12 THE GUARDIAN Saturday September 12 1964 SPORTS REPORT Equestrianism Athletict Miss Hodson wins a trip to Tokio Men start well against France British women hold the Americans High hopes for the Curtis Cup Bv PAT WARD-THOMAS RODDA Miss D. Arden (No. 1) winning the invitation 100 metres in 11.8sec. at the White City last night Lawn Tennis Meade wins three-day trial By NESTA ROBERTS R. J.

H. Jleade and Barberry yesterday won the Burghley Three-Day Event at Stamford with a clear round in the show jumping phase, leaving intact the plus total of 61.3 points which they had gained at the end of Thursday's cross-country. Second came the German combination of J. Mehrdorf and Iltschi (42.9), who had changed places with Britain'a Olympic short list candidate R. S.

Jones and Master Bernard. The jumping fault bv Master Bernard, who did not look entirely at his ease over the round, reduced his credit balance from 45.3 to 35.3 and Put him down to third place. Meade and Barberry were not on the short list but their performance, following their success at the Bridge Trials, must make them strong candidates for inclusion in the event party of four riders with five riders (one a reserve) which will go to Tokyo. The Olympic selectors were meeting that night and will announce the teams at the beginning of next week. The two reasonable certainties, J.

Templer with M'Lord Connolly and M. Bullcn with Sea Breeze, have been appearing at Stamford ftors concours, the latter taking no part in the cross country and the former jumping less than a dozen fences. Reshuffle Master Bernard's one toult cannot have spoiled his chances but, though Mrs S. Waddington and Glenamoy yesterday lumped a demonstration clear round which pulled them up from thirteenth to tenth place, Thursday's misfortunes hi the cross-country are likely to stand against them. It was hard luck, for Glenamoy haj the look of a genuine horse and he is a beautiful dressage performer.

As a result of the show jumping phase there was a reshuffle among the runners-up. On Thursday D. Allhuscn and his excellent Loch-invar stood fourth with 41.3 bonus points. Yesterday Lochinvar stopped at the water so deciredly that his rider was decanted. When he took it at the third attempt he put a foot in.

One other fault plus the time penalties sent him down to fourteenth, with a debit of 49.2 points. This let E. A. Boylan and Durlas Eile In to fourth place from fifth. They deserved It.

though Durlas Eile dropped ten points for apparently mistaking an oxer for an Irish bank and trying to change feet on top of it. if only for the acrobatic action by which he cleared the second fence after an impossible-looking a ff. Fine chance for Welsh and Scottish juniors By David Gray Without any of the winners youngest of the survivors, steadily conceding more than live games, fusht back from 0-a to the four major seeds reached the tl sthh 2rcse. singles finals at Junior Wimble- doubWbou't don yesterday and now, after the second. Williams was happier enduring so many lean years in at the back of the court than at vFn 1 tU.

A Inkhail made a tremendous bid after lunch to restore matters. Miss Gunderson's rhythm and timing were perfect; she hit the ball with superb strength and poor Mrs Bonallack could find no lasting answer. The American was out in 33 and four under par for the match, ruthless stuff. An example of her power came at the eighth, where she hit the heart of the green with her second and holed for a genuine eagle." The game then slipped swiftly away from Mrs Bonallack. Miss Mclntire was not quite so merciless and Mrs Spearman, out in par and one down, gallantly held on.

She holed a good putt to halve the tenth and when she squared with another of five yards for a two at the fourteenth leapt high for joy. Thereafter she had the winning of the but missed from six feet on the fifteenth and sixteenth. Then the unexpected happened and the dark, inscrutable Miss Mclntire for once faltered, smothering her second to the seventeenth, and Mrs Spearman was one up. Bad lie The eighteenth was severe into wind. Mrs Spearman's drive was slightly pulled into a horrible lie.

whence she had no real hope of a four, but Miss Mclntire struck probably the most beautiful shot of all the day. a spoon under the wini to 10 feet, holed, and a most just result was achieved. Miss Lawrence is an extraordinary performer, whose game depends almost entirely on wonderful chipping, holing out, and determination. Miss Conley, a feminine miniature of Nicklaus, lost the first three holes, the second cruelly through ignorance of the rules by herself and those around her. Afterwards she out-hit Miss Lawrence hugely, but was held until the very end by her opponent's remarkable short game.

