Klamath Micklaus Three Putts To Tie With Charles By OSCAR FRALEY I'PI Sports Writer AKRON, Ohio (UPIl Jack Micklaus three - putted the final green Saturday (or a double bosey which dropped him into a halfway tie at even-par 70 with British Open champion Bob Charles in the $75,000 World Sc ries of Golf. Nicklaus. who outdrove his ri vals on every hole, at times by as much as 50 yards, missed his sec ond pull from less than four feet on the 18th green of the Fire stone Country Club course to drop into a tie with Charles. Their par 70 s gave them a one-stroke lead over ailing Arnold Palmer and two strokes over U.S. Open cham pion Julius Burnt. Nicklaus, Writers Have Argument AKRON, Ohio HIP!) Jack Nicklaus had a riotous argument with golf writers Saturday after the first round of the World Series of Golf because they had reported his remarks that Arnold Palmer should not have been permitted to play. Nicklaus had said that Palmer was strictly an "also-ran" in this year's major golf championships. "If this is supposed to he a contest for champions only," the pudgy Ohioan had said in refer ence to the World Series supposed ly among winners of the Masters, PGA and U.S. and British Opens, "(hen Arnie doesn't belong here." But after his 18th-hole blowup in the first round of the World Scries, in which he blew to three putts from four feet on the final hole to drop into a tic at even par 70 with British Open Cham pion Bob Charles, he challenged reporters wordily. "It made me look like the worst horse's fanny in the world." he said in a quavering voice. i"f was speaking in front of Palmer and 1 meant it in jest. But on the lath hole it upset me to hear the Chiloquin's Kuist Rebuilding Panthers By JERRY WAGGONER Herald and News Sports Editor Coach Gordon Kuist, beginning his eighth year as head man of the Chiloquin football fortunes. has quite a rebuilding job to do this season but says it will be a heartening job because the 1063i candidates are by far the most enthusiastic and coachable group he has had in those eight years. "We sure lost a lot from last year's team. But this bunch of kids really do work hard. Thcv want to play football and seem In enjoy it a lot. That means a lot in the long run," he said. Kuist has 2R out for the Pan ther squad this season and eight of them are lettermen. Somei didn't play much last year but' Lvr-:i j ...... iU.-ri.. CHILOQUIN'S EIGHT LETTERMEN These are Chil oquln't eight lettermen, back for the 1963 season to bolster the hopes of the Pantheri in the Klamath County Football League action. They are, (left to right, front row) Roger Nicholson, Oran Miller, Dennis Potter end Falls, Ore. Sunday, September S, 1963 I The pressure of shooting for the SSO.ooo first money with "only"' $15,000 for second , place and $5,000 for each of the other fin ishers told on the 23 - year-old Buckeye belter as Charles birdied the final hole with a 12-foot putt for a 36-3470. Saved By Putter Palmer, full of pain-killing pills because of a right shoulder aching' from possible bursitis, was saved by his putter on the front nine where he had six one-putt greens in firing a 35-36 71. Boros, the dead-panned Hungar ian, plodded along to a two-over-par 36-3672 on the long 7, 165 yard par-70 Firestone course. Nicklaus' collapse on the final hole was surprising because he was playing with rock-like steadi- crowd yelling for my ball to stop in the sand trap." His second shot on the final hole was to the right ol the green in front of the sand trap. It went into the trap as some in the crowd of 5.000 yelled "stop." But the ball rolled through the trap and stopped four feet from the green. The 220-pound Nicklaus accused spoils writers of "dragging up dirt" to hurt him with the fans and said that while he was quoted exactly, his tone had nut been interpreted properly. Nicklaus' reference w a s tol Palmer's victory in a playoff for the fourth spot in iie so-called World Series in the so-called nothing but a television exhibition. CROW SIDELINED ST. LOUIS iUPH - Halfback John David Crow will miss at least the first three games of the National Football League season alter being placed on the injured list by the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals announced Fri day that waivers had cleared