I Palmer Six Strokes Back AKRON, Ohio (AP) Doug Sanders, a young player with an unorthodox golf game, shot one of his best all-time rounds Saturday to go into the lead in the PGA Championship at the 54-hole mark. Sanders, playing what he termed "real good golf," fired a third-round 69 over the sun-baked. 7.165-yard, par 35-3570 Firestone Country Club course and gained a one-stroke lead over three rivals with one round to go in the tournament. The Firestone course, supposedly made tougher, turned out to be surprisingly easy for the 94 remaining pros in the tournament.

A late rally gave the Cards a tie with one run in the eighth. Missed One Shorting the circuits: Florida State misfired on its efforts to sign a third brother of the Norfolk, Versprille clan to a football grant. Alabama got him Earlier, the Seminoles had halfback Pat Versprille whose promise was kayoed by injury, and halfback George Versprille, whose promise was kayoed by classroom shortcomings. George, now at Howard College in Birmingham, was the big factor in heading younger brother to Alabama. FSU Coach Bill Peterson was out daring the week ai aa bserver at the practice camp of the Lot Angelei Chargers, new entry la the American Football League coached by Sid Gillman One of the surprises In the Chargers camp: Riley Morris, former AAM player.

Least regarded of three ex-Rattlers to try out with the Chargers, Morris was the only one to survive. Center Willie Taylor was deemed too short and fullback Jesse Herd hurt a knee. Morris, a tackle with the Rattlers, Is backing up the line for the Chargers, is touted as the fastest man In camp, made the first seven tackles In one scrimmage. You can't beat that confidence of Arnold Palmer's. After carding a 64 in practice for the PGA, Palmer was kiddingly asked why he didn't save the round for the real firing.

"I'm not worried," aid Palmer, "I can do it again." A publication, "Athletic Coaching in Florida Schools," is getting a reprint for national distribution to coaches all over the country. Prepared by the Florida State Dept. of Education, the booklet was adopted for national use by the American Assn. for Health, Physical Education and Recreation. Royal Had No Other Choice Danny Royal, UF's' All-America tackle hopeful, has been counted definitely out for any more football.

As a boy back In Camilla, Royal lost one eye. Head injuries precipitated the possibility of loss of sight in the other eye if he got another sharp blow on the head. Royal, with a wife and young son, made the only. decision he could have made Sports Illustrated is out this week with a most controversial article allowing as how baseball's National League is vastly superior to the American League mainly because it has four times as many Negro players. How would yon like to have an auto from which yon could extract 89' 4 miles per gallon of gas? A modified compact car got that In a recent economy test The carburetor air cleaner was removed.

One carburetor that was in operation was leaned down to one Jet. The distributor was modified to conform to the engine operation which was set to nse only three of six cylinders. Spark plugs were set for maximum efficiency for three cylinders and the car was power-timed on the road for the best possible operation. The wheel bearings bad vaseline Instead of the usual heavier lubricant and the engine oil and other lubricants were replaced with the lightest oil available all that means. A bowling survey indicates that, with tremendous increase in participation, the odds of regular pro-type bowlers knocking off a 800 game are down to 600 to 1 But more casual bowlers get a 300 game only once every 480,000 times out.

Such an accomplishment, someone has figured, should cost only about $240,000. The Dope On a Perfect End Cleaning up his office the other day, Jimmy Gay, UFs sports publicity director, ran across this intriguing description of an end: "I consider him the greatest all around end I ever saw. He is a splendidly-built boy, weighing 182 pounds, standing six feet and one half inches and extremely fast. There possibly have been better blocking ends In history of football among men physically larger but It is the combination of abilities that make him the Meal player. "He is the best pass receiver among ends I have ever seen and once in possession of the ball, he runs like a halfback.

His ability in this line is amazing. He never misses passes and he never falls to tear off yardage upon receiving the ball. His tackling Is sure and fierce. "He is foxy, knows how to smash down interference and get his man. I've yet to see any team make a foot at his side of the line.

And two more qualities that I can say of him he is an unusually smart player, and has beautiful team spirit. There is not ene selfish vein in his body." The end was Dale Van Sickle, member of Florida's fine '28 team and the school's first All-American. The was- penned by Coach Charley Bachman and it went to Grantland Rice, who was helping pick an Ail-American team for Collier's and had requested information on Van Sickle. Bob Shaw, with ninth-inning help from fireman Gerry Staley, re corded his ninth victory of the season as the surging White Sox extended their winning streak to seven in a row, including two straight over the Yankees. Al Lopez' hot club has now won 21 of their last 29, dating back to June 21 when they were in fifth place.

