Scoreboard

P: Jimmy Carter, lackadaisical lightweight champion of the world, had already won his title three times and lost it twice. In the Boston Garden, Wallace ("Bud") Smith, a stubborn, long-range stylist from Cincinnati, was out to make him lose it again. By the 15th round, both boxers were hot, but Carter had taken too long to get started. The decision went to Smith.

P: After an astonishing series of fractured fingers, assorted bruises and an injured nerve in his right hand, the Brooklyn Dodgers' Roy Campanella came down with a new catcher's complaint: spurs on the kneecap. One of the bony growths broke off, caused enough pain to force Campanella out of the lineup. There was every indication, though, that Brooklyn's hard-hitting (.335) backstop will be back in uniform long before his teammates have time to blow their 11 1/2-game midseason National League lead.

P: Neither Midwestern heat nor blustery Kansas winds on the Wichita Country Club course could throw Uruguay's Fay Crocker off her game long enough to let any other competitor get within reach of the U.S. Women's National Open golf championship. Second and third behind the steady Uruguayan's 299 came Mary Lena Faulk and Louise Suggs, both with 303. Only former Champion Patty Berg fired a single sub-par round, but she still finished fourth with 307.
