JACK BRABHAM WINS AGAIN
Portuguese Grand Prix victory puts him in almost unchallengeable position
Oporto, Aug. 14.
World racing driver Jack Brabham of Australia won his fifth Grand Prix in a row here today-the 253-mile Portuguese Grand Prix over the twisty cobbled Boavista circuit through the streets of Oporto.
Driving a Cooper Climax at an average speed of 175.849 kph (109.805 mph), he made virtually certain of being 1960 champion as he was in 1959.

100-minute goalless draw in final
Kuala Lumpur, Aug. 14,
Malaya and South Korea fought out a 100-minute goalless draw in the final of the Third Merdeka Festival Soccer Tournament here today. Neither side had scored at full-time and the ten minutes' extra time provided for in the tourna- ment rules failed to produce a result. The two teams will therefore share the trophy, holding it for six months each. Malaya formerly held the trophy.
