The bracketing assured, a college player in the final for the first time since 1951 as Dick Foote, a junior at UCLA, met Tom Aaron, a Florida senior. Texan Billy Maxwell won it that year. In the ether semi two 34-year-elds dueled Charlie Coo of Oklahoma City, who, won the national title in 1949, end Roger McManus of Cincinnati, who says he hopes he's better salesman than a golfer. This quartet, with a.

distinct southern flavor McManus was born in South Carolina survived from the original field of 200 which started over the Olympic Country Club's lake course Monday. For both Foote and Aaron, this is the first time in the U.S. Amateur. "I came here hoping to play well enough to make the Walker Cup team," declared Aaron, the Southeastern Conference champion. The 21-year-old from Gainesville, ousted former titlist Dick Chapman and 1956 run-" nerup Chuck Kocsis in yesterday's two rounds.

With fairly stable weather, the boatman can go about the task at an unhurried, pleasant pace. Take a good look at varnished surfaces, such as decks, coaming and floorboards. If the finish has become dull, give it a light sanding and a coat of varnish. But if it has checked or.

peeled and the" wood has started to discolor, you have waited too long and must take it down to the wood then bleach, fill, stain and build up a new layer of at least four coats of varnish. At this point some owners give up, end cover their bright work with paint, but if you want to preserve that original yachty appearance, there's no short cut! Deep gouges in varnished work call for special consideration. Treat the bare wood with a preservative such as cuprinol, allow to dry thoroughly, then fill with a surfacing putty or wood dough. Sand until smooth. Then make a small amount of varnish stain by adding a few drops of mahogany stain to good quality spar varnish, brush it on the patched area, remove and try again until you get a combination which matches the surrounding wood finish.

Save the remainder of the final mix for future patch jobs. No such problem exists where the nicks or gouges art en painU ed surfaces. Simply treat the wood with preservative, fill, and paint. There are some new plastic fillers on the market with astonishing qualities. One is an epoxie resin compound.

It is mixed with a catalyst, which starts the hardening process, then spreads on like putty. After it is thoroughly cured, it becomes tough and hard, and can be sanded smooth before painting. The material is nonporous. If you have a deep gouge below the water line, do not attempt to fill it until the hull Moonlight Cruise N.Y., belted him out of the tourney, 3 and 2, in yesterday's fifth round. Wettlaufer himself was ousted in the quarter-finals yesterday afternoon by Roger McManus of Cincinnati, 3 and 2.

"You know," sold McManus, "driving usually is the best part of my game. Here it has not been good but I've been putting better then usual." His 8-year-old son, Roger Jr, bestowed the best accolade, a jumping hug after daddy halved the 18th to win.

Years ago, McManus and Coe were friends at The Citadel in Charleston, S.C.

Cullinan's group spearheaded a successful campaign that saw Harris County residents on July 26 give a 4-1 vote of approval to a revenue bond proposal for a county stadium and snorts No efforts have been made to make personal appearances before the major leagues and no plans are under way at present to attend the fall meeting. But Cullinan does not rule out the possibility. The new county Board of Park Commissioners already has architects and engineers at work studying possible sites and developing other studies," he said.

"It may be that within the next month or so we'll have some idea as to a site and some idea as to what the stadium might look like." HOUSTON WANTS EXISTING CLUB The syndicate's hopes are simple. "Our first choice is to purchase an existing franchise," Cullinan said. "Failing in this, our choice will be to obtain a franchise that might become available should either or both leagues expand. We prefer an existing franchise, but are not closing the door on anything." The park board's job ef financing construction of the huge sports center has been simplified by an offer by the Houston stock show to support the project with gift of 230 acres of land that already has a dozen producing oil wells. A major league franchise still is considered the key to the overall financial program, but the stock show's offer is a tremendous boost in that the master plan not only includes a baseball-football stadium, but a air- NATIONAL LEAGUE CLUB VS.