Miss Conley's pulled second to the eighteenth was stopped by spectators from going into a dangerous place, and a fine chip enabled her to halve the hole and win after Miss Lawrence had holed from four yards. Last of all Miss Porter, as a grey gauze of drizzle came in from the sea, became dormy on Miss Roth. Miss Porter had played her own admirably steady game all through the day, unheeding and almost unseeing all that went about her. She lost the seventeenth, and could not get home in two at the last, but she to 12 feet. As she holed expressionlessly for the match, a great and deserving cheer for her and the British echoed forth.

jnd smashed most effectively. If -SHE todnv. it will be a double for Mill- All Is to play for in the Curtis Cup match at Porthcawl. After a memorable and stirring day's golf the British and Americans won four matches each and Mrs Spearman halved a great match with Miss Mclntire, the American champion. Throughout the land hopes can quicken that the cup may return to Britain after four years' absence.

In winning itwo foursomes the British achieved all that could have been hoped for. Mrs Bonallack and Mrs Spearman played with great authority and composure. They made no kind of error in turning in 37, exact par, and were two up. Mrs Bonallack was slightly left with her shot to the narrow waist of the 10th green and was bunkered, and the British took three from the front edge of the twelfth. Then Miss Preuss missed from two feet This was the crisis for the American and the exact moment for a telling British thrust, and how superbly they made it two perfect woods and a sweetly played run up by Mrs Bonallack won the hole in four.

Miss Preuss seemed apprehensive and her proneness to hook was evident. When she missed from six feet at the fifteenth, Britain was almost safe. Unperturbed Meanwhile Miss Porter and Miss Vaughan were covering themselves with glory. Miss Vaughan's precious tranquility of mind is a rare asset. She putted magnificently, holing crucially on the second and fourth for halves and then chipping dead to win the fifth after a terrible drive by Miss Both, who fluffed a simple chip from behind the seventh.

Britain were two up a lead that Miss Vaughan's infallible holing out protected. Although Miss Roth holed a chip in winning the tenth, the British continued with calm, implacable, controlled golf. Now it was Miss Porter's splendid turn. A fine chip, won the thirteenth and her chip to the fifteenth almost holed out. The British were level par, a great performance.

The American captain had fallen into the error as the British did at Lindrick by pairing the weak with the strong. Miss Mclntire and Miss Gunder-son, formidable together, separately could not redeem their partner's failing. The third match was disastrous for Britain. Had Miss Jackson holed for halves at the first and third, they might have made a game of it but the Americans, by far the strongest pair, played faultlessly. They were two under par for 12 holes.

Miss Armitage had a fine beginning and made no mistakes for six holes, but then they were four and almost without hope. The great American spearhead Rugby Union Colourful visitors to Bridgend By David Frost Bridgend is very much in the sporting news this week. Two boys from the town have met success at Junior Wimbledon, the Curtis Cup match is taking place just down the road at Porthcawl, and now the first Rugby Union tour in Britain by Fijians begins this afternoon with a match against the combined strength of Bridgend and Maesteg on Bridgend's own Brewery Field. This Is only a short tour five matches in Wales followed by five in France but it promises to be both interesting and exciting. On their tours of New Zealand and Australia, the Fijians have built an enviable reputation for whirlwind attacking play based on bewilder-ingly quick passing and relentless backing-up.

If they can get a fair supply of the ball from the set-pieces and they have been concentrating on these chores more earnestly than they used to thev should provide the Welsh and French crowds with spctacular entertainment. As far as playing strength is concerned, Fiji have in the past beaten Australia, and the present side: is in full practice, having had plenty of football at home in the last few months under the new laws. No international match has been included in the Welsh part of this tour, though they will play a Welsh XV at Cardiff on September 26. They will, however, meet France in an international match at Colombes on October 17.

By JOHN An Olympic Games place and a United Kingdom allcomers' record of 2min. 5.3sec. in the 800 metres were the prizes last night at the White City, London, for Miss M. Hodson, aged 17, a schoolgirl from Morecambe. There were some splendid efforts by the men lo muster a lead of 57-49 in the athletics match with France, but Miss Hodson's running stood out as the supreme act of the evening.

It was not so much the tune that convinced the selectors but that surely was sufficient as the all out struggle along the length of the straight against Miss Packer which Hiss Hodson won in the last two strides. The Northern nirl had done some of the leading in the first lap which, completed in S3.5sec. indicated a ripe opportunity for Miss Packer to demonstrate her sprinting power. But after Miss Packer had moved away down the back straight Miss Hodson returned to the battle and showed- astonishing ability for such a young girl. Another string Miss Packer returned the same time and will also race in this event at the Olympic Games.

