Johnny Logan, Jim Lemon To Face Release By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Johnny Logan and Jim Lemon reached the same sad point in their major league baseball careers today, that awful moment when a ballplayer hears he’s just about all through. Logan, 36, received the news when the Pittsburgh Pirates asked waivers for the purpose of giving him his unconditional release. And the 35-year-old* Lemon was similarly advised when the Chicago White Sox requested waivers so that they could give him his walking papers, too. Logan, who broke into the majors with the Braves in 1948 and has a .268 lifetime average, still feels he can help some ball club as a utility infielder. He batted .232 in 80 games serving in that capacity with the Pirates last season. Started With Indians Lemon began his major league career with Cleveland in 1950 and spent most of it with Washington. He started the 1962 season with Minnesota, was acquired by Philadelphia and then returned to the American League with the White Sox. During 31 games with the Phillies, Lemon batted .271 while his composite average in the American League with the Twins and White Sox was .186 in 43 games. . The two veterans were let go as the major league clubs revised their rosters to conform with the Oct. 15 deadline. t In addition to asking waivers on Lemon, the White Sox added rookie pitchers Bob Guzek, Tom Hoagland and Ed Nottle. The club also placed outfielder Manly Johnston to Indianapolis of the International League. Cleveland asked waivers on Early Wynn but that was merely to drop him from the active roster. Wynn was named the Indians’ pitching coach two weeks ago. Added Three Rookies The Indians also added three rapkies to their rostefc—outfielder Paul Dicken, infielder Vern Fuller and pitcher Tom Kelley. Washington purchased catcher Tony Brumley from the Los Angeles Dodgers for an unspecified sum. Brumley, 25, batted .292 for Spokane of the PCL and was named to the league’s AllStar team. Don Heffner, popular New York Yankee infielder of ~ the 40s and manager of the San Diego Padres of the Pacific Coast League the last two years, was appointed to the New York Mets’ coaching staff for the 1964 season. The 52-year-old Heffner won the pennant with San Diego by 12 games in 1962 and lost out by a half-game the past season when a controversial game that was halted by rain was not replayed. Heffner previously served as a coach with Kansas City and Detroit. He joins Mel Harder and Wes Westrum as Met coaches and gives manager Casey Stengel an entirely new staff for next year.

Garrett did not compete. Ron Clouse, of Angola, was the top individual with a fine time of 9:52.

The Decatur squad will participate in the sectional meet at Shoaff park Friday. Some 27 schools and 250 runners will be competing, with Ashley the defending champion. Korfh Resignation To Fire Controversy WASHINGTON (UPD—Navy Secretary Fred Korth’s resignation was expected today to fire up a controversy in the Pentagon and Congress over the future of the nuclear power for naval ships. Intentionally or otherwise, the Texan’s retirement ' decision served to emphasize a dispute that has smoldered for many months between the Navy and the Defense Department over the speed with which the fleet should shift to atomic propulsion. A congressional inquiry already had been planned on the basis of .-Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara’s opposition to a second nuclear - powered aircraft carrier. It conceivably could be hastened and almost certainly will pit Vice Adm. Hyman G. Rickover, the atomic power expert, against McNamara in a dramatic congressional controversy. More than a decade ago, Rickover and a few congressional supporters q practically forced nuclear propulsion of submarines on a hesitant Navy. But today the outspoken admiral has the support of the Navy from Korth on down, and of the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) in pressing for a speedier switch to atomic surface ships. Chairman John 0. Pastore, D-R.1., of the joint Congressional Atomic Energy Committee notified McNamara in a letter dated Oct. 9 that he would hold hearings on the new aircraft carrier, which McNamara wants to be conventionally powered. Coincidentally, that was the same day the Navy got the word from McNamara that he was against Korth’s proposal of last Jan. 23 that the flattop be built with nuclear propulsion.

