Yellow Jackets Lose To Elmhurst Saturday Night In Conference Encounter

By Bob Shraluka The Elmhurst Trojans proved to the Decatur Yellow Jackets Saturday evening that balanced scoring pays off in the win column, as they had six players m twin figures and romped to an 85-74 in a Northeastern Indiana conference game. Greg Ladd came up with a splendid performance for the Jackets, bouncing back from his * lowest scoring night of the season Friday night for 33 tallies Saturday night, his high production of the campaign. But Ladd got little scoring help from his mates, while all five Trojans were constantly bombing the meshes, and controlling the backboards with their huge front line. Ladd scored his first of nine buckets after just 16 seconds had elapsed on the clock to give his team a 2-0 lead. The Jackets held leads of 3-2, 4-2, 6-4 and 7-6, before Glass’ jumper with 4:28 to play in the period put the Trojans in front 9-7. By period's end, the hosts had widened the gap to 20-12. Close to Four Decatur closed to 20-16 early in the second round before the Trojans began to swish the nets again, and in two and a half minutes they had boosted their lead to 29-19. Sam Blythe’s one-hand-er at the halftime gun cut the Trojan lead to 40-33. Leading 59-44 with 1:42 to play in the third period, Elmhurst ripped the contest wide open in the final 50 seconds of the period, when they scored twice on stolen balls and once on a rebound, and held a 66-48 lead entering the final quarter. The Jackets kept battling in the fourth period and with 3:10 to play had trimmed the margin to 77-66, but threw the ball away on errant passes twice in a row. and never got any closer the rest of the way. Six in Doubles Ladd’s 33 tallies led all scorers, but Craig McEwan was the only other Decaturite in double figures with 11. All five Elmhurst starters and one substitute the twin figures, with Glass’ 13 topping the parade. The officials refused to let the two clubs play basketball, as they made a free-throw jnatch out of the game by whistling 49 fouls, 27 on the Trojans and 22 on Decatur. The two teams shot 77 free throws, with the Jackets hitting 30 of 45 and Elmhurst 21 of 32. The Decatur reserves won their eighth victory in 13 outings with a thrilling 43-39 conquest of the Trojan reserves. Decatur, with a 2-11 season mark, returns to action Friday when they travel to Angola to meet the Hornets in an NEIC match.

Tony Lerna Is Winner Bing Crosby Open PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. <UPl>—Champagne Tony Lerna bought his favorite bubbly for all hands—and gratefully drank some himself — after squeezing out a last-round 76 that still gave him the Bing Crosby National Pro-Amateur golf title by three strokes. Gale winds, rain and famed Pebble Beach —a 6-747-yard golfers’ nightmare—proved too tough for 60 of the world’s finest tournament pros Sunday. Not a single one of them was able to equal Pebble’s par of 72 and one shaken pro, Bob Harrison, blew to an even 100. Even the colorful Lema, who got his nickname because, of his congenial habit of buying champagne for newsmen and friends whenever he wins •' a tournament, had his ups and downs on his last round. Going into the final 18, he was tied with Canada’s Al Balding with eight-under-par totals of 208. But when it was over, there was Lema all by himself at 284 — only four under — ■ while Balding went for 88 strokes and finished fdr down the list with 296. He won only $95, Lema pocketed $5,800 for his 72 hole medal victory and collected another $3,000 for finishing second in the pro-amateur division with Col. John Durkin, a Catholic priest with the Air Force in Japan. Most of the rest of the field would rather not talk about Pebble Beach. In addition to the woes suffered by Balding and Harrison, Bob Rosburg, one of the world’s best putters, took six putts on one hole. On the other hand, the wind blew so hard that Al Geiberger had a threeinch putt blow into the hole 4or him. Gay Brewer fired a 73— equalling the lowest score at Pebble Beach to tie with the veteran Bob Wininger with four round totals of 287. Each won $3,100. Then came Geiberger and Tommy Aaron at even par 288, worth $2,150 apiece, followed by four pros at 289 and $1,650 each in prize money—George Knudson, Gardner Dickinson, Bruce Devlin of Australia and Dave Marr. Professional Mike Fetchick of Glen, N.Y., and amateur Charlie . Seaver of Fresno, Calif., won the pro-amateur division with 258. Fetchick collected $4,000.

