...bases, Southern California's sprawling Camp Pendleton, Marines have thrown up a vast tent city amid the tough green scrub and yellow-mustard weeds. The Marines, who displayed superb organization in setting up the camp, rounded up three blankets for every refugee and issued each a hooded field jacket. The refugees organized a committee responsible for small personal needs, medical services and English-language courses.

Others were more acutely aware of Nicklaus' achievement. "I can't say how I feel," said an anguished Tom Weiskopf, who lost the lead and eventually finished second (for the fourth time), in a tie with Johnny Miller. "How do you describe pain?" For Nicklaus, the tournament's most...
