Stockton had a 69 and Jacklin,
who abandoned the American
tour this year to concentrate on
play in Europe, commented he
wanted "to win this one and
run ," after getting in contention
with a 71.
Sam Snead, the 61-year-old for-
mer star, had a share of the lead
until he bogeyed three of his
last five holes for 71 and dropped
back to even par at 142.
Arnold Palmer, still plagued
by putting woes and still chas-
ing his first PGA title, packed
up and went home to Latrobe,
Pa., a victim of the cut for the
first time ever in this tourna-
ment.
Palmer had a 74 for 150, one
over the score required to make
it for the final two rounds.
U. S. Open champion Johnny
Miller had a 71 for 143. Leading
money winner Bruce Crampton
of Australia slipped back with
71-144. Masters champion Tom-

were at 146. Aaron had another

South African Gary Player, the
defending title - holder, took a

The stocky Iverson, a 27-year-

old from LaCrosse, Wis., showed
remarkable poise when he ap-
peared on the verge of blowing
his first round lead.
Iverson who has scored his on-
ly victory in a satellite tourna-
ment in his three years on the
tour, bogeyed both the third and
fourth holes and appeared on the
verge of collapse.
He bunkered his tee shot on
the par three third - "I just hit
a terrible iron"-and missed the
green on the fourth - "another
very, very bad iron shot.'
But he pulled himself togeth-
er in a hurry, scoring birdies on
the next two holes to get back to
even par for the day.
