A crowd of 31.530 paid a record California gate of »M» 8W to witneea the two fights Th* t»ns left the 1(4.000 seat Colwcum sut.-f..<l they had sren four top-noUh ring performers giving their best Crowd Wbreps K <» With about half the crowd from Mexico, the south of th* border delegation got In its whoops and cheers over Becerra’s repeat knockout victory against Halimi who tost his title to the Guadalajara battler last July. Becerra weighed 111 for the bout and Halimi came in at 117tfc. | And in sportsmanlike fashion the crowd accepted Ortiz's victory over the Mexicans’ other idol because; the New Yorker clearly was the: better man all the way, piling up, a big margin on superior boxing and then ending it cleanly and decisively. In many respects the BecerraHalimi fight was a repeat of their first meeting. Halimi was ahead on all cards when Becerra uncorked a pair of tremendous lefts. | the first to the body and the sec-. ond to the jaw that sent the ! Frenchman face down to the canvas for the full count. Halimi fought hard, perhaps harder and better than be did in their first meeting. He even had the champion down for a one-count in the second round, although Becerra thought he slipped. Prediction Cornea Tree Ortiz had said before the fight that Torres was not experienced enough to beat him. He proved he was eh so right as be cleverly avoided the l»-year-old Mexican's bull-like rushes with all the cleverness of a matador working El Toro. And when he opened a cut over Torres' eye. Ortiz peppered it constantly with stinging jabs as he sidestepped his opponent to pileup a big point margin. Ortiz mixed with Torres, but only when he felt it was to his advantage.

Sophomores Are Outstanding On Big Ten Teams CHICAGO lUPD — Th* nmkrfi that aofAomore* can’t win tn Big T»n basketball *bouid ba <U»proved Ihl* »ea*o»i With roughly half of the season completed, three sophomore* are the mainstay* of the league leading Ohio Stale flva. another la • *tar with the runner-up Minneota quintet, and four of the top II scorer* In the league are rook let in Intercollegiate cornpHittoo Why can they win the "big games" now when they couMn'i in the past* More experience in grade school and high school, bet jtrr high school coaching, and bet ter physical conditioning, coaches contend. The standout sophomores of the Big Ten so far have to be Ohio State'* Jerry Lucas. Mel Nowell and John Havlicek. Purdue's Tar ry Dischinger. lowa's Dm Nelaon and Minnesota's Rny Cronk. Luca* Third in Scoring Lucas was billed as thr best when he was a Middletown. Ohio, high school player, and he spurned the scholarship offers of nearly 150 colleges to enter his home state university. ’ So far. even though he hasn't been playing 40 minutes a game, he’s more than exceeded the expectations of his coach, Fred Taylor. and this week ranks third in the Big Ten in scoring with a 25 .' point per game average. But Nowell, from Columbus. Ohio, and Havlicek, from Lansing, Ohio, also are sophomores and are nearly as important to the Buckeyes* drive to become the first unbeaten Big Ten champion since 1943. Nowell Is tied for ninth place among the league’s scorers with a 16 8 average and Havlicek is 21st with a 12.5 mark. “If we didn't have Lucas," Taylor said, “everybody would be talking about what a great sophomore Havlicek is.” Praise From Ceaches Dischinger, another “big” center from Terre Haute. Ind., has been the league leading scorer since the first conference games and currently is hitting the nets at a 30.1 clip per game. Cronk, like Dischinger 6-feet 6-inches tall, ranks eighth in league scoring with a 17.2 average, and he, like Lucas, draws maximum praise trom his coach. o “He’s got things to learn, John Kundla said, "but in another >-eat he could be as good as anybody we’ve ever had ” i f Nelson is 13th among the Big Ten scorers with a 16.4 point per game average, and so far he has been the major scoring threat ot the Hawkeyes in their drive to a fourth place tie in the conference chase. And unless this sextet wavers in the stretch, don’t try and sell Coaches Taylor. Kundla, Ray Eddv of Purdue or Sharm Scheuerman of lowa the theory that they can’t win with sophomores. 10-Game Grid Card Announced By Navy ANNAPOLIS.

Calhoun Favored To Beat Ryan Tonight NEW YORK (UPI) - Middleweight Rory Calhoun of White Plains, N.Y., is a 7-5 favorite to whip “Irish Billy” Ryan of Mass., tonight in their scheduled 10-round TV bout at Madison Square Garden. Ryan, billed as a protege of former heavyweight c h a m pi on Rocky Marciano, is expected to rsrrv a four-to-six pound weight advantage into the ring, but Calhoun is favored because of his greater experience. Rory also has previous experience against rough light heavyweights.

Both teams sport unblemished rec--2 in*the press polls, respectively, in the press polls, respectively. Reed, who also teaches at the Lincoln school and coaches the Decatur junior high and freshman teams, received the appointment on a recommendation from Gerald Strickler, another well-known athletic official. Strickler had originally been assigned the game, but cancelled out because he was being sent to Costa Rica by the state department. ' The recent mounting of tensions in that part of the world forced the state department to cancel the trip, however, in the meantime Strickler had advised Muncie school officials that he would be gone and suggested Reed as hi* replacement for the scheduled thriller. ’•
