Texas Crowned By Coaches As National Champ NEW YORK (UPI) — Two years of frustration during which the University of Texas missed the national football ti.tle by a total of seven points ended for the Longhorns today when they were crowned the 1963 major college football champions by the United Press International Board of Coaches. For 13 seniors, the national championship was particularly gratifying, remembering how narrowly they missed the honor the last two seasons. “We had a little pact between us( seniors) this year that we wouldn’t settle for less than 10-0,” senior tailback Tommy Ford, the Southwest Conference’s leading rusher, revealed. The Longhorns produced the perfect record, the only one in major football this season and Texas’ first in 43 years, to attain the apex which slipped through their grasp in 1961, when their only blemish was a 6-0 defeat to Texas Christian, and again last season when Rice hurt them with a 14-14 tie. Navy Finishes Second Navy finished a distant second, but nonetheless reached the highest ranking held by a service academy in the 14-year-history of the UPI ratings. They held the runnerup spot for the last montii of the ratings and collected the other four firstplace ballots. The Middies play Army Saturday in .their traditional rivalry for a possible bowl invitation but their opportunity to unseat Texas was spoiled by a 32-28 upset by Southern Methodist, a team coach Darrell Royal’s eleven downed, 17-12. No newcomers could crack the top 10 the final five weeks of the season but the third through 10th positions were reshuffled in the final tally. Pittsburgh, a loser only to Navy, replaced Michigan State in third; IDinais, the Big .Ten champ; climbed four places to finish fourth and Big Eight champion Nebraska advanced one position to fifth. Auburn Climbs Up Auburn, once-beaten, jumped from ninth to sixth; . twice-tied Mississippi dropped from fourth to seventh and Oklahoma advanced from 10 th to eighth. Alabama fell to ninth and Michigan State completed the top 10 in 10th place. Texas, Oklahoma, Mississippi and Alabama were the only members of the 1962 top 10 to repeat. Mississippi State, Syracuse and Arizona State led the second 10 in Uth, 12th and 13th, respectively, Memphis State, unbeaten but tied, claimed 14th and Big Six winner Washington was 15 th. Sixteenth was a threeway deadlock among Southern California, the defending national champion, Penn State and Missouri. North Carolina finished 19th and Baylor filled No. 20. Ron DiGrovio Named As Most Valuable LAFAYETTE, Ind. (UPI) — His teammates Monday night named quarterback Ron DiGraviJ), the Big Ten’s top passed, Purdue’s “most valuable’’ football player for 1963. DiGravio, whose three touchdown passes netted Purdue a 21-15 victory over Indiana in their traditional season finale last Saturday, compelled 88 of 161 passes for a .546 average in nine games.

Indianapolis Joins Pacific Coast Loop SAN DIEGO, Calif (UPD— Indianapolis and Little Rock have joined the Pacific Coast League, which will operate 12 teams next year stretching' about 4,800 miles from Honolulu to Indianapolis. The PCL will be divided into two divisions and there will be only one visit from each team into the other division each season, league officials said Monday. PCL directors voted unanimously to expand to 12 teams, including Indianapolis, International League pennant, playoff and Governor’s Cup champion last season. The Indians also captured the final American Association pennant in 1962. PCL officials gave Indianapolis 24 hours to decide its. future and Ownie Bush, president of the Indians, told PCL President Dewey Soriano his club was glad to be in the Pacific loop, although earlier there had been some talk that the Tribe would drop out of baseball rather than play with the Western teams. “We’re glad to be in a league where we’re wanted,” said Bush. The shift was the result of months of verbal fireworks between the majors and the minors as they fought to keep each league a 10-team loop. “But the majors would not come through with the $78,000 to SBO,OOO we needed for travel money if we stayed as a 10team league with Indianapolis and Little Rock in it,” said Tommy Richardson, IL president. “So we just had to reduce.” Richardson admitted the new PCL will probably operate without help from the majors. The IL now will operate with Syracuse, Toronto, Buffalo, Jacksonville. Richmond, Atlanta, Columbus and Rochester. The PCL will operate with Indianapolis, Little Rock, Denver, Salt Lake City, Oklahoma City and Dallas in the eastern division. In the western will be . Tacoma, Seattle, Spokane, I Hawaii, San Diego and Port- I land. The PCL schedule has not 1 yet been drawn up. . The PCL had originally hoped I to operate as a 10-team league, “but we couldn’t leave a city like Indianapolis, which has ( been in organised baseball 75 < years, sitting out in the cold,” ( said Rosy Ryan, general manager of Tacoma. Indianapolis operated as the . farm team of the Chicago White Sox last season. Claude Weeks Dies I < Monday At Hospital Claude H. Weeks, 52, basketball coach at the Hartford City 1 high school for several years, died | Monday at the Veterans hospital . at Marion, where he had been a ( patient for some time. His wife, , Jane, died one week ago. Surviving are a son, Michael, , a junior at Wabash College; his , mother, Mrs. Dorothy Weeks Hall of Lansing, Mich.; two sisters and three brothers. Funeral services have tentively been set for 10 a. m. Wednesday at the Meeks mortuary’ in Muncie, with burial in Mt. Tabor cemetery, Delaware county.