on Crow, the third leading rusher in the team's historv. did see enough action to letter. He has some fine looking line material, but feels he will be1 hurting in the backfield. I don't think Len Weber was crying too loudly over getting Hale," Kuist said jokingly. Hale (Kim 1 was to be the big gun in the backfield for the Panthers! this season but he transferred to Henley High and Coach Len Web or was extremely happy over the move. Hale was one of the top hacksl last year and was one of the better ones in tlie league at the end of the season when he was really coming on strong. He teamed with AI DeBortoli in the closing stages as Chiloquin upset Merrill. 20-19, and Merrill went PAGE 1-C ness to that point, bombing the middle of the fairways with his driver and playing almost fault less golf. But that three-putt final green, tlie only three-putt green of the day. brought him home with a 34 3670, and left all four of them solidly in the running for Sun day's final 1 holes. Jumped Into Lead Nicklaus, hitting those long, booming drives, jumped into the lead with birdies on the first two: holes and seemed impossible to collar as he played w ith that plac id steadiness. .Nicklaus, called "Ohio Fats" by his fellow pros, outslugged the oth ers consistently off the tees and seldom wavered in his rush to the front. Charles, the lanky. 27-vear-old New Zealander who was the first: lefthander ever to win a major tournament, had a tough battle with par because he is a short hitter. But despite this, he was the only one to birdie the 625-yard, par-live 16th the monster" of the course and the only player to get a birdie three on that final hole to grab a share of the lead Matched Par Palmer, who has been suffer ing from an aching shoulder for 12 days and almost withdrew from one of the practice rounds, scram bled mightily to match par on the front nine. He bogcyed the fourth hole, sank a putt of 40 feet and two of 10 feet to save pars, and knocked in a 40-foot birdie putt on the ninth. Palmer matched par all the way on the back nine except on the short 15th where he trapped his two-iron tee shot for a bogey. Boros bogeyed the sixth when ne caugnt a trap with his ap proach and bogeyed the 13th in the same manner. He holed an 11-foot birdie putt on the 14th but then trapped his two-iron tee shot on the 230-yard, par-three 15th for a bogey. Charles, as expected, grabbed a share of the lead w ith his putter He had 27 putts for the round, while Palmer and Boros each had 20 and Nicklaus. because of those three putts on the final hole, had 30. . on to the slate Class H nnais; before losing. 1 In addition to losing DeBortoli. I Kuist also lost Tony Wilder, Hale. and linemen Greg Harris, Joe Kirk and Glen Crain. DeBortoli was the biggest loss. He was one of the finest backs aiound this area. He played in the East- West Shrine game in Pendleton a couple of weeks ago. Gene Christiansen, coach at Merrill and one of the All-Star coaches, i said that DeBortoli would have been the most outstanding back had the East won the game which they lost by a narrow margin Kuist has a good nucleus for a line. He has pretty good size in tackles Lynn Hescock and Oran Miller at WO apiece. Both are Lynn Heseoelc. The back row includes David Van Wormer, Tony DiUlio, Jim Bridge, and Don Taylor. These eight probably will be in the lineup when the Pantheri open the season Friday at Henley against the Hornets. mi" 1 " V v H 1 41 :i WATCH IT.

The guards probably will be 140 pound Roger Nicholson, a junior leltcrman and junior 165-pounder David VanWnrmer. Center prob ably will be Dennis Potter, a 160 pound letterman. He said that he lacks speed in the backfield in addition to ox- nei ienced performers. He will have rugged Don Taylor, a 150- pound senior letterman who will probably start as quarterback in Kuist's single wing attack. An oilier letterman back is senior 150-pound Jim Bridge. He played enough to letter last year. inch Froehling played his way out of the doghouse erected by U.S. Davis Cup selectors with a 6-3. 6-1, 6-4. victory over the stylish Brazilian.

One of the other probable start ing backs is junior Dan Penhall He is a 142-pound scatback and will give the Panthers needed speed. He is a good track pros pect and his speed is needed.

