I After domniating a fast and big tip. With the Clovers hold-
furious second half of hardwood action the Cloverdale Clovers downed the Reelsville Indians in the Reelsville gymnasium last night. 84-59. The Indians started the tilt with shooting that was characterized by the below zero degree temperatures of the outdoors, letting the Clovers grab a ten point lead of 14-4. Indian pivot man Joe Williams then sparked the home team in the remaining minutes of the first period to put them within six,
19-13.
In a real battle of the boards

Bob Hope Open Gets Underway —The Bob Hope Desert Classic also known as the Confusion Open, gets underway today with the big five of pro golf hoping to break the string of longshot winners on the winter tour. All of the top money winners of 1964—Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Billy Casper, Tony Lema and Bobby Nichols —are entered in the $100,000 classic. But so are the darkhorse winners of the previous four tournaments staged this year—Paul Harney, the Los Angeles Open titlist; Wes Ellis Jr., who won at San Diego; Australia’s Bruce Crampton, the Bing Crosby Pro-Am king, and George Archer, a sophomore tourist who captured last week’s Lucky International. Both Nicklaus and Archer were ailing on the eve of the tournament —Nicklaus with an upset stomach and long George with a bad back. But both hoped to show up on the first tee. This event is sometimes called the Confusion Open because it is a 90-hole affair staged on four different courses. Even tournament-wise pros have been known to show up on the wrong course with the wrong trio of amateurs at the wrong time. The pros play for $80,000 in their own medal play sweepstakes with first prize worth $15,000. But at the same time, they play with four different sets of amateurs in competition worth another $20,000. The pro-amateur is played over the 72-hole route on Bermuda Dunes, Eldorado, Indian Wells and La Quinta county clubs. Sunday, the low 70 pros battle it out at Bermuda Dunes for the top prizes in the fifth round.
NYSAC Expects Report Soon NEW YORK UPI — The New York State Athletic Commission, investigating the story of Floyd Patterson's injured left hand, expects an official report on the injury early next week, says commission Chairman Melvin L. Krulewitch. Patterson, former two-time heavyweight champion, openly admitted Tuesday that he went into the ring against George Chuvalo Monday night with a left hand that was still being treated for a “bone seperation" on the third knuckle. In New York state a boxer can lose his license to fight if he enter* the ring knowingly injured. Patterson told a new T s conference not only that his hand was still being treated for the boneseperation but that the injury was largely responsible for his winning a unanimous 12-round i decision over Chuvalo. Had his left fist been normal he said, he would have concentrated on an all-out attack against the Tronto slugger and probably have been knocked out. Instead, he used more defensive tactics — circling and side-stepping — than at any previous time in his 15year professional career. Chairman Krulewitch said he expects a report from “our medical director Dr. Ira McCowm” early next week. The chairman said he had asked Dr. McCown “to investigate the mater and give us a complete report.’’ What puzzled Krulewitch was the fact that Patterson had undergone three official physical examinations before the fighttwo at camp and one at the weigh-in. Moreover, in the dressing room — just before the fight—"our chief deputy Frank Morris examined the fist bandages that all boxers wear and he put pressure on the band-

"I don’t know when it will be formed, or if it will,” ht said, “but right now we’re sort of a scheduling group.” While Wabash is an independent school, Pfund said the three other Hoosier institutions were reluctant to leave the XndiCollegiate Conference without assurance the other members would have some new alignment. The projected conference would have competition in all sports he said, including tennis, golf and track as well as baseball, basektball and football.

Keane Worrying About Mantle Johnny Keane already has picked up where other Yankee managers left off — worrying about Mickey Mantle. Keane, who succeeded Yogi Berra as Yankee skipper following the 1964 World Series, was in New York Tuesday and quickly found time for some encouraging words about Mantle, the outstanding but brittle outfielder. “He said he felt great and he looked great,” said Keane, who saw Mantle recently. “I didn’t : look at his legs, so I’m not ‘ qualified to say anything about their condition. Naturally, I plan to speak with him in Flor- | ida and get some idea about spring training. But I’m going to wait to see him train awhile 1 before I speak with him.” j Mantle, who received $100,000 last year, still has not signed his 1965 contract although the j Yankees came up with smaller prizes Tuesday when pitchers Stan Williams and Jim Brenneman came to terms. Three pitchers, including veteran Barry Latman, signed with the Los Angeles Angels. The other two were Ron Piche and Bob Radovich, both of whom were acquired over the winter. The Philadelphia Phillies signed outfielder Johnny Briggs and the Cincinnati Reds came up with three youngsters, pitcher John Hayes of New York, infielder Jimmy Manz of Cincinnati and catcher Mickey Burch of Dayton , Kyi.

my best to keep improving — hoping they won’t catch me.” Running true to form, the 18-year-old Yale freshman acknowledged his selection by the Amateur Athletic Union with
customary modesty.
“I think everyone in amateur sports is aware of the Sullivan Award.” he said, “and I knew I’d be up for it because of the success I had this year, And w’hen they picked the top 15 I was hoping I’d be able to get it, but of course I didn’t

