...consultation on a range of problems from inflation to the environment. It does not necessarily mean summitry or an American President living out of a suitcase. It does mean hard talking at the Cabinet level, and a President who can deliver on his promises-get bills through Congress and lobby with the American people for what he believes. Europeans joke about our Presidents- Johnson the Texas sheriff, Kennedy of Camelot, Nixon the crisis manager. Now they feel they have an all-American boy.

Dave Hill, who was leading after three rounds at a spectacular eight under par, seemed to be running away with the tournament. Two shots back, tied for second, were two men who epitomize the drab, jockish, predictable touring pro: Tom Weiskopf, the close-cropped, 6 ft. 3 in.

Leading 1-0 after a first-inning run, Miami boosted the margin to 2-0 in the fourth with Vaughn Flick's home run. In the fifth Hurricane All-American Orlando Gonzales's single sent third baseman Jim Costa home, after Costa had singled and stolen second. In the sixth Holt walked Witt Beckman, gave up a bunt single to Marty Flick to set the stage for a run-scoring single by Wayne Krenchicki...
