Jack Nicklaus clashed with the match referee following a Sunday golf bout in Virginia Waters England. Gary Player defeated Nicklaus in a widely debated World Match affair, fueling ongoing suspicions of officiating.
The final featured Nicklaus contending with Col. Tommy Duncan on the ninth hole amid a disputed drop. The incident followed a heated exchange after Nicklaus blamed an advertising sign for blocking his line. The match, 36 holes, will be remembered for the unprecedented scene and the debate over relief and penalties.
A fragmented legal text recounts disputes over judicial rules and amendments in Maryland, detailing sections of Article IV and related provisions. It mentions judges, intermediate appellate courts, and procedures for appeals, retirements, and administration, with extensive constitutional revisions and election references.
The report recalls Nicklaus praising the referee who quit during a major British golf match, marking the first time a referee has withdrawn in mid play. The incident sparked front page coverage across British papers. The broader text includes legislative and court provisions from Maryland and outlines appointments, terms, and procedural rules across state government bodies.
A lengthy legal text outlines proposed amendments to the Maryland Constitution to modify how vacancies are filled in districts, establish a Workmen's Compensation Commission with powers over tenure, and change deputy clerks' removal rules. The provisions call for voter referendums at the November 1966 general election with typical ballot wording for or against each amendment.
Governor Tawes names a fifteen member board to study disparities in Maryland judges salaries. The General Assembly earlier ordered a uniform pay and pension study across the judiciary.
