Gary Bradds Os Ohio State Is Player Os Year NEW YORK (VPB — Gary Bradds of Ohio State, a strong, silent type who donned a new look this season, today was named the 1961! college basketball player of the year in a nationwide poll by United Press International. Bradds didn’t add many words to his vocabulary, but he matured tremendously from the skinny, awkward kid who was sent out to replace the fabled Jerry Lucas to a strong team leader and an outstanding competitor. The 6foot-8 center currently sports a 30.5 scoring average. As a result, the Buckeyes lead the Big Ten Conference race today and Bradds has returned the “player of the year” award to Ohio State for the third time in four years. Lucas won the award in 1961 and 1962 and Art Heyman of Duke took it last year. Bradds was a runaway winner in the voting conducted among 301 sportswriters, editors and broadcasters, but due to another excellent crop of collegiate talent he did not receive a majority of the votes cast. Bradds was chosen by 104 of the nationwide selectors. Walt Hazzard, who has led UCLA to an unbeaten record, was a distant second in the balloting with 38 votes and Cotton Nash of Kentucky was a close third with 34. Other players receiving general support were Bill Bradley of Princeton with 24 votes, Mel Counts of Oregon State with 17 and Jeff Mullins of Duke with 14. “I consider it quite an honor to be selected player of the year,” Bradds said when informed of the selection. “Especially since it’s my last year and it always will be a fond memory I can carry with me. I just hope I am deserving of such an honor, and I hope I can live up to it in the future.” Bradds said he would play pro basketball only if the offer was good. . “It all depends on what kind of setup I could get,” he explained. “If it’s not worth my while, it’s not worth getting into. It all depends upon the offer.” Bradds, who comes from Jamestown. Ohio, once expressed his intent to go to Kentucky and play for Adolph Rupp. He is married, a physi-cal-ed major, and eventually hopes to teach. AU THE FISH You Can Eat. Served with Hush Puppies.

Chicago Men After Franchise In AFL CHICAGO (UPI) — A syndicate of Chicago businessmen expects to have a franchise in the American Football League possibly by 1965 and certainly by 1966, spokesman Bob Nussbaum said today. Nussbaum, who has operated the minor league Chicago Panthers recently, said Bill Veck, former majority owner of the Chicago White Sox, had been invited to join the group and is “definitely interested.” The group will, make formal application for the franchise at a meeting of the AFL expansion committee late this month or in April, Nussbaum said. Nussbaum said the AFL’s five year contract for $36 million with the National Broadcasting Co. for TV of its games sparked the group’s decision to apply for a franchise. “We assume NBC will be glad to have a Chicago market and pay close to what the other teams are getting,” he said. The NBC contract was expected to pay each member about SBOO,OOO per year and Nussbaum said his group had a reserve fund of $1 million and would be able to post, escrow money at any time. The only obstacle at present, he said, was a place to play, and he said he would fly to Florida next week to confer with Arthur C. Allyn, Jr., head of the Chicago White Sox, about leasing Comiskey Park. Indiana Central “- Tourney Winner INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—lndiana Central’s Greyhounds set their, sights on the NAIA national championship today after winning the District 21 tourney Wednesday night with a 91-76 triumph over Manchester.

The Greyhounds went ahead at 55-53 -> and stayed there, increasing their margin to the end. Clark Crafton led the Greyhound attack with 30 points. The national tourney begins at Kansas City next Monday, and Central is in it for the third time.

Earlier this year, the Huskies took a 43-41 decision at Storrs. The Rams knotted the conference race last Saturday, edging Connecticut, 54-53, and necessitating the sudden-death playoff. Toby Kimball, rebounder turned shooter, exploded for 32 points to send the Uconns to Philadelphia to face Middle Atlantic champ. Temple, next week.

