt would take super golf on the part ol I'almcr, Boros or any Uither players to beat him if he is his usual self off the tees." v Jack's Tempo Off Nicklaus wasn't too happy w ith his driving Wednesday in his only tuncup round for the Classic. "My tempo is off," he com plained. But after spending sev eral hours on (he practice toe he appeared to be getting his driver! back on the beam. Boros said ho was "hitting the ball all right." "1 just hope I can keep it up,' - lie added. The U. S. 0wn champ- ; ion is noted for the success he ' has had in playing tough courses and the Firestone layout is con ; f idercd the toughest in the busi boss. "No golf course in the world . has a stretch of six tough hole like thoy have here," said Kd Kurgol, a former II. S. Open Practice Set At Bonanza ; Carlyle Sluart, head football ; coach at Bonanza High, an .nounced this week that football equipment will be issued to Bo j.'nanra players at 7 p.m. on Fri ' day, Aug.' 23 First practice session for foot ballers is scheduled for Monday Aug. 2fi, at 6 p.m. pitcher's offerings," Moore said "We hit the ball well but it just would not drop in for us until the sixth inning. We were too late then. I guess I went too long with Bobby i Williams' but you just don't give up on a kid like him. He has been that wav a few times before and pitched his way out of it. He just didn't have it today,' he related. "We are disappointed in the early going of the game in the way we played, but wo came on in the last few innings and played good ball. Some of the balls w hit were right on the nose but right at someone," he said. Klamath has plaved better base ball games this year, Williams has pitched better games and the kids have hit better. But despite the first. Hill declared safe, but he ran back to dugout, but Moor called for bail and Ihey called him out.

The rmikie showed ability to move the team in hi: pro debut last week, although the Hams lost. Savrc said Dick Bass and Art Perkins will be the running backs for the Itams and Jim Phillips, Pervis Atkins and Carroll Dale will provide the aerial targets. The Rams arc expected to ar rive here Friday from their train ing camp at Orange, Calif. At Forest Grove, meanwhile, Dallas coach Tom Landry an nounced the 5-7 veteran Kiklie i.enaron will he his starting quarterback. The Cowboys wont through an afternoon practice ses sion, concentrating mostly on pass protection and blocking. four errors they committed, they were beaten by a better team on this particular night. Tulsa had its hitting bats lor this game They had very nearly been no-hit Tuesday night by a fired up host Farmington team before winning in the last of the seventh with two out when a Farmington outfield er dropped a fly ball to right field and allowed both runs lo score in a 2-1 victory which was sheer robbery. Gourd in return had served up his sweeping slow curve ball for five full innings without tlie Klam ath team getting a hit. He had set the Oregonians down in order for four straight innings. He had allowed only a walk to Bob Moore in the first inning.

(Only games scheduled) By MARTIN LADKR L'PI Sports Writer The New York Yankees having a brawl as they merrily dance their way to another Amcr ican League pennant. As for those skeptics who have protested the lack of fight In the junior circuit, tlicv would have had a ball themselves had they been at Yankee Stadium Wednes day night. In tlie liest extra-mural scuttle of the season. New York first baseman Joe Pcpitone precipitat ed a general melee between mem bers of the Yankees and Clcve- land Indians after being hit by a pitch thrown by Gary Bell in the eighth inning of the second game of a twi-night doubleheader. The ensuing scene somewhat resem bled a barnyard dance as players grappled with anyone in reach. Pcpitone. who earlier in the game had been hit by starter Harry Uitnian and then was brushed hack by Bell before being hit again, was tossed out of the game when the umpires finally restored order. Bell received a warning from plate umpire Lou Dimuro, which automatically calls for a $50 fine. Yanks Win Two Regarding the fight the Yan kees are paid to win, thev look both ends of the doubleheader bv identical 3-1 scores. The sweep. engineered behind the fine pitch ing of Al Downing and Stan Wil liams, boosted New York into a Gear Issued To KU Team The snap in the air these days Is emphasized tonight when foolhall equipment Is is turd al the Ilrld house lo Kl IIS (onlhallers for the coming sen. son.