s ' Gomer Jones Is ■ New Grid Coach At Oklahoma NORMAN, Okla. (UPD—Gomer Jones, the man Bud Wilkinson wanted to succeed him, embarked today on his new career as head foot bill coach at Oklahoma. Jones was named Sunday night by the school’s board of regents, acting on a recommendation of the Oklahoma Athletic Colincil. Wilkinson resigned as coach on Jan. 11 and stepped out as athletic director Saturday. No successor was named to the athletic director post, but Jones, who already is associate athletic director, is expected to get the job. The athletic council will decide that matter later. Jones, the 49-year-old line coach from Cleveland who built the mighty interior lines for Wilkinson during the past 17 years, immediately launched a personal recruiting program. He admitted the Sooners were “a little bit behind” in recruiting because of the eight-day delay in naming a successor to Wilkinson. But he predicted Oklahoma would field a good football team next fall. The Sooners were 8-2 in Wilkinson’s final campaign and finished second to Nebraska in the Big Eight. Jones, who is to work out contract terms with the athletic council, said he planned no immediate changes and indicated he would keep most of his staff. He said he would try to beef up his coaching staff, which he said was undermanned. Wilkinson officially tendered his resignation as athletic director Sunday during the regents’ 7-hour meeting. The regents accepted the resignation “with sincere regret.” For Jones, it was a happy ending to what must have been a frustrating week. Wilkinson gave strong endorsement to his old friend and asked the regents, to name Jones as both coach and athletic * director. But, the regents looked around for other prospects. Finally, Wilkinson severed all athletic ties with the school to which he had brought football glory for "nearly two decades. He blended his resignation as athletic director with a charge that “political maneuvering” on the part of 'some regents had delayed the selection of a new coach. Wilkinson is considering running for the U.S. Senate. ff vou nave something to sell or trade — use the Democrat Want ads — they get BIG results •

West Rallies ToTakeAFL All-Star Tilt United Press International SAN DIEGO, Calif. (UPD — Cotton Davidson, who was selected to play Sunday only by the flip of a coin, came off the bench to rally the West to a 27-24 win over the East in the third annual American Football League All-Star Game. Davidson hit Oakland teammate Art Powell -with a 25-yard scoring pass with only 43 seconds left to bring back the West from a 24-3 halftime deficit. Powell dived for the ball near the back end zone line and tumbled to earth. West Coach Sid Gillman wanted an Okaland quarterback to spell his own Tobin Rote since the Raiders finished second in the division. He flipped a coin and Davidson won over Tom Flores. The 29-year-old, seven year veteran said of his pass to Powell, “we used the play often this season and we knew each other well.” Tries Similar Play He said a similar play was tried a few minutes earlier when the East held the West on the one-yard line. “Charlie was open at the sideline but I lobbed the ball instead of firing it,” said Davidson. Davidson entered the game with 12:32 left to play and the West behind 24-17. His first pass was intercepted, but he settled down to lead the West to the touchdown, a field goal and almost to another score.

Buffalo safety man Willie West, who stands only 5-feet-10, was the unfortunate victim of the play. He just was not tall enough to outleap the 6-foot-3 Powell. East Coach Mike Holovak and Gillman both said West had an excellent game otherwise. Defensive statistics credited West with intercepting one pass, defending five others and making two unassisted tackles, the best performance by an East defensive man. Lincoln Named MVP West halfback Keith Lincoln was named the game’s most valuable player and his 64-yard scoring run at- the start of the third quarter was singled out by both coaches as giving the West the impetus to take command in the game. The run tied an All-Star record set by Curtis McClinton of the Kansas City Chiefs in last year’s game. Lincoln’s total yardage for the day was 121 yards in 14 carries. Boston Patriots’ quarterback Babe Parilli led the East to what appeared to be an insurmountable lead. His short passes mixed with bursts through the line by Cookie Gilchrist of Buffalo and Larry Garron of the Patriots set up the first score. Parilli threw to Garron and Bill Mathis for the other touchdowns. West middle linebacker Archie Matsos of Oakland, who intercepted one pass and was in on numerous tackles, was named the most valuable defensive player in the game. 68.
