Heisman Award Voted To Navy Star Staubach ANNAPOLIS, Md. (UPI) - Roger Staubach, Navy's runaway winner of the Heisman award as the top college football player of 1963, asked for only one thing more today —a victory over Army. “The award is something I’ll treasure all my life," said the 21-year-old Middle quarterback from Ccininnati, Ohio. “Naturally, I'm extremely and pleased. Thig is really great, but we’ve still got the Army game.” Staubach, only the fourth junior to gain the award during the 29 years it has been given by the Downtown Athletic Club, made his comments even as the traditional Army-Navy game officially was being postponed from Nov. 30 to Dec. 7 because of the late President Kennedy’s death. Staubach’s coach, Wayne Hardin, said, “I never personally had any doubt that he would win it. I think that he deserved the award and am very proud of him. I know that he realizes that without the fine play of his • teammates he would not have been able to win the award.” The 6-foot, 2-inch, 190-pound Ohioan, who dref a near landslide total of 1,860 points in the balloting by sports writers, broadcasters and telecasters throughout the nation compared with only 504 points for runnerup Billy Lothridge of Georgia Tech, readily conceded he could not have won the award alone. “I owe it to everyone," he said. “My grade school coach .. .My coaches in high school and junior college . . . Coach Hardin and, of course, all my teammates.” Staubach, who will be presented with the award at the Downtown AC in New York on Dec. 4, was mentioned on 694 of the 784 votes cast. He received 517 votes for first place, 132 for second, and 45 for third. He was voted first in each of the five selections of the nation. Points were computed on a basis of three for a first place/ vote,’ two for second and one for third. ' Lothridge, Georgia Tech’s brilliant quarterback, received 65 first place votes while halfback Sherman Lewis of Michigan State, who wound up third with 369 points, polled 53 first place votes. . Don Trull of Baylor finished fourth with 253 points while Scott Appleton of Texas was fifth with 194.

Big Ten Title Al Stake In Game Thursday By United Press International Michigan State and Illinois wound up practice sessions Wednesday ftsr lheir Thanksgiving Day game in Spartan Stadium to decide the Big Ten football champion arid Rose Bowl representative. Officials expected a crowd of about 70,000 for the game that was postponed from last Saturday because of the death of President Kennedy. Hundreds of ticket holders returned last Saturday’s tickets for refunds and sales z for the turkey day meeting between the league-leading Spartans and the second place Illini were moving slowly. Meanwhile, secrecy shrouded the workouts of coach Duffy Daugherty’s warriors at East Lansing Tuesday. The normally voluble Daugherty was loath to discuss what his charges were up to behind the barred gates. There was speculation that Daugherty was working to tighten up the celebrated Spartan defense, which betrayed signs of loosening up in its last outing against Notre Dame. ’At the enemy encampment, Illinois football coach Pete Elliott hobbled while his athletes hustled through a final light drill at Champaign. Elliott pronounced his team fit and “up” for the clash, but could not say the same, for himself. Elliott wore a plaster cast on his left leg, which suffered torn Monday when a bruising halfback charged into him by mistake. Light workouts also were held • at Minnesota and Wisconsin training fields. The Badgers meet the Gophers in a morning game Thursday. Michigan worked on a defense it hoped would stop Ohio State. And Ohio State worked on one it hoped would stop Michigan. They meet Saturday in a game which was originally set for last weekend. Two other Saturday opponents are Indiana and Purdue, who will tangle for the Old Oaken Bucket at Bloomington. The Hoosiers were cheered by the return to action of sophomore wingback Don Dilly who suffered a charleyhorse against Oregon. At Purdue, quarterback Ron Di Gravio appeared to be in top pass-flipping form. He was recovering from a shoulder injury.

ams Central led, 44-37, at the quarter. 1 In the fourth quarter the Jets stretched their lead, as the Commodores hit only two field goals in the period. The Monroe team’s loss of Roger Schnepp and high-scoring Clouse, via the perAthletics And Orioles Trade First Basemen KANSAS CITY, Mo. (UPD— The Kansas City Athletics had completed a general house cleaning today with the trade of Norm Siebern to the Baltimore Orioles for Jim Gentile and $25,000. The exchange of first basemen Tuesday marked the departure of the last of the old Athletics, those who were on the team’s roster wheW Charles ’O. Finley purchased the club in January, 1961. Finley has wielded a busy broom from the start in his efforts to rebuild the Athletics. But he has swept at a springcleaning pace during the past eight days in a crash program to add power to the lineup. Last week, the Athletics sent second baseman Jerry Lumpe and pitching mainstays Dave Wickersham and Ed Rakow to the Detroit Tigers in exchange for slugger Rocky Colavito, a right-handed swinger. The Tiers also sent along relief pitcher Bob Anderson, and $50,000 with Colavito. That was the first step in Kansas City’s program for power. The second step in the program came Tuesday when they got Gentile, a left-handed slugger. “We fell that now we have i the best one -two home run , . Combination that Kansas City i has ever had,” said Athletics General Manager Pat Friday. Siebern, the last varsity holdover from the club Finley purchased, was the only sembalanee of, power in the Kansas City lineup during the past ( three seasons. He batted cleanup. His best year was 1962 when he hit 25 home runs, drove in 117 and batted .308. Last year he hit 16 homers, drove in 83 runs and batted .272. Gentile, who at 29 is one year younger than Siebern. had a poor year last season. He batted .248, hit 24 homers and drove in 72 runs. But Gentile has produced more for the Orioles in the past four seasons that Siebern has produced for the Athletics. During that period, Gentile hit 124 homers, drove in 398 runs and batted .272. Siebern hit 78 home runs, drove in 367 runs and batted .289.

sonal foul route, late in the quarter failed to dull the Jets’ attack. It was a cold night from the field for the Commodores as they hit only 15 two-pointers, compared to Adams Central’s 26. Free throws helped keep the Decatur Catholic team in the game. They hit 16 to Adams Central’s 11. Clouse, turning in better performances with each game, dropped in 24 points to lead all scorers. The Jets Don Eglcy hit 13 and Roger Schnepp and Mike Ross both scored seven. Ed Kohne led the Commodores scoring column with 13 points, followed by Larry Gase with eight points, five of which were free throws that sparked the Commodore’s second quarter rally. John Lose and Jim Schultz turned in good shot-blocking performances against the tall Adams Central quintet. The Decatur Catholic squad committed 20 personal fouls in the game, as compared to Adams Central’s 21. The Commodores open their home season tonight, meeting Marion Bennett at the DecatuF gym. Adams Central will host Dunkirk Friday, Dec. 6, in its next start. Commodores FG FT TP J.
