...Plays Too Slow." On the very first hole, a downhill, 455-yd. par-four, Palmer pushed his drive into the rough, knocked his No. 6-iron approach over the green, overshot the pin by 15 ft. with a chip shot, two-putted for a weak bogey five. Playing near-flawless golf at a deliberate, almost indolent pace ("He plays too slow," said Palmer, "and I told him so"), Nicklaus made his par and took a one-stroke lead that he never relinquished. At the fourth hole, when Nicklaus hooked his tee shot into 6-in. rough. Palmer managed...
...their country cousins turn a deaf ear to their pleas, the cities have another course, which is the bogey of every state legislator who opposes the creation of a federal Department of Urban Affairs. The cities may be forced to bypass the state governments, which show little interest in their unique problems, and go directly to Washington for financial help. If that day comes, the states may lose their control over the big cities, thus eroding the U.S. system of federal-state government. In New York, there is the old proposition of seceding from Albany and joining the Union...

...olden times, the Brattle had a recording of the 1812 Overture, which was at least close to the proper emotions for a Bogey festival, but this fall, the horns will sound the spaces between the theatre's showings of Hiroshima Mon Amour, Black Orpheus, and even Can-Can. Variety is required: for the first of these three, Norman Dello Joio's Air Power Suite would no doubt suffice; a few bar's of Gluck might enliven the second; and Offenbach is the only answer for the third. Certainly other suggestions are possible, but continuing the present entr' acte offerings...
...NORAD fighter planes, from long-ranging F-101s to speedy new F-106s on some 6,000 intercept sorties. On the radarscopes of distant destroyers and aircraft, of early-warning stations from the Canadian Arctic and Alaska to towers planted deep in Atlantic waters, appeared a multitude of bogey blips. They were caused by about 250 Strategic Air Command B-478, B-528 and refueling tankers, along with Vulcan bombers of Britain's Royal Air Force. Many of these planes were homebound from foreign bases; others had slipped from their North American stations to turn around over the Pacific...
