Melbourne To Host Visitors To Olympics NEW YORK (INS)—The Olympic games will bring to Melbourne, in addition to about 6,000 athletoa and officials, an estimated 80,000 visitors, of* whom 10,000 are expected to come from outside Australia. In accordance with tradition, the athletes will be housed in their own Olympic village. Accomodation must be found, however, for the visitors and, as in the case of three previous Olympic- cities, Berlin, Helsinki and London. there aren’t nearly enough hotel rooms to go around. As was the case at London, Helsinki and Berlin, most visitors—including the majority*of the estimated two or three thousand from the U. S.— will stay in private homes. Typical of Melbourne's all-out preparation for the games is the painstaking manner in which visitors and homes are being matched to make the stay as pleasant, or at least as painless, as possible. In the offices of the Melbourne civic committee, headed by city councilman Maurice Nathan, is a large zoned map. As an offer of living quarters is received, a red pin is inserted at the location of the home. At present, there are 5.000- pins, representing 15,000 be&hf Don Chipp. organizing secretary of the committee, estimates "eon tervatlvely” that there are 50,000 beds available for Olympic visitors. He said: ”1 think this might give the lie to the story that there is not enough accommodation in’ Melbourne for the games.” homes are personally inspected by members of Chipp's staff and graded “A," “B” or “C,” The top grade denotes virtually a mansion — at least two bathrooms and other extraordinary features such as tennis courts or swimming pool. "B" and “C” homes are more modest but still far above minimum standards. After inspection, the red pin is withdrawn and replaced by ajrelgrmr pth* aemd- ■ ing upon the grading. When a visitor is assigned to a home, the pin again Is replaced by a white one. The allotting of visitors to homes is riot left to chance, eith

Week's Schedule • For Adam* County Basketball Teams Friday Auburn at Yallow Jackets. Monmouth at Geneva. Bryant at Adams Central. Saturday Ohio City at Pleasant Mills. Angola at Berne (2 p.m.) Jefferson vs Gray at Geneva. 1 er. An attempt is made to match business and social backgrounds, age group and general compatibility of visitor and host by means of questionnaires. The card for each home has unusual features indicated by means of colored tabs for easy reference —mauve, for instance, to indicate club membership, green for memebrs of a profession, red where there is a definite religious preference, brown for home-owners who are non-drinkers. “We honestly believe," » said Chipp. "That moat visitors win have a better time in a private home-Jthan in a hotel.” Sophs Taking Over On Indiana Quintet BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (INS) — Paxton (Sugar) Lumpkin was being groomed to take over the field generalship Indiana University’s basketball team hasn't had since Bob Leonard graduated. Coach Branch McCracken shook his line-up from top to bottom after two losses and the sophomorestudded squad responded with a .46ft shooting percentage and a victory over Michigan State. U But more important, McCracken said the sophomore from DuSable of Chicago appeared to be just what has been missing in the Hoosier attack since the NCAA championship year that Leonard was a senior play-making general for TU and Don Schlundt. Said McCracken: "Lumpkin did a great job of setting up the other kids. He’s a great feeder and ball-handler and he made the other kids look good. The kids seem to run better when Paxton is in there. When he's got the ball in the center of the court, I feel pretty sure that we’re going to get a good shot" And like all-American Leonard, Lumpkin apparently has a ■ f aireon n try ahcteting eye of his own although his four fielders in 22 tries Isn’t terribly impressive. Coach McCracken said: "He can score on his own. they’re going to find out. Just w-alt until they start dropping off him

Helfand Raps Pledges Made By Association ; NEW YORK (INS) — So far as Julius Helfand is concerned, the National Boxing Association's pledge to support bls clean-up of boxing was “sheer hypocrisy:" The New York state athletic commission chairman made his charge in a short, fighting address Thursday night at the 80th annual dinner of the boxing writers association. Helfand praised the first two resolutions passed at last Saturday’s meeting in ChOgo of the NBA executive committee, but he ripped apart the third. The first promised to support Helfand's ban against the boxing managers’ guild of New York and the second pledged that no manager banned in New York state would be permitted to sign for fights in NBA territory. But the third stated that a boxer ouldsign his own icon tract in any state where his manager was suspended. Helfand said: "It nullified the first two resolutions and the meeting might just as well not have been held. It was sheer hypocrisy. “To permit a fighter to sign his own contract is like putting a blinder on your own eyes because he will go back to a hotel after the fight and whack up the money with the manager, who may be a criminal or otherwise. “The NBA should repeal this resolution, otherwise it has done nothing for boxing.” NBA president Lou ißadzienda, commenting on Helfand's remarks, told newsmen after the dinner: “Commissioner Helfand forgot that the resolution he criticized con tain s a pro vision that suspend 6 the contract between a fighter and his manager during the time the manager is without a license. “It does not void the contract, but it permits the boxer to fight without being under obligation to the manager. "After a thorough discussion by the executive committee it was decided not to penalize a boxer indefinitely or interfere with his progress merely because of the misdoings of his manager.’’ Helfand, cited Frank Palermo, who was seated at one of the tables, as anexample. a bit.’’ Senior Wally Choice Is the only standby who aaw much action againgt~sflchlgan "“Slate."He will be with the sairie sophomore squad when IU returns to the hardwood wars* against Notre Dame, Jan. 30. -ft * J " Trade «n a Good Jown — DecatuC
