Smith pleads mnocent - Nixon donates to Bostock church while Angels eulogize teamate

LOS ANGELES Former President Richard Nixon has sent a check to California Angels slain baseball Lyman Boetock's church to be donated to a favorite charity. An adherent to the Anaheim based Angels, and close associate of franchise owner Gene Autry, Nixon mailed the September 25 dated check for $1,000 to the Vermont Square Methodist Church, of which Bostock was a member. The check was accompanied by a short sympathy letter, signed, “sincerely...Dick Nixon. Nixon said the funds will be deposited in a “Teen Challenger" organization of the church. The 27-year-old outfielder who finished the 1977 season as the American League's second best hitter for average, was known for his work with charitable groups and youngsters. At Bostock’s request, portions of his April salary were given to charity groups. The generosity followed a disappointing Spring-one which Bostock felt he had not earned

Woodchuck CONTINUED FROM PAGE 16 to be treasured may soon develop for followers of Campbell’s athletic career at his new school. He enrolled at Indiana State University as a freshman this fall unlike thousands of graduates with scholarships waiting for little more than their signature. No bother for Campbell as he tried out for first-year Sycamore coach Dick Jameison's squad, which produced more than 100 hopefuls for the drills. It wasn’t long before he was assured of a blue and white uniform for the 1978 season. As one of more than 85 freshmen which turned out for Sycamore pre-season drills, Campbell, 6-0, 235-pounds, has already been tabbed as a "blue-chipper" in forthcoming Sycamore seasons. With ISU playing at this stage the most rugged portion of its Missouri Valley Conference schedule, (Louisville last weekend, Ball State in Muncie Saturday), it’s understandable why Campbell has a task ahead in trying to crack the first units. Making road trip rosters is a chore in itself. Carrying those impressive high school credentials to Terre Haute as one of Wood’s talented wrestlers and gridmen ever, doesn’t necessarily spell Campbell as indespensable. It does mean he may have been over looked —all the more reason his education at ISU may soon be supported with athletic aid. He was voted the outstanding wrestler during that last tenure at Wood for anyone. Campbell’s 1977 Woodchuck football statistic produced more than 800 yards in no more than 100 carries. He also led his team during the last campaign in solo tackles. A guess why Sycamore coach Jamieson might not hesitate to call on Campbell —a unanimous Wood “Hall of Famer", before long. Planning to major in economics at ISU, Campbell’s parents are Mr. and Mrs. William Lenoir, of the 2300 block of Capitol. ‘Scrapiron’ CONTINUED FROM PAGE 16 approach. The 1979 Gloves will be held in Indianapolis. Johnson’s victory was one of four triumphant bouts Riverside followers were able to cheer about Ronald Chambers defeated Pernell Bonner (Cincy). Kenneth Jackson defeated B. Burger (Franklin), and Ronald Essex was victorious over Cincy’s Percy Southerland. One of the more stunning and dissappointing bouts of the evening featured 17-year-old Archie Chambers—paired against Sonny Long of Cincinnati—a veteran amateur with more than 200 fights. According to unofficial scorecards. Chambers was leading on points through the first two rounds of the fight, but was knocked down in the late stages of the last round by Long. He was up at the referee's count of one, however, the fight was stopped and awarded to Long because Chambers didn't raise his hands high enough over his head. (Amateur rules specify boxers must raise hands above heads after any knockdown before continuing). Though forced to accept the referee's ruling. Riverside boxing officials expressed an appeal may yet be made to the proper authorities—including state sanctioning bodies responsible for officiating of amateur matches. Chambers now owns a 56-7 record.

