"I was just damn lucky," a gracious Nicklaus said. "Tom Weiskopf had a right to win. Johnny Miller had a right to win. Nobody gave it away. I felt a sense of history out there." The 27-year-old Miller, Pro Golfer of the Year in 1974 and winner of 11 tour tournaments in the past ll1 months, came from 11 shots back after the first two rounds to miss carry ing Nicklaus into a playoff by a whisker.

"I think Broberg had better location than he used to have with Texas," Ellis said. "He looked confident and made good pitches all day. I thought he threw a great game."

But I've added a couple of pitches since he's seen me in the National League a fork ball and a couple of sidearm pitches." Aaron, who has only two hits in his first 16 times at bat as a Brewer, said Perry had thrown several fork balls and palm balls to him in spring training. "I was looking for those, but he threw me some fast balls away," Aaron said.

(AP) -There Jack Nicklaus stood on the 16th hole Augusta's par three Red Bud hole looking at a 40-foot sidehill putt that mast have looked more like a mile. His ears were still ringing from the cheers of the thousands lining the long par five No. 15 just behind him where tall Tom Weiskopf had just knocked home a 12-footer for a birdie that sent him into the lead of the 39th Masters Golf Tournament with three holes to play.

"Sometimes you get a feeling about these things," Nick-1 a said afterward. "I thought I could make the putt. I decided to use a different style. I decided to hand-stroke the putt rather than hit it. "I knew Tommy, watching from the tee, would have a hard time playing the 16th after watching me make a two.

So I struck it and it rolled in. That, for me, was the tournament." A momentarily shaken Weiskopf proceeded to leave his five-iron tee shot 80 feet short on No. 16 and watch his approach putt roll to the left, still 18 feet away. He bogeyed and there was a two-shot shift in those dying moments of one of the greatest golf tournaments ever played. "I got the two shots back that I had lost on the 14th," Nicklaus said.

Thousands pouring over Augusta's floral acres and millions viewing on television watched the battle go down to the final hole a no-quarter, no-choke shootout involving the three finest golfers of the age. Nicklaus emerged the winner, an unprecedented fifth Masters, his 15th major crown, the first leg on the only honor that still evades him the elusive Grand Slam, encompassing the Masters, U.S. and British Opens and the PGA, all in a single year. Nicklaus finished with a four-under-par 68 for a 72-hole score of 276 but called it "the greatest Masters I have ever played, better than when I set the record (271) in 1965. Weiskopf, a tall princely man with a swing of graceful power, and young, tow-headed Johnny Miller, at 27 rated by many as Nicklaus' heir apparent, were just one shot behind at 277, both barely missing birdie putts on the final green Peshtigo's Ruby Never-man just missed a triplicate with a 153 game after a pair of 154s and Green Bay's Barbara Smeester earned a steak dinner at the Spot Supper Club for picking the 6-7-10 split.

Aaron hit No. 600 of his record 733 home runs off Perry four years ago and batted .310 against him in 10 National League seasons.

This time he was called out on strikes three times, once with a runner on second, and grounded into a bases loaded double play. "I threw him sliders, fast balls, fork balls, kept him looking at different things," Perry said. "I never try to pattern myself with a great hitter like him.

Twins Top Hawks For USHL Crown By JIM ZIMA Press-Gazette Sports Writer Green Bay's Len Arnold enters the Press-Gazette Bowling tournament each year with the idea of having fun and bowling with his friends.

If he makes a buck, so much the better. Sunday, Arnold, a post office employe, had the fun and comradeship as usual but also displayed some bowling expertise along the way enough to fashion a 732, including 50 pin handicap, and gain a tie for fifth place in the men's division. Arnold was the only man or woman of the over 500 rolling LEN ARNOLD in the tournament at Riviera Lanes Sunday to hit the Top 10. The 175 average bowler opened with a 182 game and followed with a 223 before closing out with a booming 277 effort, just two pins shy of the high single in the tournament, a 279 rolled earlier by Green Bay's John Hiller. The 682 scratch was the highest of the season for Arnold, though he previously had logged a 700 national honor count.

The 277 was his best ever. "I've hit in the 260s before but never this high," he said. Arnold had a few problems to start with but said, "Once I moved over, the ball seemed to go all right. I had to figure way to get rid of the dive at the end. My ball was moving too much right at the end and was coming up with a split."
