fM'A Tuesday, June 27, 1972 KU Golf in the family argent likes the w-h-o-l-e thing ft PCCs The club pro" i By LUTHER GOLDEN Assistant Sports Editor Like most club professionals, Jack Sargent likes the WHOLE thing. He likes every aspect of his job and won't trade with anyone. Pensacola Country Club's head pro has been around the game of golf since he was a child, and although he was a salesman for 10 years, he can't understand what ever possessed him to leave golf. "My basic job is to run the golf program," says Sargent. "Basically, three men are in charge of the club.

Cecil Rohr-berger runs things inside, Stanley Files is the greens superintendent and is in charge of course maintenance and my assistants and I handle the remainder of the golf responsibilities." Sargent owns the PCC pro shop. "I buy the merchandise and eat it if I don't sell It," he says. Sargent is an expert on the rules of golf. There is a sign which hangs in the PCC golf shop which sums up his feelings on the subject: "The game ceases to be golf when the rules are broken at leisure." "At the most, only about two per cent of the golfers play by the rules. Some of this is ignorance of the rules, but many golfers just don't want to go by the rules." 'Only about two per cent of the golfers play by the rules' Sargent 1957 to I960 and is currently the pro at the Atlanta Athletic Club Country Club.

The late golfing great Bob Jones was a friend of Sargent's family. Sargent spent 1943 to 1945 in the Air Force as navigator on a B-29. When he came out of the service, he joined a company and traveled selling records one year and carpet nine years. "I dnn't know why I ever got into the carpet business." Jack took a golf job with his brother in 1953, became head pro at Peachtree Country Club in 1956 and came to PCC in 19f8. Like other club pros, Sargent's working hours are long, but he isn't complaining.

"If you're looking at the hours, you'll never get into this business." Serving a portion of the club's 650 members keeps Sargent busy. But he couldn't imagine sitting in an office, anyway. "I own one suit and it's 15-20 years old." Second of 10 parts The native of Columbus, Ohio, who grew up in Atlanta, is on the rules committee for two of the world's top professional tournaments the Masters and the PGA Championship. He also is a member of the rules committee for the Ryder Cup matches (America vs. the British Isles) when these matches are played in the U.S.

Sargent has worked at the Masters or the past 13 years, and believes that charges of racial discrimination by blacks are unfounded. "I believe that anyone, no matter who he is, who meets the requirments can play in the Masters," he says. Sargent's family background is rich in golf. His father George was the National Open champion in 1909 and served as president of the Professional Golfers Association from 1921 to 1926. Jack's brother Harold was president of the PGA from Weather plays havoc with swimming fv Luther Golden Assistant Sports Editor Tom Robinson On Water Sports I AREA SWIMMERS must wonder when they will get a break in the weather.

That's because we have Bobby Fischer, the Brooklyn prodigy whose disposition would have to improve to be described as merely "irascible." Bobby is about to be sacrificed on the altar of diplomatic expedience, a tragic patriot in the mold of Douglas Mac-Arthur, Gary Powers or the Lafayette Escadrille. We're sending him up in a coffin. We're sending him into battle handcuffed. Bobby has won all the skirmishes in this conflict. He routed a collection of Russian shock troops in Argentina a year ago with almost bored case.

The Uni'ed States is walking into another Communist trap! It's going to be the same old story. It's going to be a conflict of their choosing, on their grounds, under their terms. It's going to be the same old crud, a conflict we probably can't via because a stalemate is almost built in. It's going to have demilitarized zones, sanctuaries, the whole lot. International quicksand.

"People talk about all the money golfers make. As for me, I like my chances better in Insurance. I'd like to make a bet that the top 15 moneymakers on the golf tour don't come close to earning as much as the top is men in insurance" Bids for the construction of the University of Kentucky's new 50,000 seat football stadium are to be opened July 13.

'I -a Si -4 4 i ft 1 Royal dethroned Dream eludes Slayback By HAL BOCK Aitoclaltd Pratt Sport Wrilar Bill Slayback is on a baseball treadmill. He keeps pitching more no-hit innings but keeps getting farther away from a no-hitter. Recalled from Toledo by the Detroit Tigers on Monday, Slayback hurled seven hitless innings against New York his lirst major league appearance, but then needed ninth inning help for a 4-3 victory over the Yankees.

Johnny Callison's lcadoff single in the eighth left Slay, back two innings short of a pitcher's dream. But he was even closer to a no-hitter in his last International Leag'i' start when he fell two outs short in a seven-inning game against Charleston. The Tigers, who thought they were through with musician pitchers when they got rid of Denny McLain, are happy to have another one on thfjir hands in Slayback. He plavs guitar, drums and bass in night clubs during the off-season and also paints portraits, "to make ends meet." It's a problem he won't have very long if he keeps pitching the way he did against the Yankees. Elsewhere in the American League Monday night, Milwaukee shut out Ealtimnre 3-0, Cleveland dropped Boston 7-3, Minnesota downed California 7-4, Kansas City defeated Chicago 4-1, and Oakland blanked Texas 3-0.