his pay. He was eulogized at the Vermont Square church in Southwest Los Angeles September 28. Burial followed in nearby Inglewood Cemetery. There was standing room throng of more than 1,000 for the rites-another estimated 500 persons stood outside during the services. The entire Angels' squad-including manager Jim Fregosi and club officials attended. Owner Autry does not attend funerals because of his religions beliefs. Bostock’s widow, Yuovene, was flanked bu his mother, Anne, and his four brothers. His father, Lyman, Sr., a former star in the old Negro Baseball leagues, also attenedas did several major leaguers. ’ Angels officials announced days before the funeral, Bostock’s wife would be paid the rest of his Angels contract - calling for a sum of $2.7 million over five years. This was his first year of t^e contract. Leonard Smith, 31. of> Gary remains in a Crown Point (Ind.) jail without bond of first-degree murder charges. He has pleaded innocent, and is scheduled for his next court appearance October 12. He has requested a jury trial. Athough records show Smith has never been convited of a felony, an conviction under the present charges could net him a sentence between 30-60 years. Under Indiana statues he could still become eligible for an early parole, however. Meanwhile, Lake County (Ind.) prosecutors continue to try and piece together what evidence has been obtained before any trial begins. It is based from police accounts. Smith' target was apparently directed at one of two women in the car Bostock rode with an uncle at the time of the shooting. She is Barbara Smith, the assailant's estrangled wife-also injured. Bostock was critically wounded while the Angels were in Chicago on their last road trip of this season- the club’s most successful ever. Bostock and his uncle, Robert Turner, were traveling on a downtown Gary street, when Smith fired a shotgun blast through the window of the car striking Bostock in his temple. He died a few hours later in Gary’s St. Mary Medical Center. Indoor bicyclist scheduled for 1 Dec. Expo run ■ Top bicycle motorcrossracers from around the world will converge on the Convention Center December 30, for the first World Championships Indoor event. Sponsored by the National Bicycle Association and National Bicycle League, the events will be staged on a special designed 800-foot long highly competitive track - featuring elevating starts, wide jumps and high banked turns. Attending a press conference last week with Mayor William Hudnut in announcing the upcoming events were Gary Justus, President of theCentral Indiana Association and Frank Nolte, a member of the Baord of Directors of the National Bicycle League. Justus said the purpose of the sport is to give kids a safe, competitive sport to enjoy. Categories of competition will range from 6-16 years of age. There will also be open and pro divisions. “We are honored that Indianapolis has been chosen as the site of the national event,” Hudnut said. “Our efforts to beautify our City and to attract outside attention are continuing to pay off. It is appropiate these races be held here because Indianapolis, is, after all, the Crossroads of America.” usoc CONTINUED FROM PAGE 16 it will bring the Olympic Committee under the dominnance of politics.” “I’d like to stress this grant is for one time only, no strings attached, for purposes apart from what we've ever done before. The $30 million would go to help the under-privileged sports, those which don't have any money to get established and don’t have their own office or their own directors. There is no one I know of within the Olympic movement who wants the United States Olympic Committee to become an arm of the government. By taking monies every year we certainly would be, so we want this to be a one time only deal.” Kane pointed out that of the 28 Olympic sports, only 10 of them are contested in schools and colleges..."Which means in effect, the other 18 sports are orphans-unless there is some help given.”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 16 and 15-3. “We realized at the start of this season teams like Chatard Roncalli and Scecina would b e tough,” expressed Brandstetter following a midweek tourney victory. (Scecina and Chatard were to meet in a semi-final clash Thursday). “We don’t want to sound over-confident, but we’ve felt we have a close-knit group, and as the season progresses, I’m not predicting what will actually happen, but in a week or two I might be tellin’ you we can take on anyone in the state," the fourth-year Tiger mentor exclaimed. The Attucks attack presents a solid offensive-spiking, goodserving outfit--with defensive blocking at the nets another Tiger strong-point. That is all considering they do not have a player over 6-foot. The returning letterwomen include seniors Denise Beuke (pronounced Boy-kee), Vascel Norton and Karen Bettis. Should the Tigers and Trojans clash in the city finals this week, the winner could easily emerge as one of the leading contenders for the journey to the state championships, scheduled for November II at Ben .Davis. Chatard is a 1977 finalist. Third-place finishers in the state in 1975, Sectional champs in‘76, and runner-up in the Sectionals last year, the Tigers under coach Brandstetter now hold an overall four-year record of 91-25.

Let Free

BATON ROUGEYou might not be so down on Indiana University once you've examined some margin of differences from games played throughout the nation last weekend. Since the Hoosiers absorbed the worst defeat in the school’s 93-year history, a 69-17 pasting from the Nebraska Cornhuskers in Bloomington last Saturday, the following summary of a high school contest makes IU coach Lee Corso and his crimson charges’ predicament seem somewhat tolerable. The final score of this particular high school game was an unbelievable 90-0. Besides the final margin of victory, the winning team was ahead 28-0 .after only one offensive play. Ironically, the Hoosiers were behind in Saturday’s regionally televised Contest with the Cornhuskers after a few minutes into the contest, 28-0. The hQjh school game involved Southern Unlvesity Labarotory High, against a state reformatory outfit - Louisiana

Training Institute. To put it midly, Southern got off to a flying start! They kicked off to start the game, but the penal team fumbled and Southern ran back the muff 23 yards for their first score. Southern kicked off again, the losers threw a pass interception on the ensuing play from scrimmage with Southern running back the mis-pass for a 53-yard score. Southern kicked off again. After three downs, the losers punted and Southern returned the punt for 47 yardls and their third touchdown. Again Southern kicked off. But after another unsuccessful series of downs, the institute team was forced into punt formation. After returning the punt to the losers’ v five-yard line. Southern ran it in for their fourth touchdown-making the s^ore 28-0 after hxving attempted only one offensive play from scrimmage. Southern went on to hold leads of 35 to zip after the first quarter; 55-0 at the half; and 77-0 after three periods.

