North Carolina State Rallies . i . ; ■ . s' • * To Beat Duke By TIM MORIARTY United Press International Lou Pucillo and John Richter, a pair of “Rebels” from South Philadelphia, are leading North Carolina State to a showdown meeting with North Carolina’s “Yankee” Tar Heels in the Atlantic Coast Conference basketball race. * Pucillo, the Wolfpack’s 5-foot, Finch captain, tossed in 27 points and Richter, a fellow-Philadelphi-an, contributed 15 as State posted a comeback 80-72 victory over Duke Tuesday night to remain on North Carolina's heels. The two Carolina teams meet Carolina, the nation’s No. 2 team, at Chapel Hill next week. North has gone unbeaten in nine conference games this season. Fifthranked N.C. State has an 11-1 league record, its lone setback coming at the hands of the Tar Heels last month.

State will have-'one more tuneup a Saturday tussle with Maryland. Duke held the Wolfpack to a 34-34 deadlock at mtermission in Tuesday night’s game at Raleigh and trailed by only three points (63-60)0 with about five minutes left. But Pucillo and Bob MacGillivray, another import from Dorchester, Mass., then started hitting from all corners and State quickly opened a commanding 80-66 bulge. MacGillivray wound up with 13

Yanks Soften Policy Toward Pay Decreases By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International A gradual softening of policy by the Yankees’ front office made it a good bet today that Mickey Mantle, Whitey Ford and Ryne Duren all will be signed within a week. The front office fired its biggest broadside when it sent out the contracts, most of which originally called for a cut. Then Casey Stengel got into the act and added some fuel to the flames with his scorching comment on some of the players, but there are definite signs of an ease-up Jn Yankee policy. example, originally was offered an SB,OOO cut. However, subsequent talks with assistant general manager Roy Harney have been, such that almost the entire slash has been restored. “If we each give in a little,” Ford said, “I’ll probably sign the next time I see Harney.” The “next time” probably will be Thursday, Ford said. Raise For Mantie
Mantle’s case is far from a crisis, either, despite the periodic communiques from Mickey’s home bailiwick in Dallas and from the Yankee front office.Mantle’s salary last year was $77,000. That figure is to the penny for those who are fussy. Anyway, the Yanks’ first offer to him this year was a cut, but you have to bear in mind that ease-up policy. So the club will send him another one, and before long the switch-hitting center fielding and bowling entrepeneur will scratch his signature on a contract calling for about SBO,OOO. That will make everyone happy. Mantle' wilTf&U’gbod abptßHgfctting his raise* the front will feel good about hiding that raise to within a reasonable limit, and the Yankee pitchqrs will feel good about having Mantle’s batting support for another year. Speaking of Yankee pitchers, Harney mentioned them Tuesday when he said he anticipated no contract trouble from either Duren or Don Larsen. Ramey said he was “very close” with Duren and indicated he was near agreement, too, with Larsen and Norm Siebern. Larsen could prove tougher than Hamey thinks. Like the others, he’s been offered a cut and feels there’s no reason to take one. Shantz Accepts Cat At any rate,-Tittle Bobby Shantz accepted a cut Tuesday and thereby became the 16th member of the Yankees to agree to terms. Shantz had a 7-6 record last season and his signing still left 25 players for Hamey to satisfy. The Pittsburgh Pirates, who were looking high and low for left-handed pitchers until they acquired Harvey Haddix from Cincinnati recently, signed three southpaws. Minor Accident Is Reported Tuesday The city police department reportde a small property damage accident occurred Tuesday afternoon at 4 o’clock at 615 Adams A car driven by Robert. W. Graber, 34, of Monroe, struck the open door of a car owned by Sondra Ellen Chilcote. 21, of Decatur, on Adam? street Tuesday afternoon. The Chilcote auto was parked to the side of the street, and the door was being opened by the driver when the mishap occurred. Police estimated damages to the Graber auto at SSO and damages to the Chilcote car was estimated at $75. --'■4,: ' ■ ■ ■: r Pro Basketball Minneapolis ,118, Cincinnati 100.

Muncie Still Is Rated As State's Best INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — That two-point loss at Kokomo last Friday wrecked Muncie Central’s chances for an undefeated season but didn’t knock the Bearcats from the No. 1 spot in Indiana high school basketball. The United Press International coaches’ poll today made Muncie the "top dog” for the sixth time in eight weeks, with 14 first-place votes,. East Chicago Washington remained second and received the four other 10-point votes in balloting for games through last Saturday. As last week, Muncie remained 12 votes ahead of the Calumet area powerhouse, with the total for both this week 176 to 164. No brand-new members were voted into the “Big this week. But Fort Wayne Central, which early in the season ranked as high as third before slipping, climbed back into the elite in 10th place, replacing Gary Froebel. Central was tied for 13th last week and Froebel slipped from eighth to a tie for 17th after a 30-point drubbing at Fort Wayne South last Saturday. Three other quintets held on to their positions, three others were promoted and another skidded slightly. * Once-beaten Madison remained fifth, New Castle sixth ana Michigan City seventh. Kokomo was upgraded from fourth to third, Valparaiso from ninth to' eighth, and Sou£h Side from 10th to ninth. Indianapolis Shortridge, third the past five weeks, slipped one notch following its 60-58 upset by city foe Manuel last weekend. The experts nominated 27 tehms, two less than last week. Dropped were Versailles, Evansville Bosse and Bloomington. Geographically, the South was hurting. Only one team—-Madison —represents the downstaters in the “Big 10,” and Southern Con-, ference champ Washington received only token recognition — one vote, to tie for 26th place.
