single, earned his 11th save by getting
Al Rayford on a grounder and then

Royals starter Bud Black, 6-5, had

Three-way tie for
early U.S. Open lead
MAMARONECK, N.Y. (AP) - Hale
Irwin and Hubert Green, two past win-
ners of the United States Open Golf
championship, and Jim Thorpe, who
has yet to win any tournament on the
PGA Tour, fired 2-under-par 68's and
were tied for the lead yesterday in the
first round of the national champion-
ship.
The opening round was interrupted
for 45 minutes by a violent thunderstorm
which struck the Winged Foot Golf Club
course just moments after Irwin had
finished.
IRWIN WON this prestigious title ten
years ago, the last time it was played on
this difficult course in the northern
suburbs of New York, and again in
1979.
Green, the wiiner of this title in 1977
but in a deep slump for two seasons,
had his round interrupted by the storm
that raked the course with winds, rain
and lightning. About two dozen players
remained on the course when Green
finished.
At that point, it appeared unlikely
that the round could be completed
before darkness.
ASINGLE stroke off the pace at 69, 1-
under-par on the course that was sof-
tened by overnight rains, were former
Masters champion Seve Ballesteros of
Spain, national amateur champion Jay
Sigel, Curtis Strange, Fred Couples,
Lennie Clements, Mick Soli and David
Canipe.
Among the group at par 70 were steady
Gil Morgan, the non-practicing op-
tometrist who has recorded five third-
place finishes this season, Australian
Greg Norman, Morris Hatalsky, Andy
Bean, Mike Sullivan and club pro Fran
Marello.
Jack Nicklaus, at age 44 seeking a
record fifth U.S. Open title, said he was
satisfied with a 71.
"I'm quite happy to be in with a 71. I
think I'll play better as the week goes
on," said Nicklaus, who broke a two-
year non-winning string two weeks ago.

dehydration while playing the third hole of the U.S Open in Mamaroneck,
N.Y. Peete was shooting from a sandtrap when he fell ill.
