ST. ANNE'S, England (P)- Phil
Rodgers, a pudgy ex-Marine from
La Jolla, Calif., and Bob Charles
of New Zealand, the only top-
flight left-handed pro golfer in
the world, shot steady par fours
on the final hole yesterday and
tied for the British Open Golf
Championship.
They will play off over 36 holes
of the 6,757-yard Royal Lytham
and St. Anne's course today.
Rodgers and Charles finished
with 72-hole totals of 277, one
Palmer May
Take Layoff
ST. ANNE'S, England (P - Ar-
nold Palmer, dethroned in the
British Open, said yesterday he
might take another layoff from
golf after next week's PGA
Championship at Dallas..f
"I'm tired," he said, after he
shot a final round 76, for a 294
total, which tied for 26th place.
"I may take a rest again."
Palmer even intimated he
might not return for the British
Open next year. Reminded that
he had promised "always" to play
in the British championship so
long as he was competing, he'
said:
"I don't know whether I'll play
next year. There is some ques-
stroke over the Open record 276
posted by Arnold Palmer at Troon
last year. Palmer skied to a final
round 76 and finished at 294-17
strokes back-in his try for his
third straight championship.
Nicklaus Blows rinish
But it was Jack Nicklaus, the
Ohio strong boy and U. S. Masters
champion, who let the tournament
slip from his grasp during the
wild three-man charge down the
stretch. Nicklaus faltered on the
last two holes and finished with
278, a stroke behind the co-lead-
ers.
Nicklaus, playing ahead of
Rodgers and Charles, knocked in
a 17-foot putt for a birdie three
at the 16th hole and seehed to
have his first British Open firmly
in hand.
However,, he knocked a two-
iron over the green at the par
four 17th, fluffed his first ap-
proach and settled for a five. He
hit his drive into a bunker on the
18th and got another five.
Both Finish Strong
That left it up to Rodgers and
Charles. They matched Nicklaus'
three at the 16th, got fours on the
17th, and while the crowd of 5,000
gathered around the home green
both reached it in two.
Charles was about 35 feet away,
Rodgers only 15. Charles putted
some 30 inches past and Rodgers
left his putt nine inches short.
The 25-year-old ex-Marine put-
ted out, although the ball wobbled
on the edge for a fraction of a
second. Then Charles calmly
canned his to force the playoff.
It is the first playoff in the
British Open since 1958, when
Peter Thomson of Australia won
his fourth championship over D.
C. Thomas of England.
Rodgers had rounds of 67-69-71
and a final 69.-
Hits Course Record
Charles shot 68-72-66 and 71.
His third round 66 was listed as a
course record, since the links has
been lengthened and toughened
since Thomson shot a 63 in 1958..
Nicklaus had 71-67-70 and a
final 70 for his 278.
Kel Nagle of Australia, who
defeated Palmer by one stroke in
the 1960 Open, finished with 283
for fourth place.
Thomson, only a stroke off the
pace set by Charles after 54 holes,
skied to a 78 and finished fifth
with 285.
Player Finishes 10 Back
Gary Player of South Africa,,
the 1959 winner, finished with 287
-10 strokes off the leaders.
Rodgers was highly pleased
with his play. The perky, porky
ex-Marine who won the Texas
Open earlier this year, said no
matter what happens in the play-
off, "I want to come back and
play in the British Open again."
He said he figured at the 15th
hole, where Nicklaus three-putted
from 12 feet for a five, that he
had a chance. "I thought if I
could finish 3-4-4 I'd catch him,
and I did."
Charles, who is 27 and won the
Houston Open this year, has
never threatened in the British
Open before.

FIND OUT SUNDAY:
It May Not Be Baseball
But It Sure Is Crieket
By CHARLIE TOWLE
Co-Sports Editor
Ferry Field will be the scene of one of the rarer sporting eventst
in the United States this Sunday at 2 p.m.-a cricket match.
The Michigan Cricket Club is hosting an aggregation of like
inclined gentlemen from Cleveland for the second annual Michigan-
Cleveland match.
Last year the local club engaged in two matches, winning its
Cleveland game but losing to a Windsor squad.
Fasten Your Safety Belts
In trying to explain the game of cricket to an American, the Eng-
lishman usually'starts out by pointing out that cricket is "rather like
that game you play here in the Colonies-yfu know the one you see
on the tube during the summer." Besides immediately alienating the
audience by not knowing the name of baseball, this statement also
points out one of the more established facts known on this side of the
Atlantic about the sport-Englishmen will never wholly understand
baseball and Americans will never fully comprehend cricket.
For those who are inclined to attempt? the solution of insoluble
puzzles, however, this Sunday's match will offer a fine opportunity to
further develop this psychosis. Anyone tempted to visit the Ferry Field
confines had better pack a lunch. Cricket matches are able to, and
often do, hang on for a matter of days.
Bring Cushions
Jagdish Saluja, spokesman for the local group, predicts, how-
ever, that Sunday's encounter will last four sun-filled hours.
In attempting to solve insoluble problems, it is always more frus-
trating if there are a few mystifying clues laid out. With this in mind
I will draw a few "red herrings" across your path (besides, I can't
figure the game out myself).
The clues:
1) Forget the term "field." The cricket playing area stretches
radially out from the wickets and encompasses all playable surface
area in the immediate neighborhood.
Six Acres of Field
The average cricket field is an area of six acres in a circular
shape having a diameter of 180 yards. As a result there is no such
thing as a ball being hit in foul territory.
2) The cricket team consists of 11 men. The bowler and wicket
keeper correspond to the pitcher and catcher in baseball. The remain-
ing nine men are termed the point, cover point, mid off, mid on, deep
mid off, deep mid on, short slip, third man, and the square leg. As to
who or what these men are-well, the last three named are not Bri-
gitte Bardot, Michael Rene or Captain Hook.
3) Two men are at bat at the same time, standing at opposite
wickets. Each man gets six hits on the ball. If in these six hits he
scores six runs, this is termed a home run. There are 11 outs in an
inning and two innings in a match. To score a run the hitter and his
partner must exchange wickets after the hitter has struck the ball in
defending his wickets. It is not necessary that the batters run ,on
every hit, however.
Hit Wicket
4) The wicket consists of three posts in the ground, 42" apart on
top, which are placed to spindle-shaped "bails." The bowler tries to
hit the wicket with the ball, which is one of the methods of scoring an
out. There are two wickets placed 22 yards apart.
5) Don't bother asking questions at Ferry Field this Sunday. It
will be every spectator for himself.
The starting eleven (and finishing eleven since there is no sub-
stitution) for the Michigan club, which has around 25 members, are
Dinesh Kamdar, Datta Kharbas, Push Bindarsingh, Yatish Shah, Raj
Nagori, Amar Badhuri, Sudhir Sabkar, Mohan Hede, Prem Pathak,
Vilas Mane, and (who let him in?) Ron Palmer.
The first 10 players are natives of Indi% which despite some past
differences have out-Britished the British in many customs, and the
last an intrepid, considering his teammates, Englishman.
