Ohio State And Cincinnati Both Win Wednesday Although Cincinnati and' Ohio State aren’t scheduled to meet during the regular college basketball season, the Bearcats already own a “victory” over their rivals from the Big Ten conference. Hie triumph was gained by comparing the scores of their games against their first mutual opponent of the new campaign. The top-ranked Bearcats walloped Virginia, 91-42, Monday night at Cincinnati. The touring Cavaliers then moved on to Columbus Wednesday night for a game with Ohio State. The Buckeyes didn’t come close to matching Cincinnati’s 49-point bulge (against the same team but they showed enough to gain a 70-46 victory. Cincinnati, meanwhile, chalked up its third straight triumph by turning back Miami of Ohio, 58-36. Boast Impressive Figures The Bearcats’ statistics for their first three games are mighty impressive. They have totaled 246 points for an average of 82 per game and have allowed only 117 for an average of 39. In the game against Miami, the Bearcats used the same sticky defense that carried them to victories over Ohio State in the last two NCAA championship finals. George Wilson paced Cincinnati with 25 points. Ohio State needed help from reserve guard Dick Taylor in overcoming Virginia. The Buckeyes were leading by only one point when Taylor entered the game with about five minutes left in the first half and dropped in five straight points to give his team a 30 23 bulge at halftime. Cavaliers Halt Bradds Taylor and Jim Doughty wound up with 15 points each but big Gary Bradds, who had scored 63 points in Ohio State’s first two games, was limited to 10. North Carolina, led by the decond-half heroics of sophomores

Ken Hubbs Os Cubs Is Rookie Os Year BOSTON (UPI) - The Chicago Cubs finished far back in the pack) but they produced the National League "Rookie of the Year" for the second straight season today when second baseman Ken Hubbs won the award in a near-unanimous vote. Hubbs, who set two major league records for fielding during the 1962 season, drew 19 out of a possible 20 votes among the members of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America! who participated in the balloting. The lone other vote went to first baseman-outfielder Donn Clendenon of the Pittsburgh Pinaites. Playing for the ninth-place Cubs, the 20-year-old Hubbs gave his team a record of “two straight” since outfielder Billy Williams, also of the Cubs, was named the league’s Rookie of the Year for 1961. Hubbs did it all with his glove. He gained national prominence when he smashed two of Bobby Doerr’s 14-year-old major league records by playing in 78 straight games without making an error and handling 418 chances during that span. Doerr set the two previous records ias a member-of the Boston Red Sox, going without an error in 72 games and 414 successive chances. Hubbs, who batted .260 in 160 games for the Cubs, scored 90 runs and drove in 49. The 26-year-old Clendenon batted .302 in 80 games, hitting seven homers and driving in 28 runs. Billy Cunningham and Ray Respess, rolled to a 64-48 victory over Clemson. Elsewhere, Holy Cross opened its season with an 84-66 victory over American International, Fordham whipped Yale, 73-54; LaSalle outclassed Lafayette, 95-59; Mississippi bounced Sewanee, 7864; Texas walloped East Texas State, 71-38, and Oklahoma State soared to a 65-47 victory over Montana State.
Senators And Orioles Make Player Trade WASHINGTON (UPD-General Manager George Selkirk, who promised “a number of changes” among the Washington Senators, backed up his word today by obtaining three new players in a five-man deal with the Baltimore Orioles. Completing his second deal since taking over his new job with the Senators, Selkirk obtained infielder Marv Breeding, outfielder Barry Shetrone and pitcher Art Quirk from the Orioles for pitcher Pete Burnside and infielder Bob Johnson. At the baseball meetings in Rochester, N.Y., last week, the Senators traded first baseman Harry Bright to Cincinnati for first baseman Rogelio Alvarez. Selkirk said Shetrone would bolster the team’s sagging left-hand-ed hitting corps. He added that the 28-year-old Breeding probably would play shortstop or third base. Quirk, viewed as a promising lefthander, pitched well against the Senators on two occasions last year before Baltimore sent him down to Rochester., The 24-year-old southpaw had two wins and two tosses with Baltimore last season and a 7-6 record at Rochester. Breeding looked particularly good against the Senators last year. He batted .304 in 14 games against them. In Bumside, the Orioles obtained a pitcher who won five and lost 11 for the Senators last year. Johnson, 26, batted .288 for the Senators last year and hit 12 home runs.

UPI Selects All-America Football Team By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sport* Editor NEW YORK (UPI) — United Press International today presents its 1962 All-America football team, chosen by the nation-wide ballots of 368 sports writers and broadcasters. They selected as the finest players at their positions in the land: Ends — Pat Richter, Wisconsin and Hal Bedsole, Southern California. Tackles — Bobby Bell, Minnesota and Jim Dunaway, Mississippi. Guards — John Treadwell, Texas and Jack Cvercko, Northwestern. Center — Lee Roy Jordan, Alabama. Quarterback — Terry Baker, Oregon State. Halfbacks — Jerry Stovall, Louisisna State and Mel Renfro, Oregon. «~ Fullback — George Saimes, Michigan State. With 11 points awarded tor a first place vote and 6 for a second, Bell led the balloting with a total of 3,627 points out of a possible total of 4,048. Stovall was the leading point getter among the backs with a total of 3,239. Richter of the Big Ten champion Badgers is the only repeater from the 1961 All-America team. He was the only junior on that mythical eleven. Bell and Dunaway were second team choices last year while Saimes was on the third team. There are three juniors on the 1962 team — Cvercko, Bedsole and Renfro. All the rest are seniors. The Midwest, with four players, dominates the 1962 all-star aggregation, which reflected the return of the Pacific Coast, led by undefeated Southern California, to the top football power sections of the nation for the first time since before World War 11. The Pacific Coast placed three players on the first team as did the South, with the Southwest getting the other berth. It marked the first time since 1936 hat the Pacific Coast placed three players on the team. The last time the Pacific Coast placed a player on a UPI All-America team was back in 1958 when tackle Ted Bates of Oregon was selected. South Place* Nine In the personnel of the * first three teams, tiie South led with a totlail of nine players, followed by the Pacific Coast and Midwest with eight players each. The balloting this year bore out the well-known fact that there was a wealth of star quarterbacks with the left-handed passing Baker leading the parade. The voting also reflected the increasing number of players, outstanding in both offense and defense. For instance, Dave Behrman of Michigan State, the second team center, also received votes for guard and tackle as did Don McKinnon of Dartmouth, the third team center and Roy Masfield of Washington, who led the list of centers receiving honorable mention. There also were a number of players who received votes for both guard and tackle positions. In all cases the players were chosen for the position for which they received the most
