Arnold Palmer i i Determined To ; Win U.S. Open WASHINGTON (DPI) — ArI nold Palmer today was the most determined man on the scene —« two days before the start of die 64th US. Open golf championship. Amte. winner of the Masters, really wants this one to keep . alive his hopes for completing a pro “grand slam,” including the British Open and United States PGA crowns. “I haven’t thought of anything but this tournament since the day I won the Masters,” said Palmer, greatest moneywinner in golf history. “For three months. I've put aside everythin else. I have planned and conditioned and I want this one more than any other tournament so far.” Mentally, nes right and his game is falling into place. “But it won’t mean a thing if I get out there on Thursday morning and the putts don’t roll .in for me,” he conceded, “I fed confident about everything else.” In a field of 134 pros and 16 amateurs. Palmer is the man to beat with PGA champ Jack Nicklaus a close second in the eyes of most of the others. Ken Venturi, an a comeback with two high finishes in his last two starts, took his first look at the Congressional Country Club’s record long course of 7.863 yards with its par 354 S 70 and said it’s the type of course that doesn't favor any particular type player. But Sou* Africa's Gary Player insisted it favored the big hitter and that would give Palmer and Nicklaus the edge. Palmer beat a sudden thunderstorm that at least cooled off the sun-baked fairways late Monday, turning in a par 70 on his fourth tour of the layout since the Masters. Sam Snead also had a 70. using his old regulation putter rather than his new croquet-style mallet, but most of the other, entrants merely were charting the course in casual rounds and few revealed their scores.

Bond Is Star As Coifs Win Over Cardinals By MILTON RICKMAN DPI Spurts Writer The first thing you have to understand about big, good-na-tured Walt Bond is that he’U probably never win the moot valuable player award. Nor is he the tnost likely candidate to win a batting title, but he’d probably win bands down if the Houston Colts ever decided to conduct a contest for the beat-liked player to their club. Need a favor? Ask Bond. If there’s a tough job to be done with no glory attached, ask Bond. He’s the kind who does thinffg liito that gladly. “I may not be a Mickey Mantle out there in the outfield,” he concedes, “but I’m not going to embarrass anybody.” Bond isn’t exactly another Mantle at the plate, editor, as you can tell by one quick look at his .251 average although he has a knack for coming up with timely base hits. t Like Monday night, for example’, when he drove in four runs with a two-run s ingle in the sixth inning and another tworun single in the seventh to help the Colts come from behind to beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 9-3. Bobbie Knocked Out Until the sixth inning Monday night. Cardinal starter Glen »Hobbie had held the Colts to one hit. Thanks largely to Bond however, and Bob As promonte, who. hit his fourth home run in the past seven days, Houston kayoed Hobbie with a four-run burst m the sixth and then added four more runs in the seventh off southpaw Jack Spring, obtained from the Cubs earlier to the day as part of a six-man deal. Jim Owens, Houston’s third pitcher, held the Cardinals hitless over the last three innings for has second victory. Only one other game was played in the National League, with the San Francisco Giants defeating the Cincinnati Reds, 6-5, to move wishing eight percentage points of the idle first place Phillies. The Chicago White Sox bounced back into first place to the American League with a 9-1 triumph over the Baltimore Orioles, while the Washington Senators downed the Los Angeles Angels,’ • 3-2. Rain washed out the Minnesota-Cieveland contest only other game scheduled. Rookie third baseman Jim Ray Hart, whose error in the top of the ninth enabled the Reds to tie the score at 5-5, atoned by singling home the winning run far the Giants in the bottom of the frame. O’Dell Gets Win Hart connected off Ryne Duran, who had taken over after laser Bill Henry (1-1) bad walked two men. Billy O’Dell (2-1) was the winner. Deron Johnson hit his sixth homer for Cincinnati. The White Sox snapped their six-game losing streak by scoring seven rims in the first inning off Oriole pitchers Robin Roberts (4-4) and Harvey Haddix. Pete Ward, A1 Weis and Jimmy McNertney each drove in two runs during the rally. Haddix went on to strike out 11 men over the final 8 2-3 innings but it was too late. Rookie Fred Talbot went the first three innings for the White Sox but was farced from (he game when a smash off Gino Cimoli’s bat sltruck him on the left leg. Eddie Fisher held the Orioles to five hits thereafter for his third victory against one defeat. Don Rudolph registered his first win for Washington since * being brought back from the minors although he needed Ronnie Kline’s help after Joe Adcock homered for the Angels with two out in the ninth. The Senators broke a 1-1 tie inthe seventh when they scored two runs off lose* Dean Chance (4-3) on a walk, Dick Phillips’ double and Ed Brinkman’s single. John Kennedy’s fifth homer in the sixth gave Washington its first run. j Wabash Valley Golf I Club Is Now Open The Wabash Valley Golf Club, at Rainbow Lake, near Geneva, opened officially Saturday and Sunday, with 66 and 65 players each day over the weekend, it was learned here today. The new course, nine holes, is a little rough, as rhost courses are the first year, but is in good shape considering the dry weather in the south part of. the county, where no rainfall of more than one-half inch has been received for some time, and where com stands are the poorest in several years.

