Dold drops to second after 74 By CARL SOTO CHANDLER Ken Story, a 60-year-old scratch player from Encanto GC, made a big move toward winning the Arizona Golf Association's seniors championship In his first try when he shot a 4-un der-par 68 second round yesterday. The 34-34 performance, that included five birdies, earned Storey a three-stroke lead over first round leader Fred Dold of Tucson National GC going into today's final 18 over the par-72 San Marcos Country Club layout. Bernie Long of Arizona CC, playing in the 55-59 division, moved into third place behind Storey's 141 and Dold's 144 when he carded a second round 40-33-73 for a 147 total. Defending titlist Ken Young of Valley CC used up 79 strokes and dropped back to 150, where he was tied at nine shots off the pace with Arthur Buck, Williams Air Force Base player, and Louie Estrella of San Barcos CC.

Storey, one-time national public links team player from Seattle, canned an 18-foot putt on the 185-yard third bole for this first birdie and had his long bogey on No. 4 when he pulled his tee shot under trees. He wound up his round with 6-foot birdie putts on the par-5 17th and 18th holes. Sixty-nine-year-old Dold couldn't buy a birdie in his second round 38-3674. He bo-gied the first and fourth holes, then clicked off 14 consecutive pars in a steady display of golf.

Long came up with some fine back nine shooting for his 73. Bernie birdied 13 and 14 before carding a four on the 190-yard 15th hole, then holed birdied putts on the last two greens for his incoming 33. Finishing the day 11 shots off the lead were Whitie Baltimore Bullets nip NY, 104-103 Associated Press ing the past three playoff series, gave Baltimore a 2-1 lead in the best-of-7 Eastern Conference semifinals which resume tomorrow in New York. Monroe, who led New York with 28 points and scored his team's only three field goals in the final three minutes, missed a layup on a fast break with 2:08 remaining while the Knicks trailed, 102-101. Archie Clark, who led the Bullets with 35 points, was trailing Monroe on the breakaway and was fouled by Walt Frazier in the scramble for the ball after Monroe's surprising muff.

Clark sank two free throws for a 104-101 lead, and teammate Wes Unseld missed two more foul shots before Monroe's field goal cut Baltimore's lead to one point wih 1:27 left.

For eons, countless sages across the land asserted that nothing could replace baseball. And, sure enough, It has. This is merely Insignificant prologue, you understand. By July of 1973, the entire hemisphere will be on strike, although the actual scope will be difficult to assess because the pickets also will be on strike. Sport will continue to occupy its special niche.

As of today, everyone everywhere will know of the baseball strike (they might have recognized it sooner, but during exhibition baseball it is next to impossible to tell whether a player is striking or not). But other strikes are certainly imminent. Only this week, as nothing was replacing baseball, another figure was (if you'll pardon the expression) making his move. That American chess grandmaster, Bobby Fischer, stymied his long-awaited showdown with Russian Boris Spassky with a financial demand. (Note: It has long been known that chess players have an even more Inadequate pension plan than baseball players).

Fischer demanded that he and the Soviet ace share in profits of their match in ADDITION to receiving prize money. This unearthed an entire new lode for attorneys. By the time Fischer and Spassky do meet, their new contracts will demand a setting befitting a match of such magnitude. Say, the Los Angeles Coliseum. There is some hunor, thank God, In most every crisis.

For example, when Western Union was on strike last year, the word I got was that President Nixon personally arbitrated the issue and had sent an absolutely agreeable plan of settlement to the company's leaders. But Western Union didn't receive his telegram. Jocko Conlan, the Valleyite who called a few strikes in his time, was directly in the midst of a baseball umpires' strike in 1964. "We met in May In Chicago," Jocko recalled, "and voted to go out on strike July 4. I was against the strike, thought it was a mistake and said so.

"I didn't get any place with them (the rest of the umps). If you've ever been in a meeting with 20 umpires you know NOBODY gets any place. There 20 different motions and 20 different seconds." The strike did not materialize. As of yesterday, Roller Derby had volunteered to fill baseball's television void by staging its scintillating matches on the tube. There apparently is no unrest In Roller Derby.

Even that will change, alas, when some of the skaters discover their benefits are less than those of other actors. MIAMI Julius Erving equaled the American Basketball Association playoff record with S3 points last night as he sparked the Virginia Squires 118-113 victory over the Floridians and extended Virginia's Eastern Division playoff lead to 3-0 in a best-of-seven series. Erving tied, the mark set in 1970 by Roger Brown of Indiana. Neither team was able to take command by more than seven points throughout the game. The Floridians led at half-time, 63-61, but trailed most of the second half.

They ran up eight straight points and erased a 99-92 Virginia lead to take command at 100-99 four minutes into the fourth quarter. Vlrtim (111!
