MATHEMATICAL PRECISION: Harris Leads Amateur Golf Tourney DES MOINES, Iowa ({-Labron Harris, playing only as well as he had to, led a small army of candi- dates for the United States Ama- teur golf title into the second round yesterday over the pinched fairways of the demanding Wa- konda Club course. The bespectacled mathematics student at Oklahoma State Uni- versity, shooting as precisely as if he were demonstrating a prob- lem in his statistical course, de feated Bill Cowardin Jr., of New- port News, Va., 8 and 6. He sank one putt of 25 feet and another of 15 but missed six others of less than 10 feet. Still in the running for the 1963 title with Harris after the first round of action over the 6,896 yards of the oak-walled course, where par is 36-36-72, are such threats as Deane Beman, Steve Spray, Dick Sikes, Charlie Coe, John Lotz, Dale Morey and Billy Joe Patton. They triumphed in the congest- ed first round that was more than an hour behind schedule because players took walks to neighboring hummocks to find their way to the green. There are blind shots on two-thirds of the holes. Seated on the sidelines with first round byes were Downing Gray of Pensacola, Fla., the beat- en finalist of a year ago; Bob Gardner of Montclair, N.J., five times the New York Metropolitan I-M Officials There will be a meeting of all men interested in officiating I-M touch football at the In- tramural Sports Bldg. at 5:00 Thursday. king, and Homero Blancas of Houston, who gained the sixth round in this tourney in 1962. A trio of Walker Cuppers was among the opening day's losers. Eliminated were Charlie Smith of U I Gastonia, N.C., Dr. Edgar Upde- graww of Tucson, Ariz., and Bill Hyndman of Huntingdon Valley, Pa. Also eliminated were Merrill Carlsmith, the U.S. Senior cham- pion from Hilo, Hawaii, and Bob Lunn, the 18-year-old San Fran- ciscan who is the National Public Links champion. In Tuesday's second round Har- ris will meet John D. McKey Jr., of Orlando, Fla., who went to the fifth round a year ago. Another 18-hole round is booked for Tuesday with two 18-hole matches scheduled for the sur- vivors on both Wednesday and Thursday. Friday's semifinals will be over 36 holes as will the final on Saturday. Harris was two under par for the 12 holes played and bested Cowardin, the Virginia Intercol- legiate champion, by 10 strokes. The champion picked up half of his huge margin in the first six holes-the area dubbed Assassin'sj Alley and where experts say thel title will be won or lost. Beman built up a two-hole' cushion in this same stretch as did Coe while both Patton and Sikes were no better than even after their safari through the ter- rifying stretch. Beman, who said he is playing better than he did when he won this title in 1960, ousted Richard Latimer of Washington, D.C., 7 and 5. Patton conquered Arthur Hudnutt of Elyria, Ohio, the 1962 Western champion, 3 and 2. Coe, seeking this title a third time had to spurt to beat Bill Castleman, the oilman who now lives in White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., 3 and 1. The two collegiate 'champions, Sikes of the University of Arkan- sas and the NCAA, and Spray of Eastern New Mexico University and the NAIA, took different routes to the victory column, Sikes downed Jerry Greenbaum of Atlanta, 3 and 2, and com- plained, "The only putt I made all day was one I didn't need." Spray, a member at Wakonda, stopped Martin J. Bohen of Las Vegas, Nev., 5 and 4 after building up a 5-hole edge before the turn. day. McKinley, the current Wimble- don kingpin from Trinity Univer- sity, nevertheless will be seeded first here with Osuna No. 2. Tourney Opens The tournament opens Wednes- day with qualifying matches among 16 less nationally-known Wrestling Team All candidates for the varsity and freshman wrestling teams will meet in the wrestling room in the Intramural Bldg. tomor- row afternoon at 4:15. players. The eight survivors of that first day action will match shots with such international stars as Osuna, McKinley, Palafox, Ham Richardson of Dallas and youth- ful but potent Cliff Richey of Dal- las. LONDON - World auto racing champion Jim Clark said he had been summoned to appear before an Italian magistrate Monday morning, within 12 hours of win- ning his crown, but had decided not to stay on in Monza, Italy, because of travel commitments. The 27-year-old "Flying Scot" called a press conference on his return to London to make some bitter remarks about Italian po- lice. Clark Quizzed Clark, who won Sunday's Ital- ian Grand Prix and with it the world championship, had barely taken off his racing helmet when he was quizzed by police about the 1961 Monza race disaster in which 16 persons died. "I thought it was all finished," he said. "I told the police inquiry a year ago all I knew about the Monza business. "It seems they are intent on finding a culprit for the accident." Clark said he had a clear con- science about the 1961 disaster. German driver Wolfgang Von Trips in a Ferrari was among those killed when his car plowed into the crowd. The Lotus car driven by Clark had been in a slight collision with the Ferrari just before it spun into the crowd. He said he is willing to return to Italy any time to answer any allegations, but repeated that he felt he had told all he knew. Anticipate Wants In anticipating the wants of the' more than 13,000 who did not pur- chase coupons, Weir stated, "We are still selling the coupons at the Athletic Administration ticket' offices. Also, single game tickets are still available for every game on the schedule, both home and: away." The Athletic department has an agreement with all of the schools in the Big Ten by which students can purchase tickets for any Michigan game. The single game tickets sell for $5 each and Weir advises that "Anyone who wants tickets should buy them as soon as possible, while the selection is still good." Weir emphasized the advice particularly 'for the Michigan State game on October 12. Block 'M' Close to a thousand of the stu- dent tickets were purchased for seats in the Block 'M' section sponsored by the Wolverine Club. Weir commented that "the Block 'M' did a great job." Seats in the Block *M' section are still available according to Weir and arrangements can be made through Mervin Sharfman, President of the Wolverine Club, at the club's offices in the Student Activities Building. Already Sold The 14,000 coupons already sold are more than the original esti- mate of -12,000-13,000. The sale will start a fund of over $168,000 which will be used in the expan- sion program of the Board in Con- trol.
