PAGE 6 Hint of pressure, town must PHOENIX, Ariz. (AP) — Shocked when Washington Senators skipped town, law makers in the United States capital have begun to pitch for a new major league franchise. They made their first big de- livery Wednesday at the winter baseball meetings—and threw a curve in the process. A delegation of congressmen and community leaders from Washington expressed their strong desire for a team while Nicklaus chasing Trevino LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fia. (AP) — Jack Nicklaus, his fear- some game in gear, has set dead aim on Lee Trevino and the leading-money winning spot going into the Jast two weeks of the pro golf tour. The Golden Bear, winner of. the PGA championship earlier _ this year, served notice Wednes- day he's the man {o beat in to- day's start of the $150,000 Walt Disney World Open Golf Tour- -nament when he cruised around the 6,924-yard, par-72 Magnolia course with a 65, That gave him a share of first place in the pro-am with Bert Yancey in the individual scor- ing, but his team score of 58 wasn't good enough Lo beat Pete Brown at 57, “In 10 years on the pro tour, I've never won ateam pro-am,” Nicklaus said. Nicklaus, his position as the game's premier player threat- ened by Trevino’s mid-summer surge, won three of his last four starts and finished third last week, Trevino, who leaped into the front rank of the game's great stars with his lightning sweep of the American, British and Canadian opens, already has set a record of $229,552. Bul Nicklaus is within striking dislance al $213,678 and may make a bid for the title. “Sure the money winning title is important,” said Nicklaus, a three-time winner of the crown. “But Idon’t think it’s as impor- lant as winning one of the big four tournaments. . “H 1 can do-it within my schedule, that’s fine. And.right now Iseem to be playing pretty well. I'm driving well, my irons are reasonably good and I’m pulling pretty well.” . Will he play next week in the Bahama Islands Open, the last event on the schedule? “Well, let’s put it this way: I'd rather not. But if 'm in a position to win it, well, one more tournament would still put me within my schedule—25 or 26 tournaments.” have team baseball officials listened pa- tiently for hours. After the meeting, there was a hint of pressure from Wash- ington if baseball doesn't come through by 1973. “We must have a team in Washington by 1973,"’ Joseph Dansansky, president of the city's board a trade, told a news conference. WHAT IF THERE ISN'T? What if baseball doesn't sat- isfy the demand? “We'll run over that bridge when we come to it,” Rep. B. F. Sisk (R—Cal.) said in a curt «+ tone, Sisk went on, softening his platform: “We are here on the request of the leadership of Congress. We are reasonable men working for the good of baseball. We don’t want to hurt baseball.” Washington was caught short when the Senators moved to Dallas-Fort Worth last Septem- ber. Owner Bob Short blamed financial difficulties. “We've gone through & shock and sometimes a shock awakens you,” said Sisk. KUHN PROMISES STUDY Basebali commissioner Bowie Kuhn said of the meeting: “We had a very satisfying meeting, Baseballis flattered to have this delegation here. We will study the problem and see if a solution can be found,” _ The delegation presented a petition signed by 238 members of Congress supporting the re- turn of baseball to Washington. Kuhn said the Washington group had described in detail “the strong feeling for baseball . in Washington." “They did not ask for a deci- sion at this time but asked for a committee of baseball people to work with them.” The commis- sioner said he would name a panel to work with the Washing- ton group. The major leagues shifting the winter meeting site Wednes- day to Phoenix after the minors closed up shop in the morning at nearby Scottsdale. The majors went through a series of private, unspectacular sessions and there was no ex- plosive trading action like the four big deals that highlighted the first two days of the meetings Monday and Tuesday.
