? Bud Winter, San Jose State track coach, on fiber-glass poles: "They cost $65 each, and we've broken so many we're working on the 1965 budget already."

? Doug Sanders, golf professional, on Arnold Palmer's decision to play in fewer tournaments and devote more of his time to his many business interests: "Ar-nie ought to take a week off just to count his money."

? Gabe Paul, Cleveland Indian president: "A manager really gets paid for how much he suffers."

?Judge M. Joseph Blumenfeld, of Hartford, Conn., who awarded $1,750 damages to a golfer scarred by a drive, answering a defense claim that the injured man was too slow leaving the green: "Golf is still a leisurely sport for many golfers and haste in completing a round is not an object of the game."

? Casey Stengel, Mets' manager, on his second-string catcher, Chris Cannizzaro: "He's the first defensive catcher I've had who can throw but can't catch."
