Nine Candidates On DCHS Rifle Team Nine candidates, including three novices, form the nucleus of Decatur Catholic high school's rifle team, which is almost desperately trying to land a match with an area school. The team, which is coached by Don Gage, local machine shop owner, is operating under the auspices of the local Fraternal Order of Police in association with the national rifle association. The nine youths have been working out at the Knights of Pythias range most of the summer and early fall, but will move to new quarters in the Mies Recreation basement late next week. Team Members Dave Colchin, Severin Schurger, Jr., Jerry Heimann, Mike Eider, Joe Schurger and Fred Kauffman are the older members of the team, while Elias Caciano, Jr., Dan Meyers, and Tom Kitson, are the beginners. Gage, who is a former Marine Corps veteran of World War 11, is teaching the rudiments of skill shooting and safety methods to the Commodore team. Ammunition for the team is supplied by the director of civilian marksmen through cooperation with the national rifle association. The local group is a member of the junior rifle club. Only two other county schools, Adams Central and Berne, have rifle teams, but neither is ready for a match at this time. In Fort Wayne, Elmhurst, South Side and Concordia have teams, but are too well advanced for the local shooters. An arrangement may be worked out with the reserve shooters from Concordia at an early date, however. Gage indicated. FOP Rifles The rifles for the group are furnished by the local FOP under Robert Hili', president. Last year, the Catholic group worked under state trooper Dan Kwasneski, but was not able to enter many matches as the boys were all at the beginning stageGage said that he had high hopes for his squad which, may develop into an eagle-eyed squad. East-West Nuclear Conference Resumes GENEVA (UPI) — The EastWest nuclear conference resumed today in what some observers believed could be a major test of the “Camp David spirit” of improved relations between Russia and the West. U. S. Ambassador James J. Wadsworth. Britain’s Sir Michael Wright, and Russia’s Semyon Tsarapkin were sitting down in the Palais des Nations to confer for the l?8th time since the negotiations began last Oct. 31, nearly a year ago. It was the first nuclear meeting since the talks between U. S. and Soviet heads of government at Camp David, Md., last month. The negotiations had clearly reached a critical point, with the central issues narrowed down to one apparently immense problem -East-West agreement on a system of effective inspection and control of any nuclear test ban, which the West insists on.
Detroit Lions In Hot Water On SIOO Gift PALO ALTO, Calif. (UPI) - The Detroit Lions may be in hot water with the rest of the National Football League because Coach George Wilson “plain forgot” to pay his players a customary gift of SIOO apiece before last Sunday’s game with the Los Angeles Rams. As a result of Wilson’s “mental lapse,” Detroit may have to answer charges that they held the money back as an incentive to beat the Rams. Incentive payments are against NFL rules and Acting Commissioner Austin Gunsel is reportedly investigating the matter. Wilson explained from the Lions* training camp here that the Detroit club officials customarily give each player SIOO when they make the trip to the coast. He .said he was given the money in Detroit before the club left for Los Angeles last week and was directed to give the money to the players when the team arrived on the West Coast. “When you’re not winning, you don’t think of everything,” Wilson said. “I just plain forgot about it.” Wilson said he gave the money to the players Monday following their 17-7 victory over the Rams. It was Detroit's first league victory in five starts. The Detroit News carried a story last week saying that Wilson was holding back the customary gift unless the Lions beat the Rams. “Any kind of incentive pay is against league rules and we know it,” Wilson said“We’ve been doing this for the players ever since we started coming out here to the coast. It is just the goodness of the Detroit management that they give every player SIOO extra so that they can buy things for their families and friends. “Why anyone would want to concoct such a story about incentive pay for winning is beyond , me,” Wilson went on. "We’ve got a good team and don’t need SIOO extra to make us win . It would have to be at least SI,OOO to make it worth their while.” High School Football Player Fatally Hurt BARSTOW,’ Calif. (UPI) — A 16-year-old Barstow High School football played died Monday night 45 minutes after being injured in a practice scrimmage. Raymond Ramos apparently suffered a broken neck when he was clipped on the chin, hospital attendants said, "We’re starting a Hall of Fame!”

East Chicago Held To Scoreless Tie INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — East Chicago Washington, Indiana’s No- 2 high school football team, was dumped from the ranks of the perfect - record crews Monday night by unrated Hammond in a surprise scoreless deadlock. The tie game, one of three make-up scraps in the state as the result of last week’s heavy rains, slipped East Chicago Roosevelt into undisputed first place in the West NIHSC. The two East Chicago powers clash next week m their traditional season finale, with the winner the likely opponent for topranking South Bend Central for the NIHSC playoff championship. It was the third tie game for Hammond’s once-beaten Wildcats this season. The two Calumet outfits spent most of the game sloshing back and forth between the 40yard lines and Washington’s lone scoring threat in the first period fizzled on Hammond’s 10 - yard stripe. The deadlock marked the first blemish for Washington in seven games. Hi Also in the West NIHSC, Hammond Clark romped over crosstown rival Tech, 28-6. i In another all-city match, Tetff Haute Schulte pounced on neighboring Wiley, 28-0, with Jerry McCormick scoring twice in the inis tial stanza. That left Schulte and Garfield still unbeaten for Terre Haute city laurels, with the payoff match between them scheduled for Nov. 13 BowTinq Scares Merchant’s League W L Pts.

