Today's Sport Parade By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Editor By MILTON RICHMAN PI Sports Editor MAMARONECK, N.Y. (UPI) One thing about Jack he's not loose with the truth. He doesn't take the short way hbme with the facts. He's honest, right down to the bone. It seems he's in a bit of a the kind most everybody else in this U.S.

Open field would love to be in, and should you care to pursue the matter and press him for a reason for skid, Nicklaus promptly That's the word Jack Nicklaus uses. He's honest. He's also rather harsh with himself. Carelessness might be a better word than stupidity. Let's take another look at that his.

The last tournament he won as the Hawaiian Open four lonths ago. And the last major one was the PGA in Cleveland 10 months ago. "I read in the paper where I won only one of my last seven tournaments," Nicklaus remarked before venturing out Tesday's practice round here at Winged Foot. "I've also won three of my last nine, but that wasn't included in the story read." With this big slump he's in, Nicklaus somehow still has to win $115,832 so far this year. Remember, that's for less than six months.

Some slump! Improper Aignment But wait. Jack Nicklaus figures he knows the reason for all his trouble. He hasn't been 'igning himself properly. He has been playing the ball too far forward at address. "Over the weekend, I started moving the ball back," he said, demonstrating in front of his VPSX-TV To 'highlight Events A weekend of Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic As- events at The Pennsylvania State University are highlighed on "PIAA Sports: Track, Tennis, and Golf" Sunday, June 16, 4 p.m.

Hyers Sign Amateur Star PHILADELPHIA (UPI) Left wing Bob Sirois, who scored 72 goals in amateur hockey last reason, signed a multi year -ontract Tuesday with the Cup Champion Philadelphia Flyers. Sirois, 20, also had 82 assists or the Montreal Junior Cana- iiens last year. He was the layers' second choice in the Na- ional Hockey League's unateur draft and is the second ughest amateur goal scorer the lub has selected.

Only Clarke, drafted by the Flyers scored more as an The 6-0, 178-pound winger was elected on the third round by fte Flyers, who traded their irst draft pick. locker. "How much? About two-three inches, no more. What I've done is align myself better, set myself up more properly. If you can't set up, you can't play.

Actually, I've adjusted the ball position. That forced an adjustment in my grip. That forced another adjustment in my body position, and that forced still another adjustment in my turn. Get Jack Nicklaus, probably the best golfer of this era, simply had been playing the ball too far forward, and doing that had automatically weakened his grip. He had somehow fallen into a bad habit, one fairly common among ordinary hackers.

"How do so many of them, the hackers, develop the habit of playing the ball so far forward?" someone asked Nicklaus. "What causes it" He didn't take long to think about it. "Stupidity," he said, half- smiling. "The same thing that caused it with me." Nicklaus noticed his trouble for the first time playing the Masters last April. "On the 16th hole at Augusta I hit a ball fat," he said.

"I never hit a ball fat. It got me to thinking. I never had that problem before. Am I getting old?" Nicklaus, who is 34, laughed. "I found out what was wrong at Charlotte," he said, talking about the Kemper Open which wound up 10 days ago.

"What I did was move the ball back and adjust my grip, so that I got on top of the ball more. I tried it on my last shot at the Kemper, a five iron. It worked fine." So that's the latest big deal at the U.S. Open which doesn't get underway until Thursday. Jack Nicklaus has changed his grip! Hs stance, a little bit too, if you want to get technical about it.

From time to time, talking about these adjustments, he demonstrated them while standing in front of his locker. He went into greater detail than usual and in the time it took him, a crowd of newsmen gathered around. Japk Nicklaus finally finished and now wanted to head for the practice tee. "If you fellas will excuse me," he said, "I'm gonna go check my alignment."

