Arnold Palmer Far Back In British Open LYTHAM-ST. ANNES, England (UPI) — Defending champion Arnold Palmer admittedly faced “a tough job” trying to catch up with fellow American Phil Rodgers and Australia’s Peter Thomson today in the second round of the British Open golf championship. Palmer, who won this tournament the last two years, hacked his way to a 76 in Wednesday’s first round while Rodgers, a wisecracking from La Jol- " la, Calif., and four-time winner Thomson tied for. the lead with three-under-par 67 s. Only four other players broke par in their opening tour over the 6,757-yard Royal Lytham and St. Annes links. Scotland’s Tom Haliburton and southpaw Bob Charles of New Zealand posted 68s, one stroke ahead of Spain's Ramon Sota and Australia’s Kel Nagle. Jack Nicklaus, the burly U.S. Masters champion from /Columbus, Ohr%. ; waJ »aflcltecs4ith)«oi/] others at 71 and considered still a threat. However, the remaining four Americans will have to improve greatly if they hope to survive the second round cut when the field will be reduced to the low 45 and ties. Doug Sanders of Ojai, Calif., and Herman Barron of White Plains, N.Y., opened with 755. Jack Isaacs of Langley Field, Va., posted a 76 and Bob Marshall of Huntington Beach, Calif.,, came in with a 79 — the poorest score of the seven Yanks in the starting field of 120. Palmer admitted his opening round, ruined by four bogeys and two double bogies, was his worst since he took a 77 in ,the third round of this year’s U.S.' Open. K “I don’t ever recall winning after opening with a 76,” the Latrobe, Pa., shotmaker moaned. “My putter was all right and my driver was all right. The only thing wrong was the m.an behind the gun.” The popular Pennsylvanian figured he needed at least a 72 tar day just to qualify for Friday’s windup 36 holes. “It will be a tough job even qualifying if I don’t do something fast,” he said. “Spotting Rodgers and Thomson nine strokes at this stage makes the job almost impossible but I’ll give it a shot.” Softball Twin Bill At Hoagland Saturday The Three Kings softball tearrt will play the Shipshewana Filter Queens in a double header Saturday night at the Hoagland diamond, with the first game starting at 7 o'clock. < ■•V County Coon Hunters Meet Saturday Night ■-" The Adams county coon hunters will meet Saturday night at 8 o clock at the home of Raymond Roe.

Dick Stuart Leads Red Sox To 14 Win By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer New York Yankee manager Ralph Houk njay have done the Boston Red Sox a favor when he snubbed Dick Stuart for the American League All-Star team. Houk apparently not only stirred up the hottest controversy of the 19fg All-Star game but also lit a fire under the big first baseman. In any event, Stuart returned from the two-day vacation resulting from the snub with a pair of homers and five runs batted in that paced the Red Sox to a 7-4, 10-inning victory over the Minnesota Twins Wednesday night. Stuart’s second homer was a threerun, lOth-ianing wallop that ended Minnesota relief ace Bill Dailey’s string of 24 consecutive scoreless innings. Stuart's first homer ia) the fourth inning was his first roundtripper since June 20, and the two runs he knocked in were the first for him since June 28. The two homers and five runs batted in for the night increased his season totals in those departments to 19 and 55. Wins Ninth Game Dick Radatz, who was removed for a pinch-hitter in the 10th inning after shutting out the Twins on one hit for three in- . nings, received credit for his ninth . win against one loss. The victory moved the Red Sox into third ’ place and dropped the Twins into fifth. The Los Angeles Dodgers nipped ’ the New York Mets, 1-0, the Philadelphia Phillies drubbed the San [ Francisco Giants, 10-2, the Cincin- . nati Reds defeated the Chicago I Cubs, 3-1, and the Houston Colts - beat the Pittsburgh Pirates, 2-0, in the National League. ’ Stuart and Lou Clinton hit home 1 runs and Frank Malzone contri- ! btrtes an RBI-double to the Red ’ Sox’ fourth toning outburst. Bob Allison hits his 22nd homer of the , year for Minnesota in the fourth . and the Twins tied the score with ’ two more runs in the sixth. The ■ other , eight AL teams were idle. Johnny Podres pitched a three- . hitter for his fourth shutout and seventh win and batterymate John Roseboro homered to the eighth inning as the Dodgers to- , creased their NL lead to four a gaipes with their eighth victory to ’ nine games. Left-fielder Tommy j Davis saved the win by starting a game-ending double play with an electrifying catch of Frank Thomas’ ninth-inning bid for a : two-run homer. Carlton Willey was the unlucky loser for the , Mets, who have lost 11 consecutive games. ’ Pace Phils’ Attack Roy Sievers had three hits and Don Demeter, Johnny Callison and Tony Gonzalez, two each to lead ; the Phillies’ 14-hit attack. Errors ' by Jose Pagan and Willie McCov- ’ ey paved the way for two three- • run Philadelphia rallies that ! brought Cal McLish his ninth win • and Billy O’Dell his fifth defeat. McCovey and Orlando Cepeda hit homers for the Giants. Joey Jay, already a 12-game losea, flashed his 21-victory form of 1961 and 1962 by striking out 10 and yielding seven hits in 8 1-3 tontogs against the Cubs.

Major Leagues' Bonus Payments Cut Drastically NEW YORK (UPI) — High school and college baseball whiz kids have found dut that the major league giveaway program has drastically] cut down on its prizes. Bonus payments to young prospects are down approximately 75 per cent from the past few freespending seasons, a United Press International survey showed today. So far, Jeff Torborg, Rutgers University catcher, is the only SIOO,OOO bonus baby in the 1963 graduating class. The 21-year-old Torborg, who won the national collegiate batting championship with a .537 average, signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers and is playing for Albuquerque in the Texas League. Dave Bennett, younger pitching brother of the Philadelphia Phillies' Dennis Bennett, and Wally Bunker, a high school hurler from San Bruno. Calif., are next in line with $75,000 bonuses. Bennett, who pitched for the University of Oregon, signed with the Phils. Bunker collected his loot from tiie Baltimore Orioles. Bonuses Drop Off After these top three, the bo nuses drop off to around $50,000. although most youngsters are settling for SIO,OOO to $20,000 inducements to turn pro this summer. That is far short of the $125.000 to $150,000 bonanzas paid in ■ 1961 to Bob Bailey by the Pittsburgh Pirates, and to Bob Garibaldi by the San Francisco Giants last year. The big reason for the decline in bonus handouts is the firstyear draft rule, which was pushed through by the “have-not” clubs to curb such lavish spcndItng. .'' -■' : Meanwhile, the “have" clubs like the New York Yankees. Milwaukee Braves and Dodgers complain that the rule is “socialistic" and an unwarranted curb on their

Must, Be Promoted The deterrent in the rule is this: AU first-year players must be promoted to the parent club’s roster by the end of the season in which they are signed: and only one such player can be optioned to the minors during firstyear status. A first-year player not promoted to the parent club’s roster becomes subject to the December draft at price of $12,000 or SB,OOO. The Houston-Colts, for example, have several players on their roster. If they signed any*, more, they would be faced with the dilemma of overloading their 40-man roster with inexperienced talent or letting some of last year’s bonus kids go to another club at a bargain price. Other clubs find themselves in the same predicament. Result: Few clubs have gone in for large bonus spending this season.