She has already been nominated for her first string event, the 400 metres. Miss Hodson will not receive official notification of her selection until this evening but officials relieved the tension by sending her to be measured for an Olympic uniform. Alsop added five and a quarter inches in hiss United Kingdom triple jump record with a leap of 52ft lljin in the third round and achieved the same distance with his fifth trial. The selectors' choice of Murray fo- the 10,000 metres was completely justified, for while Hill did most of the leading through the second half of the race, the French having failed to dislodge the Britons earlier with gentle but painless bursts of speed, Murray tightened the screws with a withering fifteenth lao in 66.4sec. This and his final run for home with 800 metres to go broke the Frenchman.

In the last lap there was not much power left but he had done more than enough and Hill gathered the glory when he released the power stored from his slow earlier laps to win the race. The sprinting in the relay and that of Miss Hyman showed some improvement hut it is far too early to get excited. Miss Hyman in an invitation 100 metres was third, well down behind Miss Arden, who won convincingly but not at the sort of speed one would have liked to have seen at this point in Olympic year. In the relay Miss Hyman was less tense, taking over with 'Spectaculars' make big film money The popularity of the high-budget spectacular film has severely hit the medium cost bread-and-butter film which seems likely to be on the way out, states the annual report of the National Film Finance Corporation published yesterday. Films costing fl million have been almost exclusively an American preserve but the report points out that such films offer scope to British interests on a co-financing basis.

Certain films costing between 300,000 and 800,000 hav also been successful but, films of medium cost in the 100,000 to 200,000 range, which in the past have been the bread-and-butter of the industry have already suffered severely and seem likely to decline still further." There are signs, encouraging though yet inconclusive, that the end of the industry's long retreat may be in sight. It is likely to remain a highly speculative business with great rewards for success and heavy penalties for failure. Worthwhile market "The low budget film for minority audiences is handicapped by the lack of suitable exhibition outlets in an industry whose structure and booking pattern still reflect its former position as the sole provider of mass entertainment. Nevertheless, the view is sainins cround that there is a worthwhile markets for such films. It would be a boon," the report continues, to many, if second features were to disappear from the industry's vocabulary and bo replaced by a freer market in supporting films with a variety of length and content qualifying for a fair share of the box office take.

"The opinion is widely held that pay-television, experimental transmissions of which are shortly to begin, may provide an outlet for a substantial volume of film production, though the form this will take and the manner of its financing remain uncertain." Purchase tax case adjourned The case in which nine men arc alleged to have been con cerned in a conspiracy to defraud Customs and Excise of more than 123,000 in purchase tax was adjourned until Thursday, sept-ember 17 at Marylebone Court, London, yesterday. Yesterclav was the third' day of the hearing in which about 125 witnesses are expected to be called. The men are charged with conspiring to cheat and defraud the Commissioners of Customs and Excise of purchase tax between July 1961, and May 21. 1H63. 4 plenty in hand, but the finishing power was stilt missing and although the British team recorded its fastest time this season.

Jones's Olympic aspirations must have faded with the night. toe ne was last in the luu metres. He must stake everything upon his 200 metres and a relay run this afternoon. Simpson was far more relaxed" at some points almost casual. 4linn Vin has hiin ttiic enaenn when winning the 1.500 metres after some bumping by Nicolas he ran a last lap of SS.6sec.

Death from injuries in ntoll ri juij ai a iaiai inquiry on a man who died from injuries received In a Glasgow police cell was cautioned yesterday against making, a finding that the police were guilty of assault. The jury returned a unanimous formal verdict that William Birnie, aged 27, of James Orr Street, Glasgow, sustained head injuries in cell number six on July 31.

The. verdict added that as a result of his injuries he died in the Royal Infirmary because of a fracture of the skull, subdural haemorrhage, contusion, and laceration of the brain. Sheriff J. M. Cowan told th jury it had developed that Mr Birnie had sustained his injuries either by falling and hitting his head on a metal heater in the cell or as a result of force used by the police.

In a warning to the jury, against making a finding that the, notice were enlltv of assault said that evidence that would Qlinnnrt thaf wsc ronllu cnrrt.g to make it wholly unsuitable. 150,000 to start business schools Ford of Britain is giving 150,000 to help to establish' business schools at Manchester and London universities. British industry has been asked to raise at least 3 millions, half the cost of establishing the schools and maintaining them for the first seven years. Mr L. J.

E. Beeson, director of industrial relations, said; "We are doing our best to help in bridging the gap between university and industry." In the past, young men and women who wanted a career in industry and- commerce have found It almost impossible to obtain the basic L-nntflollin txt Vn rt ore nmaniea. lion and management control techniques.

