NEW YORK (NEA) Jack Nicklaus drove up to the Winged Foot clubhouse on a cold and rainy day a year ago last fall, a pretty girl oeside him. Young Nicklaus telephoned Claud Harmon, invited the Winged Foot professional to play a round with him. There was no one on the course and Harmon didn't choose to venture out in the weather. So Nicklaus played alone. ' . When Nicklaus finished he again telephoned Harmon to thank his host. "Why don't you stay over a day. Jack, and we'll play tomorrow ? said Harmon. "Sorry," replied Nicklaus, "but I'm playing Pine Valley tomorrow. I'm on my honeymoon." .That is the kind of dedicated golf er the professional tour gets as Nicklaus, the burr-hea- d bulky, reddish-blon- d out of Scioto and Ohio .State, joins the money ranks.

(UPI) Arizona State University clamped the lid on their opponents scoring Saturday and romped to an easy 4 win over Brigham Young Univer sity before a crowd of 4,564. With their 24th consecutive home win the Devils established a new school record. The previous skein of 23' was snapped in 1959. The Devils have not lost at home since Feb. 8, 1960. Bobby Howard hit a jumper from the tipoff to put the Devils into a lead they never relinquished. They held the Cougars to only 16 points in the first half. During that period the Devils grabbed all loose balls but 12 with Tony Cerkvenik leading the way. At one point the Cougars went 11 minutes without a field goal. BYU center Bruce Burton found the range for his hoofas against reserves in the second half, notching 14 points. Guard Gary Batchelor was the only other Cougar in double figures with 11. For the Sun Devils who played all 14 men five were in the double figures. They were led by J erry Hahn with 15. Cerkvenik had 14, Larry Armstrong 12 and Raul Disarufino and Mike McCon-ne'10. each. Twelve Devils hit the scoring column. The cold shooting Cougars ended with 29 per cent accuracy from the field compared to the host team's 45 per cent.

Dey, Jr.,- secretary of the United States Golf Association. Joe Dey unquestionably has for the last 30 amateur, public links years been closer to all golfers and pro than anyone. "Before a Walker Cup match at the Seattle Golf Club last Sept. 1," recalled Dey, "Nicklaus practiced a little running shot from of f the green for at least three hours. He must have hit 600 balls. "Dr. Bud Taylor suggested a little change in the way he had been playing the shot which involved opening the face of the club instead of closing it. Jack practiced the shot from one side of the green and the other until he made. me tired just watching him. I asked him if he were going to practice all day.
