’69 Masters May Be
Goalby’s Swan Song
By DAVID MOFFIT
UPI Sports Writer
AUGUSTA, Ga. (UPl)—This
year’s Masters golf tournament,
which begins Thursday, could
be defending champion Bob
Goalby’s swan song.
The 38-year-old pro, who has
obviously let the controversy
surrounding his victory here
last year get to him, hasn’t said
he’ll quit for good—but he came
mighty close.
“I seem to have lost my
desire,” Goalby said. “It’s
really been bugging me, but it
seems I hate to go up to that
first tee. I’m going to take off
after the Masters and not play
again until I feel like it.”
Goalby won the '6B Masters
with an 11-under-par 277 by
shooting a final round 6-under
par 66. Robert de Vincenzo, who
actually shot a 65 on the final

day, was credited with a 66-278
and second place when he failed
to catch a scoring error on his
card and it cost him a stroke.
The 83 players in this year’s
Masters had only until 2 p.m.
today to get in their final
practice licks over the famed
Augusta National Golf Course.
The course was to be closed
at that time for a last-minute
trimming and the golfers will
spend their afternoon competing
in the Par-3 tournament which
is held annually on the eve of
the Masters.
As the Masters draws near,
the oddsmakers are leaning
toward three-time champion
Jack Nicklaus, only man ever to
win two Masters back to back,
as the man to beat, even though
Big Jack hasn’t been imposing
of late.
However, four-time champion
Arnold Palmer has been posting
some Impressive prac ti c e
rounds, including a 9-under-par
63 on Monday; U.S. Open
champion Lee Trevino appears
to have receovered from the
hand injury he suffered two
weeks ago in Miami; and Billy
Casper appears to have made a
quick recovery from the allergy
that forced him out of the
National Airlines Open.
Oddly enough, there has not
been as much support as might
be expected for Gene Littler,
who has had far and away the
best showing so far this year.

Lakers Favored
Over The Hawks
By United Press International
When he was 34, it was a very
good year for Bill Russell. So
he’s not sure his 35th year could
be any better.
The veteran Russell, player
coach of the defending cham
pion Boston Celtics, will be
trying to direct his club to a
two-game advantage over the
New York Knickerbockers when
the teams meet tonight at
Boston Garden in their Eastern
playoff series.
But even if the Celtics take
New York and go on to success
in defense of their National
Basketball Association playoff
crown, Russell isn’t sure it’ll be
the greatest thing that ever
happend to him.
The aging but agile center
still considers last season, when
he both coached and played the
Celtics to the playoff crown, as
his biggest thrill. “I don’t think
I could top it,” Russell says.
There were only a limited
number of second balcony seats
available at Boston Garden for
the second game of the series
which will return to New York
on Thursday night and be
televised from the Garden next
Sunday afternoon.
In the Western Division finals,
Los Angeles hosts Atlanta in the
first game of their best-of-seven
series Friday night. The
Lakers, with Wilt Chamberlain
leading the way, are favored
over the Hawks.
