I1, NEW STYLES FIRST AT WILD'S I? {NL Race Wide Open By The Associated Press The Minnesota Twins open de- fense of their league crowns to- day as the big league season gets rolling with an eight-game pro- gram following yesterday's opener at Washington. Professional'. oddsmakers split their votes between the Twins and the Baltimore Orioles as winners in the American League pennant race. Opening day opposition for the champion Twins is provided by the erstwhile lowly Kansas Ath- letics at Minnesota's Metropolitan Stadium. The caliber of their op- ponent doesn't keep the Twins from approaching the '66 debut with crusade-like fervent. "We know that the best thing for us to do is to step out front early and stay there," explained Manager Sam Mele. "We have the winning habit and we hope to repeat." The New York Yankees, who hope to make people forget their 4 sixth-place finish of 1965. host the contending Detroit Tigers. The. Yanks are cheered by Mickey, Mantle's return to the starting lineup after a long period of re- covery from surgery on his right shoulder. Johnny Keane, Yankee manager, said of his opposition, "Detroit seems to have the best lineup of everyday players with a strong- armed pitching staff." League Lineups Kansas City Hunter (8-8) at Min- nesota Grant (21-7) or Pascual (9-3) 2:30 p.m., 27,000.

Tiger Manager Charlie Dressen reported, "I feel five or six teams will be in it and I am confident that the Tigers will be one." Baltimore Orioles, strengthened by the addition of slugging Frank Robinson in an off-season trade, open against the Boston Red Sox in Boston. Oriole manager Hank Bauer predicted, "I see it as a team fight to the wire. In the top five you've got Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Minnesota and us." Eddy Stanky's Chicago White Sox, the champs of the spring training season, open against the California Angels in Comiskey Park. Stanky commented, " I 'do think we have an outstanding chance. Our team will rise and fall with its pitching." By The Associated Press The Los Angeles Dodgers, who are hesitatingly picked to repeat as National League champs, will battle the Houston Astros today at Chavez Ravine. The season could be a long one for the Dodgers since most oddsmakers see the race de- veloping into a wide-open affair with the San Francisco Giants, At- lanta Braves and Cincinnati Reds contending for the pennant. The World Champion Dodgers will have Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale sitting on the bench as they make their season debut. Dodger manager Walt Alston does not feel that either pitcher is ready to start. He commented,. "I look for a very close race, I have to be op- timistic. We aren't worried about Koufax' elbow like we were last season.. Leo Durocher, Chicago Cub men- tor, returns to the game after a ten-year absence wheni the Cubs take on the San Francisco Giants in Candlestick Park. Giant mana- ger Herman Franks remarked, "I, expect .our Giants to be knocking on the pennant door. Look for the Cubs to move up a notch or two this year under that new manager they've got.." MudCat Grant and Sam Mle The new-look St. Louis Cardin- als get their youth movement un- derway in Busch Stadium against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Cards were the hottest team in spring training, winning 18 and losing 9, and capturing 15 of their last 18 exhibition games. But they aren't rated a contender because of inexperience and question marks caused by trades. Phillie manager Gene Mauch is sending ex-Cardinals Dick Groat and Bill White against their old mates. A capacity crowd at Atlanta is expected to turn out to watch the Braves take on the Pittsburgh Pirates. By coincidence a decision is expected to be handed down in Wisconsin's anti-trust suit against baseball today. The transplanted Braves are co-defendants in the suit with the National League.

Frank Howard's two-run homer in the sixth inning had given Pete Richert a 2-1 edge but the In-, dians came back in the ninth and won with the help of a pair of two-run singles by Vic Davalillo and Max Alvis.. The vice-president, subbing for President Johnson as the man to SPORT SHORTS: Nicklaus Rallies in Playoff To Capture Masters Again throw out the first pitch, leaped to his feet and cheered when Howard's smash hit the left field foul line marker, about 25 feet above the ground and only fair by some eight inches. Ken Mc- Mullen, who had singled, scored ahead of him. But the Indians smashed back with one out in the ninth. Larry Brown walked and Dick Howser ran for him. Jim Landis' pinch double, then a walk tc pinch hitter by Chico Salmon off relief pitcher Ron Kline, loaded the bases. Davalillo's single scored Howser, and Alvis and both Sal- mon and Davalillo moved up on an error. Alvis then hit his two- run single.

HomeRun-Washington, Howard, CINCINNATI -A steady rain that started about noon washed out Cincinnati's 1966 National League baseball opener against the New York Mets yesterday, marking the first time since 1913 that the Reds have had to post- pone a season opener. The game immediately was re- scheduled for 1:30 p.m. (EST) to- day, an open date for both clubs. The weatherman had forecast the rain but hardy fans, accustom- ed to Cincinnati phenomenal.