Physical examinations will he given for all football players Friday starling at ( p.m. Kim Badley broke up that no hitter in the sixth w hen he led otf with a double. Williams who lost his first game of the season, sim ply didn't have his stuff in this game. He was in trouble from the beginning and some of the field ing behind him wasn't tlie best. A double play got him out of a possible jam in the first inning. Klamath did not threaten in the first although Moore reached first on the free pass. Dave Lyman popped out for the third out. Oklahoma threatened in the second but did not score and left the bags jammed when Alan Mezger pulled down a long drive to center field with a fine running catch with his back to the plate. Tulsa got its first run in the NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon the Northern California League. The Medo-Bels won the league season, edging Weed in the stand ings when they won their final game of the regular season and 10-game lead over the second place Chicago White Sox. In other American League con tests, the Los Angeles Angels! edged Baltimore, 3-2, in the sec-! ond game of a twi-night double-l header after the Orioles had tak en the opener, 7-4; the White Sox topped the Boston Red Sox, 7-1 the Washington Senators beat the Kansas City Athletics, 5-1; and in day contest the Minnesota Twins routed the Detroit Tigers, 12-1. Provides Winning Margin Pcpitone had better luck with his bat than with his fists since it was his two-run double in the first inning of the nightcap that provided Williams with his win-, "ing margin. Tom Tresh banged two doubles to figure in all the Yankee scoring in the opener. Steve Barber went only 5 2-3 in nings in the first game for Balti more but still received credit for his 18th victory, top figure in the league. The Orioles broke the game open with six runs in the second inning. A scventh-inninc pinch-hit single by Bob Rodeers drove in the winning Los Angeles in in tlie second contest. Rookie Gary Peters won his ninth straight game for the White Sox. He received amnle sunnnrt from Tom Mcraw with four hits and Pete Ward, who had a home- run. Don Lock and Don Zimmer each blasted home runs and Ron .Mocller picked up his first win oi the year tor Washington al-l though he needed relief help from veteran td Roebuck.

They had to drown their sorrow in beer a year ago but times have changed and barring some unforeseen catastrophe they should appear in their first World Series since 1959 six weeks from now. To all intents and purposes, the Dodgers disposed of their last se rious challengers Wednesday night when they beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 2-1, in a 16-in-ning thriller for their seventh straight victory. The triumph took them . three hours and 43 minutes to achieve but it was worth H because they are now 7'i games in front with little chance of being headed off again. A crowd of 54,125, largest of the year at Chavez Ravine, saw the Dodgers prevail when rookie Ken McMullen doubled off Ron Taylor in the 16th and came home on John Roseboro's single along the left field line.

But he struck out 10 batters to raise his season to tal to 233, tops in the major leagues. St. Louis starter Curt Simmons departed after pitching 13 innings. Elsewhere in the National League, the skidding San Fran cisco Giants dropped their fifth straight and tumbled to within a half game of fourth place when Ihey were beaten by tlie Milwau kee Braves, 6-2, Houston blanked Cincinnati, 1-0, and Pittsburgh topped Chicago, 7-6. The game between the Phillies and Mets was rained out. Mathews Hits Two Eddie Mathews' 17th and 18th homers off Giant starter Gaylord Perry paced a 14-hit attack that brought the Braves their fifth straight victory. Don Nottebart tossed the first shutout of his major league ca reer and held the Reds to four hits in registering his eighth vic tory for the Colts. Jerry Lynch set a major league cenlerlield, 360 feet away, which tlie cenlerfielder caught against tlie fence and then pegged per fectly to second to get McNary going to second after the catch or the double play. Tlie final run came in the sev enth with a big rally which fell off with just one run scoring. Ly man led off the inning with a single and Williams and Kenny Pound made outs. Greg Broster hous kept things alive with a booming double to left center but a fine play held Lyman at third. Badley walked to fill the bags and Mike Keck hit for Huettl and drew another walk to force home the second run. Rick Brosterhous finished the threat with a liner right back at tlie pitcher. 1 In 16 record for pinch homers with the 15th of his career in the ninth inning to break a 6-all tie be tween the Pirates and Cubs.
