...that was the prospect faced by 143 P.G.A. players in the recent $100,000 Heritage Golf Classic at Hilton Head, S.C. The course was designed by Architect Pete Dye in constant consultation with Nicklaus, who, at 29, has been playing some of the best golf of his career. In three outings on the tour this fall, he won the Sahara Invitational and the Kaiser International tournament and finished second in the Hawaiian Open. He figured to be unbeatable on his own layout...
Palmer did just that in the Heritage. With "Arnie's Army" cheering him on, he jumped off to a three-stroke lead over Nicklaus in the opening round and maintained that edge during the next two days. Although Palmer slipped to a 74 in the final round, Nicklaus did even worse-four bogeys on the last nine to run up a 75 for the round and give Palmer his 69th professional victory...

The package would eventually cost the Met $3,000,000 a year. It would also make the orchestra and chorus the highest-paid in America-though they work longer hours than any comparable group...
Richard Strauss: Der Rosenkavalier (London). Conducted by Georg Solti, this Rosenkavalier neatly obliterates its recorded competition. Three lush-voiced ladies (Régine Crespin, Helen Donath and Yvonne Minton) keep the story poised convincingly between spring and autumn and the music teetering tenderly on the verge of tears. The big cast is stuffed with the names of well-loved Viennese singers, as well as the Met's sensational new tenor, Luciano Pavarotti...