NHL To Hold Expansion Draft Today MONTREAL (UPI) Kansas City and Washington, the National Hockey League's two new teams, today outfit themselves with players, at the league's expansion draft, each picking up 2 skaters plus two goalies from the unprotected lists of other clubs. The 16 existing teams are each permitted to protect 15 players and two goalies with no team losing more than one goalkeeper. The four clubs which lost goalkeepers in the 1972 expansion draft and LOS Angeles opt for exemption from the netminding draft.

General Manager Milt Schmidt of the Washington Capitols and his counterpart Sid Abel of the Kansas City Scouts, will choose goalkeepers first. The goalie rich Montreal Canadiens, who have four, were reported ready to opt for giving one up. According to some reports, Montreal general manager Sam Pollock has already agreed to let Abel take netminder Michel Plasse. As each club loses a player in the draft, it will be permitted to add another from the unprotected list to the protected roster. Several big names figure among the unprotected players, but most of these have indicated they plan to join the rival World Hockey Association.

Among the unprotected big guns are Montreal's Frank Mahovlich and Ron Harris, Bruce MacGregor and Bobby Rousseau of the New York Rangers. Paul Henderson of the Toronto Maple Leafs, who signed with the WHA Monday, was also left off the protected list, as was Toronto veteran Eddie Shack.

OPEN FOR BUSINESS AGAIN 9 IRV'S GARAGE Ardenheim State Inspection HARRISBURG (UPI) The Senate has passed landmark legislation designed to reduce damages from future floods by limiting development along flood-prone streams. The bill met opposition from senators who objected to the philosophy of giving government greater power over private property, but it still passed by a comfortable 38-9 margin.

The House must still approve it. The bill is considered the most important piece of environmental legislation before the legislature this session. Proponents have been fighting for its passage since floods from Tropical Storm Agnes in 1972. "This bill brings Pennsylvania law into harmony with a fundamental law of nature by recognizing that the flood plains along our streams belong to the river," said Sen. Franklin Kury, D-Northumberland, the bill's sponsor.

"By regulating development in these natural flood prone areas, we avoid future loss of lives and property, as well as save tax dollars otherwise needed for flood relief." The bill requires local governments to develop flood plain zoning plans, but gives the state Department of Environmental Resources and the Environmental Quality Board (EQB) extensive powers. The EQB would be empowered to draft statewide standards which municipalities would have to seat. The department would determine if the local governments comply with the regulations. When municipalities either do not develop flood plain zoning plans or if their plans are found unacceptable, the department has the power to draw up its own plans and force municipalities to accept them. A group of senators, including Stanley Stroup, Bedford, Henry Hager, R-Lycoming, and William Duffiend, Fayette, criticized the bill on grounds that it gives the state too much power over private property 'and it Will be too expensive for local governments to administer.

Kury argued, however, that government must limit development in flood plans, because events have proven that dams and dikes are ineffective. "Over $2 billion of the taxpayers' dollars has been spent in this state alone over the past 30-plus years to protect against flooding and assist in the recovery when flooding did, in fact, occurr," Kury said. "Yet, inspite of that heavy investment, in spite of the extensive measures undertaken, the toll of Hurricane Agnes alone in terms of property damage was an incredible $3 The bill does not affect persons who already have developed streamside property, but it will have a drastic impact on persons who had development plans for streamside property. Kury said that under regulations implementing the bill, construction of houses in flood prone areas would not be permitted. Flood-proofed factories and offices may be permitted, he said, but only if they would not interfere significantly with the expansion of water on the flood plain.

Unique Approach To Programs Set NEW YORK (UPI) The Public Broadcasting Service has embarked upon a unique approach for pogram selection funding that resembles a housewife shopping for groceries. The plan program cooperative the nation's 153 licensed public television stations to select and pay for those programs they wish to broadcast next season. Under the project, the stations were offered 180 programs to bid on in a series of elimination rounds. So far 11 programs have been selected, with another 39 to be voted on in the final round Wednesday. Street' is the number one show," said Hartford Gunn, PBS president.