Scotland, who have not won a title since the perservering Miss ocauey icurcvcu (iul way to 5UC- cess in 1947, depend upon the old Ornnrr stel. of Mice Sh, nine. gow schoolgirl, who meets Miss Townsend (Warwickshire) in the girls' final.

Wales, who have not won either singles event since the war, are represented in the boys' final by the quick wit and graceful talent of Battriek, who has been the favourite from the start. He meets Lloyd (Essex), whose swift attack disposed of Williams, Bat trick's fellow Welshman and fellow-Bridgendian, yesterday. Weak point The dav was full of anticlimaxes. Miss Shaw set the pattern by deleating Cheshire's hope, Miss Cullen-Smith, by 0-1. 6-3.

There had been three rehearsals for this match in recent weeks and each time Miss Shaw had won by pursuing the simple strategy of exploiting Miss Cullen-Snutlt's unsteadiness on the forehand Here forehand, indeed, was sucn a weakness yesterday that Miss Shaw, hitting and moving happily and confidently, found that a shot to that wing usually gained her any point that she needed. Nor did she give Miss Cullen-Smith much' chance to settle down at the start She dropped only one point in the first three games and Miss Cullen-Smith only won that with the help of the net-cord. Yorkshire fared almost as dismally as Cheshire. Miss Mappin, who is usually so forceful, began nervously and soon found herself enchained by Miss Townsend's clever placlngs and shrewd variations of mice and sDin. It will be interesting to see whether Miss townseno managea to upset Miss 4U Shaw's sturdy power in the same way mis aiiemoon.

Battriek beat Woodward (Warwickshire) 6-2, 6-2 and he was helped, as so many of Woodward's opponents are, by the weakness the Warwickshire boy's service. Woodward hit some clever shots, but these did not compensate for the points that he tamely surrendered. Williams, at 15 li SCOTTISH LEAGUE Division I Aberdeen v.

Lunt and Thirwcll however finished strongly. As far as England were concerned 1 points were all they deserved and the perfect four obtained by Christmas and Stockdale at the eighteenth won the invaluable half point in question. Back to the singles. After Shay and Sadler had added to Scotland's lead in the foursomes Lunt won a hard game from Campbell but Green put Scotland lne almost impregnable position of five-up with six to play by defeating Foster. But one after another England's last six held gallanUy to their slender lead or refused to go behind.

Burgess played his best in defeating Renfrew and was able to join in support of the remaining five. First of these was Bonallack. the champion, and he holed a seven-foot putt to win. Then Christmas played the eigheenth perfectly in four to win and he was followed by Thirwell, who holed from a yard to halve with Cosh and remain undefeated durins the meeting. Both Clark and Stockdale were dormv 1 and both rather adventurously halved the all important hole, the latter after hitting a second into the burn and then playing a glorious low-running shot to feet and holing the putt-Ireland had little trouble In defeating Wales, whose young side had a disappointing three days.

Match Result. ScoUand England 7 with two halved. By a Special At 7 15 yesterday evening, B. Stockdale the last man in the English team, holed a fine putt of six feet to win his match and complete a remarkable team recovery against Scotland. After being two points behind in the foursomes, England found that they had to win five of the last six singles, and obtain a half in the other, to win the Raymond trophy and the triple crown.

This they did and in every case but one on the eighteenth green. No previous series in the international matches have ended in such tingling excitement, for In none of these last matches was there more than a hole between the sides over the last few holes. The foursomes play between England and Scotland was the most disappointing of the week in B. J. Hunt and Snell have best round B.

J. Hunt (Hartsbourne) and D. Snell (Worksop) shared the lead with E. C. Brown (Cruden Bay) and D.

Talbot (Nottingham) with 146 in the "Sir Stuart Goodwin's 1.000 Ryder Cup reunion foursomes tournament at Hallamshire yesterday. Their second round of 70 was the best score in testing conditions. Brown and Talbot had rounds of 74 and 72. All 10 of Uie British Ryder Cup team that gained such a memorable victory at Lindrick in 1957 had accepted Sir Stuart's invitation to take part in the event, and each was partnered by a selected Yorkshire or Nottinghamshire professional. -Unhappily.

C. O'Connor, who was taken ill in Sheffield tbo previous day. did not play, and J. Buchanan, the home clubs assistant, deputised for him as partner to H. W.

Muscroft (Moor Allerton). Hunt and Snell. after struggling to the turn in 40 in a morning 7G, never looked back. They covered the remaining 27 holes in two under fours and finished their afternoon round of 70 by taking single putts, for fours at the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth and for a three at the eighteenth (495 yards).
