Such stuff as dreams are made of There was another bright spot in the Olympic trials at Eugene Ore For years the decathlon has been dominated by brutes like Bob Mathias and Rafer Johnson cast in toe Tarzan mold It did not seem that ordinary mentals belonged But this week the No 2 decathlon spot on the US team going to Munich was won by a soldier Jeff Bennett He is five feet eight inches tall and weighs 145 pounds A guy might have sand kicked in his face and he has a shot at the Olympic decathlon Beautiful Last but not least this was the week of a notable maternity Six months ago as Arctic winds swept Suffolk County Park in South Haven Lady Nip was crowned Long lalanH Bird Dog of the Year Two days ago Mrs Caesar Riboldi of Elmont phoned to report that Tippy as toe German short-haired pointer is called gave birth to 13 beautiful tail-wagging puppies Gan you imagine that? Tippy the proud mother of 13 future field-trial champions It wasn't such a had week after all 13 Happy Yips Amid the Growls The week that was was not much Sort of a bummer To start with that business in Reykjavik Which is harder to spell it or pronounce it? What a place for the world championship of anything Still there it is chess fans And there is Bobby Fischer representing the USA against Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union Forget patriotism Root for Spassky Bobby Fischer is a petulant brat who should be hauled off to the woodshed and spanked If the chess panjandrums had any class Fischer would have been disqualified for not showing up in Iceland when the series was scheduled to start At the very least he should have had to forfeit the first game But the tiny country made a big financial commitment to the tournament so Fischer got away with his shennanigans Spoiled kid scores again Great advertising for the United States Nice going Bobby Put you in the diplomatic corps and we could get a nuclear holocaust going in no time interesting that Fischer is being referred to as "Die Ugly anybody read that book? The ugly American of the title was a good guy the reference being to his homeliness not any lack of principle like Thin who was not the detective but toe suspect he was chasing in toe original story Those are toe things that cause authors to shake their heads as they stroll to toe bank to deposit their royalties A week loaded with bad vibrations There was the announcement that Floyd Patterson would fight Muhammad Ali in Madison Square Garden Aug 28 seven years after Ali tortured Patterson in a Las Vegas fight that should have been promoted by toe Marquis de Bade a ghost he keeps coming Ali said Yes he does but the point? Patterson will be drawn and quartered and it will be terrible to see There is nothing as embarrassing as toe humiliation of a faded sports heto who will not get off the stage The interesting part of this is that AH ketips mowing down all the possible pretenders to Joe Frazier's heavyweight championship George Chuvalo Jerry Quarry Patterson and get to George Foreman soon So Frazier when he gets tired of beating up on toe likes of Ron Stander will have to give Ali a MINEOLA MS Jarieha Tate "Aft massapioua S2SS Hariw Ir Mast to Maya Dally AM to 6 PM Thun yPrtto PM 1 1111 Door Fart Ago Daily 9:30 to 6:90 PJt Thun 8 PM NORTH IAIYLON OAKDALE JVVSj til Thun 8:90 to lfexx thru Pri to 4 PATCHOtlll 78 Bt Mata 81 8 A Mt to 61 i Prl to 8 78 8 Prl to 8 Daily Thurt 471-8177-8784 R1YERHEAD Mon thru nwal la 7 PIL pri a-a pm eat s-s pm Tpi-aiaa Firastona 500 Steel Belt Ifli ready tough tough becsiue it lui two amur belt of ted voder the tread Hum steel belts gin excellent protection against impacts cots and bruise Steel belts sesist tread on pavement to give long to mar Steel cards in the two belts are let so close together it takes 805 feet to suite just one tire This steel is so strong a single card will paU a car!