Dickens Says Official Cost IU Touchdown CHICAGO (UPI) — An official “choked up” on the goal line to cost Indiana a chance to tie Michigan State, Hoosier Coach Phil Dickens told United Press International's coaches “wailing wall” today. “We thought we scored,” he spid. “The kid that had the ball said he did. and if we had we had a chance for a tie. We think we made the touchdown on the second try and I know that when we had only one itach to go we moved the ball forward, and they said we didn’t score. I’m sure we did.” The Spartans’ Duffy Daughterly said his films showed that Indiana did not score, and he praised his “kids for holding for four downs on the four. I think it was tougher to stop a single wing team than a T team down there.” Jarus Surprises lowa lowa’s Forest Evashevski said, “We’re not a ball club that can pound on anybody” to explain the joss to Purdue "Our kids played pretty well. They fumbled, but that’s part of the game. It was a surprise to us that they had (Bob) Jarus. We thought they might have one fullback to pound in there, and we couldn’t handle them with two.” “I don’t think we could have won without Jarus,” Purdue's Jack Mollenkopf said. “He played a terrific game, on offense, and no defense at all. lowa did what they usually do, but I think the rain hurt them. It was the first time we met a team our own size.” Rain hurt Wisconsin and Ohio State, too, Milt Bruhn and Woody Hayes said. "We had to cut out some of our running because of the mud,” Bruhn said, “but we had a couple of plays up the middle that saved our neck. Our punting was something special, and defensive line play was brutal on both sides.” Michigan’s “Best Game” “I thought we could get back into the game in the third period,” Hayes said, “and if we'd got that touchdown, the pressure would have been on them. Even if we got a field goal. But we lost to a better team, and they had one coming.” Bump Elliott explained that Michigan was lucky to beat Minnesbta. "We got a couple of cheap toifchdowns It was our best game,” he said. "We hadn’t been ahead all year except for three points over Oregon State." Minnesota was playing “with a patched up line,” Murray Warmath said. “I was disappointed bur coverage of the punt that boy for a touchdown. It wasn’t our best game.” Aerials Save Wildcats “We were able to pass and that was our salvation,” Ara Parsegghian said of Northwestern's win over Notre Dame. “Notre Dame was really aroused, tackling hard and playing well. But futnbles and interceptions still hurt us.” “We gave them 12 points in the first seven minutes,” Joe Kuharich replied. “We’d had one offensive play, and they had 12 points on us. They hit a couple of long ones and really moved, and we would have been better off, if we hadn’t had to press to get back in.” Ray Eliot of Illinois explained the Penn State defeat glumly. “We fumbled it away, just like the Indiana game,” he said. "By actual count, we had nine fumbles, and our usual set of penalties.” Hunter, Miteff Sign For Return Match NEW YORK (UPI) —Billy Hunter of New York and Alex Mite fl of Argentina have signed to meet in a 10-round return heavyweight bout at Madison Square Garden, Nov. 27. Hunter, who stopped Tony Anthony last Friday, beat Miteff on a seven-round TKO in their first bout.

Many Cities After American Franchise NEW YORK (UPI) — If you’re thinking of applying for a franchise in the American League, you’d better get in line. Every since league President Joe Cronin announced the formation of a fact-finding expansion committee last week, almost every minor league city with major league ambitions has requested and when the AL opens its doors to additional members. ’ First, a Minneapolis group approached the committee with hat in hand. This annoyed officials of the Continental League nt end. for Minneapolis is a founding member of baseball’s new third major league. Then Houston, another CL member, got into the act. Marty Marion, the old St. Louis Cardinals’ shortstop and manager who is president of the Houston Buffs of the American Association, announced Monday night he was prepared to present “definite plans” to the American League committee for a franchise. “We haven’t heard from Anchorage, Alaska, or Tokyo yet,” an American League spokesman declared facetiously, “but maybe their applications were lost in the mail.” The same league official ridiculed a report that Minneapolis and New York would be granted the next two franchises in the | AL, with the New York group then switching to the National ■ League in exchange for rights either in Pittsburgh or Philadelphia. “There is no truth to that report,” the spokesman said. “As of this moment, nobody knows where the new franchises will be located or when they will be granted. ,f Popcorn Try sprinkling the kernels of your popcorn lightly with some warm water an hour or two before popping it.

Give Frost Warning For Most Os State United Press International The weatherman hoisted a frost warning for “most sections" of Indiana today and forecast temperatures as low as six degrees below freezing. Rain clouds were vanishing in midday in the wake of a new weather front bringing clearing skies and diminishing winds, just what is needed to set the stage for frost. Low temperatures tonight will range from 26 to 34, the forecast said. Earlier, the forecast had indicated frost might miss the northern third of the state. It was raining at Evansville, Louisville, Fort Wayne and Goshen this morning. But light showers predicted for the entire state were expected to end gradually before nightfall, paving the way for frost. A little warmer weather was seen for Wednesday, but it will turn cooler Thursday and the shower conditions will be resumed on a scattered basis.
