Nicklaus had just birdied the 18th hole at the Baltusrol Golf Club to win the Open by four strokes over Arnold Palmer with a record score of 275, one shot better than the mark s»t bv Ben Hogan in 1948 at Los An geles. "I was playing the 18th hole for a par 5 or at most a bogey fi.*° Nicklaus said. "If I got a birdie, fine. "At the 18th tee I had two things on my mind. O.ie was that the only way for Arnie to tie me was if he shot a three and I took a seven. I remem bered that Arnie said last year that he was trying to break the record and wound up blowing the whole tournament. ' "Also, I remembered that Dick Mayer took a seven on this hole in "the 1954 Open and lost ou:. "I knew there was water on the left and trees on the right ot the fairway. So 1 hit a one iron dov n the right side in the rough. Then I hit a fat eigh-iron and finally another one-iron to the green about 23 feet from the pin " He rolled the putt straight into the cup to erase Hogan's mark.

Nicklaus, who also won the Open his first year as a pro .n 1962, proved that practice makes perfect. After Saturday's play, he spent almost an hour 011 the practice tee and putting green. He worked on drawing his tee shots from left to right more and on getting his left hand into his putts more. "I hit the ball as well as I can hit it," he said of his closing 65, one stroke off the Open record for a single round and two shots better than the mark for a Bal tusrol Open set in 1954 by Dick Chapman. "This was my best round in any Open. Was it my best round ever? If it wasn't, it didn't miss bv much." Ni'cklaus pointed for the Open from the time he missed the cut in the Masters Tournament. "As soon as I left the Masters the next thing I had in mind was the Ooen." he said. "I've played more golf so far this year than in any other year since my l ist as a pro. I've also played more practice rounds than in the last five or six years." "I was off and running when I birided the third, fourth and fifth,' 1 Nicklaus said. "The bo gey at six didn't even bother me, for some reason." When Nicklaus won the 1962 Open it also was on Father's Dav. is so desperately needed n the world of today.

"The American people are just too smart to accept a new champ from a bunch of guys that I've already annihilated. The fans just won't accept that." Chuck Davey, Michigan's boxing commissioner, said he was ready to issue a license for the six-round i exhibition by Clay. "For all in tents and purposes they already have it, the license," Davery a*id. "Everything is in order. It'a rou tine. Unless somebody comes up with something wrong they'll be granted a license." Davey said he received some telephone calls and letters protest ing the exhibition. But, he said, the opposition did not appear heavy and had not come from Gov.