Promise Of Good Season Shows Through In Scramble By JERRY WAGGONER Herald and News Sports Editor Some definite promise for a better football season in 1963 showed through Saturday night at Modoc Field, despite the split ting of personnel, as the Reds held on for a 21-14 victory over tlie battling Whites in tlie annual Red and White or Chicken and Beans game. Tlie game officially opened the year for the Klamath Union Pelicans and gave Coach Bob Williams some bright hopes (or tlie coming season. But despite the good showing, and despite the fine looking prospects in tlie play ers, he knows that it won't be an easy tcason because of a gruelling schedule. Tlie first game w ill be held next Friday night at Modoc Field when the Pelicans, shoring up for that game, take on the Grants Pass Cavemen in a non-conference contest. They will meet the Cavemen later in the season in a Southern Oregon Conference game. That first game will not be an easy one as Grants Pass boasts one of the finest, if not tlie ifincst, baekficlds in tlie state with four returning boys who are very fine football players. They arc quarterback Tom Sparlin. Gary Van Koten, Terry Isabel) and Rich Ireland. The Pelicans, however, hope to match that backfield and outplay thorn in tlie line. The Pelicans showed some fine backs Saturday night. Big Mike Kitching proved to be tlie big gun, but a loud noise also was heard from little Chuck Mills, in a losing cause. Kitching was the big gainer with 129 yards in 16 carries for an average of over 8.0 per car ry. He didn't score, but did throw to IBen Kerns for the first Red touchdown of 14 yards. He set up tlie others with his bull-like running which time and again carried him over foes on the White team. Kitching's first run of the night . - l l V..,.! sn tor 4Z varas aiui ne nau another of 42. Mills, on the other hind, had less blocking than Kilchina it appeared and still he nicked uo 52 hard-earned yards in 13 totes. He scored tlie tirsl White six-pointer from one yard awav. Kern was another of Hie backs to look good, on both offense and defense. He got 29 yards running and was a terror on defense as an inside linebacker despite his small size. Snnhomore Boh Williams han dled himself well as the White alternate quarterback. He lost several yards while trying to . . . , . i,..i- ui..l.;- pass, out naa loo nine uhr-miik and his receivers were wen oihu- kelcd by the Red defense. John Parisolto. a senior quarterback, led the Reds well and got some nble assistance from junior sig nal caller Randy Smith. Coach Bob Williams seemed pleased with the showing al though he recognized several mis takes which will have to be ironed out Iwfore the Grants Pass came. The Whites rjiocKen ex ceptionally well in the seconda ry," he stated. The white hacks, however, didn't get into the sec ondary enough to really break away. "The Red defense looked good, too, and contained t h c Whites pretty well, he related. He also had some fine com ments for sophomore Glenn Mil ler who was dealing the White backs a terrible amount of trou ble all night from his defensive end position. He got stopped late in the game, though, when little Chuck Mills doubled him up on a beautiful block. He was, how ever, a lug power in the ited defensive wall along with Kerns, Terry Christiansen, who also looked very good, Steve Campbell, John Enrigtit and I Ale Hnney. The general feeling around the press box following the game was Moloney Gets 21st Victory CINCINNATI (UPH - Jim Ma- loncy pitched a four-hitter for his 21st victory Saturday night and Vada Pinson batted in three runs to lead tlie Cincinnati Reds to a 4-2 victory over the New York Mots. Maloney had a one-hit shutout for eight innings, facing only 25 batters, but the Mots knocked him out in the ninth with two runs on three hits and a walk. INSULATION 1721 Main 'lo). that with Kitching and Mills both running on the same club and the line working as a unit, the 'Peli cans could deal most teaiffs a great deal of misery this year. The running diadem of Kitching and Mills should prove some ex citing moments, too. Mills' feet never stop churning and he starts quickly. Kitching appears to be loaling. but that is his running slylc. When he finds the open ing, he can run with good speed. The Whites got the ball first and drove 60 yards in their open ing chance for the touchdown. They went the 60 6teps in eight plays for the score and got the assistance of 30 yards in penal ties by the Reds. Mills got 15 yards. Williams 26 on a run when he couldn't find a receiver Mills got the final yard for (he tally. Don Plowman booted the point for a 7-0 lead. Tlie Reds stormed right back and went 63 yards in eight plays alter a five-yard penalty. Parisol to guided the march. Kitching got his 42 yards on his first tote. Tlie opening play was a 45-yard completion from Parisolto to John Jondrzejewski to the IS but a penalty nullified it. After being stymied for three downs on the 14, Kitching faked a run and flipped a pass to Kerns in the end zone for tlie TD. Williams, a While team member, booted the point. Both pouit kickers were on the White team and they took turn about kicking. They got the second score in tlie Golds Whip Blue Team At Henley Junior fullback Bill Fischer and senior halfback LeVoy Yiiung paced the Golds ever the Illlies, 27-6, In the annual Blue Gold game Saturday night at Henley as the Hornets prep for their opener next week against Chiloquin. Coach Len Weber said that Fisher reeled off runs of 83 and 37 yards tor his pair oi touch downs while Young, one ol the finest backs In the Rogue League last year, raced 60 yards for one. The other Gpld touchdown came on a four-yard run by quarterback Gary Barker. The Blues' lone touchdown came-In the fourth quarter when quarterback Steve Rand flipped a 30-yard pass to Kim Hale, the Chiloquin transfer, for the lone TD. A Rand to Elton.Schlro pass covered 45 yards for an other Blue TD but was called hack. , Extra points tor the Golds were made by Young, Barker and Bill LePore. "I thought the defense was split pretty well, but the vet eran Gold bunch had the better defense," Weber said. "That line was anchored by John Itiggs, Don Berry and Dick Johnson.