Tony Ehrsam Hurt In Baseball Game Tony Ehrsam, all-around Adams Central athlete, has been released from the Clinic hospital in Bluffton after suffering a broken arm to a Connie Mack league baseball game to that city Sunday. Ehrsam, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Glen ftorlsam, of 205 E. Jackson suffered the break while sliding into second base during the game between the National Oilers and City Light Sunday afternoon. Fortunately, the break was in the left arm, about an inch above the youth’s wrist. Ehrsam is right-handed, and a talented baseball pitcher. He had hurled the first inning of the contest, won by bis club, the Oilers, 1-0, but suffered the broken bone in the last of the first inning. He was taken to the Blufttbn Clinic, where the arm was set in a cast that doctors expect will remain on the arm from four to six weeks. The break waß nothing serious, however, and isn’t expected to affect Ehrsam next winter on the hardwood for the Flying Jets. He was a starting guard last season in basketball, pilches for the high school team and also competes in track. Cubs And Cardinals Make Player Trade CHICAGO (UPI) — The Chicago Cubs gambled today that Stronger pitching from starter Ernie Broglio and reliever Bobby Shantz would make up for the loss of speedster Lou Brock in right field. Broglio and Shantz were obtained Monday frorq St. Louis, along with outfielder Doug Clemens, in return for Brock and two pitchers, lefthander Jack Spring and righthander Paul TVoth, in the secoind deal between the clubs in less than two weeks. Shantz, Cubs head Coach Bob Kennedy said, would get “about 15 minutes” 40 get ready and then he’ll be on the firing line in relief, while Broglio, who has tt w !W record for the Cards this bfatoon with a 3.53 earned run average, will start soon, perhaps in the Cubs’ fourth game coining up. - ,“It depends on when he pitched last," Kennedy said, “but he’ll break into the starting rotation right away.” Loss of Brock, who has started in right field in each of the Cqbs’ 52 games this season, with a .251 batting average; will be solved sometime soon by either Clemens or rookie Billy Ott, who wns called up from the Salt Lake City farm team with a .305 batting average. u ■ Major Leagues AMERICAN LEAGUE W L Pet.

VISIT RURAL (Continued from Pago One) sort of expected to see red-skinn-ed savages running around in feathers and buckskins. Lovely Gardens Instead, we found a small adobe town with some of the lovliest gardens we had seen. Driving through, we stopped on the other , side, and walked back through the town. Dahlias and Zinnias, both native to Mexico, and Cannas of all shades, abounded. On approaching the school building, "Eseuela Centenario,” T’ 1 peeked inside, and was, of course, spotted instantly by a daydreaming youngster. The principal of die school. Prof. Paula Torres, came over to the doorway, and by gestures invited me in. On entering, I was surprised that all the children immediately rose, and wecomed me to their school. I returned their greeting in my best (?) Spanish, which greatly pleased them. The rest of our group also entered. and we took several pictures. TJien the principal opened some locked exhibit rooms, and showed: us the exquisite handicraft work that her pupils had done. It was really as good as anything we had seen on the market. Leave Pictures Then I got out my Polaroid camera, and pleased everyone by taking a number of pictures, leaving most of them at the school. We stayed about half an hour or more, enjoying the young students’ hospitality, and the friendship of the teachers and director of the school. It was late when w«y returned, and we had only one day left in Mexico, which we spent resting, and getting last-minute souvenirs, packing, and making certain we could crowd everything into our car. It was a tight fit, but on Friday we finally fitted everything into the car, from bull-horns to wall masks, and a huge copper plate reproduction of the ancient Maya calendar, and prepared to leave. We found the road to the border much better by daylight than we had imagined it to be, having tarried for supper several hours on the way in at Sabinas Hidalgo. The trip back was relatively uneventful, and we did little sightseeing, conserving our ener-

gy for driving. The first night • we arrived in Dallas about p. m., and Ralph and I took the children out to “Six Flags Over Texas” again, but we were too tired to really enjoy it. Earlier, when we asked Barbara what she had liked most, she had replied, "Six Flags Over Texas”—the name of the huge Disneyland-type historical amuse- • ment park at Dallas. We had had a wonderful time there on the trip south to Monterrey. Saturday found us speeding through northern Texas, following a great rainstorm across Oklahoma, and arriving in St. Louis, Mo., about 6:30 p. m. We left early Sunday morning, everyone, and especially the children, quite anxious to get home. Tension Mounts By the time we turned off route' 66 onto highway 24, tension was mounting. About 40 miles from the Indiana border we finally got radio station WOWO, and heard our first familiar voice, as Jack Underwood talked about Adams County Trailer Sales. By the time we reached the Indiana line, the kids asked at every town if we were in Decatur yet, so we just stopped long enough to pick up hamburgers and French fries at a roadside stand in Logansport before continuing. That was a far cr£ from the steaks and crepe suzettes of a few nights before, but tasted just as good to the tired travelers ! And so, at 1:20 p. m. we arrived safely home, 4,001.4 miles of driving. We used one quart of oil, and added some water to the radiator during the trip, and otherwise had no troubles. We were unanimous in feeling that the children had added a great deal to the trip, making it more interesting for all of us. Baby sitters were available on notice at our hotel, if we had desired them, but we never used them. And the one night we went out for dinner, and worried, we learned later that the children had gone to sleep on their own before 9:30, earlier than most of the nights when they had been with us! What did we learn? Most of all, we learned that our neighbors to the «outh are wonderral people, with a thrilling history and interesting customs and a marvelous country. We all hope to go back some day, -top!
