...WOMEN'S OPEN GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP (ABC, 4:30-6 p.m.). Final round, live from the course of the Scenic Hills Country Club in Pensacola...
...threaded through the crowds on his way to the 18th tee at the Champions Golf Club in Houston last week, a drowsy-looking man in a tangerine shirt was halted by a marshal and sternly told: "Get behind the ropes, fella." No, no, another marshal whispered. "Let him through. He's one of the players." Minutes later Orville Moody became the player.

Soviet children, who learn the game in Young Pioneer youth groups, argue Sicilian defenses and queen's gambits with the same passion that American kids show when they talk about double plays...

He has a Lincoln and a Chrysler, a country-club membership and the best Negro cook in town. He has an array of stocks and bonds (which he contemplates at intervals in the basement of Virgil Barren's bank). Still, mysteriously and unfairly, his normal existence seems filled with threats. Waiters "take advantage of people every chance they get." Negroes unreasonably wish to be regarded as fellow human beings. Jews violate standards of business practice...
