Adolph Rupp Gains 700th Win On Monday By JOE GEBOEN UPI Sparta Writer Kentucky’s Adolph Rupp today is the proud possessor of a full-fledged membership card in Local 700 of the College Coaches’ Union, and Hank Iba of Oklahoma State remains only three steps away from gaining a similar honor. Rupp , reached a personal milestone of 700 victories in his 34-year career Monday night as his third-ranked Wildcats took Georgia, 103-83 behind the torrid shooting of Cotton Nash and Ted Deeken. Meanwhile, Iba’s 12th-ranked Cowboys dropped into a firstplace tie in the Big Eight Conference by losing to Colorado, 65-59. Iba still stands only three victories short of the charmed 700 circle with 697 wins in 35 years of college coaching. In other activity, shock waves were recorded in the Big Ten where Ohio State edged conference leader Michigan, the nation’s second-ranked team in the latest United’ Press International ratings, 86-85, and runnerup Illinois was upset by Indiana, 104-96. To further dumbfound the experts, small college power Washington of St. Louis stunned 17th-ranked Drake, a Missouri Valley Conference contender, 75-68. Raises Season’s Record Kentucky overran Georgia, one of the surprise teams of the Southeastern Conference, in the first half by connecting on 65 per cent of its shots for a 54-33 lead at intermission. Nash scored 33 points for the Wildcats and Deeken contributed 29 as Kentucky upped its season’s mark to 16-2. The Cowboys, who boasted a 4-0 conference mark before the Colorado game, appeared headed for their first Big Eight title since they joined the leagues in 1957. But the Buffaloes, led by guards Bob Joyce and George Parson, took the lead with Ift minutes gone 'in the game and never trailed therea^wKm' "" All-America Gary Bradds Ohio State’s amazing thin man, scored 42 points to lead the defending champion Buckeyes to its victory over Michigan, and throw the Big Ten race into turmoil. The Wolverines, now 15-2, were undefeated in conference play entering the game, and seemed a cinch for the conference title. - Cazzie Russell and Bill Buntin led Michigan scorers with 30 and 26 points, respectively. First Conference Win The Illini also were undefeated in Big Ten play before they ran into Indiana, which had lost eight consecutive games. The Van Arsdale twins, Tom and Dick, combined for a total of 52 points as the lastplace Hoosiers scored their first conference win df the season. Washington of St. Louis ran up a 10-point lead over surprised Drake midway through the second half, then utilized a ball-control game to tame the Bulldogs. Ron Jackson led the Bears with 18 points, ■ while McCoy McLemore paced Drake with 20.

Orange Bowl Ends Big Eight Tieup MIAMI (UPI) The Orange Bowl Committee, which in the days of Oklahoma superiority had only half a problem in planning for New Year’s Day, will be bidding for both its teams in the open market this fall, its Big Eight tieup ended. Committee President B. Boyd Benjamin announced Monday the vote to end the 11-year series of contracts. He said the committee, with more money to offer now and the first night game among the major bowls, felt it could reach new heights by leaving the possibilities wide open. He said the decision was “a difficult one” because of the good relations with the Big Eight, which puts its champion in the Miami Bowl game from 1954 through this year. Five times" >it was Oklahoma, and the Sobners lost but Ask Trout Catchers To Report To Hurst Any fisherman who caught trout in the New Corydon pit last summer, and wants to see it stocked this spring, should inform area conservationist Jack Hurst, Box 103, Geneva, 46740, immediately. The pit is stocked on recommendation of the area biologist, David hfp.Ginty, if the fish are being caught. Last year, McGinty tagged the fish was a small metal gill plate. These plates, if found, should have been returned at once. However, less than a dozen have been turned in so far, Hurst reports. If more are not turned in, McGinty will have to recommencl that the state not stock the pond, since returns are so low in comparison with the cost of the program. Any fisherman who caught any trout, even if he lost or didn’t see the gill marker, should report that fact to Hurst immediately, as he has only ten days to get his report into the area biologist. 5,071 Teams Compete In Women's Tourney COLUMBUS, Ohio (UPI)— A total 0f5,071 teams will compete in the Women’s International Bowling Cbngrejs tournament to be held in Minneapolis, April 9 - May 24.

