Harper shot 33-3671 with a hot putter. When strong, gusty wind? came to clear away the clouds that had drenched Augusta National during the night, they also dissipated dreams of record-breaking five others shot even par 72s. The par-shooters were U.S. Open Champion Tommy Bolt, Australia's Peier Thomson and Spain's Angel Miguel, two stars of about the strongest foreign entry the Masters ever has had, and touring pros Gene Littler and Jay Hcbert.

Littler had the extra distino that had developed after some exceptional practice scores. The combination of fickle wind and rain-softened, really slow greens made it difficult to judge shots. As a result, only four players bettered Augusta National's usually tough par for the first round and tributed their good scores in putting success, Burke was I able to lag them up close on 1 the greens and Palmer said he sank some long second putts. The trouble centered mainly on the stretch from the 11th through the 13th holes, in a valley whers 1 swirling winds and winding Rae's Creek formed a double threat. It was there that Jimmy Demaret soared from two I A 1 'a X1 Firsl'Round Masiers Scores tinn of doing it with 13 Straight pars.

lien llojian, whose impressive list of titles includes two Masters victories, was bracketed at 73 with Gary Player of South Africa, Dick Mayer, the J957 open champion, Davo Thomas of Wales, and Art Wall, top money winner this year, among others. Three-time Masters champion Sam Sncad posted a 74 and complained; "I hit some of the best shots of my life making bogies. The wind was never the same. I was either over the grten or short all day." He wasn't alone in this difficulty. Some of the other 74 shooters included Cary Middlecoff and Claude Harmon, former winners of this tournament, former Open Champion Jack Meek and Oklahoma's Charlie Coc, the current U.S.

amateur champion. Both Palmer and Burke said they had trouble judging shots yesterday and at August. Gft. (AT) Stan Leonard had some luck that was denied to others yesterday and led the way through the first round of the Masiers golf tournament. With the aid of a couple of "working man's pars" on the hack nine where swirling winds and a winding creek make golf hazardous at Augusta National, the balding, 42-year-old Canadian pro fired an opening round of 33-36 Of).

Three under par for the (5.9SO yard par 36-36 72 Augusta National Course, it gave Leonard a two-stroke edge over Arnold Palmer, the muscular young defending champion from Pennsylvania, Jack Burke, the lD.r6 winner, and balding former PGA Champion Chandler Harper at the end of a windy day that spelled trouble for some of the most famous players in the select field of 87.

NBC'S PACKAGE starts with the London bout and two others after the Johansson contest. It does not include the Johansson-Patterson fight.

As for the latter. Promoter Bill Rosensohn said he has not yet decided whether it will be telecast into the homes or theaters.

But at his Chatham, N.J. training camp, Patterson said "I'm very glad I'm going to fight often. Of course I've got to win those fights to continue defending the title.

I'm in fine shape, far faster than I was for my last defense against Roy Harris. I hadn't fought then in nearly a year and my reflexes were slow. I'm real sharp now." Patterson stopped Harris in the 12th round at Los Angeles, Aug. IS, 1958. Previous to that he stopped Olympic Champion Tete Rademacher in the sixth round at Seattle, Aug.

22. 1957. At the first press conference, announcements were made by Admiral John Bergen, chairman of the Board of the Garden, Cecil Rhodes, promoter of the London-Patterson fight at Las Vegas, and Tom Gallery, sports director of NBC. THE THREE said Patterson would defend his title three times if he wins within an 18-month period starting May 1 for the Friday night television series. This deal involves Rhodes, D'Amato and NBC and the Friday night sponsor.

The Garden fitted in because they have the Friday night TV program. This agreement docs not include the Johansson bout. Admiral Bergen said the Garden expected to participate as promoter or landlord in two of the Friday night TV bouts. Rhodes said he would promote fights involving D'Amato's boxers in the Garden of a rental basis and not necessarily as part of the Friday night TV series. He said as far as the heavyweight promotions were concerned he would have to take them one at a time.

He indicated everything was up to D'Amato. AS FOR the Las Vegas fight. Rhodes and Gallery confirmed the $223,000 figure for radio and home TV. Rhodes has guaranteed D'Amato and Patterson $250,000 for this fight. Of this sum.

$75,000 will be paid to London. Patterson is a 10-1 favorite over London and a 3-1 choice over Johansson. Bakctlall Srores AN AM Cll TIIAll Ai le.U.ille. Rr Wife's l. Affte! fex.t H- Cee All l'Offt I.

There will be a $100 top ticket price for the Johansson fight. Also highly significant was the disclosure that Madison Square Garden may participate in two of the heavyweight title fights and possibly others involving D'Amato's stable of fighters. The manager apparently has ended his long feud with the Garden. D'Amato, undoubtedly, will continue his vendetta with James D.

Approximately half of the engine hangs out of the left side of the hood.

The engine is set IS degrees from horizontal. Davies and Poueleson believe the "outboard" engine arrangement will give them weight distribution and also will provide natural moling. Davies will drive the car both here and at Indianapolis. HF.NRY BANKS. US AC director of competition, forgot his credentials yesterday and got all wet as the result.

Driven out to the track by Mrs. Helen Amick. Banks got. to the main gate just as a terrific downpour let loose. The guard at the gate was adamant, Banks couldn't get through the tunnel to the inf.cld without credentials so Henry had to get out of the car and go into the L'SAC trader to get his pit pass.

Banks got soaked but he defended the guard, saying he was only doing job. AMONG VISITORS yesterday to the track was Lloyd Gcarhart, former Indianapol.s Indians outfielder who is serving as a hatting instructor for the Cleveland Indian farm club at Indianville located adjacent to the speedway plant. Gcarhart, who now is city recreation director at Xenia, is a close of Harlan I'engler, chief steward of the Speedway cars and also nf the SOA-mile race. Gear-hart played with the Indianapolis club from until Dr. Walter Dean, official dentist at the Indianapolis Speedway, celebrated his 3Dth birthday yesterday at the track and volunteered his services to the medical staff at the track's hospital in tase they are needed.

Rathmann came into the pits and showed little concern, lie s.iid the track was slightly wet in that spot and the car sremcd to "bottom out" he-fore it hit the rail. After the car was checked snd found still in good run-! ning condition, Rathmann went right back out and was timed unofficially for one lap at slightly over 14.. Right after that something gave way and the engine cut out and Rathmann coasted nearly two miles around the track. Mechanics were working last night tearing down the engine to locate the source of trouble. The car is owned by John T.dgar of Lncino, and Rathmann is slated to share driving chores with brother Jim, of Miami Beach.

Magnificent shooting by Oscar Robertson, John Green and Jerry West pulled the All-Stars out of trouble in the final two minutes.

Robertson hit 23 points, West 22 and Green 20, but it was Green's rebounding which hurt the Oilers' the most. High point man for the Oilers, the AAU runners-up, was Burdie Haldorson. who had 20 points. Teammate Don Ohl was credited with 13. Holding Lcmlv rs WIN -b iii- h-n -w.