Angels Trade Leon Wagner To Cleveland SAN DIEGO, Calif. (UPD—A trade that was two years in the making—Leon Wagner for Bar-, ry Latman—may take the rest' of the American League 10 years to figure out. “There must be more to it than that,” declared an astonished Ralph Houk of the Yankees who along with most base- 1 ball men felt that the trade was rather one-sided in Cleveland’s favor. Actually there was more to tiie deal than the Los Angeles Angels merely giving up the 29-year-old Wagoner to the Indians for the 27-year-old Latman. “In addition to Latman,” explained Angel General Manager Fred Haney, “we will receive another player from Cleveland by March 1, and it will be a major leaguer, not a minor leaguer.” Even so there was considerable wonderment as to why the Angels would give up a slugging outfielder like Wagner, who drove in 90 runs, his 26 homers and batted .291 even though he slumped practically half the year. “We weren’t the least bit anxious to give up Wagner,” said Haney, “we need pitching. We also have some fine young hitters coming up, kids like Ed Kirkpatrick and Dick Simpson among others. That’s why we felt we could spare Wagner.” The prevailing feeling in other quarters, however, was that the Angels wearied of Wagner when his average nose-dived 60 points from .350 in July and when he hit only two of his homers and drove in only 19 of his runs at home all last season. There was also some conjecture Wagner’s general attitude may have influenced the Angels to get rid of him. But that was emphatically denied by Haney and Manager Bil Rigney. “I like Wagner, he was very popular with the players and I think he did a whale of a job with us,” said Rigney. “We needed pitching and wp think Latman can be of tremendous help, either as a starter or reliever.” Georgia Tech Back Signs With Chiefs KANSAS CITY (UPI) —Halfback Joe Auer of Georgia Tech has been signed by the Kansas City Chiefs of the American Football League. He was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League. Auer, a speedster, has been clocked in 9.7 for the 100-yard dash. 0“ 0 Household Scrapbook By Roberts Lee 0 0 No-Mess Glue Job Prevent any after-mass in your gluing jobs by placing a piece of waxed paper on top of the glued articles before putting on weights to help hold them together while the glue hardens.* This will-prevent the weight from clinging to the glued object. - Plant Holder Two items you ordinarily throw away can be used together to make attractive plant containers. Take a clean tin can and coat the exterior with White shellac. Before the shellac can dry — and you'll have to be quick about this — sprinkle the can with crushed eggshells. The result will be an unusually decorated plant holder. For a colored effect, use a permanent ink or dye on the shell fragments. Egg shells are porous and will hold the color.

•e Annual Draff By NFL Long Drawn Affair CHICAGO (UPI) — The National Football League struggled into the dawn today to attempt to wind up its annual draft of college talent and get on about the business of signing raw material against the bids of the rival American League. The NFL plum-picking session progressed at the slowest pace in history as every team cautiously sounded out prospects before it made its official selectionThus the first round required 8 hours and 8 minutes compared to the previous record of 4 hours 55 minutes. The second round was completed in 4 hours and 8 minutes and the third, with a 15*minute time limit imposed for each choice, in 2 hours 25 minutes, But the result was that after almost 15 hours, the 14 teams in the league had named only 42 college players of a total of 280 supposed to be chosen, and each team had obtained righto to only three players. Hie pattern paid off for some clubs. Four signed their No. 1 selections before midnight, Minnesota tackle Carl Eller with Minnesota, Tennessee tackle Dick Evey with Chicago, Utah State quarterback Bill Munson with Los Angeles, and Indiana halfback Marv Woodson with Baltimore. Two No. 2 picks were wrapped up too, Southern California end Hal Bedsole by Minnesota and Kentucky tackle Herschel Turner by St. Louis. The club owners, plagped with the problem of completing the draft so that they can continue trying to sign prospects under the threat from the AFL, settled down for an all night stand in an attempt to complete the 20 rounds scheduled. San Francisco made Texas Tech end Dave Parks the No. 1 pick of the NFL meeting, followed by guard Bob Brown of Nebraska by the Philadelphia Eagles, halfback Charles Taylor of Arizona State by Washington and Texas tackle Scott Appleton by Dallas, picked after a two hoqrs and 39 minute wait, longest ever in a draft meeting. Other first round picks were Southern California quarterback Pete Beathard by Detroit, Louisville tackle Ken Kortas by St. Louis, Pittsburgh halfback Paul Martha by Pittsburgh, Ohio State halfback Paul Warfield by Cleveland, Oklahoma halfback Joe Don Looney by New York, and Nebraska tackle Lloyd Voss by Green Bay.
