ere look ins mighty liar! far the San Francisco Oian's They h.id just lost, three of four pomes to the Cincinnati Reds and their pitching staff was in a shambles. Then, like a dream come true, they rediscovered Bob Bolin and the world was bright after all. It was the blond, drawling native of Hickory Grove, who Mopped the 1ml bats oi 1 Reds on tour nits in a 4-2 San victory Thursday night sweltering Crosley Field. For Holm il was his second triumph in a row. The first came last Saturday when he beat the Atlanta Braves on a four-hitter.

The two complete came victories have enabled manager Clyde King's staff to get some extra rest and regroup for the long haul through July, August and September. 2.1 in Scrap For NHL Berths new york seven cities in the United States and one in Canada are in the running for the two new Bnim not only lit it-rl a masterpiece, but. he also helped oh'ii eairc with a two-run homer; a homer that proved to lie the riil-feience in the game. "1 knew I had to pitch a pood game, both here and at. Atlanta." said Bolin, now 4-4 for the season.

"I had to give the team a lift." And what a lift the Giants have gotten by the two complete came wins by Bolin. The Reds, however, weren't so lucky. They got little in the way of help out of starter Tony Cloninger, who gave up all four runs in two innings and saw his record fall to 4-10.

"We only got. four hits and had a chance to win." Cloninger was behind almost before he started, giving up a leadoff homer to Giant right-fielder Bobby Bonds, a man who is fattening up on Cincinnati pitching.

"If you keep swinging you're gonna hit one every once in a while," smiled Bolin.

"It was a fast hall, up where I was swinging. The ball hit the bat and away it went." The Giants' final run came in the same inning when Bonds tripled and Ron Hunt singled him home, The Reds got single runs off Bolin in the fourth on and in the sixth on Lee Tony Perez' sacrifice fly May's sacrifice fly. Bolin's performance was even more amazing when it was considered that the game was played in 93-degree heat.

Barry McDermott Cincinnati Gels AAU Swim Meet i jy wV'' Vs; jK jff iff The Other Side CLEVELAND When he was young, say about six years old, John Miller's father started him. They had a driving net in the basement of their San Francisco, home, and the Millers would hit practice balls during the evening. For three years, John practiced, grooving his swing, and every once in a while, he would sneak out to the front lawn where he would hit shots down the street. That makes you a straight player. An off line shot costs more than an out of bounds penalty when it goes through a picture window.

Finally, his father took John to the golf course and it was all so easy. When I got out onto the course, I hardly ever hit a bad shot," John remembers. "I think it's a fantastic way to start out. You're not worried about distance or anything. You just groove your swing and get a good grip." Now Miller is 22 years old and a rookie on the PGA tour and he is sitting in the locker room at the Cleveland Open and Arnold Palmer walks by.

"How you hitting them?" says Miller to Palmer. "01' Arnie," he chuckles after Palmer has left, obviously savoring the confrontation: rookie and the superstar. "I don't think there's any water in there Mr. Herbert," he says to Jay Hebert who is trying to pour some water from a pitcher. Rookies try to be helpful to the veterans, MILLER IS OBSESSED with studying the good players.

"I really watch them close," he says. "Maybe I shouldn't now that I'm a pro. But I walk up to them and ask them what they're working on. It's funny how any guy that's winning, he's putting. It's 100 putting.

Week to week, that's what it is. I'd rather hit it terrible and putt good." -Associated Press (Gene Smith) Photo it here Wednesday night at Cincinnati-San Diego game.

Keating, head of the Cincinnati Pepsi Marlin swim club and lonjf active in Cincinnati swm-ming, was informed late Thursday by Harry Hains-worth, national AAU executive chairman, that his bid for both the men's and women's meet has been approved. Yale University had bid for the men's event; Cincinnati for both. AAU officials approved the joint Cincinnati bid, 78 to 28.

Pepsi Marlins will be the sponsoring club. This means about 700 of the finest swimmers in the United States, including Olympic champions Debbie Meyer and Sharon Wichman and Indiana's Mark Spitz, are expected to converge on Cincinnati for a week next April for perhaps the biggest swimming meet in the country and certainly the biggest in Cincinnati's history. The championships will be held at the new $500,000 Keating Natatorlum being built at St. Xaviej High School by Keating and his brother, William J. Keating, as a memorial to their father, Charles H.

Keating Sr. It was Charles Keat-ing's hope when plans were originally announced to bring some of the top meets to Cincinnati. "I think we've really pulled one off here," said "We'll undoubtedly see about 70 of the U. S. Olympic team.

Keating estimated it will cost the sponsoring group about $15,000 to bring the championships here. Tentative dates of the meet are April 9th through April 12. Miller had some success as an amateur. He finished eighth in the 1966 U. S.

