IU r s Jon McGlocklin Speaks At Banquet
St. Louis Hawks To Be Without The Services Of Bob Pettit
Indiana University Basketball star, Jon McGlocklin keynoted the annual Windy Hill Basketball Banquet Thursday night and spoke before members of the Cloverdale and Greencastle basketball teams. Mr. McGlocklin, a member of the I. U. ball club under now retired Branch McCracken, spoke to the boys about what he considered to be the essence of a basketball player. "An athlete,” he said, "is apart from everyone else in the community. His good qualities are noted and his bad points are known.” Mr. McGlocklin went on to say that the true athlete is constantly trying to improve himself and always wanting to win. But winning he noted isn't every- 1 thing. "Winning a ballgame or a sectional isn't as important as winning in life.” The former Franklin High School star commented on the great ability of Branch Me-1 McCracken, I. U. coach for 24 years, as “a great coach . . . . 1 the most dedicated man I’ve ever known.” In defining the difference between high school and college, McGlocklin pinpointed the main variation as being pressure. The pressure of a Big Ten game is like the
pressure of the final game in a toumament he said. The frequency of Big Ten games and the travel distance have proved difficult on the college grades, he added. In concluding his talk, McGlocklin touched briefly on the Archie Dees’ All-Stars and the conflict with the Indiana A. A. U. Teams have done this before, he said, but the present situation has been magnified from one little article in a newspaper. The main reason for conducting the tour was the fact that several people thought that I. U. fans would enjoy seeing the team play again, McGlocklin concluded. Prior to the keynote address, the members of the Cloverdale and Greencastle teams were introduced to the dinner guests. Gerald York, captain of the Tiger Cubs, thanked the Greencastle fans for the support and following during the past season. Cloverdale coach Jim Miller introduced the Cloverdale team and said that the "teams we beat were better than the team that beat us.” He ended his brief address by thanking the Putnam County fans for the support in the Regional and Semi-state games.
ST. LOUIS UPI — Richie Guerin, whose job as playercoach of the St. Louis Hawks was extended through next season, is optimistic about coaching the first St. Louis Hawk team without Bob Pettit. “You must remember that we’ve been without Pettit for much of the season,” Guerin said as he listed the three major injuries which have sidelined Pettit this season. Guerin replaced Harry Gallatin as Hawk coach on Dec. 29 this season and has been handicapped by injuries to the team since that time. As few as six able-bodied Hawks have been available for some games and no game has started with everyone on the roster in good physical condition. Despite these troubles the veteran player-rookie coach has led the team to a 26-19 record during his tenure. The Hawks have won eight of their last nine and 12 of their last 15 as NBA teams head isto the playoffs. Hawk owner Ben Kerner said Guerin is a "dedicated and determined leader who instilled a fighting spirit in the Hawks.”
UCLA Favorite To Win Second Straight PORTLAND, Ore. UPI — UCLA, winner of 30 straight last season and 26 out of 28 this year, was handed the uneasy role of favorite today for its second straight NCAA basketball championship. Coach Johnny Wooden’s ballhawking crew, rated a notch behind No. 1 Michigan in the season’s final UPI coaches’ poll, was picked by a large number of coaches here to become the fifth team to win two titles in a row since the playoffs began in 1939. UCLA meets Wichita’s surprising Shockers in tonight’s second semifinal game at 9 p. m. PST. Michigan’s muscle men face Princeton and fabulous Bill Bradley at 7 p. m.

Phillies Expecting Many Runs From Dick Stuart
Dick Stuart’s new Philadelphia Philly teammates are beginning to think the big slugger is almost as good as he says he is. It's a goodnatured relationship Stuart has with his teammates—he talks with a lot of bravado and they listen with polite laughs. But underneath the easy familiarity of spring training is the mutual understanding that the Phillies are expecting the 6-foot, 3-inch, 220-pound slugger to hit between 30 and 40 homers and drive in 100 runs this year. Stuart was acquired from the Boston Red Sox to rectify the lack of righthanded power hitting that was a principal cause of the Phillies’ 1964 National League Pennant defeat. And there was good news, indeed, at the PhilHes’ Clearwater, Fla., camp Thursday when Stuart made some noise with his bat as well as his larynx, in a 6-5 victory over the Detroit i Tigers. Stuart hit a three-run homer off Glen Hobbie in the; sixth inning to help the Phillies |
tie the score and then his second homer of the game in the 12th to give Philadelphia its third straight victory. Stuart’s first homer was a king-sized shot that sailed over the 35-foot-high center field wall. It was only the seventh ball hit over that barrier in 11 years. Three key pitchers — Bob Veale, Bob Friend and Elroy Face — starred for the Pittsburgh Pirates, who downed the Kansas City Athletics 7-1 for their fifth win in six exhibition games. Jerry Lynch and Orlando McFarland drove in two runs each for the Pirates. The Red Sox beat the Cleveland Indians 7-3, the Chicago White Sox topped the New York Yankees 6-5, the Los Angeles Angeles nipped the San Francisco Giants 8-7, the Los Angeles Dodgers routed the Washington Senators 13-5, the Houston Astros defeated the New York Mets 7-4, the Cincinnati Reds beat the St. Louis Cardinals 4-1, and the Minnesota Twins scored a 9-8 10-inning victory over the Milwaukee Braves in other games.
Aces Win In Hockey Came By United Press International Q u ebec and Providence played neck - and - neck hockey for two periods Thursday night until the last stanza, when both clubs reverted back to their usual performances. The Aces, kingpins of the American Hockey League’s Eastern Division, and the Reds, 41 points behind in the cellar, fought to a 3-2 score after two periods, with Quebec ahead. But both teams played true to form in the final period when the Aces exploded for four straight goals and a 7-2 decision in the only AHL game scheduled. Leon Rochefort started the blitz at 1:50 of the third period when he fired the puck past j Providence goalie Ed Giacom-; in. Wayne Hicks collected two goals and Ed Hoekstra registered a goal and an assist to pace the front-running Aces.
Frank Gifford Will Broadcast NEW YORK UPI — Frank Gifford hung up his cleats as a New York football Giant for the second time Thursday, but the 34-year-old offensive star won’t stand idle — he has a well-chosen, rewarding career waiting for him in broadcast-
i ing.
| When the Giants take to the ! gridiron next September, Gifi ford will be safe and sound in ! the press box serving as an analyst for all Giant games televised by the Columbia Broadcasting System. Gifford has carved himself a solid niche with CBS over the last six years while also playing ball for the Giants. The All-Pro back is a veteran of 12 campaigns with the New York club, playing for them since graduating from Southern Califfornia in 1952. Gifford’s earlier retirement was in 1961 after suffering a concussion during the 1960 campaign.

Marilyn Smith Holds A Two-Stroke Lead In Tourney
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla UPI — Holding a two - stroke lead in the $10,000 St. Petersburgh Women’s Open golf tournament may not be an auspicious thing to all to Marilyn Smith. The last time she started out that way, she wound up losing. Marilyn played a tight, steady game in Thursday’s opening round, holding herself in line despite a strong, gusty wind that had some of the 100 other *pro and amateur entrants fight-
ing through the rough. Miss Smith, who plays now out of Runaway Bay, Jamaica, had two 34s and a three-under-par 68 total over the 6,294 yards of the Sunset Country Cl u b course. She dropped a 60-footer on the seventh hole for an eagle 3, and picked up another stroke on par on the back nine. Tied at 70 behind her were Ruth Jessen of Bonsall, Calif., Sandra Haynie, Fort Worth, Tex., and Kathy Whitworth, San Antonio, Texas.
