Arnold Palmer Top Choice To Win PGA Title AKRON, Ohio (UPI) Arnold Palmer and 185 “darttforses” tee off today and in the 42nd annual Professional Golfers Assn, championship. t Palmer is the 44 top choice to win this four-day chase over the rolling hills and hollows of the Firestone Country Club and complete the greatest grand 'slam in modern golfing history. The Pennsylvania golden boy with the steely arms and the poker-faced approach already this year has swept through to victory in the U.S. Open .and the coveted Masters. Winning this one would give him a “slafii” comparable and — some pros insist — even better than Bobby Jones’ sweep of the British and U.S. Opens and amateurs in 1930. Wall, Souchak 'Threats - — His -two greatest threats, according to the oddsmakers, are Mike Souchak and lithe, deadly Art Wall, both rated at 6-1. Ydung Ken Venturi is ranked at 8-1 while defending champion Bob Rosburg, oft-tempera mental Tommy Bolt and those two old favorites—twotime winner Ben Hogan and triple winner Sammy Snead—are aU at 10-1. Back of them at 12-1 come Gene Littler, Dow Finsterwald and Julius Boros, while at 15-1 you had Cary Middlecoff and Doug Sanders. Hie rest of the darkhorse field was from 25-l~ to “but” because Firestone Country Club, with its wire-tough rough and its arduous 7,185 yards playing to a deadly par of 35-35—70, was believed too difficult to conquer. Estimates of what the ultimate winner would have to shoot to win it ranged from even par 280 all the way

Palmer Has Edge It was going to take a long, straight hitter to come out on top, the pros , contended. This gave Palmer the big edge, for he was drilling his tee shots out of sight and on a clothesline as he warmed up with a four under par 66 even though he professed to be “extremely tired” after playing in the Canada Cup in Ireland and the British Open at St. Andrews. The four-daty divot carnival starts at 7 ajm., e.d.t. and after 18-hole rounds today and Friday, the field will be narrowed to the low 90 and ties for Saturday’s third round. Then, after that stretch, the low 60 and ties will go out in Sunday’s finale. By that time, the pros contended, It woQld be Palmer againstthe field in a “come and Catch me” runaway.

White Sox And Braves Putting Heat On Leaders By FRED DOWN United Press International The two teams the experts said might be over the hill may yet Ito over the top in the major league pennant races. They’re the Milwaukee Braves and the Chicago White Sox and today their blazing mid-summer streaks are putting the heat on the front-running Pittsburgh Pirates and New York Yankees. ’ The Braves* seven-game winning streak has moved them to within a mere half-game of the Pirates in the National League while the White Sox* five-game drive has lifted them to within one game <A the Yankees in the American League. The Braves achieved their longest winning streak of the year when Warren Spahn seven-hitted the St. Louis Cardinals, 3-0, Wednesday night and the White Sox made it five in a row when Roy Sievers’ three-run homer powered them to a 7-1 decision over the Boston Red Sox. Dodgers Beat Pirates The White Sox’ cause received a solid boost when the Cleveland Indians downed the Yankees, 8-6, and the Braves advanced a full game when the Los Angeles Dodgers out-scrambled the Pirates, 7-5, in 11 innings. Glen Hobbie’s two-hitter gave the Chicago Cubs a 4«0 victory but the Cincinnati Reds won the second game of the twi-nighter, 4-3, and the San Francisco Giants defeated the Philadelphia Phillies, 3-1, in the other National League games. The Washington Senators topped the Detroit Tigers, 8-6, and the Kansas City Athletics nipped the Baltimore Orioles, 4-3, in other American League activity. Spahn, who started the season in low gear like most of his teammates, reached the halfway point in his bid for his 11th 20-win season with the aid of solo homers by Hank Aaron and Joe Adcock. It was the 39-yearold left-hand-er’s 49th shutout and 277th victory in the majors. Ernie Broglio suffered his fifth loss for the Cardinals. Baumann Wins Sixth Frank Baumann shut out the Red Sox over the last five innings to win his sixth game tor the White Sox, who tagged Bill Monbouquette for six hits and tour runs in 3 1-3 innings. Al Smith also homered for the White Sox while Frank Ma Hone had three hits tor the Red Sox. It was the 10th win in 13 games for the defending American League champions. The Dodgers won out in their three and a half-hour struggle with the Pirates when rookie outfielder Tommy Davis hit a tworun homer off Elroy Face in the 11th. Hal Smith’s second homer of the game tied the score for, the Pirates in the ninth and both teams scored in the 10th before Davis’ winning hit. Jimmy Piersail and Harvey Kuenn hit homers and Dick Stigman choked off a Yankee rally in the eighth inning to give the. Indians one victory in their threegame series. Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris homered tor the Yankees, Maris’ 31st in the Yankees’ 82nd game putting him 12 games ahead of Babe Ruth’s record pace. — Spoils Perfect Game Hobbie had a perfect game until Wally Post opened Cincinnati’s eighth inning with a clean single. Hobbie then went on to gain his ninth victory. Post also ruined rookie Jim Brewer’s major league starting debut with r three-run homer that enabled Don Newcombe to win his fourth game for the Reds in the nightcap. Sam Jones, aided by Johnny Antonelli in the ninth, beat the Phillies for the fifth time this season. and raised his record to 12-9. Bob Schmidt had two hits and drove in a run to lead the Giants’ six-hit attack. Bill Short suffered his' seventh loss. The Senators,, went Into fifth place In the AL as Faye Throneberry drove in five runs witti a double and two singles. Don Lee gained his fifth win for the Senators, who have scored U victories in their last 14 games. The loss dumped Detroit into sixth place. Ray Herbert scattered' 11 hits and Marv Throneberry hit his seventh homer for the Athletics, who dealt Milt Pappas his seventh setback. Herbert, who hadn’t won since June 22, yielded a homer to Gene Stephens and was in constant trouble, but was aided by two key double plays. •' '■ ,' W,A tbM/ Y ' fohrTt ftpr.

(UPI) —A collegiate football' squad of 44 players from 26 states reported today to head coach Otto Graham to open drills for the All-Star football game with the Baltimore Cotts at Chicago’s Soldier Field Aug. 12.

But his first punch was the deciding blow. "I was watching for him to use his left hook,” Ray said. “So when he got set to throw ft, I put my right over it and hit him on the chin.” It was a long straight right and it hit Ryan as he was backing away, but right on the jaw. He sagged to the floor and ft took the count of five before he was on his feet. Though, referee Stanley Berg kept him out of action for another thre’e seconds, he wasn’t ready then. Ray moved in quickly with a series of jabs with both hands and then drove Ryan against the ropes with another right. Before he could hit th£ canvas, Ray was swarming over him and Berg halted the bout “I didn’t know anything from that first punch until they had me in the corner,” Ryan said. “I was doing pretty well until I got hit.” Jt was the second time 'Ryan has been knocked out in 29 pro fights, and his fourth loss. He had won 23 fights, scoring 17 knockouts. Ray gained his eighth win by knockout and his 19th victory in 35 bouts. — Major Leaaue Leaders By United Press International National League Player A Club G.AB R. H. Pct. Mays.
