Decatur Wrestlers Whip Central Catholic, 39 - 9 At Decatur Gym Tuesday

Decatur high school’s talented wrestling team, in their final evening appearance at home, rang up their ninth win with a 39-9 thumping of Fort Wayne Central Catholic Tuesday evening. Another huge cfowd was in attendance as the local grapplers tested a Central Catholic team that was considerably improved sir.ce beaten, 54-0, by Decatur early in December. The big crowd roared its approval when heavyweight Steve Hazelwood capped the evening's performance by setting a new school record for the fastest pin, needing just 29 seconds to pin Fyock, C. C.’s heavyweight. Coach Gary Giessler’s crew, now sporting a nine win, two loss record, and a winning percentage of .818, takes a day off today and Thursday afternoon travels to Angola for a 5 p. m. bout and the final road test of the year. Finale Saturday Saturday afternoon. Culver Military Academy sends its strong wrestling squad to Decatur for a 2 o’clock match in the local gymnasium, which is the final match of the regular season for the local grapplers. Gary Myers, 120-pounder, had pinned an Angola foe in just 36 seconds last week, and Hazel- • Closed Circuit TV Is Planned By NFL MIAMI BEACH (UPI) — National Football League owners and directors meet today to plan new ways of cashing in on the record acceptance of professional football. Closed circuit television is expected to add to the dollar flood. The* league voted Tuesday at the opening sessions of its annual meeting to permit closed circuit showing within the 75-mile blackout area if Commissioner Pete Rozelle approves. Paid television at three spots in the Chicago area were permitted for the 1963 championship game between the Chicago Bears and the New York Giants at Wrigley Field and it added $35,043 to the pot. Income from such closed circuit television of regular games this year will be considered as “gate receipts” and be split 60-40 between the home team and visitors. “If the clubs want to experiment, this means they can,” Rozelle said. The club owners Tuesday listened to a recitation of records in attendance and income then voted to raise the player limit to 40 men per club for this year only. The / old limit was 37. However, any team that loses four men due to injuries can call back only one man, for a total of 37. The man called back must come from the original roster of 60 permitted at the training camp before the cut. College Basketball Indiana Central 99, St. Procopius 72. Manchester 92. Earlham 70.

wood said before the match he was going to attempt to break that record, and he clipped a total of seven seconds off the time. He grabbed his opponent after the first whistle, tost him and then grabbed him again, knocking him to the mat, and referee Dave Steinman signaled the pin with 1:31 remaining in the bout. Myers also brought the crowd to its feet with an easy — but thrilling—scrap with Escobeda of Central Catholic. One of the Fort Wayne team’s better wrestlers, Escobeda was swarmed on by I Brosnan And White Sox In Contract Spat By SANDY PADWE UPI Sports Writer Jim Brosnan, being a man of principle as well as a baseball player and author, has managed to involve himself in a squabble with his current employers. The reason, as before, is not money. It’s censorship. It seems that the Chicago White Sox, who pay Brosnan for his relief pitching, are opposed to his literary efforts during the baseball season. They told him so with a clause in his 1964 contract. Brosnan, who had the same trouble with the Cincinnati Reds, is threatening to retire. “Whether I play or not will depend on what is done about that cl&use,” Brosnan said. “I couldn’t publish at all during the season last year and this time J’m going to argue.” Ed Short, the White Sox’ general manager, defended the team’s position. “We didn’t put this policy in because of Brosnan,” he said. “We had it long before he joined the club. Both Early Wynn and Nellie Fox were newspaper columnists and they had to quit. “Then the players have the right to privacy in the dugout and. locker room, and we want them to have it. Baseball is a full-time occupation physically and in concentration. Playefs have enough to do without worrying about writing some thing.” , ’ Brosnan wasn’t the only dissatisfied party in baseball Tuesday. Curt Simmons of the St. Louis Cardinals was offered a “sizeable pay boost” but the 35year old lefthander apparently feels he’s worth more. Simmons, who had a 15-9 record last season, said “the next move is up the Cardinals.” Other clubs, however, Were luckier with their contract talks. The Pittsburgh Pirates signed starter Don Cardwell and rookies Bob Priddy and Jim Walker, all pitchers. Walt Hriniak, a rookie second basemaq, signed with Milwaukee: and Billy Moran, the American League’s All-Star second baseman in 1962, signed with the Los Angeles Angels along with infielders Tom Satriano and rookie Bobby Knoop. The New York Mets signed three players, including first baseman Billy Haas, who was obtained from the Los Angeles Dodgers in the special National League draft to aid the Mets and Houston Colts. The Mets also signed rookies Wilber Huckle, an infielder, and Jerry Dean Hinsley, a pitcher.