Jackets Play Comets Here Friday Night The Decatur Yellow Jackets will seek to take over undisputed possession of fourth place, and possibly move into a tie for the third position, in the Northeastern Indiana conference race. When they entertain Kendallville’s Comets Friday in Decatur’s final home game of the season. . Decatur’s 20-0 win over Columbia City last week and the Comets’ 32-21 loss to New Haven tied the two clubs with identical 3-2 conference marks. New Haven and Garrett continue their red - hot battle for the conference championship, as both posted wins last Friday to remain tied at the top with undefeated 5-0 records. New Haven tripped Kendallville by a 32-21 score, while Garrett upended defending champion Concordia, 19-12, in a rough and tumble contest at Garrett. „ • Other Games Angola defeated visiting Bluffton, 27-6. in other conference action Friday, while Elmhurst, the only winless team in the 10-team NEIC, was whipped 27-5 in a nonconference game by Fort Wayne South Side. Auburn whipped Berne 27-13 in a non-conference. battle Saturday. Garrett will have third place Angola to contend with this week at the Railroaders’ field in their bid to stay unbeaten, while New Haven plays host to Bluffton at Woodlan. Garrett and New Haven do not meet during the season. In a fourth conference clash Friday, Concordia will seek to snap a string of three conference losses in a row when they entertain Columbia City. Auburn will host Defiance, 0., and Elmhurst battles Fort Wayne Central.

Texas Vaults To Top Spot In College Rating -. NEW YORK (UPI) - The last time Texas reigned as major college football’s No. 1 team —a year ago this month —the Longhorns couldn’t stand prosperity, and if last week’s upset trend continues they may have trouble retaining their freshly won rating, Texas received 30 first place votes from the 35-man United Press International Board of Coaches in this week’s balloting. The Longhorns overpowered Oklahoma, 28-7, last Saturday, to replace the Sooners as the top major college team. Oklahoma tumbled to fifth. • restarts upended the top 10, leaving only three teams—Texas, Wisconsin, (No. 2), and idle Pittsburgh, (No- 3)—undefeated and untied. None of the 10 elite of last week could hold the same position this week. Ohio State jumped three places to fourth despite a 20-20 tie with Illinois, which entered the top 10 for the first time in an eighth place tie. Georgia Tech, Mississippi and Alabama, all Southeastern Conference powers, followed in sixth, seventh and eighth (tie). Tech returned to the top 10 along with lOth-ranked Northwestern after a week’s absence. It wag the first appearance for perennial power Ole Miss in the first 10 this season. The Longhorns were on top for only two weeks last October before they fell when Rice tied them. This Saturday they pit their powerful ground attack against Arkansas in Little Rock in their first defense of the No. 1 position. Texas totaled 344 out of a possible 350 points in the ratings, based on points from 10 to one for votes from first place to 10th. Navy, Penn State and Southern California, all upset last weekend, dropped from the top 10, and the Trojans, defending national champions, fell com-' pletely out of the ratings. The Middies head the second 10, followed in order by Penn State, Duke, Louisiana State and Oregon. Auburn, the only other ranking undefeated-untied team, was 16th; the Air Force 17th, and Missouri 18th. Syracuse and Notre Dame tied for 19th. Wisconsin, which received the other five first place ballots, jumped three places to

Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee 0 0 Q. Is a hostess supposed to wait until all her guests have finished eating before she begins to removp the plates from the dinner table? A. Usually, yes. But if one of the guests is exceedingly stow, then it would be all right for her to begin removing the plates of seme of the other guests. Q. When I accompany my fiancee to her church, am I supposed to put money' on the collection plate for both of us? A. No; you put in your contribution. and she puts in her own. Q. When dining in a restaurant or nightclub, how does a girl excuse herself to go to the powder room? A. She places the unfolded napkin on the table at the left of her plate, saying in effect, “I would like to freshen up a bit.” Her escourt should rise and pull out her chair, and he should remain at the table waiting for her. Suggestion: Make you stay as short as possible. Taking forever to primp doesn’t add to a girl’s popularity. Q. When seated at a bar in a cocktail lounge, are you supposed to tip the bar man? A. While not exactly necessary, it still seems to be expected in some places and especially when one’s change is returned in a small tray. Q. I have received a marriage announcement from the family of a girl whom we know only casually. Am I supposed to counter with a gift? A. A marriage announcement never imposes a gift.