Whitey Ford, Yankee ace, was the victim of Chicago's 11-hit as sault. The veteran southpaw was tagged for nine hits and all the runs before he gave way to Ralph Terry in the sixth. The loss evened his season record at 6-6. Minoso's fifth-inning single drove home Luis Aparicio, who had opened with a walk and had stolen his 25th base. Minnie's RBI tied the score at 1-1.

New York had scored in the first on a single by Hector Lopez and Yogi Ber- ra's double.

Arnold Palmer, the Open and Masters champion and favorite in this tournament, ran afoul of the fearsome 16th hole and wound up six strokes back at 216. Palmer found about every imaginable trouble on the 625-yard 16th and took an eight, three over par. Then he bogied the last two holes.

It was a day of thrills and excitement for 11,347 cash customers who made up a record gallery for the third round. With all the top contenders except Ferrier in the last two threesomes, the mob gathered to watch the lead change almost hole by hole. It was a day when Ben Hogan, without a birdie for 54 holes, failed to make the 54-hole cut and when Cary Middlecoff had to sweat out a long committee meeting before PGA officials decided merely to reprimand him for slow play instead of penalizing him. Hogan, with a third found 78 for 225, missed the cutoff point by one stroke. The last time Hogan failed to make the cut in a tournament was in the 1957 Masters.

Even he couldn't remember when he had played 54 holes without a birdie. Sanders, who will be 27 Sunday, has been a top performer on the pro tour for about three years. His biggest victory was in the Canadian Open, while he still was an amateur. It was a superb putting exhibition that put him out in front. On the front nine he holed putts of 10 feet, 6 inches, 40 feet, 10 feet and 50 feet for birdies on the front nine.

A double bogey six at the third hole, where he hit his approach into the pond on front of the green, took the benefits of his first two birdies. He also bogied the 12th and 13th by missing the greens before he canned a 30-foot birdie putt at the 15th. Ferrier, another unorthodox swinger who won the PGA title in 1947, sneaked in almost unnoticed since he had started six strokes off the lead. A fine putter, he holed five birdies, including a seven-footer that hung on the lip of the cup at the 10th before dropping in, and a 15-footer at the last hole. The long, narrow Firestone course, supposedly tightened up severely, presented no particular problems to the better-known pros today.

In addition to Ferrier's 66, there was a 68 by Dave Ra-gan and four 69s as many sub-par rounds as there had been in the first two days of the tournament. In Open fending champion, and Miss Rawls, shooting for her fourth Open crown, slipped to 40s. Miss Rawls, playing one of the best rounds of her professional career, came from seven strokes off the pace and tied Miss Wright or the lead in the morning 18 holes'. Betsy put together a 32-3668 morning round over the par 35-37 72 Worcester Country Club course, matching the Women's Open record. Mickey, the leader through the first two days, had 39-3675.

Miss Wright, who had been bothered by an ailing knee in her practice rounds, said she had no troubles on that score Saturday. Sanders Goes After Birthday Present AKRON, Ohio (AP) Doug Sanders goes after the Betsy Rawls Tops Waterford, on the first nine, but rallied and pulled it out with a 2-under-par 35 on the last nine. Miss Ziske, who trailed Betsy and Mickey by three strokes at the end of 54 holes, came in with a 73, one stroke back in second place. Tall, blonde Mickey's 299 was good for fifth, one stroke back of Mrs. Marlene Bauer Hagge, Crystal and Mary Lena Faulk, Sea Island, who tied for third.

Miss Ziske had a par 35 on the front nine in the afternoon final round, while Miss Wright, the de- WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) -Betsy Rawls overcame a seven-stroke deficit and steadily mounting pressure Saturday and won an unprecedented fourth U.S. Women's Open Golf title with a 292. The Spartansburg, S.C., golfer fired a brilliant, 4-under-par 68 in the morning round, wiping out the seven-stroke lead built up by defending champion Mickey Wright, San Diego, in the first two days. Then, in the afternoon, she fell two strokes back of Joyce Ziske, Peterson, Mancha biggest birthday present of The gangling youngster from Cedartown, playing out of Miami Beach, carries a one-stroke edge into the final round of the 42nd PGA championship, against the best shotmakers in the land, on his 27th birthday.

Galleryites who watched the tall, curly-haired former University of Florida star carve out a 69 over Firestone Country Club's treacherous acres Saturday for a 54-hole total of 210 even par-wonder how he did it. Sanders probably has the most unorthodox stance and swing in golfdom. He looks like a weekend duffer as he spreads his feet wide on every shot, and his backswing hardly reaches his neck line as he punches the ball. But his blazing putter was a magic wand Saturday as he sank one putt of 6 inches, two from 10 feet, and others from 30, 40 and 50 feet for birdies. The latter came on" the 450-yard eighth, and Sanders said it was much longer than the 50 feet credited by the feminine scorer who accompanied him.