Miami University Defeats Redskins The Miami University basketball team hopes It never sees Miami again. It isn’t that the boys are tired of the tropical weather because they spend most of their winter in frost-bitten Ohio, but what bothered the players is the cold reception they received from the University of Miami at the Miami Beach Convention Hall. Although it sounds more like a Florida promotional stunt, Miami of Ohio actually faced Miami of Florida Tuesday night. The Redskins from up North, Mid - America Conference leaders, laid claim to the name Miami more than 100 years before the Florida institution opened its doors, but it was the upstarts from Dixie which prevailed in basketball with a 10085 victory. Rick Barry', the nation’s highest scorer, notched 29 points while raising his career total to 2003 at the Coral Gables, Fla., school. Charlie Coles gained consolation honors for the Redskins by outscoring Bary with 41 points. The South’s Miami grabbed an early lead in the game and once forged ahead by as many as 23 points in gaining its 14th victory in 18 games. But the Ohio school, which lost its third contest, is likely to have the last laugh since first place in its conference will mean a trip to the NCAA tournament while the Hurricanes can’t go anywhere due to recruiting violations. Davidson, the only member of the nation's top 10 to see action, scored an 84-78 Southern Conference victory over VMI, Virginia Tech remained second in the runing with a 94-74 trouncing of Richmond, Minnesota mastered Northwestern 7066 and Syracuse stopped Niagra 83-76 in other important games. Dick Snyder tossed in 22 points and center Fred Hetzel added 20 as sixth-ranked Davidson won its 16th straight, the longest streak of any major team in the country. The Wildcats remained undefeated in conference play as all f i v e starters scored in double figures. A torrid second half shooting display by Tech, which connected on 56 per cent of its field goal attempts, carried Tech to its easy victory. Mickie Me Dade led the Gobblers with Pi points, followed by John Wetzel with 21 and John Whitsell with 19. Minnesota needed double figure scoring from four players to edge the stubborn Wildcats. Denis Dvoracek, w'ho contributed 13 for the night, sank two free throws with 26 seconds remaining to send the Gophers into the lead and Archie Clark, w’ho had 18, iced the game with a layup and free throw in the final 10 seconds. Junior star Dave Bing scored a career high of 37 points on 14 of 28 shots from the floor and nine of 11 shooting from the foul line to lead Syracuse to its fifth straight triumph. The Orange were hard pressed until the final six minutes when they outscored the F-igles 13-8 to raise their record to 7-8. In other games, Boston College routed Massachusetts 10996; Holy Cross drubbed Dartmouth 81-71; Baylor edged Texas Tech 77-74; Texas topped Rice 76-63; and Santa Clara crushed Memphis State 92-79.
Ask To Give Equal Treatment WASHINGTON UPI — Congress is being asked to give all major professional team sports the same treatment baseball gets under U. S. anti-trust law's. Sen. Philip A. Hart, D-Mich., a former official of both the Detroit Tigers baseball team and the Detroit Lions fotball team, introduced legislation to that effect Tuesday. Hart’s bill would bring professional baseball, football, basketball and hockey under the anti-trust laws. But it would also provide loopholes to permit league rules on the size of squads, agreements on territorial rights and so-called “reserve clauses” in players’ contract. Professional baseball has been exempt from anti-trust laws since 1922 when the Hu*
preme Court ruled It was not in interstate commerce. The decision was reaffirmed in 1953. Hart said his bill was intended to correct a situation under which baseball enjoyed an exemption from the anti-trust laws “while the other sports were relegated to the limbo of uncertainty as to where they stood.”
Dischinger Leads Final Attack By United Pr*u International The name of the game in the National Basketball Association is beat the clock and rarely has there been a more successful contestant than Terry Dischinger of the Detroit Pistons. Tall Terry, a second-year player from Purdue, found his team in the rather impossible situation of needing six points in the final 12 seconds to tie the Los Angeles Lakers Tuesday night. Responding to the challenge, Dischinger popped in tw’o quick baskets and then sank two free throws after time actually had ran out. That task accomplished, Dischinger settled dow-n to the merely difficult achievement of beating the Lakers, Western Division leaders, in overtime. He did so by scoring 11 of Detroit’s 13 points in the extra session as the Pistons polished off Los Angeles 121-118. All told, Dischinger accounted for 32 points in the game, played at Cleveland, Ohio, to wrest the spotlight from Laker forward Elgin Baylor w’ho led all scorers with 47 points. The surprising Pistons now have w'on six of their last seven games while the Lakers, playing without Jerry West who was sidelined with a heavy cold and fever, had their five-game winning streak broken. In other games, the Philadelphia 76ers rolled to their sixth victory in eight games since acquiring Wilt Chamberlain from San Francisco with a 119-105 conquest of St. Louis and the New York Knickerbockers whipped the Warriors 113-102 in a Madison Square Garden doubleheader. Chamberlain, who collected 24 points and 16 rebounds, received considerable help from Philadelphia's suporting cast. Backcourt wizards Hal Geer and Larry Costello scored 24 and 22 points respectively while rookie Lucious Jackson had 23 points and 17 rebounds. Greer now has scored 22 points or better in his last 10 games. Veteran forward Johnny Green tossed in 16 points in the final quarter and 23 for the game to help the Knicks gain their first home victory under new' Coach Hary Gallatin. Jim Barnes and Bob Boozer added 21 and 19 points, respectively, for the Knicks. who now hold a six-game winning streak over the Warriors.