Myers, who garnered seven first period points with a takedown and two near-pins. In the second period, Myers got six more points for a 16-0 lead and then pinned his opponent with one minute and 19 seconds left. Two of Best The performances by Myers and Hazelwood were two of the finest seen in the Decatur gymnasium since the sport was introduced three years ago. The win for Myers made his record 10-2-1 and Hazelwood owns an 8-4 season mark. Decatur’s 165-pounder, Deane Lehman, wasn’t far off Myers’ former record, as he pinned Dowden in just 43 seconds of the initial period for his ninth win against three defeats and a tie. Dave Adams, 127-pounder, upfred his season mark to 11-1-1, the best on the team, with a 4-0 decision over LaFontaine. Adams got two points for a takedown and the other two for a reversal. Sam Baumann upped his season record to 10-1-1 with another first period pin. Baumann got two points for a takedown and then pinned Burns with 1:14 elapsed in the first period. Al Kalver, one of four seniors on the team, won his 11th against just two losses when he decisioned Christie of the visitors by a 7-0 score in the 120 division. Tom Eyanson, one of the most improved wrestlers on the club, also registered a first period pin as he ended the hopes of Clayton in the 95 pound class in just a minute and 37 seconds. --It- was Eyanson’s eighth win. Arthur Ybarra and Dennis Smitley were the other Decatur winners. Smitley, replaced the injured Darryl Grote in the 180 class, pinned Talarico of C. C. with a minute and five seconds gone in the second period, while Ybarra recorded a 9-0 shutout of Hayes in the 103 division. Central Catholic got their nine points from three winners. Snyder won a 4-3 decision over Lennie Corral in the 133 class, and Delaney, brother of the C. C. coach, won a 14-6 decision over Neil Butcher in the 138 weight. These two victories had cut Decatur’s lead to 19-6, but Baumann won and then Debates won an 8-4 decision over Decatur’s Tim Magley in the’ 154 class, making the Decatur lead a 24-9 margin. Lehman, Smitley and Tazelwood then ended matters with three quick pins. Reserves Win The Decatur reserves registered a 21-3 win over the C. C. reserves. Kip Lutes needed just a minute and two seconds to pin his opponent, while Bill Blythe needed just a minute and 43 seconds to pin his foe. Bob Hawkins used just a minute and J 9 seconds to pin his man, while Dave Green won a 7-0 decision and Dal Whittenfeld won an 8-4 decision.

Mo. (UPD— City - hopping Charles O. Finley, with two days left to find a home for his Kansas City Athletics, planned to return to home base today for another meeting with the landlords of Municipal Stadium. Finley told Carleton Sharpe, city manager, that he wanted to discuss alternate proposals the city made last week for a new four-year stadium lease. “We are interested - in hearing what Mr. Finley has to say,” said Sharpe, declining further comment. Finley was scheduled to meet with Mayor Ilus W. Davis, Sharpe and members of the city council’s baseball committee at 5 p.m. EST. Finley has until Saturday to sign a new stadium lease with Kansas City. If he does not, the American League has said it will take action to expel him from baseball and take away his team. The league issued its lease directive to Finley on Jan. 16, the same day it turned down his request to move the Athletics to Louisville, Ky. The votei on both decisions was 9-1. The only dissenting vote was Finley’s. Hockey Results International League /, ' Muskegon 3, Windsor 1.

Ninth Winter Olympic Games Opened Today INNSBRUCK, Ausfria (UPD — President Adolf Schaerf of Austria officially declared open the ninth Winter Olympic Games today before a crowd of 50,000 in Olympic Stadium. Blue skies formed a background for the snow-capped Alpine peaks as Schaerf’s declaration followed a parade into the stadium by 400 colorfullydressed athletes and officials of 35 nations competing in the games. But the crowd, wich included the Shah and Empress of Iran, already was in a gay holiday mood, heightened by a forecast from the weatherman that snow, a painfully scarce item during the unusually mild winter here, may arrive in quantity later today. Shortly after the official opening ceremonies, the United States and Russia were scheduled to clash in a hockey game — the first official competition of the 12-day carnival and the first of many Olympic meetings, winer and summer, be.the two nations this year. Greece Leads Parade Greece, by tradition, because it is the nation in which the Olympic games were founded, led the parade of athletes into the stadium. While most of the athletes in the parade were bundled up against the finger-numbing cold, many of the U. S. men and women carried their white coats in their arms. The Americans, who comprised the largest delegation of athletes, were wMrmly cheered by the crowd. There were also loud cheers for the Aga Khan, leading the four-man Iranian team, and for India’s lone competitor, who was preceded by a sign carrier and flag carrier. Before the official proclamation of the opening of the games, the crowd and the competitors .observed a moment of silence in memory of the two athletes who were killed in training accidents here last week. Immediately after the opening ceremonies, ice hockey teams from Russia and the United States clash in the first championship competition of the games. The Yanks opened defense of their ice hockey championship Tuesday by routing Romania, 7-2, in a preliminary game. Canada was pitted against Switzerland and Germany meets Czechoslovakia in today’s other hockey contests. Pairs Skating Slated The only giber event on today’s program besides ice hockey is the pairs skating tonight with the German world’s champions, Hansjuergen Baeumler and Marika Kilius, favorites for the Gold Medal over the Russian pair of Oleg Protopopov and Ludmilla Beloussova. The American entries are Ronald Joseph of Denver, Colo., and ’Vivian Joseph of Highland Park, 111., and Ronald and Cynthia Kaufman of Seattle, Wash. Russia, overall medal winner at Squaw Valley* Calif, in 1960, modestly expects to perform the feat again at Innsbruck. ) The United States has less ambitious goals but among them is the determination to win its first Gold Medal ever for a •men’s ski event. Only one thing marred the splendid scene as the colorfullyattired assemblage gathered in this mountain-rimmed valley—the mild, unseasonable weather which is threatening the ski courses laid out at nearby Patscherkofel Mountain and at Lizum and Seefeld. Course Slightly Slushy The men’s downhill speed run' at Patscherkofel was a bit slushy Tuesday and the crosscountry ski tracks at Seefeld were alarmingly thin. The sla-
