At the Lucky International in San Francisco, a bogey on the 72nd hole kept him from winning and forced the playoff which he lost to Chi Chi Rodriguez.

Jack Nicklaus left for the east after winning the Phoenix Open championship last Sunday. Also bypassing the Tucson event are U.S.

Court Next Door To The Fair City Council, Finley Still Negotiating KANSAS CITY (AP)-A negotiation session between the City Council 1 and President Charles 0. Finley of the Kansas City Athletics broke up late Wednes-ling day with the two sides still far apart over a lease on Municipal Stadium. "It ain't gonna be anything but a two-year you can sit here until midnight," Finley said. His attorneys claimed that the city was taking advantage of him by refusing to budge from at least a four-year lease.

The American League has ordered Finley to sign a lease for his Kansas City Athletics by midnight Friday, or face expulsion the league. Mayor Ilus Davis asked Finley, "Would you like to tell us what concessions you've made since Jan. 16?" "I haven't made any and I'm not going to make any," Finley retorted. With that, the meeting broke up. 35-minute closed session involving Finley's two attorneys, mayor and city attorney produced no new proposals.

Adjournment came 15 minutes after that session was finished. An initial 90-minute meeting brought no progress. At the outset, Finley proposed a two-year lease, same offer he has been making in recent meetings. The city held out for four years. After a short recess Mayor Ilus W.

Davis and Herbert C. Hoffman, city attorney, held a closed conference with Finley's New York lawyers, Gerald Phillips and George Berger. The A's owner did not participate in this 35-minute session. When it broke up, the two sides went into separate conferences. "Two years or nothing," Finley insisted throughout the preliminary session.

He has contended a lease for longer than two years might force him into bankruptcy.
