Hill Emcees Grid Affair
The Chicago Bears, despite their struggles of this season, are still the World Champions (although the AFL doesn’t agree). Former Bear star BUI Wightkin is to be the featured speaker at the Booster Club’s ninth annual football banquet next Wednesday. So what would be more appropriate than to have a Chicago Bear fan to emcee the gridiron affair? That was the way Booster club president Dick Reidenbach explained it this morning in announcing that Ted Hill, of the Leland Smith Insurance Agency, will serve as the toastmaster for the evening’s activities. A former Decatur high school athlete, Hill remains an active fan of the Chicagoans despite' their 2-7 record of this season. On Regional Champs The president of Leland Smith Insurance Agency in Decatur, Hill was a member of the 1943 Decatur high school basketball team that swept regional honors — the last team from the school to perform this feat. He was also a member of the school’s track squad. Hill has a “connection” with the 1964 DHS football team that set a new school record by racking up regular season victories. He is an uncle of the team’s star quarterback, Dave Anspaugh. Hill, his wife Clarice (a sister to Dave’s father Lawrence), son Tyler, 12, and daughter Betsy, 9, reside at 213 Oakridge Place in this city. Banquet Tickets The annual banquet, which will feature Wightkin, the former Bear tackle as the main speaker, will begin at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, November 18, at the Youth and Community Center. The affair is open only to members of Basketball-Wrestling Preview Plans Made Plans for a combined basket-ball-wrestling preview program were announced today by Decatur High School athletic director Bob Worthman. The affair will be held Thursday night, November 19, in the Decatur high school gymnasium. Beginning at 7 o’clock, coach Gary Giessler will bring his wrestlers onto the mat for a demonstration of the various techniques, etc. At about 8 o’clock, new net mentor Phil Miller will preview his Yellow Jacket basketball team in an intra-squad game. There is no charge for admission, and fans wishing to get an early look at the wrestling and basketball teams are invited and urged to attend. The grapplers open their season on Tuesday, November 24, while the basketball squad begins on Friday, November 27.

CBS Rejects Plea For Indy Blackout INDIANAPOLIS (UPD-Pres-ident Al Savill of the Indianapo--lis Warriors hopes to obtain a blackout of “piggyback” telecasting of National Football League games into the Indianapolis area. Savill made the statement Thursday after the Columbia Broadcasting System rejected his objection to the plan of telecasting two NFL games each Sunday. Savill and other officials of the United Football League had objected to plans by CBS for the two games with the second starting at about 4 p.m. and ending at about 7 p.m., the same time the Warriors start their home games. Tbe piggyback telecasts began Sunday and the Warriors drew only 4,400 fans to their game with the Quebec Rifles. Savill said the rejection of the Oct. 27 protest came from Wil* liam C. MacPhail, CBS vice president In charge of sports. Savill also said Thursday that Sen. Philip A. Hart, D-Mich., chairman of the anti-trust and monopoly subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary Committee, had expressed interest in the UFL objections. He quoted Hart as saying “The damage to your league is certainly appreciated .. .any specific suggestions that you may have would certainly be helpful.”

Baseball Pays Its Final Respects To Hutch
BRADENTON, Fla. (UPD — Baseball paid its final respects today to Fred Hutchinson, one of its greats.

He was unconscious when he died, his doctor said. Hutchinson’s body wa s on view today at the Griffith-Cline Funeral Home at nearby Anna Maria Island, where Hutchinson had his home. Philly Halls Celtic Streak By United Press International Other National Basketball Association teams now know it can be done. The Boston Celtics can be beaten. However, it took an almost unbelieveable effort by the Philadelphia 76’ers to do it. The 76’ers battled back from a 25 point deficit and finally won the ball game 110-109, on a jump shot by Paul Neumann with eight seconds remaining Thursday night. The Eastern Division leading Celtics, who had won 11 straight without a loss, jumped off to a 11-0 lead and later upped it to 80-55 in the third period. Led by Olympian Lucious Jackson, who was high scorer with 27 points, and Chet Walker, the 76’ers pecked away at the lead, narrowing it to 14 after three quarters and finally tied the score with two minutes to go. Sam Jones led the Boston scoring with 24 points. In other games, Los Angeles defeated New York, 132-123, in overtime and Detroit walloped San Francisco, 121-99. Dick Barnett’s basket with seven seconds remaining in regulation time sent the LakerKnick game into an extra session. Then the Lakers ripped off 10 straight points to ice the victory. Elgin Baylor finished with 35, Jerry West added 32 and Barnett contributed 24. Willis Reed of the Knicks topped everyone with 38. Wilt Chamberlain tallied 53 points, high for the young season, but the Detroit Pistons under new player-coach Dave DeBusschere shot an amazing 55 per cent in the final half to register an easy win. Seven Detroit players scored in double figures while only two Warriors, other than Chamberlain, were able to match that feat New Billiard League Opens Play Thursday Harry Nicodemus and Jack Zehr recorded a perfect three-vic-tory evening as the new Thursday night handicap billiard league opened play at the Decatur Sports Center.

The Sheets - Ely team took two of three games from KellerVian, averaging 30.3 balls a game to 24.0.

Webb, Jim King, Bill McKechnie Sr., Bill McKechnie Jr., Bennie Scanlo, Bill Veeck, Dick Sister, Jim Turner, Reggie Otero, and George (Birdie) Tebbets. “I am very, very shocked — be was my very best friend. I don’t feel like talking about it,”, said Tebbets, manager of the Cleveland Indians and a neighbor of Hutchinson here. He expressed the typical reaction of the mourning world of baseball. Hutchinson had known about his illness since last December, when it was diagnosed by a brother, Dr. William Hutchinson of Seattle. Yet he went through with the 1964 season, resigning only on Oct. 19 after the Reds made their run at the pennant. Hutchinson’s other survivors, besides his brother, are his widow, Patricia; three sons, Rick, 20, Jack, 19, and Joe, 11; a daughter, Patty, 16; another brother, Dr. John P. Hujchinson of San Francisco, and a sister, Mrs. Mary Crosetto of Bellvue, Wash. Before joining Cincinnati in the middle of the 1959 season, Hutchinson had been manager of the Detroit Tigers, 1952-54,
