Who Won
> The East: a 124-123 victory over the West in the National Basketball Association's All-Star game; in St. Louis. Paced by Cincinnati's Oscar Robertson (who scored 28 points) and Jerry Lucas (25), the easterners built up a 20-point lead in the third quarter, barely hung on to win when officials, apparently deciding that a lopsided victory would never do, stopped calling fouls against the outclassed West.
> The West: an easy, 38-14 victory over the East, in the American Football League's All-Star game in Houston, where the game was moved after 21 Negro players refused to play in New Orleans as a protest against a series of racial incidents. The Westerners scored on the first play from scrimmage --a 73-yd. pass from Kansas City Quarterback Len Dawson to San Diego's Fullback Keith Lincoln--and Lincoln put the game on ice with an 80-yd. TD run in the third quarter.
> Pakistan's Mohibullah Khan, 26: the U.S. Open Squash Racquets championship for the second year in a row, beating his cousin and former champion, Hashim Khan, 15-11, 15-10, 15-9; in Wilmington, Del. The Khans--and there are a dozen squash players in the family--have won the U.S. Open in nine of the last ten years.
