Return of ex-Pacers to be feature of

Indiana^Memphis tilt Saturday night

Remember former Pacer Roger Brown, Mel Daniels and Freddie Lewis? Well they'll return to Indianapolis Saturday night for their first apperance in Market Square Arena when the Indiana Pacers host the Memphis Sounds. Game time is 7:35 p.m. and plenty of-tickets remain. The tilt should be a good one from start to finish. The three former Pacers will be out to show local fans they still have it, and the “new” Pacers will be trying to show the veterans “where its at.” Daniels and Lewis were trad-

ed to Memphis over the sum-; mer for forward Charlie Edge and cash. Brown joined his teammates as a free agent.The three started in just about every game for the Pacers during, their seven-year exlstance and led them to three American^ Basketball Association Chara-i pionshlps before running into disfavor with Coach Bobby Leonard last season. Replacing them in the Pacer lineup are Len Elmore, the 6-9 All-American from Maryland; Wayne Pack, All-conference guard at Eastern Tennessee; Billy Kight, 6-7 forward from

Pittsburgh, and Edge, 6-6 rebounder in his second season. Saturday's exhibition will be the last at the arena until the Pacers open their regular campaign against San Antionio on October 18. They are also scheduled to play the Sounds Thursday night in Lebanon. The Pacers continued exhibition play last week, dropping two games to the Kentucky Colonels but winning from the NBA's Atlanta Hawks and Chicago Bulls. They defeated the Atlanta TORN TO PAGE 17

TIPS ON CAR CARE

Gas Bills Tell When You Need Tune-up

When his car was new, Carl checked its gas mileage every! time he gassed up. Then he quit checking. He thought it would : continue to give the same mileage, so why bother? He didn’t pay much attention to changes in the car’s per-

formance either. If anyone

had asked him, he would have said it was good as

new.

,He drove about the same distance every month, on the same roads, at the same speeds, and he bought his gas at the same service station once or twice a week. Then he noticed that he was buying more gas at a time and having to stop at other stations to avoid running out. Finally he checked the mileage on a single tank of gas. The result shocked him. The ear was using nearly twice as much gas as it did when it was new. The B.F.Goodrich service, man who put tha car back in new condition said Carl was lucky it hadn’t stopped running altogether. Carl probably saved himself a tewing bill by taking the car in for service as soon as he learned of its high gas consumption. Few motorists realize that their gas and oQ bills ate a good check on the condition of their engines.. An exccsshre Increase in- amount of gas or afl used pfrr mile driven to n definite sign that something lagrrong. In Carrs ease, the car waa Mir spark plug wires, a new

air filter, a carburetor over-' haul and a PCV valve cleaning. B.F.Goodrich service experts say few cars continue to run when this much work is needed. These are the repairs most often needed in a tuneup, how-

ever.

Other things to look for when your gas mileage drops are 1) too rich a fuel mixture, 2) transmission or ’ clutch slippage. 3) brake j drag, 4) gummed up smog equipment. 5) gas line or gas tank leakage, and 6) a stuck ■ automatic choke. If your car starts to use more oil than usual, it may be due to something as simple as a leak, or as serious as worn or scored rings. It may ntoe be due to the common mistake oAoverfllling the engine with oil. Many motorists overfill with oil because they full Uf allow enough time for the. oil to run baek into the crankcase before they cheek the dipstick after the car hae been running. In thto cAse the dipstick will show "add oil” when there to already enough oil In the engine. Too much oil can Mow out seals and esuee other serious trouble. Don’t believe a low dELghmALsslr .-onimReMMm A^a«u* engine has been off approximately ten minutes.

Plea from Frank Robinson: ‘Judge me on the field’

ABDUL-JABBAR WINS THIS ONE: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. (right) of the Milwaukee Bucks outscored Portland Trailblazer rookie Bill Walton, 28-8 in the first pro meeting between the former UCLA stars Friday night in Dayton. Overall, Abdul-Jabbar got 34 points and Walton 15 as the Bucks won, 103-96.

Remember James Stone, former Golden Gloves lightweight champion back In 1941? Well, he’s still making a name for himself as a youth worker In his hometown of San Diego, Calif. Now 55, Stone won the Indiana Gloves that year as a boxer for St. Rita’s Church, but was beaten in the nationals in Chicago. Stone Is a chaplain through the Volunteer In Probation Program In San Diego and spends much of his free time working with troubled youths in Juvenile Hall.

CLEVELAND, Frank Robinson was officially named the first black manager In baseball’s major leagues last week and at a press conference said he hoped he would not be classified by the color of his skin. “I want to be judged by my expertise on the field,” Robinsop said after the Cleveland Indians made it official that he would be the club’s 1975 field manager. “I was born black and nowthat I'm a manager, I guess I have to be a black manager,” said Robinson, the only man to be named Most Valuable Player in both the American and National Leagues. - “To say that this is a proud day for me would be an understatement,” Robinson said. “If I had one wish in the world today, that wish would be to have Jackie Robinson here to see this happen,” the new Indians manager stated. Jackie Robinson, no relation to Frank, became the first black in the majors in 1947. He died in 1972. “I don’t think I could have stood the pressure or have gone through what Jackie had to,” said Robinson, who broke a 105year baseball tradition of white TURN TO PAGE 17 Mitchell, Bynum are golf victors Jack Mitchell of Dayton, O., took the non-senior title and George Bynum of Chicago won the senior division in the Indianapolis Senior and Non-Sen-ior Golf Tournament September 28 and 29.

IJRANK ROBINSON — Wants to be judged on the field. Undefeated Northwest takes on Cathedral in prep grid action

Northwest will be fighting to remain in the ranks of the unbeatens Friday night when they face Cathedral on the Irish’s field in one of the top games around the city. Undefeated and second-rank-ing Washington will go against winless Wood (0-6), once-bea-ten Tech (5-1) will try to improve on their mark against Marshall (2-4) and two teams with identical records, Shortridge and Roncalli, both 1-5 on the season, will tangle.

Northwest, still not in the top 20 in the high school press poll (neither Associated Press or UPI), won Its sixth straight last weeklend over Sourthport, 30-14.

When the Milwaukee Bucks invaded Indianapolis’ new Market Square Arena to meet the Indiana Pacers last weekend, many were expecting them to blow the host team right out of their brand new home. Obviously they didn’t come too close to doing that as the final score indicated—118-115 In favor of the Pacers. As far as the Bucks* are concerned though,—there was some form of progress made.

Well from the viewpoints from some of toe Buck players it was a much needed scrlmage In light of the fact that their only other full workout came one day prior to the exhibition tilt. “Exhiblton or not, we should have played better than we did.” said veteran guard Lucius Allen. “I’m not making any excuses for the loss because the Pacers certainly played a good TURN TO PAGE 17
