The stocky 5-foot-ll shooter, Canadian amateur champion of 1965. started fast and was four under after three holes. "I started out with two birdies and then 1 hit that eagle on the 12lh (his third) when 1 blasted out of the rough to the left of the green and dropped in." His only trouble, on the 188- yard par-three fifth hole--his 14lh after starting on the back nine--saw his tee shot drop into water that curls to the edge of the green. He blasted out of the water and two putted to pull himself out of a murky situation and retain the lead. Elliott wasn't so fortunate.

(9-5), Marshall Mil Jorgensen A I Iceland World chess champion Boris Spas.sky of the Soviet Union and challenger Bobby Fischer of the United Slates agreed Thursday night to i their long-disputed world championship match Tuesday. The chess match became a reality when the Soviet cham- ion and his American challenger met face to face to draw lots on who should play white in the opening game of the 24-game series. Spassky won the draw, and will have the first move in the first game. Tournament officials feared further disaster when the 29- year-old challenger kept the Russian champion waiting for more a a half-hour at the exhibition hall where the draw took place. The champion arrived 10 minutes before the appointed time and Fischer more than 20 minutes late.

But the Russian appeared in an almost jovial mood as he and Fischer inspected the Icelandic stone chessboard on which the crucial matches will take place. Fischer looked cool in a powder-green suit despite a harrowing experience on his a i a the hall when he had hn rescued from reporters and fans who surrounded his car.

Organ's field goal, his third of the game, spoiled Ihe auspicious debut of Hamilton's i quarterback Chuck Ealey, who led the Tiger-Cats to 15 of their 21 points and thrilled the more a 20,000 fans with his scrarnbing tactics. He shared the signal-calling slot with Wally Gablcr. The Riders drew first blood with Rick Cassata at the helm with an Organ Field goal early In the first quarter, adding a touchdown when Rod Woodward took an intercepted Gahlcr pass for 44 yards. Gabler passed six yards to Tony Gabriel to make it 9-6 after the first quarter.

That ended Ottawa's scoring i Theofilides. who worked most of the second half, set up Organ's i a three-pointer. Elliott, obviously upset over Thursday's ouster, called the rulling "unfair." "I've never seen anything so unfair," he said in a later interview.

"They couldn't get us for slow play, so they got me for standing over my putt." Elliott said "they timed my putt, and there's no way I'm going to hit a moving ball." He claimed the putt was still moving near the lip of the cup at the I7lh hole. "1 hit it after 1 deemed it had stopped." PGA rules call for a putt Lo be made within a reasonable length of time after addressing the ball--about eight to 10 seconds.
