"Its the little things like that that will get you on this golf course. If I shoot 66, I'm right in the golf tournament. But I end up shooting 68 and I'm six back. I guess that's golf.

YVollek NBA Sues to Seal Clippers Doom - NEW YORK (AP) The National Basketball Association said Friday it has filed suit to terminate the San Diego Clippers franchne because the club moved to Los Angeles without league approval NBA spokesman Alex Sachare said that under the suit, filed in U S. District Court in San Diego, another franchise likely would be created to replace the Clippers, keeping a team in the city Commissioner David Stern said the suit also seeks to confirm the NBA's right to evaluate the move under NBA franchise relocation proand to approve or disapcedures " prove it after such evaluation The NBA is seeking damages of more than $25 million "as result of the financial impact of the Clippers' move." There was no immediate comment from the team, which is owned by Donald T. Sterling, a Los Angeles businessman According to the suit, the Clippers signed a lease to play their home games m the Los Angeles Sports Arena starting next season and publicly announced they had become "the Los Angeles Clippers." with offices in Los Angeles.

"In my judgment, San Diego's conduct amounts to a wiliful violation of the NBA constitution and strikes at the very heart of the orderly operation of a prokwsio.'.al sports league," Stern said in a prepared statement.

"I played with him the last two rounds of the 1982 PGA at Southern Hills, but I think that's the only time. I like playing with Johnny because he's a very easy conversationalist. You can always break the tension by talking with him and v.e can talk about things other than golf because we're good friends." Of course, what Reid was talking about late Friday afternoon was his second consistent round at Winged Foot, a round that included two birdies. four bogeys and 12 pars. The course played one or two shots tougher today, judged Reid, whose score reflected the same difference. "The direction of the wind was different and the greens were more difficult today. I thought I played as well today as I did yesterday. My target was 71 again today, so I missed it by one. Reid, the reigning Utah Open and Jeremy Ranch Shootout champion, made the turn Friday at even par birdie at the after rolling in a sixth hole. He remained even after trading a bogey at the 10th hole for a three-fobirdie at the par-- 4 11th. But then, he ran into trouble on Winged Foots final six holes. He three-putte- d the par-- 3 13th from 50 feet and three-putte- d again at No. 15 from 48 feet, before steadying himself with three consecutive pars to B-- 6 ot finish at 72. Perhaps the most dramatic performance by those Utahns who dodged the cut Friday was that of Fehr. After bogeys at the 10th, 13th and 16th holes, the aspiring professional sensed he needed a birdie at d 18th to survive the difficult, the cut. Sc he sent an approach seven feet from the flag and rolled it in. "I figured I needed a birdie to have any chance after that bogey at 16, admitted Fehr. "I had played well for 13 holes, but then I made a few errors and was in a position where I had to grind to make the cut. There were some tough pin placements today. It was poetic justice that Fehr made the cut. In Thursday's initial round, his caddying father accidentally kicked his ball, which was buried in the rough. Rick incurred a e penalty for the infraction and that was the one shot that nearly cost him an invitation to Saturday's third round. McGowan, a teammate of Reid's during their collegiate days at BYU, truly rode a roller coaster en route to his 72. The California resident had seven bogeys on his scorecard, but he minimized his mistakes with three birdies and an eagle to keep alive his record of never missing an Open cut in four appearances. "That eagle on the fifth hole was a turning point," stressed McGowan, who sent a approach 15 feet from the flagstick and curled in tne d par-putt for a 3 on the hole "I'm playing well. I just haven't put together the numbers. This is the kind of course that if you shoot two rounds below par on the weekend, you'll pass an awful lot of people."
