Joe Kuharich Resigns Post At Notre Dame SOUTH BEND, Ind. (UPD—Joe Kuharich quit as head coach at Notre Dame, one of football’s prize plums, to join the National Football League with the wish that he was “twins so I could handle both jobs." Kuharich, after two weeks of considerations of the offer to become the NFL’s supervisor of officials and administrative assistant to Commissioner Pete Rozelle, an old friend, told Notre Dame Wednesday that he was through. Then he did “the toughest thing I’ve ever had to do in my life, standing up in front of those boys and telling them I wW going so step out.” The football team was called to a hurried meeting after classes, to hear Kuharich announce hi? retirement and reveal that his" frfeshman coach, Hugh Devore, would be “interim coach lot 1963,” tend perhaps longer.It was the second time that Devore has been the Irish “interim coach.” He held the job in 1945, coaching the team to seven wins, two losses and one tie, after the departure of Elmer Lqyden and before Frank Leahy took over the job. Denies Any Pressure “It was absolutely my own de-

East Chicago, Lafayette To Meet Saturday By KURT FREUDENTHAL United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The most eagerly-awaited semi -state tourney battle—next to Columbus vs Muncie Central—will fill the Purdue University Fieldhouse Saturday when old rivals East Chicago Washington and Lafayette take the floor. ~ They’re all even in two tourney meetings and were rated so closely at the end of the regular season that their third collision is a toss-up. 4 Thanks to 5-11 sharpshooter Bobby Miles, East Chicago won a sizzling 67-66 overtime thriller from the Bronchos in last year’s semi-state title round. In their first tourney meeting in 1959, Lafayette prevailed. 56-22. Miles is gone, but fiery Johnny Baratto still has his 6-8 center, Rich Mason, who pumped in 74 points in two regional contests last Saturday, and several other very capable hands. Their game overshadows the Second afternoon scrap in the Northwestern semi-state between surprise entries Royal Center and Greencastle. East Chicago had by far the more difficult tourney route. The Senators waded through their usually tough sectional, then upset highly-ranked Michigan City to get Ulis far, with Baratto flatly | saying the East Chicago regional winner would go all the way. Remember 1960? And through the years, they learned to take Baratto seriously. I His big boys upset unbeaten Muncie Central for the state crown three years ago and went to the cision,” Kuharich said, indicating that there was no pressure placed on him by any source to give up his job, despite frequent rumors that alumni groups were out for his discharge. , Kuharich said he would remain at Notre Dame until April 15, working with Devore, and he added that “the thing that helped me make up my mind was that all the assistants will be retained and Hughie will take over. Announcement of Kuharich’s 'resignation was made by the faculty board in control of athletics, and the appointment of Devore IwAS aj, saynq. time rby the Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, executive vice president of the university and chairman of the board. „ ■■ Kuharich, 46, played college football at Notre Dame and his first head coaching job in college, at the University of San Francisco, brought him in contact with Rozelle, who was sports publicity director while Kuharich tutored the Dons to a 26-14 won-lost record. Kuharich later coached the Chicago Cardinals and the Washington Redskins before coming to Notre Dame. _ Appointment Drew Criticism Kuharich’s appointment at Notre Dame drew great criticism, since he replaced Terry Brennan, fired just before Christmas, 1958, when Joyce announced that Notre Dame was on a search for “excellence.” During Kuharich’s regime with the Irish, in which they never had a winning season, the word “excellence” was recalled frequently in critical phrasing. Three times Kuharich’s teams wound up with a 5-5 record and in his second season, the team won its first game, and its last. But in between it lost eight straight games to set a record losing streak for the school and wound up with a 2-8 record, equalling the worst in Irish history. Overall Kuharich’s Notre Dame teams were 17-23. Kuharich originally came to Notre Dame on a five-year contract, but after his 2-8 season, it was extended with a new fiveyear pact. His current contract had three years to run. Rainy Weather During a rainy season, it’s a good and practical idea to store a large desk blotter in your hall closet.

title match again last year before they were stopped by Evansville Bosse. Mason has plenty of help in 6-4 Joe Zych, 5-11 speedster Bernie Rivers, 5-11 playmaker Leonard Adams and 6-5 Willie Askew. Traditionally, it would be an upset not to have Lafayette in the semi-state. Marion Crawley’s Bronchos mauled five tourney rivals by an average of nearly 22 points, so this is the “acid” test for them. The two- time state champs, plagued by illness and injuries much of the season, check in with a 20-5 record, East Chicago is 18-7. Chuck Scheumann and Dave Morrison, both 6-4, and Denny Brady and Terry Stillabower, both 6-2, were mainstays of Crawley’s quintet most of the season. Lafayette has been in the fourteam state finals 11 times, but not since 1957. Jim Bates, Greencastle’s 26-

Carries 6 Sophs But they won thetr sectional and upset the applecart in the Covington regional, with half a dozen sophomores on the roster, including 6-3 Ron Blotch, their leading scorer. The only senior in the lineup is Nobel New, a 5-9 sparkplug ticketed for the Naval Academy. “We’re young and sporadic,” said Bates, “but we figure if we can defeat Royal Center, anything could happen at night.” Greencastle last made the fourteam finals 30 years ago, losing to Martinsville in the title game. One way to succeed could be by not fouling Royal Center too often. The Bulldogs cashed in on 58 free throws in 77 attempts to win the .
