stopped a foot short.
KERMIT ZARLEY, the national
collegiate champion from the Uni
versity of Houston, also saw his
last putt stop short but he took
over third place with a 33-33-66.
Jerry Steelsmith, a red-haired
Californian who missed three
.championships by a total of five
strokes last year as a sophomore
on the pro tour, finished minutes
ahead of Nicklaus with a record-
tying back nine 31 for a four-way
tie at 67.
Aaron finished early and had
practically no gallery as he post
ed a 31 front nine and came in
with a 33 for the Classic’s lowest
round score since Jimmy Clark
had a 65 in 1951.
MOST OF the 18,000 spectators-
a first day Classic record —
swarmed behind Nicklaus and
Gary Player, the co-favorites.
Player, with 16 pars and two
birdies, had a 34-34-68 for a four
way tie four strokes off the pace.
Arnold Palmer, the third member
of golf’s Big Three, did not enter
the Classic this year.
Nicklaus’ 30 tied a course record
set by Walter Burkeme in 1954
and teid by Jack Burke Jr. in
1959 and Arnold Palmer in 1960.
Nicklaus three-putted the third
hole for a bogie but had birdie
putts of 12, 15, 15, 16, a and 14
feet before making the turn.
“The wind was tricky,” Nicklaus
said. “I did alright, but, I guess,
that record is rather meaningless.”

SPORTS
SECTION
FROM THE
^ideli
ineS
By Jim Butler
Barlow “Bones” Irvin, assistant athletic director who
does an excellent job of managing the finances for the athletic
department and keeping them in the black takes a lot of good
natured ribbing about being a close man with a dollar.
Last Tuesday at the A&M-Baylor dual track meet,
“Bones” was in attendance keeping a sharp eye on the stop
watches, measuring tapes and other equipment. Shortly
before the start of the running events, it was found that
the box of blank cartridges for the starter’s gun was almost
empty and another box would have to be opened. It is
rumored that “Bones” called the starter over to him and
inquired.
“Say Doctor, how are you at snapping your fingers?”
Another story is told on Mr. Irvin concerning the result
of an Aggie baseball game. An inquisitive ex asked Irvin
how the baseball game came out. “Bones” turned to the in
quisitor and replied without cracking a smile,
“Excellent, They only lost one ball.”
The urge has been present in the dingy corner of the
Batt cave, known to the world as the sports department and
to the rest of the staff as the trash barrel, to make a predic
tion on the outcome of the major league pennant races.
We would preferably like to pick the New York Mets
and the Washington Senators since this would be the best
for baseball, the best for Casey Stengle, the best for the
U. S. Congress and the worst for all the other sports writers.
However, an argument arose among the members of the
staff debating whether the Mets were really a baseball team
or a vaudeville act that got lost on the subway and wandered
into a baseball park by mistake.
So after three broken typewriters, a sports assistant
with the letters asdfghjkl embedded in his forehead and a
telephone taking the place of a light fixture, decided that
baseball forecasts would be passed up for this season.