GM spearheads renewal of Detroit neighborhood

DETROIT General Motors Corp. plans to spearhead a $20 million urban redevelopment program near its corporate headquarters here. The giant automaker will begin with purchase of renovation of 125 home and 175 apartments units in a six-block area known as "New Center.” GM Vice Chairman Richard L. Terrell said a subsidiary of his company will supply half of the initial $2.6 million capitalization. An additional 15 financers, together with GM will ultimately provide a third of the seed financing. City, state and federal funds are expected to account for the remaining two-thirds? The price for restoring the mostly dilapidated houses, some of which have been abandoned for several years, was estimated at about $23,500 each; houses are expected to sell for about $40,000 -roughly half of what they would cost in Detroit’s suburbs. GM Chariman Thomas A. Murphy called in an “urban transformation that will rely heavily on the private business sector. It is a residential

I wonder how much meaning and impact the words of Minnesota State Representative Ray Pleasant will have on Griffith and his franchise supporters? That is that the "Twins are no longer welcome in Minnesota.” If Griffith and his Twins organization is ever forced to relocate the franchise again, for the first time I can remember. I’m in hopes his last choice would be Indianapolis. We have enough of his kind here and Minnesota now having too much fun!

The Winemaster's Job My job as winemaster at B Cribari & Sons Winery is interesting and I’m going to devote this column to briefly describing the role of the winemaster in the actual making of the wine. Almost all of us in the winemaking business honestly believe that our individual winemaking processes are unique and personal. This is particularly true when it comes to blending W'ines be cause they are the product of the winemaker’s special talents and capabilities. A good share of my day is spent in our laboratory tasting and evaluating wine. My eyes, nose, tongue and instincts all add up to help me make my decisions about our wines. Many of our wines are blends to combine the best qualities of several grapes. Achieving the proper blend is the hardest part of my job. The essence of any wine is taste, aroma and color. After we have checked the blend in the laboratory, there is the final, ultimate test which is my own individual assessment and response. Naturally, these judgments cannot be solely my personal preference. My taste has to be representative of millions of Cribari customers who buy our wine. Actually, the role of the winemaster is a dual one. I’ve got to be both a winemaker and the average Cribari customer. It’s a job I wouldn’t trade for anything. If I can help you with an answer to your wine questions, please write to me at B. Cribari & Sons, Suite 608, 500 Sansome Street, San Francisco, CA. 94111.

WASHINGTONMembers of an NCAA infractions committee defended before Congress last week the collegiate sports organization’s investigation and enforcement procedure, saying it does provide “due process” for member schools, coaches and student athletes. However, Arthur Reynolds and Charles Wright, outgoing and incoming chairmen, respectively, and three other mem bers of the infraction committee failed to convice Representative John Moss (Calif.). Moss is chairman of the House investigations sub committee which has been investigating the rules enforcement programs of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. One of the testimonies ac knowledged that the NCAA procedures preside even more protection than called for in the United States Constitution. Moss remained unconvinced, arguing that students aren’t notified by the NCAA infractions committee of charges against them but by their own schools on orders from the NCAA. Moss complained as in the past, about the NCAA procedure in which the university must declare an athlete inelgible even though it might think the penalty unfair, but would suffer further NCAA punishment if it didn’t follow the association's orders. “That defends every instinct U.S. Olympic board approves 1984 pact for L.A.

I have,” said Moss, who ordered the NCAA investigation at the request of Rep. Jim Santini, (Nev.), shortly after the basketball program at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas was placed on probation in the summer of 1977. “It is an outrageous demand on an instituion," Moss continued. I find it repugnant. I can’t accept it. In my opinion, it is a denial of due process. I believe you do it for expedi ency.” Much of the hearings was taken up with inquiries into how the infractions committee makes a decision, especially whether it relies too much on the investigations staff and not enough on witnesses. Santini said he believes the committee made its decision in the Nevada-Las, Vegas case on what he called a "psycholigical predisposition of guilt.” “The school is located in Sin City and it had a coach who was notorious.” said Santini. “There was a predisposition of guilt on the meagerest of evidence."

Big ‘0’ one of two Cincinnatians in Suinness ‘boxes’ The “Big O” is in the box scores again! The 1978 edition of Guiness Book of World Records list Indianapolis groomed Oscar-Robertson as one of only two entries of historical significance which directly relates to Cincinnatians. The Crispus Attucks High School standout of the mid-50s, who went on to star at the University of Cincinnati and the Royals pro team before ending his career with the Milwaukee Bucks in 1974, is mentioned on pages 526-528. Of note is several records held by Robertson most free throw attempts, most free throws made and most assist.
