The opening rounds of both the Los Angeles Classic and the Quaker City Tournament produced spectacular upsets and play in three other tournaments suggested that the upset lightning has only begun to strike. The most surprising results on Wednesday night were Northwestern’s 62-61 last-gasp triumph over fourth-ranked Stanford and St. Joseph of Philadelphia’s 58-57 lastsecond victory over seventhranked Bowling Green. Both losers started the tournaments unbeaten and with designs on displacing Cincinnati as the nation’s No. 1 team. Illinois Routs Penn Fifth-ranked Illinois made an Impressive debut with a 98-66 rout of Pennsylvania/in the Holiday Festival Tournament in New York, meanwhile, but 12th-ranked West Virginia staggered to a 6564 decision over Boston College in a game that nearly produced the biggest upset of all. Ken Lutgens, a substitute who didn't see any action in the first half, tipped in a desperation shot with four seconds left to give Northwestern its victory at Los Angeles. Stanford, which started the game with a seven-game winning streak, had gone ahead, 6160, with 13 seconds remaining.

It was the 18th time the lead changed hands in the thriller at. Philadelphia. Bruce Burton’s 34 points led Brigham Young to an 84-73 win over favored LaSalle’, Providence beat Delaware, 70-57, with the help of 20 points by Ray Flynn, and Wally Jones’ 18 points paced Villanova to a 72-54 victory over Manhattan in the Quaker City’s other first-round action.

Soaring 60's In Sports To Be Continued ■ By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Editors NEW YORK (UPI) — It’s the soaring sixties, all righty so far as sports generally are concerned. For business was booming in 1962 and promises to conjrfiue on the same course in 19<63. The merry tune the box offices clicked led to predictions that sports would coritinue to get more than their share of the vast amount of entertainment dollars. There was only one dark cloud on the 1963 horizon —a dispute between the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). It threatens the chances of United States success in the 1963 Pan American Games and the 1964 Olympics — to such an extent that even President Kennedy intervened. The two groups are bidding for control of amateur athletics, which always has been in the hands of the AAU, with track and field the majori sport involved. The President called for arbitration to settle the differences. At year’s end there was a lot of behind the scenes maneuvering and , the chances for a settlement of the power dispute appeared good. On the positive side there was drama aplenty. Wills Breaks Record Another of the baseball records they .said would never *be broken was broken: Fleet Maury Wills of the Los Angeles Dodgers stole 104 . bases to break the record of 96 held by the immortal Ty Cobb. ! Other baseball highlights — ‘ Warren Spahn of the Milwaukee; Braves brought his victory total ; to 327 to become the biggest win-1 ning left hander in baseball his-J tory, ‘ surpassing the 36-year-oldl mark of Eddie Plank; the ma- i jors, with the additioif of new ■ National League clubs in New York and Houston, drew 21 million fans, the highest attendance ever’; the San Francisco Giants de- ( seated the Los Angeles Dodgers I in the fourth National League pennant playoff in history and then carried the World Series to seven i games — and the final out — be- j fore bowing to the New York 1 Yankees. Boxing saw an ex - convict, | Charles (Sonny) Liston, crowned as the, heavyweight champion of the world — and only time will teR/whether that will be ranked on/the positive side. He knocked oik scared Floyd Patterson in the first round of their bally-boo-ed title fight in Chicago.. ' “ Aqd as .1962 fadeci rinjo a now year, boxing still was wondering what effect the tragic death of Benny (Kid) Paret would have on the future of the game. When Paret died of injuries suffered as he lost the Welterweight crown to Emile Griffith, there were the usual demands to abolish the sport. Laver Wins Titles Australian Rod Laver’s grand slam in tennis was another bright spot. He .won the Australian, French, Wimbledon and U./ S. titles in that order, the first tennis player to do so since Don Budge .in 1938. Arnold Palmer, Pennsylvania’s golden boy. dominated goK again but there were Strong indications his reign may be coming to an end. The golfer with- the best chance to take over was-"22-year-old6 Jack Nicklaus, the 1962 U.S. Open champion. Palmer won the Masters and the British Open and again led the money. winners with an offi-

cial total of 881,448 (actually he more than doubled that amount), but in head to head duels with young Nicklaus he was defeated both times. Nicklaus 1 beat him in the Open playoff to thwart Palmer’s bid for a grand slam—the U.S. and British Opens, the Masters and the PGA. Then, in the SIOO,OOO World Series of Golf at Akron, Ohio, against Palmer and PGA champ Gary Player, Nicklaus won again, It was an old story in profess sional basketball — the Boston Celtics the champions again tvith string-bean Wilt Chamberlain of the San Francisco Warriors ing as the Philadelphia Warriors last season) as the individual standout. In college basketball it was an old story, but an unexpected one as Cincinnati, for the second year in -a row, defeated favored Ohio State for the NCAA title.

Pacific Coast Strong College football, which set new attendance records with an overall increase of 2.66 per cent, was featured by the return of the Pacific Co,ast to the front rank of the sectional powers. The University of Southern California was crowned the national champitfn with Wisconsin, from the always power-packed Midwest, finishing in the No. 2 spot in the United Press International ratings. Track and field got into the all-star act, too, another rtiark considered Unsurpassable, was surpassed. A U. S. Marine, John Uelses, using a controversial fiber glass pole, broke the 16-foot mark. And New Zealand’s Peter Snell lowered the world’s mile record, to 3:54-4 and the half mile mark to 1:45.1. To the surprise of no one, the U.S. continued to dominate international competition. In the big

ones, it reudned the America’s Cup, emblematic of world yachting supremacy, when Weatherly beat the Australian challenger, Gretel, 4 to 1; Palmer and Sam Snead teamed to defend successfully the Canada Cup; the U.S. retained the Wightman (tennis) and Curtis L.GP,F( Cups and the U.S. men’s track and field team beat Russia.
