Miss Post is only four feet, 11 inches tall. --(CP Wirephoto) SOUTHPORT, England (Reut-| ers)--Arnold Palmer, the 5-to-2] favorite to win this year's Brit- ish open, came in from the first qualifying round Monday with a one-under-par 71. Smilingly the American Open champion summed up his round: "My driving was not too good. I didn't play my irons too good. I didn't putt to well. Apart from that, I played really well." Gary Player of South Africa, with Palmer a top money-win- ner on the American circuit and 3-to-1 to win this British Open, also came in off the hill- side course with a 71. More than 350 players were battling today in the final 18 holes of qualifying play for a Arnold Palmer One-Under-Par maximum of 120 places in the v.@mpionship. The rounds were played over the Royal Birkdale and the neighboring Hillside course. Qualifying scores do not count in the 72-hole champion- ship. PAIR TOP MARK Two golfers broke the Royal Birkdale course record. Bob J. 8. Moore, a little known pro from the English Lake dis- trict, both came in from the 72- par Birkdale with 67s. Defending champion Ken Nagle of Australia finished in 73 at Birkdale. . Canada's Ray Mclnnally shot a two-over-par 74 on the Birk- dale course. Bill Wright, club Charles, 25, of New Zealand and t pro at Sturgeon Valley Golf and Country Club in Edmonton, had a five-over-par 79. A hard - luck story unfolded when American John Cotton, 34, who had brought his wife 3,- 000 miles to watch him play, had to retire after only three holes. Sunday night Cotton's car battery ran down and he pulled shoulder muscles trying to push Former British and Canadian Amateur champion, Frank Stranahan of the U.S., came in with a 71 at Birkdale and Dick R.. Chapman Sr., 30, of Pine- hurst, N.C., a former U.S, Brit- ish and Canadian Amateur champion, took 71 to complete Hillside. By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Rochester Red Wings--one of four teams in the big scramble for third and fourth places in the International League -- are starting to find the home run range again. League leaders last season with a 142 but without a single home run in four games at Tor- onto, the Red Wings connected {for three Monday night against | Buffalo. This lifted the Wings to a 54 vicotry over the Bisons land sole possession of third | place. Jersey City tied Buffalo for {fourth by topping first - place IC SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts | Four Clubs Are Drawing Better NEW YORK (AP)--Only Cin- cinnati, Detroit, New York and lumbus, 6-1, while Toronto bowed to Syracuse 3-0 and Red Wings Fly High With Aid Of Homers The Wings came from behind after Buffalo's Tony Curry hit his 18th homer with a man on in the first. Fred Valentine got viie back with a solo smash in the bottom half, Luke Easter's clout with one on tied the score in the fourth and Barry Shet- rone hit his 12th with a man on to provide the winning margin in the fifth. Zack Monroe's three-hit pitch- ing and the offensive efforts of Ultus Alvarez, Frank Obregon and Hal Bevan were more than enough for Jersey City in the romp over Columbus. Alvarez had four for five, including his fifth homer. Bevan and Obregon each had three hits. slipped to sixth.

Go 1960 home attendance figures at the 1961 season's halfway mark, an Associated Press showed today. The decreases range from THE WEATHERMAN washed out all the scheduled ball games las night, in both baseball and softball action. In some cases this wasn't very important, but in the Ki- wanis Bantam Softball League it meant that some teams now have two postponed games to clean up within the next two weeks--in order to be "caught up" with their playing schedule by the end of next week, July 21-- when the top four teams will enter OASA elimination playdowns. Games not played by that time will just not count in the standing---a situation which in some cases might mean a playoff position, since this year's schedule race is extremely close. Some of last night's postponed games have already been arranged for to- night. Other teams involved are urged to "get busy" as the season will be even more crowded--with extra playoffs--in August. SOFTBALL FANS have got some special treats in store this week. Tonight, at Alexandra Park, there's the doubleheader with the City and District Assoc. teams in action. It's Scugog Cleaners vs. Tony's Vend- ors at 6:30 o'clock and in the floodlight game tonight, Heffering's take on MacLean's Esso. Tomorrow night, in Beaches League schedule play, here at Alexandra Park, it's Tony's vs Randall-Roy Metals, a game that gives the Oshawa team a good opportunity to tighten their grip on a playoff berth and keep right up along- side Dependable Cleaners. On Thursday, it's City and District action again, with Tony's vs Heffering's and MacLean's meeting Scugog Cleaners. On Saturday of this week, the annual All-Ontario Junior softball tour- nament will be held in Oshawa and this year they have a record number of entries, 15 teams already lined up for the big fray. They've got special attendance prizes, trophies, etc., and softball fans can have a full day's entertainment, starting at 12:30 noon, with the final game under floodlights on Saturday night. TODAY is All-Star Game day in the Major 1 f scheduled for San Francisco. Rival managers Danny Murtaugh and Paul Richards have named Warren Spahn and Whitey Ford as their starting pitchers. Richards has already announced that he has no intention of making line-up changes merely to get into action various play- ers that have been voted all-star rating by the fans. If he likes the way his starting players are going along-- he says he intends to keep them in the game, Mr. Rich- ards may be missing a point--this' All-Star deal is basic~ ally a treat for the fans--not an opportunity for the chosen manager to prove his ability, . : e first of VO ealiires BRIGHT BITS:- Canada's Open Golf Championship isn't attracting the wealth of U.S. pro stars that was expected and this lack of entries is bound to be noticed in the gate receipts. It becomes obvious--the attraction isn't great enough . .. GEORGE CHUVALO is to meet Bob Cleroux on August 8. They'll fight in Montreal and this will be their third meeting . . . DON DRYS- DALE was fined $100 by National League president Warren Giles and also suspended for five days--for throwing at Frank Robinson, in Sunday's game. It's a "first time" suspension for Giles to hand out to a pitcher but obviously they are determined to stop the "dusting" . +. « RANDALL-ROY Metals tied Dependable Cleaners last night 2-2 at Kew Beach.

The Syracuse reliever retired R. C. Stevens on a pop fly to end the game. Richmond, running its record to seven wins in nine games, laid down a 14-hit barrage to capture the opener. The Virgin- ians squeezed through in the nightcap when Art Ceccarelli came on in the final inning to quell a Charleston threat. SPORTS CALENDAR | TODAY'S GAMES [SOFTBALL City and District Assoc.
