That player is Andy Bottln, young ccnterlielder who played here in 1968 and who has since been in Ihe service. Andy has been assigned to Oneonta lor his "comeback" year and Yankee officials said yesterday the popular youngster likes Oneonta so well he decided to come back early and renew a lew old acquantances. The Yankee camp is scheduled to get under way June 14 in Damaschlce Field.

A fond farewell at least as far as tennis is concerned to William A. (I can never slop calling him Pirone who has wound up a a tastically successful career as 01IS tennis coach. 1 covered him as a high school Tennis report Ky Boh ttnms star under George Waddington and I covered him ts a coach. He an expert on tennis and that one of the reasons for his success as a net coach. But more than that, his rapport with the school pupils is what makes him a good teacher and a great coach.

No matter what the sport, he would have teen a success. It is always difficult to see a coach of this caliber step down lor we need all we can get of this type of man in the field of competitive Jim Campbell had advised us of plans for a Delaware County soccer league this fall. Teams will be made up of anyone interested in the sport provided they have used up all of their scholastic eligibility. "We don't want any problems along this line," said Campbell the other day.

(AP) Bobby Fischer, fresh from a one-sided victory here over Soviet grandmastef Mark Taima-. nov, says he is confident he will go on to win the word chess title. i a resigned Wednesday without further play in the adjourned sixth game of their- quarter-final elimination match to seek a challenger for the world crown, giving Fischer a 6-0 sweep of the best-of-10- match. "The Soviets have been putting up roadblocks for me for years, but I know I'm the best," said the 82-year-old Fischer, a native of Brooklyn, N.Y. "I should have been world champion 10 years ago." He said he stands to make "easily $100,000 a year as a professional.

He received $1,250 in prize money for his victory here while Taimanov got $750. Fischer, a grandmaster since he was 15, next meets Bent Larsen of Denmark in a semifinal scheduled to start July 4 at a site yet to be determined. The other semi-final starts 'July 4 in-Moscow between Tigr- am Petrosian and Viktor Kor- chrioi both of the U.S.S.R. The winner of the challenge will meet Spassky in 1972. formal schedule will be announced within a lew days.

Among the good news this is ihe item in which Lee Fisher says he will be at Charlotte Valley Central in Davr.e- port for another year. Like Prione at Oneonta, Fisher is the kind of fellow we don't like to see leave the area coaching ranks. He is a big, big man whom 1m' privileged to call a friend and 1 was really pleased to hear he'll be around for another season. The Kansas City Royals, who are interested in looking over any young man who can carry a glove or lift a bat, have looked at hundreds of youngsters over Ihe past few weeks and are going to check out boys from this area this month. They will conduct a Iryout camp at Albany's Bleeker Stadium June 26 (rain daet the 27th).

Boys selected from this tryout will be eligible for the Royal's Baseball Academy at Sarasota, Fla. Last year, the Royals selected 42 young men from 26 states afterlooking at 7,682 athletes. That's a lot of looking. We've had some static from people 1 who love horse shows and who figure we're not doing a good job covering them. Due to space limitations, we've been unable to give the full coverage to the shows which we'd hope to provide and had discussed at earlier planning sessions.

In an attempt to provide some coverage of these events we will take any and all legitimate horse show results in writing -but will use only first place in each event. It is the only way we can get them in The Star as the lull show reports consume more space than we can possibly allocate. My good buddy Ken Smith, director of the Baseball Hall of Fame, will be doing i speaking' thing at the annual Draper Central School athletic banquet in Schenevus Saturday night. I get my next chance to talk to scholastic athletes at the Unatego banquet June 12th at Unatego Central and I'm looking forward to it very much. My biggest assignment for the month not June, other tha covering the opening 'of the Oneonta Yankee schedule, will be coverage of the U.S.

Open golf tournament at Merion Country club, Ardmore, Pa. June 17 and 20. This one I'm really looking forward particularly if Gus 'Gryglel and Ed KrolTcan get through next Tuesday's competition a reach Merion. THE ONEONTA STAR, Qneonta, fn.

Tom Kite Melnyk and Jim Simons, current Walker Cup teammates, and Dr. Edgar Updegraff, a team member eight years ago, entered Friday's round of eight with two Scotsmen, an Irishman and a Briton. Updegraff, a 48-year-old urologist from Tucson, who won in overtime Thursday morning, took a lunch break then scored a convincing 4 and 3 victory over Ireland's Joe Carr. Carr, whose 20-year-old son, Roddy, made the final eight, also is 49 years old and twice a past British champion.

Bonallack, who had won the title live limes including an unprecedented three straight in 1968-69-70, was upset in the morning round when Mike Schwitz of South Africa took the match 4 and 3. But Schwitz, a 28-ytar-old lawyer, was a 4 and 2 victim of Scottish Walker Cup player Hugh Siuart in the afternoon. Thus, England's only hope for victory is Peter Moody, who advanced with a 4 and 3 verdict over J. K. Mclvor of Scotland.

