NEW YORK (AP) — Joe
Morgan smashed a lead-off
home run, touching off a dis-
play of power that carried

e National League to a 7-5
victory over the American
League in the 4sth-annual
basebal] major league
baseball all-star game
Tuesday night. .

Greg Luzinski and Steve
Garvey also homered for the
National squad, which won
its sixth consecutive game
and 14th in the last 15 of
these mid-summer
confrontations.

The AL now trails in the
series 29-18—there was one
tie. When the American
squad threatened in the late
innings, Dave Winfield
singled in a pair of eighth-
inning runs that put the NL
back in control.

Boston’s George Scott
boomed a long two-run
homer to rightcentre field in
the bottom of the ninth,
pulling the AL within two
runs, but that was as close it

Morgan’s shot was the

were hit by Frankie Frisch
in 1934, Lou Boudreau in
1942 and Willie Mays in 1985.

“I made a good slide,”
Parker said. “I Jeaned to the

Palmer went to work on
Luzinski, the husky
Philadelphia outfielder who
had thrilled the crowd of
56,683 at Yankee Stadium
with a series of batting

ractice home runs. This
ime he hit one for real.

It came on a 3-2 pitch and
also went into the lower
deck in right field, close to
the spot where Morgan's
had landed.

“It was a big thrill for me
to be able to hit a home rua
in my first at bat in this
stadium,’? said Luzinski.
“To be in Yankee Stadium,
with all you hear about it
was like being in a World
Series for me.” —

Palmer finished the
inning with two more
strikeouts, but the NL had a
4-0 lead before the American
squad had come to bat. In

the third, the National -

League added a run when.
Garvey led off with another
homer, knocking . out
Palmer.

“Palmer tried to sneak
the fastball past me that he
struck me out with in the
first inning,” said, Garvey.
“IT was more ready . this
time.” _

“T guess you can say I
didn’t pitch very well,"
Palmer said. ;

Sutton, the winning
pitcher who was given the
Commissioner’s Trophy as
the outstanding player of the

me, was happier with his

ree shutout innings.

“The way I feel about
pitching in this stadium for

e first time... I was in
total awe,” said Sutton, who
grew up as a Yankee fan,

The score stayed 5-0 until
the sixth inning when the
American League began
chipping way at the margin.
Tom Seaver, making his
first appearance in New
York since his controversial
trade from .the. Mets to
Cincinnati, relieved for the
NL and surrendered a lead-
off ‘single to Minnesota’s
Rod Carew, the leading
hitter in the major leagues
with a .394 average.

Seaver got the next two
outs, but walked Boston's
Fred Lynn after PeteRose
just missed snaring a pop
foul near the third base
stands thatwould have
ended the inning.

Chicago’s Richie Zisk {ol-
lowed with a double to right-
centre field that scored two
runs and put the AL back in
the game. .

In the seventh, Seaver
was touched for another run
when Minnesota's Butch
Wynegar singled and St.
Louis shortstop Garry
Templeton kicked what
looked like a double-play

The mistake hurt when,
one out later, Willie
Randolph of the Yankees,
the only player to go all the
way for either team,
dropped an RBI single into
short centre field.

That made it 5-3, a bit too
close for comfort for the NL
stars. So they widened the
Bap in the eighth. .

TORONTO (CP) — The
Canadian Open, a
peripatetic golf tournament
since its inauguration in
1904, settles into its first
permanent home when the
touring pros tackle the lush
fairways and rolling greens
of the Glen Abbey course in
a 72-hole test starting
Thursday.

layout, designed by Jack

But tour veteran George
Knudson, who recently

says the course is deceptive.

nearly as open (away from
the river) as it looks. If you

HE HIT
TOO HARD

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) —
Wide receiver Lynn Swann
of Pittsburgh | Steelers
testified Tuesday that a
concussion-producing blow
George Atkinson aimed at
him in a National Football
League game last Sep-
tember was “unnecessary,
unwarranted and totally

outrageous,”
Swann, on the stand in
Atkinson’s §$2-million

slander suit against the
Steelers and Pittsburgh
coach Chuck Noll, also said
he dedn’t see Atkinson be-
fore he was hit.

Atkinson, with Qakland
Raiders, filed suit after Nol
said Atkinsoon had
intentionally tried to maim
Swann and linked Atkinson
to a “criminal element” in

ro football. The trial is in
its second week in US.
district court.

Swann viewed films of
Atkinson clubbing him over
the head and described what
he thought occurred on the
play. The films showed
Atkinson striking Swann as
Pittsburgh's Franco Harris
caught a pass several yards
away. Atkinson said earlier
in the trial that he was
attempting to tackle Swann
because he thought he was
the intended receiver.

_ “T knew the balk was not
coming to me,’' Swann
testified Tuesday. ‘There
was no way I could do an
damage to anybody or bloc

your next shot in any sort of
position for a good putt on

Knudson says the four
parfives algo pose problems,
‘not to make the green in
two but to get somewhere
that would. give you a
chance to pitch on to the
proper area of the greens.”
Host pro Bob Breen, who
decided to pass up a chance
to play in the Open, says the
reason the rough has not

_beert allowed to encroach on _
the fairways is that ‘two ~
different types of grass are

used—bent for the fairways
and blue for the rough.
Besides, he says, ‘‘it isn’t
really necessary with the
lengths and other demands
ynade by this course.”
The inevitable favorite in
the hunt for the $45,000
winner’s share of the
$225,000 purse is Nicklaus.
Aside from the fact he
designed Glen Abbey he has
never won the
Open although he has been
runner-up within a shot or
‘two of the winner on several
occasions.

While Nicklaus
