I. U. Guard Is Named Lineman Os The Week By KURT FREUDENTHAL United Frees International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI)-Getting roughed up for three long seasons as a member of Indiana’s football team may have been worth it, after all, for he helped the Hoosiers regain the “Old Oaken Bucket” from arch-rival Purdue. Because he was a stalwart all season and turned in another sparkling performance against Purdue, guard Mike Wasdovlch Tuesday was named the United Press International Midwest “Lineman of the Week.” No Hoosier lineman bagged the weekly accolade previously this season and, considering that the ancient, moss-covered pail is back on the Indiana campus at Bloomington for the first time in 15 years, the individual honor is like frosting on the cake. But Wasdovlch, throughout the season one of the unsung heroes in the lineup, would rather share the recognition. “Others" Deserving “I’m not the only lineman who deserves this honor," he said. “There were six other guys on the field with me, doing their job just as I was doing mine. Without such an all-around effort I could not possibly have won this honor.” However, he conceded it’s a great way to end a collegiate football career—beating Purdue and getting back the Bucket, then being selected as top lineman in the Midwest. Wasdovich was a starter all season at “weak side guard” in Coach Phil Dickens’ winged-T formation, but most of Indiana’s nine opponents found out quickly there was nothing weak about the 6-2, 218-pound veteran from Cleveland. Fact is, many opposing ball carriers would rather try the “strong side” of the line, just to avoid Wasdovich and Don Croftcheck, his backup guard, Helped Stop Walker Against Purdue, Wasdovich was particularly effective in stopping fullback Roy Walker, the Boilermarkers’ top ground gainer. Although Walker scored “Purdue’s lone touchdown on a 10-yard smash up the middle in the first period, he was pretty well contained the rest of the’ game, thanks partly to the efforts of Wasdovich. He played on both offensive and defensive units, averaging close to 40 minutes per game. “He’s a real determined, dedicated player,” said Dickens. “What I like most about him is his consistency.” • Wasdovich, a major in marketing, played tackle in high school and was all-city and all-state, but at Indiana, he never played anything but guard. He earned letters for three seasons. Some day he may go into business, but first he hopes to get a crack at professional football. Pro Basketball NBA Results Boston 125, Detroit 115.

Braves Swap Joe Adcock To Indians ROCHESTER, N.Y. (UPD—Joe Adcock, key figure in a five-man deal, was back with his old boss, Birdie Tebbetts, today because the new Cleveland manager remembered “he never once quit on me” in Milwaukee. Thus, in a nutshell, Tebbetts explained the “motivating factor” behind a trade in which the Indians acquired Adcock and southpaw Jack Curtis from the Braves for reliever Frank Funk, outfielder Don Dillard and player to be named later. Curtis was promptly assigned to Jacksonville of the International League. It was Cleveland's third deal of the baseball meetings and the Detroit Tigers kept pace by making their third trade when they sent third baseman Steve Boros to the Chicago Cubs for righthanded pitcher Bob Anderson. Tebbetts said he was “overjoyed” over the acquisition of the 35-year-old Adcock, whose .248 average with the Braves last season was his lowest in 11 years. “Never Dogs It” "I admire Adcock because he’s one of the few ball players I have ever seen who never has liken a short step,” Birdie said. “He may not be the fastest runner in the world but I have never seen him dog it even once. He gives 100 per cent of himself all the time. “He will be my first baseman, period.” Despite the decline hi his average, Adcock made a respectable long-ball showing with Milwaukee this year by hitting 29 homers and driving in 78 runs in 121 games. ; “I think he’ll like the left-field fence in Cleveland,” Tebbetts said with obvious relish. “Getting Adcock gives me a chance to put the most soughtafter player cm our ball club Tito Francona back in the outfield," Tebbetts continued. “That’s where he's most comforable.” Adcock’s departure from Milwaukee automatically makes Tommie Aaron, Hank’s young brother, the Braves’ regular first hasp man. “We think he can be another Vic Power.” said Milwaukee’s new manager, Bobby Bragan.