SIm State Street t n the Campus OPEN TONIGHT TIL 8:30 By The Associated Press AUGUSTA-Thunderclap drives and two mighty putts gave Jack Nicklaus an easy playoff victory over . Tommy Jacobs and Gay Brewer, Jr., last night and made him the first man in history to win two Masters golf titles in a row. The golfing Goliath from Co- lumbus, who rallied on the final holes to tie for first place Sunday at a 288, unleashed a two-under- par 70 that beat Jacobs by two shots and the glassy-eyed Brewer by eight. Jacobs shot par 72, and Brewer 78. The handsome, 31-year-old Ja- cobs, a pro for 10 years, started ,with a 35-foot birdie putt on the first hole and stayed with Nick- laus-almost shot for shot - through nine. Then, inch by inch, he had to bow before the strong onslaught of the driving Nicklaus. The shell-shocked Brewer, ap- parently still amazed by his three- putt on the 72nd green Sunday that robbed him of a clear-cut title, never mustered a serious challenge. Big Three Nicklaus, in winning ,thus pre- served the modern day domina- tion of the Big Three-Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Gary Player- who now have won this tourna- ment eight times in a row. Palmer, the heavy advance fav- orite, tied with Doug Sanders for fourth at 290 and Player, off his game, finished well back at 299. Nicklaus started the tournament with a 68, then fell back to a 76 and a pair of 72's in this strange event which \saw players blowing lr. the title rather than winning it. The 288 score was the second highest ever for a winner. Nicklaus went to the front for the first time at the 10th when Ja- cobs bogeyed again with a weak chip. From then on Nicklaus was rarely in serious trouble. Jack increased h7is advantage to two strokes at the 11th-a lead he never lost-when he rolled in a downhill putt of 25 feet. NBA All-Star Team NEW YORK-Wilt Chamberlain of the Philadelphia 76ers, the league's Most Valuable Player, and Rick Barry of the San Francisco Warriors, the Rookie of the eYar, were named yesterday on the 1966 National Basketball Association All-Star team. Three repeaters from 1965, Os- car Robertson and Jerry Lucas of the Cincinnati Royals and Jerry West of the Los Angeles Lakers, rounded out the first team picked by a vote of 86 sports writers and sportscasters in the nine NBA ci- ties. Three Boston Celtics, Bill Rus- sell, John Havlicek and Sam Jones, were named to a second team along with Hal Greer of Phila- delphia and Gus Johnson of the Baltimore Bullets. Those chosen on the first team each will receive $200. The sec- ond team players get $100 each. None of the players received a perfect score of 9.000 in the vot- ing, in which each league city was accorded a full vote to equalize the balloting. Robertson came closest to a per- feet score with 8.916. He missed by one individual vote of the 86 cast. STUDENT P00K SGRVICG buys allIbooks* 1215 South U. 761-0700 * Except Se rbo-Croat-tan Books. (By the authorof "RallyRound theFlag,Boy "Dobie Gillis,"e.) ROOMMATES REVISITED This morning's mail brought a letter from a student at a prominent Western university (Princeton). "Dear Sir," he writes. "In a recent column you said it was possible to get along with your roommate if you try hard enough. Well, I'd like to see anyone get along with my roommates Mervis Trunz (for that is his name) practices the ocarina all night long, keeps an alligator, wears knee-cymbals, and collects airplane tires. I have tried everything I can with Mervis Trunz, but nothing works. I am desperate. (signed) Desperate." Have you, dear Desperate, really tried everything? Have you, for example, tried a measure so simple, so obvious, that it is easy to overlook? I mean, of course, have you of- fered to share your PersonnaO Super Stainless Steel Blades with Mervis Trunz? To have a friend, dear Desperate, you must be a friend. And what could be more friendly than sharing the bounty of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades? Who, upon en- joying the luxury of Personna, the nickless, scrapeless, tug- less, hackless, scratchless, matchless comfort of Personna, the' ease and breeze, the power and glory, the truth and beauty of Personna-who, I say, after such jollies could harden his heart against his neighbor? Nobody, that's who -not even Mervis Trunz-especially not today with the new Personna Super Blade bringing us new highs in speed, comfort, and durability. And here is still a further bonus: Personna is available both in Double Edge style and Injec-, tor style.

In fact, as roommate problems go, it is pretty small potatoes. Compare it, for example, to the clas- sic case of Basil Metabolism and E. Pluribus Ewbank. Basil and E. Pluribus, roommates at a prominent East- ern university (Oregon) were at an impassable impasse. Basil could study only late at night, and E. Pluribus could not stay awake past nine p.m. If Basil kept the lights on, the room was too bright for E. Pluribus to sleep. If E. Pluri- bus turned the lights off, the room was too dark for Basil to study. What to do? Well sir, these two intelligent American kids found an answer. They got a miner's cap for Basil! Thus, he had enough light to study by, and still the room was dark enough for E. Pluribus to sleep. It must be admitted, however, that this ingenious solu- tion had some unexpected sequelae. Basil got so enchanted with his miner's cap that he switched his major from 18th Century poetry to mining and metallurgy. Shortly after graduation he had what appeared to be a great stroke of luck: while out prospecting, he discovered what is without question the world's largest feldspar mine. This might have made Basil very rich except that nobody, alas, has yet dis- covered a use for feldspar. Today Basil, a broken man, squeezes out a meagre living as a stalagmite in Ausable Chasm. Nor has E. Pluribus fared conspicuously better. Once Basil got the miner's cap, E. Pluribus was able to catch up on his long-lost sleep. He woke after nine days, refreshed and vigorous-more vigorous, alas, than he realized. It was the afternoon of the Dean's tea. E. Pluribus stood in line with his classmates, waiting to shake the Dean's hand. At Barron's "HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE STUDENT DRAFT DEFERMENT TEST" by Samuel C.