Kite, a 21-year-old University a student from McKinney, entered the quarter-finals with 2 and 1 victories over Scotsmen--Wal'er Black in the morning and Ian Ritchie after lunch. The 21-year-old Simons, of Butler, ousted Howard Clark England 3 and 2 and then struggled through 22 holes before overcoming Mike Sanger, a eki instructor from Mount Kisco, N.Y. Melnyk, the former U.S. Amateur champion from Jacksonville defeated John Miller's 65 good for Atlanta lead John Miller aids a Irirclie pull with a little body English on the 18th green yesterday at Atlanta, Ga.

Associated Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (AP) Trainer Juan Arias said Thursday that Canonero II is in fine health for his bid to win Saturday's Eel- inont Stakes and the Triple Crown, and that now it is up to Jockey Gustavo Avila, whose poise under pressure stood out in the colt's Kentucky Derby and Preakness victories. But the quiet confidence of VFW heats Carrols', 10-7 The VFW outlasted Carrols' 10-7 Wednesday in Little League baseball action.

Boyer unclaimed ATLANTA (AP) Controversial Clete Boyer, third baseman of the Atlanta Braves, was not claimed on as of Wednesday afternoon and is now free to negotiate with any club in baseball, the National League advised the Braves.

Arias and Avila wasn't exactly scaring off opposition. It appeared that 10 3-year-olds would challenge Canonero II in the tough Belmont Saturday. J.M. Davis' Royal sev- enth'in the Preakness, was entered Thursday. Canonero Ills health has racing's big question ever since the Preakness, although Arias has maintained throughout that the Kentucky-bred Venezuelan-owned colt would be ready for the Belmont.

Veterinarians have reported the colt's skin- rash has just about cleared up and that his infected -right hind foot has responded well to treatment. The infection is. what is called a sort of equine athlete's foot. Set to oppose Canonero II and Royal are the Johnny Campo trained pair of Frank J.

By BOB GREEN Associated Press Golf Writer ATLANTA (AP) Young John Miller snapped out of a two-month slump with a brilliant 7-under-par 65 and stormed into the first-round lead in the $125,000 Atlanta Golf Classic Thursday.

The 24-year-old blond from San Francisco held a two- stroke lead that was far from comfortable with the awesome form of Jack-Nicklaus heading a group of four at 67. "I'm playing very, very well," warned Nicklaus, the leading.money-winner and holder of three titles already this season. He was tied 'at 67 with Ray Floyd, former U.S. Open 'champion, Orville Moody and Dave Eichelberger; Lee.Trevino headed a large' group at 68 that included Gard- ner Dickinson, Bob Lunn, Jim Colbert, Jim Dent, Rod Curl and rookie Bob Barbarossa. South African Gary Player and Masters champion Charles Coody were in the group at 69.

Defending champion Tom Aaron was well back at 71. And Dave Hill, the controversial character who has filed a $1 million damage suit against the' PGA and the Tournament Players Division, had a fat 81 over the hilly, par 72 Atlanta County Club course. Miller, a lanky, 6-foot-2 pro- tege of Billy Casper, said he has been in a slump since he finished in a tie' for second with Nicklaus in the Masters at Augusta, Ga. "Today, no matter what I did, it turned out right," Miller said. Glover of Ireland 2 and 1.

then scored a 3 and 1 victory over David Marsh of Scotland in the afternoon. In the Friday morning matches Stuart, who ousted J'ibn Farquhar of Amarillo, 3 and 2 in the fourih roiind, will meet Simons. Young Carr will face Kile; Hugh Campbell of Scotland who advanced with a 3 and 2 fifth- icund victory over Warren Humphreys of England, will face Moody while an all-Amerl- can match will pit Melnyk against Updegraff. The semifinals will be played Friday afternoon and the 36- final Saturday. Mullaney removed as Laker coach LOS ANGELES (AP)-Jack Mullaney has been removed as coach of the Los Angeles Lakers and offered an administrative position with the National Basketball Association team, General Manager Fred Schans said Thursday.

Mullaney coached the Lakers the past two seasons after succeeding Bill van Breda Kolff, who went to the Detroit Pistons of the NBA. There was no official explanation for the Lakers' move but sources close to the team point out that while the Lakers have come close to winning the championship under Mullaney, as well as under van Breda Kolff, the title has eluded them. "Nothing short of a 'championship will please Jack Kent Cooke," one source said, referring to the'owner of the team. Mullaney, 46, came to the Lakers after a highly successful college coaching career, including nine years at Providence. Under, the low-pressurs coach ing of Mullaney, the Lakers reached the finals of the 1969-70 NBA playoffs before losing to the New York Knlcks, 4 games to 3.

The past, season they lost to the Milwaukee Bucks in the semifinals 4-1. ire BEHO- TRY THESE TACKLETIPS APPLY CLEAR MAIL POLISH ON YOUR FISHING PLUGS.