Indiana Upsets Illinois, Ohio Beats Michigan CHICAGO (UPI) — The Big Ten basketball race hit the halfway mark today without an unbeaten team or a non-winner. Not looking quite so invincible today were Michigan and Illinois, the pace-setters which suffered their first conference loss of the season Monday night. Also vanished was the woebegone expression on Indiana’s face after the Hoosiers broke an eight-game losing streak and registered their first league success by upsetting Illinois, 104-96. Ohio State, which lost an 18point decision to Michigan two weeks ago, let the league-lead-ing Wolverines have it Monday night, 86-85. Another underdog also had its day when Purdue defeated Michigan State, 101-98, in the only other game on Monday night’s Big Ten schedule. Michigan, now 6-1, and Illinois, 3-1, will meet in a matinee match on the Illini floor Saturday in the Big Ten’s closest approach to a showdown this season. Ohio State, now 4-2 and only one game behind the Illini, must be reckoned with in tfye second half of the title chase. The Buckeyes are the next test for the heartened Hoosiers when they visit Bloomington, Ind., Saturday night. Gary Bradds scored 42 points for the Buckeyes against Mich-, igan, the third consecutive 40plus performance for the league’s top marksman who upped his average to 37 points per game. The Wolverines again were led by sophomore Cazzie Russell, who canned 30 points, and Bill Buntin who got 26. But over-all, it was Ohio State’s 51 per cent shooting percentage compared to Michigan’s 45, that spelled the difference. The Hoosiers got 20-point plqs efforts from three ’starters, Tom Van Arsdale finished with 27 points, his brother Dick had 25 and John McGlockin 27. The Hoosiers took the lead early in the second half and never allowed Illinois to come closer than three points. Dave Schellhase, Purdue’s sharps hooting sophomore, pitched in 38 points and teammate Dave Purkhiser twice came to the rescue when Michigan State rallies narrowed the Boilermaker margin. Field goals by Mel Garland and Purkhiser gave the Boilermakers a permanent lead at 92- , 88. They were still protecting a slim 99-98 edge in the last eight seconds when Purkhiser came through with two free throws. It was Purdue’s second consecutive conference win, giving the Boilermakers a 3-3 league record and sixth place in the standings. Purkhiser drilled four free throws in the final 38 seconds to assure Purdue’s victory. Garland canned 23 points while Pete Gent and Marcus Sanders hit 26 and 25, respectively, for the Spartans. Michigan State had an 80-74 lead about midway through the second ha If when Purdue caught fire, tied the score at 82 and went ahead on ,the shooting of Garland and the rebounding of Jones. Indiana, breaking the longest losing streak in Branch McCracken’s coaching history, was not to be denied and took command early in the second half. In the end, though, free throw shooting won for the Hoosiers. They hit 19 in a row in the second half and 34 of 44 for the entire game. Illinois was forced to shoot mostly from outside against Indiana’s tight zone defense, with Tai Brody getting 21 points and Jim Vopicka 12. But Skip Thoren, Illinois’ lanky center, pumped in 26 to lead his club. The victory tied Indiana with idle Wisconsin for last place -in the Big Ten with 1-4 records. 'NotreD a m-e, • meanwhile,spanked Butler at Indianapolis, 72-64, with Ron Reed tossing in 25 points and Walt Sahm 20. The Irish were in front most of the way but held only a slim, 32-31 lead at the half. Dave Sanders topped Butler with 18 points and Jeff Blue added 15. Big Ten Standings , WL Pct Pts.