"It received 145 votes. 'Washington Week in Review' was second." Trial Basis Gunn proposed this unprecedented plan two years ago and PBS approved it last April on a one year trial basis. "We decided on this approach for three reasons," Gunn said. "First we realized that since the Ford Foundation was scaling down its support for public television we had to find other means of funding. We looked at a number of alternatives and the one group with the greatest interest was the stations themselves.

'Secondly, the stations wanted a higher degree of control on national programming, which makes up so much of their schedule. "Thirdly, this system gives us a greater independence from attempts at possible government manipulation. You can try to control some of the stations, but you can't control all of them." Gunn said the local stations will receive their funds from voluntary contributions from viewers, and from local taxs, state appropriations and federal moneys. Provide Discounts He said that during the first year the Ford Foundation has provided a grant of $5.5 million and the federally funded Corporation for Public Broadcasting $4.5 million to provide discounts from the price the stations would have to pay for the programs. Each participating station, he said, will receive a 75 per cent discount on its program pu- chase, up to a certain limit.

In Skies Across (Cont'd from Page 1) Early morning temperatures ranged from 39 degrees at Sawyer Air Force Base near Marquette, to 92 at Needles, Calif. order to take full advantage of the discount, the stations must commit $3 million in local funds. Gunn said that under the plan the greater the number of stations that bid on a program the less each statiion will have to pay for it. However, he said, the larger stations, such as New York's WNET, will have to pay a greater percentage of the bill than the smaller ones like KWCM in Appeton, Minnesota. Copters, Dogs Used In Search BELFAST (UPI) British troops used helicopters and tracker dogs today in a search for three gunmen who ambushed a patrol in Londonderry, the army said.

No casualties were reported in the attack late Tuesday night in the Roman Catholic Creggan neighborhood of the city, 65 miles northwest of Belfast. Roving gangs of up to 50 youths tossed rocks and gasoline bombs at the soldiers taking part in the search. At one stage, troops fired rubber bullets into a gang of youths who had trapped and surrounded a lone soldier in an alley way, the army said. The three gunmen fired machine guns and rifles at a platoon of soldiers returning to their base from a routine patrol in the heart of the Creggan district, an army headquarters source said. The ambush came from a point in an alley about 100 yards from the base.

The soldiers crawled beneath armored vehicles to escape unharmed, the source said. Extra troops were called in from the army's Brandywell base less than one-half mile away, and the troops swept throught the area in an attempt to cut off the gunmen's escape. In other violence, bomb blasts wrecked an unoccupied Belfast elementary school and a trailer being used as a customs post in County Armagh Tuesday. No injuries were reported in either incident. Police in Belfast said a man in his twenties who was taken to a hospital for treatment of gunshot wounds in his side apparently was the victim of Irish Republican Army disci pline.

Partisan Split Is Evident WASHINGTON (UPI) House Judiciary Committee Democrats say evidence that President Nixon approved an in depth investigation into Dr. Daniel Ellsberg is "significant and damaging," but Nixon's Republican defenders say the evidence is inconclusive. Several Democrats also pointed out testimony by former White House aide John D. Ehrlichman that Nixon "indicated after the fact approval" of the burglary of the office of Ellsberg's psychiatrist. But most members agreed Tuesday there is little evidence to back up the allegation Nixon tried to improperly influence Judge Matthew Byrne, who was presiding at Ellsberg's trial in the Pentagon Papers case.

The allegation of improperly influencing Byrne is under investigation in the committee's impeachment probe. The inquiry today turns to allegations that Nixon used government agencies, particulary the Internal Revenue Service, to retaliate against enemies of the administration. During Tuesday's session, Nixon's Watergate lawyer James D. St. Clair attempted to give the committee a 10,000 word brief disputing allegations of Nixon's complicity in the Watergate cover-up.