"He batted .386 from June 15th until the end of the season.” Strong Relief Pitcher But the big man in the deal from the Braves’ point of view was Funk, who looked like one of the American League’s finest relief pitchers when he won 11 games for the Indians in 1961. A disappointment this year, Funk posted a 2-1 record with the Indians, who finally 1 shipped him to Salt Lake City of the Pacific Coast League where he won two games and lost one. “A strong relief pitcher was vital for us,” explained club President Johnny McHale. “We’re throwing out Funk’s record this year. We happen to think he's an exceptionally fine pitcher.” Dillard, a 26-year-old left handed hitter, was no ball of fire for the Tribe last season, either, batting only .230 and driving in only 14 runs in 95 games. But Bragan likes him and plans to give him a crack at the regular left field job. Curtis, who came to the Braves from the Cubs in mid-season, had a combined 4-6 record this year. The deal between the Tigers and Cubs was the 10th of the winter meetings. Former Bonus Baby Boros, a 26-year-old $25,000 bonus Tiaby who had a brilliant rookie year in 1961, slumped to .228 last season although he hit 16 home runs. Anderson, 27, compiled a 2-7 record for the Cubs this year, mostly in relief’. He owns a 33-45 lifetime mark in the majors. Prior to their five-man trade with the Braves the Indians sold right-handed pitcher Wynn Hawkins to the New York Mets for an estimated $35,000. ■ Hie 25-yefir-bid Hawkins had a 2-7 record at Jacksonville last season after being discharged from the Army in May, then won his only decision when brought up by the Indians in August. Hawkins went tp the Mets after the Indians had turned down an offer for him by- the Yankees because, according to President Gabe Paul, "We didn’t want to sell him to the club we have to battle tor the peimant.”

Berne at Ossian. Poling at Hartford. Geneva at Bryant. Army And Navy Game Is Rated AsATossup NEW YORK (UPI)' — The annual Army-Navy football game at Philadelphia this Saturday is rated even money by the oddsmafcers. But Rose Bowl-bound Southern California, Mississippi and Alabama are listed as favorites for the last Saturday of the regular 1962 collegiate season. Navy has beaten Army in their last three meetings, but the Middies have a 4-5 record this season while Army possesses a 6-3 mark. Southern California, the nation’s top-ranked team, meets a resurgent Notre Dame squad that has won four straight games. The Trojans are picked by 7 points. Third-ranked Mississippi, seeking to nail down a berth in the Sugar Bowl against Arkansas, is a 23-point choice over Mississippi State. Southern California (9-0) and Mississippi (8-0) also have perfect records at stake. Alabama, rated No. 5, is a 15poiht pick to beat Auburn and better its chances for an Orange Bowl berth against Oklahoma. In other season finales, Baylor is favored by 3 over Rice; Florida by 5 over Miami (Fla.); Texas Christian by 6 over Southern Methodist; Boston College by 6 over Holy Cross; Tennessee by 7 over Vanderbilt; Georgia Tech by 10 over Georgia and Oklahoma by 20 over Oklahoma State.

Long Madison Winning Skein Ended Tuesday INDIANAPOLIS (UPI (—Madison’s record 61-game regular season winning streak in Indiana high school basketball was wrecked by Connersville Tuesday night in a 69-66 overtime struggle. The Cubs, finalists in Jhe state tourney last March, went down to their first season defeat since New Albany handed them a 60-55 setback Jan. 24, 1959. But the loss was not unexpected. Madison coach Bud Ritter proved himself a good prophet. He said before the Cubs’ season opener that Connersville probably would be his team’s‘first major test. Beat Vevay, Salem The .Cubs won their first two games of the season from Vevay and Salem to run their string to 61—longest ever racked up by a Hoosiei - schoolboy quintet—and it looked like Connersville was to be No. 62. Late in the third period, the Spartans from the South Central Conference were down by 11 points. A final-period spurt tied the game at 62-all to force the overtime. Dick Colley, a 5-9 junior guard, was Connersville’s hero. He scored five points in the extra session, including a 3-point play, to send the proud Cubs horqe on the short end of the score. Once Beat Attacks It was the second time in recent years that Connersville cljpiwd a long winning string. A few‘years ago the Spartans ruined an ‘otherwise perfect season for Indianapolis Attacks. Terre Haute Gerstmeyer, 18-2 last time, opened in Howard Sharpe’s 19th season with a 68-59 victory over Van Buren, Tommy Jackson and John Grimes splitting 37 points for the Black Cats. Clinton, like Gerstmeyer of the Western Conference, made its debut by beating Cayuga, 62-55.

Sooners tumble from a perennial power to obscurity within their own conference. But even they were not fully prepared for what happened. After losing two of its f irst three games and looking like anything but the team that was supposed to be a national contender in another year, Oklahoma suddenly found itself. With an awesome blend of explosive offense and herculehn defense, Oklahoma shocked six straight foes — shutting out four in a row — and romped unruffled to the Big Eight Conference championship and the Orange Bowl. The man behind this amazing resurgence, capped by Saturday’s 34-6 win over Nebraska, was, of course, Bud Wilkinson, the 46-year-old greyhaired genius of the gridiron named today by
