Paul Martello provided the big blow for Helena Wednesday night, stroking a three-run home run in the top of the ninth. Kim Hurley had lined a solo shot over the fence in the fifth inning. Helena wasted very little time getting on the scoreboard as Hurley singled with two outs in the first inning, stole second and rode home on Martello's season, reeled off his ninth gram, although it may give more attention to minor sports, straight victory with a six-hitter and chipped in with a home run, his third of the year, to Bill Racicot, athletic director at Who Needs Him? And how, pray tell, could the Cincinnati slugger, batting a solid .291 with 24 homers and 69 runs batted in both tops in the majors possibly be making mistakes? "Oh, we had some kind of a signal," Bench said, "where I'd look over at Lou and he'd indicate to me any mistakes I was making. Yeah, he pointed out a couple of things," he added but he wouldn't say what he was doing wrong. Nobody else has been able to figure that out either.

Tony Perez countered a Pittsburgh first-inning run with his 14th homer in the second. Then, two innings later, with a runner on third, Bench leaned into Luke Walker's outside fastball and parked it over the right field wall to put the Reds ahead BOXING COMMISSIONER One of the newest breakthroughs for women into a man's world is Consumer Protection Commissioner Barbara B.

Tommy Hilgendorf replaced Lamb on the mound and was greeted by May's single to center that made a winner out of Wood. The White Sox ace finished with a nine-hitter. Rookie Bill Slayback scattered eight hits while his Detroit mates took advantage of Texas errors for a pair of unearned runs enroute to victory over the Rangers.

"I know I can play better than I did in the opening round here," Jack said.

"My swing isn't far off what it should be. It's a matter of timing. Maybe I'll do a little more practice." Defending champion Lee Tre-vino was one stroke behind Nicklaus with a par 71, along with South Africa's Gary Player, bidding for his third British Open crown. Doug Sanders, runner-up to Nicklaus in the championship at Muirfield, in 1966 and St. Andrews in 1970, also fashioned a 71.

Nicklaus shot a one-undcr-par 70 in Wednesday's first round over the Murifield course.

He was two strokes behind the leader, little-known British pro Peter Tupling, and one behind Britain's Tony Jacklin. Nicklaus, overwhelming favorite to win his third British crown, shared third place with two other American players, Frank Beard and Dave Marr, and two Britons, Peter Towns-end and Craig DeFoy. "My mood and attitude are fine after that first round where I didn't play too well but still managed a fair score," Nicklaus said. "I'm relaxed." 240 lb.

"It's quite serious, lie may not at all," a member of Fischer's entourage who asked not to lie identified. Fischer was scheduled to meet the world champion from the Soviet Union later today at 1 p.m. EDT for the second game of their 24-game match. The American challenger lost the first game Wednesday night.

Fischer staged a 30 minute walkout shortly after the play began Wednesday, complaining that a movie camera 150 feet away was making him nervous. The camera was hardly visible in the dimness outside the lighted players' circle, and it could not be heard by Fischer, but aides said the knowledge of its presence unnerved him. Chief referee Lothar Schmid of West Germany, who makes the decisions on all contested points in connection with the match, told Fischer during his walkout there was nothing he could do about the camera. Film and television rights for the match have been sold to an American promoter, and Fischer and Spassky are to get a share of the proceeds, estimated at a minimum of $27,500 each.

Stein said that at one point Fischer walked in on the meeting, listened for a few minutes and then in a few sentences indicated he was adamant about expelling the cameras. Then he went to bed. In agreement with Lombardy and Cramer, Stein wrote Fischer a letter at 5 o'clock this morning appealing to the challenger to accept the presence of the cameras and go on playing.

"I hope the letter will move him." Stein said. Schmid said he was prepared to invoke two rules of the mach against Fischer. Rule 17 prohibits in the name of "the highest principles of sportsmanship" that either player "distract or annoy his opponent." Rule 21 allows the taking of pictures during the match by official photographers as long as the cameras are "neither visible nor audible."