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA
United States Scores First Olympic Win INNSBRUCK, Austria -(UM) —Terry McDermott, a 23-year- * old barber from Essexville, Mich., ended the United States* long search for a Gold Medal in the Winter Olympic Games today when he smashed the Olympic record to win the men’s 500-meter speedskating in 40.1 seconds in a stunning upset. McDermott’s time, which shocked a capacity crowd at the Olympic Ice Stadium, broke the Olympic mark of 40.2 SCConds set by Russia’s Evgeny Grishin in 1956 and tied by Grishin in 1960. Grishin, who was a heavy favorite to win the Gold Medal for the third straight time, tied for second place with a Norwegian in 40.6 seconds. McDermott’s triumph touched off an explosion of joy in the U.S. Olympic camp, which had been without a victory through the first six days of the Olympics. The only previous U-S. medals won by the Americans were one Silver and one Bronze both by Jean Saubert of Ogden, Utah, in women’s skiing. U.S. Had Fears After Miss Saubert’s second place in the women’s giant slalom Monday, the experts were forecasting that the U.S. team would go without a Gold Medal for the rest of the games. That never has happened to the Yanks, their all-time low being in 1936 when the U.S. team won only one Gold Medal and three Bronze. ' McDermott ended American fears of a shutout with his slashing, driving race around the Olympic ice oval. When he zoomed across the finish he was mobbed by U.S. coaches and athletes, who smothered him in bear hugs. Even the Russians stopped to watch. Grishin, who won the 1,500 meters in the 1956 games and thus was shooting today for his fifth Olympic Gold Medal, skidded on the first turn after covering the first 100 meters faster than any other skater. The time he lost gave McDermott his big chafide. The 5-foot, 9-inch American came booming out from the starting line and slashed down the first 100 meters in 10’seconds flat. Hie time-conscious , crowd went to its feet, roaring, as the barber came whizzing down the home stretch, his arms swinging and his legs driving like steel pistons. The noise died to silence at the finish line and then a huge ■ shout burst from the Austrian crowd as it realized McDermott had won. Meanwhile, Vladimir Melanin gave runaway leader Russia its seventh Gold Medal of the Winter Olympic Games by winning the military-style biathlon ski event, and Germany swept both men and women’s singles tobogganing. Scott Ethan Allen, 14, of Smoke Rise, N.J., remained in strong contention in men’s figure skating by holding onto fourth place after three figures. Holds Lead Manfred Schnelldorfer of Germany continued to lead the figure skating although his lead over Karol Divin of Czechoslovakia was narrowed in the third figure. European champion Alain Calmat of France was third. Melanin took the biathlon on the basis of unofficial results by covering the 20-kilometer (about 12ft miles) ski course in an Olympic record one hour, 20 minutes, 26.8 seconds. He scored a perfect 10 hits in shooting. The biathlon consists in a cross-country ski race during which each athlete stops to shoot at four rifle ranges, losing two minutes in time for each miss. Melanin’s time eclipsed the Olympic mark of 1:3321.6 set by Sweden’s Kias Nestander in 1960, when the event was held for the first time. Olav Jordet of Sweden was second in 1:25:38.8. Alexander Privalov of Russia was third in 1:25:45.5, and his Bronze Medal for third place was the 17th medal for the Soviet Union, far more than any other nation. Thomas Koehler won the men’s tobogganing and Ortrun Enderlein tile women’s for Germany’s first Gold Medals of the games. Germany scored a 1-2-3 sweep in the men’s singles and missed a similar sweep onlye> when Helene Thurner of Austria took third place in the women’s event.

(UPD—Authorities planned further questioning today of 38 crewmen seized with tour of Fidel Castro’s fishing boats for violating U.S. waters, but it may be up to the state erf Florida to set their punishment The Cubans were questioned Monday night after they arrived under escort by four Coast Guard vessels and a Navy submarine, then allowed to spend the night aboard their -ships, tied up under guard at the Coast Guard docks. U.S. officials consulted about what to do with the Cubans. A State Department group, after completing its' investigation, probably would turn the matter over to the state of Florida. State Atty. Gen. James Kynes ruled Monday that the Department of Conservation has authority to punish the Cubans for violating state laws prohibiting foreign vessels from fishing without a license. Ed Little of the state Conservation Department was among the officials who questioned the Cubans Monday night but was not available for comment following the session. Cuba Monday night accused the United States at piracy in seizing the boats. Foreign Minister Raul Roa summoned the Swiss chief of mission in charge of American affairs to hand him the note denouncing the arrest as "kidnaping.” •« Coast Guard Cmdr. C. W. Wahl, who led a boarding party aboard the Cuban vessels near the Dry Tortugas about 70 miles west of here Sunday night, told a news conference Monday night that the captain of one of the Cuban vessels said he knew he was in U.S. waters, "but I just came to fish.”

Centerfielder Landis signed his 1964 contract along with Ron Hansen today, and suddenly someone remembered that he was the sole Sox survivor of ‘ *59. ’ Landis, who hit .225 last year ' in 133 games, will be starting ’ his season with the t White Sox. A club spokesman said Landis took a .pay cut, but j it was a slight one. Hansen came to the White * Sox last season in the Luis Aparicio deal with Baltimore. ■« He hit .226 but drove in 15 winr ning runs and had 67 RBI. t The Chicago Cubs announced the signings of two veteran pitchers — Larry Jackson and L Bob Buhl. . Jackson, who came to the Ctibs in a trade with St Louis ’ before the start of last season, had a 14-18 record in 1963. He j also had a very impressive . 2.55 earned run average. Buhl was 11-14 last season . and had an ERA of 3.39. Four . of his losses came when the . Cubs were shutout victims. The San Francisco Giants . also signed a key pitcher—Don , Larsen. The former Yankee, , who is best known for his per- ■ feet game against the Dodgers . in the 1956 World Series, had a 7-7 record and a 3.05 ERA in I « games for the Giants last i year. It was reported that he re- » ceived a slight raise over the i $20,000 he earned in 1963. > And in Pittsburgh, the Pirates j signed Smoky Burgess, the hard-hitting catcher who will be . 37 Thursday. r Burgess, who broke into the f major leagues in 1949 with the ) Chicago Cubs, hit .280 and colr lected six home runs last sea- • son. i He played with Philadelphia s and Cincinnati before joining . the Pirates in 1959. His best > year was 1962 when he hit .328 and had 13 home runs.