Scooter McLean Os Detroit Lions Dies DETROIT (UPI) — “Everyone will miss him greatly.” That was the simple tribute of Detroit Lions* owner William Clay Ford to Ray (Scooter) McLean, who died Wednesday in Ann Arbor of cancer at the age of 48. McLean, the popular pony back of the Chicago Bears’ “Monsters of the Midway" in the 1940’5, entered University Hospital Oct. 28 for treatment of what was believed to be a ' skiing injury to his shoulder. However, tests showed he had cancer and his health deteriorated rapidly. A former coach of the Green Bay Packers, McLean was one of the most popular men in the National Football League. He served as backfield coach for the Lions since 1959. He was brought to Detroit by head Coach George Wilson, an old teammate from the Bears. Services for McLean will be held Friday at 11 am. at the First Methodist Church in Birmingham, Mich., with burial at Oakland Hills Memorial Gardens. MCNAMARA (Continued from Page One) Maj. Gen. Nguyen Khanh • replaced Maj. Gen. Duong Van Minh as top man. The secretary said he wants to see what can be done to improve Vietnamese resistance to the Communist guerrillas. His trip, he said, is an "affirmation” of continued American intent to support South Viet Nam. He refused to discuss the possibility of carrying the war into North Viet Nam or neutralization of Viet Nam. McNamara repeated his previously announced plans for withdrawing U.S. troops from South Viet Nam as rapidly as the Vietnamese are able to do the jobs that American • tage training them to do. The defense secretary planned to spend Friday at Pacific Command Headquarters in Hawaii and arrive in Saigon the next day' ' """ ft President Johnson and other officials have largely quieted speculation of recent days that measures might be put into motion to expand the guerrilla war into Commupist North Viet Nam. The speculation apparently had been stimulated earlier by American sources both in Washington and in Saigon in an effort at psychological warfare. There were reported to be divided opinions within the government on the possibilities of South Vietnamese counter-guer-rilla action in the North and of blockading Red supply lines by sea and air. There were varying assessments, too, of what Red China’s reaction might be. Top officials have emphasized, however, that present strategy calls for whipping the Communists in, their longtime stronghold in the Mekong Delta south of Saigon.

Pensacola's PGA Tourney Underway PENSACOLA, Fla. (UPI) — “It’s never too late to begin.” Arnold Palmer tees off in the opening round today of the $30,000 Pensacola PGA tournament determined to win the $4,000 first money for the second year in a row. It has been six years since the two- time money winner here has waited so long for a tour victory. “I’ve got to get cracking,” Palmer said. “I’m hoping I can get back on my game,” he said. “It’s time I quit hitting the ball bad and concentrated on winning.” *nie muscular Pennsylvanian shot 273—15 strokes under par —last year to take the title by two strokes over the 6,400-yard Pensacola Country Club Course. Palmer is joined by former champions Don Fairfield, Doug Ford, and Doug Sanders. Gary Player, runnerup last year, shot a practice round 68 on the pine-lined course to be rated a dark-horse. Jacky Cupit and Mason Rudolph, winners of the last two PGA 'tourneys, represent threats to Palmer’s repeating as champion. Cupit won the Tucson Open and Rudolph scored a one-stroke victory in the New Orleans Open Monday. Hotshots Entered In Shoot At Culver The Hotshots, Decatur Catholic high school junior rifle club is one of 15 teams, with 180 young marksmen, entered in the Indiana state junior rifle championships at Culver Military Academy Friday and Saturday. - The championships are sponsored by the National Rifle Association, and Culver provides only the facilities and safety officers. Chairman of the event is O. K. Horner, South Bend. MEASURE (Continued from Page One) needed by the 10 million persons living within a 100-mile rad us, Douglas said. “Nowhere in the United States is such a superb recreational area so severely threatened by industrial and commercial encroachment,” Udall said. “Since this area was originally proposed, three-fifths of the superb dunes have been destroyed while men turned their backs or arguedtwer values.”" But Sen. Vance Hartke, DInd., said boundaries in the bill were merely guidelines. He asked the subcommittee to draw borders which would recognize property rights as well as personal rights and permit Tull development of the port, “the industries it will attract, along with satellite industries to the giant steel mill being developed in the same Roush Would Cut It Rep. J. Edward Roush, DInd., recommended the park be cut to about 10,000 acres with nine miles of shoreline, as proposed in his House bill. His measure would exclude land he said was needed for port expansion or planned for new steel mills. Douglas conceded the larger park presented pressing problems to the community of Beverly Shores, where about 56 per cent of unimproved property would be taken off the tax base. But he said the federal government could solve these difficulties by such moves as contributing to the support of the town’s expenses or, in the early stages, sharing income from the park with the community. Committee staff members said more than 50 witnesses, most from Indiana and Illinois, have asked to be heard. It was hoped they would be willing to submit written statements, peti—tions, and resolutions for the record, and confine their oral testimony to the briefest of remarks. Otherwise, it was said, a Saturday session is probably and another on Monday likely.
