Pushing him hard for the number one position will be sophomore Brian McGuinn, top man on last year's freshman squad. McGuinn tied for the lead in the last GBI meet, but lost out to Campen with a bogey on the third sudden death hole. A very powerful hitter, McGuinn outdrove Campen's 230-yard drive on the first play-off hole by a full 70 yards...

Only when he was safely back aboard the Voskhod II did they announce the flight and release TV pictures of his lofty acrobatics so that the world could get a guarded glimpse of the wildest space fantasy made real...