But chairman Peter W. Rodino rejected the brief as premature. Ehrlichman Testimony Committee members agreed that the most important material they received during the session was testimony given by Ehrlichman to a grand jury in California concerning the Ellsberg break-in by the White House plumbers. Ehrlichman said he was present twice when Nixon discussed the break-in after it had taken place. At one meeting, Ehrlichman quoted Nixon as saying in substance: "While I did not know of the break-in attempt in advance, I surely recognize the valid national security reasons why it was done." At another meeting Ehrlichman quoted Nixon as saying "the break-in was in furtherance of national security find was fully justified by the circumstances." Ehrlichman said that before the break-in, Nixon approved an "in depth investigation" of the leaking of the Pentagon Papers and Ellsberg.

"Ehrlichman's testimony is very direct," said one liberal Democrat who asked not to be named. "The Ellsberg investigation was described to him (Nixon) and he approved it was very flat." But Rep. Joseph Maraziti, RN.J.,said, "I don't see that it's very significant inconclusive really." HORSEHUNTED TUSCON, Ariz. (UPI) Patrolman Lyle W. Mann is looking for a hit-and-run horse.

The riderless horse galloped out of the darkness, collided with Mann's patrol car and galloped away. The horse apparently was not hurt, Mann said, but his patrol car has a S50 dent in the right rear fender. Egyptians (Cont'd from Page 1) "I have been looking forward to this day from the first time I took office," Nixon said. The smile broadened Sadat's face. "It is a day for us." herpeated.

Egypt has held man.s wild receptions for visitors, inrlud- ing one for the 1964 visit to Cairo by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev. This one easily topped the Khrushchev welcome "I've come to see Nixon." said 16-year-old high school student Shukri Mohammed, one of the multitude that brought Cairo's traffic to a standstill. "Previously Nixon was against us but now he is on our side. If this is the case, it's very good." Kissinger on his arrival saw a number of faces familiar from his trips through the Mideast to bring cease-fire agreements 'between Israel and Egypt and Syria that set the stage for Nixon's trip. Kissinger smiled and waved.

He showed no signs of the tension that marked his Salzburg news conference Tuesday in which he criticized a "Campaign of innuendos" that he said was trying to impinge his honor. The President shook hands with a dozen of Egyptian officials and reviewed an honor guard on his arrival at the Cairo airport, which featured playing of the national antthems of both countries. Businesses in Cairo closed at noon and crowds began gathering in the blazing heat two hours before Nixon's plane arrived from his two-night rest stop in Salzburg. Bands of children and teenagers began practicing their chants of "Nix-on, Nix-on" an hour before his arrival. Banners reading friendship for peace," "Welcome Nixon, our dear guest" and "We greet the American people in the person of Nixon" were everywhere.

Security was tight all along Nixon's route. Policemen outnumbered citizens almost 15 to 1 at his takeoff from Salzburg. A pro-Iraq newspaper in Beirut said today that Egyptian security officials had placed more than 500 Egyptians and all Palestinians living in Cairo under surveillance during Nixon's visit. However, Radio Cairo, which has been heckling U.S. presidents for decades, were all praise for Nixon and did not mention Watergate problems.

These problems intensified Tuesdaywhen Kissinger threatened to resign because of the controversy over his involvement in domestic wiretapping. There was still a possibility that he might have to leave the Mideast trip to appear before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in its review of his testimony. About 300 policemen, some with German shepherds, were on'hand when the presidential party left Salzburg. In contrast, about 20 persons braved the rain and 50-degree temperatuure to see Nixon off. They gasped as he stumbled on the slick steps into the plane but he did not fall.

Clear Weather Expected Tonight Scattered showers and possibly a few thundershowers were expected in Pennsylvania today with clear weather expected by tonight. A ridge of high pressure will build over the state tonight, bringing the clearing and cool temperatures. Lows will be in the40's andSO's. It was expected to be sunny Thursday with high temperatures in the 60's and 70's. Montevideo, Uruguay, is the southernmost capital in the western hemisphere.