Open and he was on the 1967 All-America golf team but he is having troubles.

(Onry games scheduled) in he says to Jay Herbert who is trying to pour some water and I didn't know it. Now I've squared it up and I'm starting to play pretty good. "The driving is tough," he says. "For anybody who ever comes out here, you've got to fly. It wears you out driving and it's pretty expensive, too.

whole thing for rookies is to learn the courses and to get the experience. When I go to the West Coast where I know the courses, I can play better than these guys. I know I can." THE FLAXEN HAIRED Miller has won about $2000 this year, playing in five tournaments. He failed to qualify for two and he says Mondays are the worst days on the tour because Monday is qualifying day. "There's a lot of guys who qualify every Monday and never make the cut," he says.

"But they can beat you to death on Mondays. They get into the tournaments and can't play but they can play on Mondays." The top 60 money winners each year are exempt from tournament qualifying and that is the goal of the rookies. "I really don't expect to get in the top 60 this year because we started so late," he says. "I thought it would be easier out here than it is. It's so hard.

Like the 284 I shot in the Texas Open. That would win any amateur tournament, even the U. S. Amateur. And I finished 22nd.

It's unbelievable. "Good players are just a dime a dozen. There's good players who can't make a paycheck ever. You hate to compare yourself with other people, but of the 15 guys who made it down the PGA school, I'd say I'm doing as good as any of them." THE TWO THINGS that help you on tour, Miller believes, are good sponsors and a good wife. "For a guy like me, you shouldn't ever come out on the tour unless you have a good sponsor," he says.

"A lot of guys come out and their sponsors put so much pressure on them. They miss a Monday and the next Monday they can't even play. Every time they miss a two foot putt all they see is dollar signs. "I think it's better to be married out here," says Miller, who is engaged to be married in January. "Did you know that 58 of the top 60 money winners are married? Miller Barber and Bob Smith aren't.

There's so many people out here and they don't care if you shoot 68 or 85. They really don't. They may act like they do but they don't. It's dog eat dog." If Miller does not make it on the tour, he will take a club job. "I'd like to teach," he says.

"I love to teach golf. I like to help people on their game. Even if its going to help them and they're going to beat me. Maybe I sholudn't, but I do. I want to help my friends." Rookies like John Miller are at the bottom of a lonely competitive world, trying to claw their way to the top and what you did as an amateur does not count.

It's the other side of the glamorous world, the dark side. How They Stand NATIONAL LEAGUE AMERICAN LEAGUE --Jlf fl Villi. ft sr Win lis am Old Forest trouble before disposing of British Davis Cupper Graham til well, 62, 16, 62, 1315, 1210. This was the second consecutive day that Ashe has been forced to five sets by an unranked opponent and he appears far off form. Ashe's overhead was weak and on five match points he allowed the Briton to escape because of his own errors.

The successes of Lutz and Ashe assured the United States of at least two competitors in the round of 15. Pancho Gonzalez of Los Angeles, heroic winner of the longest singles match in Wimbledon history Wednesday when he overcame Charles Pasarell, led four other Yanks safely through the second round with an easy 64, 63, 63 decision over Sweden's powerful Ove Bengtsson. Also moving into the third round were 15th seeded Dennis Ralston of Bakersfield, 16th seeded Stan Smith of Pasadena, Tom Edlefesen of Fort Walton Beach, Fla and St. Louis professional Earl Buchholz. Ralston beat Jan Kukal of Czechoslovakia, 7 5, 6 2 fi Smith trounced David Lloyd of Britain, 63, 75, 61; Edefsen outduelled Ray Keldie of Australia, 86, 63, 46, 57, 64; and Buchholz defeated Chilean Louis Ayala, 86, 62, 64.

Olympic boxing differs from American professional or amateur game because no clinching Is allowed, encouraging all-out action by competitors. These are the first sanctioned international amateur boxing matches ever to be held in Cincinnati, Schwartz noted, 'i made 30 speeches about these bouts over the last two months and so many people asked me 'What can we do to help? Well, they can help by coming to the Gardens and supporting: these boxers," he said. Non-Americans will serve the Yanks.

A win tonight for the U. S. could begin to reverse this trend. Honorary chairman Roily Schwartz of Cincinnati, who will serve as one of two referees tonight, notes that a tie between the two countries is impossible at the Gardens. The odd number of matches and the lack of draws in amateur boxing bar any team tie.

Schwartz, a referee In last year's Olympic Games at Mexico City, figures two matches will top tonight's card: Cincinnatian Morris Jordan against Ouenther Meier In a 156-pound bout and heavyweight Ernie Shaver of the II.
