Local grapplers in win Greencastle High School’s wrestlers upped their season record to 2-1 yesterday afternoon with a 33-17 decision over Brazil. Winners for the local grapplers were Mike Hurst, 120pounds; Don Ellis, 127-pounds; Phil Gruenholz, 133-pounds; Dusty Brewster, 138-pounds; John Goff, 145-pounds; Pat Luzar, 165-pounds, and Mark Monnett, 175-pounds. The next meet scheduled for the Tiger Cubs is against West Lafayette on Tuesday, and then they will face Terre Haute Schulte on Thursday at home. O. J. to choose his team? NEW YORK (UPI)—What would happen if O, J. Simpson told the pro football owners that he didn’t want to play in either Philadelphia or Buffalo? Could a player of his stature force pro football to let him play where he wants to? Could he challenge the draft system? It’s not likely to happen but it’s obvious that Simpson has given the idea some thought. Simpson, who received the Heisman Trophy as the nation’s top collegiate football player Thursday, said, he'd prefer to play in Los Angeles or San Francisco but Philadelphia (112) and Buffalo (1-11-1) are leading in the race for him now. "I know I have to set a certain price on myself but right now I would rather not talk about a football contract. His wife had their firstborn child, a girl, on Wednesday. “The Heisman award is the greatest honor a football player can receive,” he said after becoming the 34th player to get it. "But I have to admit, I’m more excited right now about my daughter who was born Wednesday. I don’t know her name yet but I guess it won’t be John Heisman.”

By United Press International UCLA’s tough 1-2-3 initiation into the rigors of the 1968-69 basketball season goes into its second stage tonight, with the No. 1 Bruins seeking their 18th consecutive victory—and 64th in the past 65 games—against 14ranked Ohio State. Lew Alcindor, with big help from a pair of sophomores, paced UCLA to a victory over 11th-ranked Purdue Saturday to open the season. Fourth-ranked Notre Dame will try to derail the express Saturday night, should Ohio State fail.

Purdue’s Boilermakers apparently were trying Thursday night to make amends for the loss to UCLA. They humbled North Dakota 116-84, setting a school scoring record behind Rick Mount’s 31 points.

Woody Hayes named ‘Coach of Year’

By United Press International Stop Elvin Hayes and you stop the San Diego Rockets. It’s rare when the tough pros of the Naational Basketball Association accord a rookie such an honor but that’s the way they feel about the 6-9, 235pound former University of Houston All-American, who is leading the league in scoring. Hayes has been the sensation of the NBA so far this season but the Philadelphia 76ers found a way to hold him to 20 points Wednesday night and scored an easy 110-99 victory over the Rockets. Hayes, who was handicapped by four early fouls,, fell 10 points below his

Junior High upend C’dale 7, 8th graders

Greencastle’s seventh and eighth grade basketball teams chalked up two more wins last evening against the Cloverdale seventh and eighth grades, winning 46 to 39, and 57 to 49 respectively. In the seventh grade game, Greencastle and Cloverdale were tied 10-10 at the end of the first quarter of play, but the hosts outscored the visitors 16 to 7 in the second quarter to hold a comfortable 26-17 halftime lead. Leading 38-24 at the end of three quarters, Cloverdale rallied with a 15-point quarter while Greencastle could count only eight, but still held on for the 46 to 39 win. In the second contest of the evening, the local eighth graders found themselves having to play catch-up ball for most of the

evening, as they fell behind 13-3 at the end of the first quarter. Coming on strong in the second stanza to score 18-points, they found themselves trailing by four, 25 to 21, at the half. The eighth graders closed the gap to one, 36-35, at the end of the third period and proceeded to tuck the game away with a 22point scoring spree in the fourth quarter while limiting Cloverdale to 13. The seventh graders now have a season record of 2-0 and will tackle the Plainfield A & Bteams here on Monday. For the eighth graders, they now have a 3-1 season record and will travel to Brazil on Thursday.

Dakota State 68-51 and VMI outclasses Furman 83-55. Also, Northwestern defeated Missouri 79-67, North Carolina State beat New York University 61-49 and Manhattan College trimmed Long Island University 69-63 in a Madison Square Garden doubleheader, Temple stopped Lehigh 77-62, Boston College defeated Lemoyne 86-66, Georgia beat Georgia Tech 8474, and Texas Christian beat Southwest Louisiana 75-58. Come From Behind Despite Mount’s high-point performance for Purdue, it was sophomore George Faerber who provided the incentive for the Boilermakers' high-scoring victory. The 6-5 Faerber came off the bench in the first half and sparked Purdue from a threepoint deficit to a 57-46 halftime lead. North Carolina State bottled up the NYU attack with a virtually impenetrable zone defense that forced the Violets to fire from outside. The Wolfpack got the rebounding edge and hit at a 52 per cent clip to mount a big lead and breeze to the victory. Theodis Lee and Ken Spain controlled the backboards and scored 50 points between them to keep Houston’s Cougars rolling. The pressing Houston defense forced 25 Arizona turnovers. Tech Falters Texas Tech took a 42-36 halftime lead over Colorado, but the Buffs took advantage of Red Raider fouls in second half to overcome the deficit. Colorado’s Cliff Meely led all scoring with 24 points. Northwestern and Missouri were locked in a tight battle for most of the first half, then Northwestern moved away to a 40-32 halftime margin and coasted the rest of the way. Bob Leinhard’s 29 points paced Georgia’s victory, before 10,000 partisan backers, in the Bulldogs’ clash with arch-rival Georgia Tech. The 6-11 junior hit 9 of 11 field goal attempts and 11 of 11 from the free throw line. Boston College used the fast break and a hefty rebound advantage to carve out an 18point first half lead over Lemoyne. Bob Cousy’s Eagles were paced by the 21 points of Bill Evans.

By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)— Everybody’s asking the same question. Who’s right and who’s wrong? The owners or the ballplayers? From where I stand and from what I can see in the big hotel lobby here being used as the main base of operations for the major league baseball meetings, the answer strikes me as both. The players are right in some DePauw at DL Wesleyan With four 1967-68 starters returning, three other letter men on hand, and a good batch of newcomers, Illinois Wesleyan Coach Dennis Bridges feels the Titans should be nobody’s patsie this campaign. How tough the Wesleyanites are should be quickly exposed tonight whenDePauw’s 1-1 Tigerstackle them in Bloomington, 111. The game will be broadcast live by WGRE-FM (DePauw). Tipoff time is 8:55 p.m. Greencastle time. “We should have outstanding shooting, both from the field and from the free throw line. We should be a strong rebounding team, possibly the strongest in the league. We’ll have good depth and we have a lot of experience,” said Bridges whose team understandably has been picked to win its conference championship.

of their beliefs and wrong in others. Same way with the owners. There’s equity on both sides, as lawyers like to say among themselves. That’s gen., erally the case when neither side is inclined to give an inch. It’s easy for me to under, stand, for example, when a Jim Lonborg says, “We feel there’s a constant communication gap between the players and the owners. We’re not getting any answers to the questions we’re asking.” I’m not a ballplayer but I know about that gap Lonborg is talking about. Usually the owners are about as informative and communicative as a row of empty beer bottles. They’re always hiding some deep dark secret.

Players Also Wrong The players, on the other hand, are dead wrong when they attempt to sit back and take the high-handed attitude of who . cares - what - happened or how-it-is-done-before...this-is.the-way. it’s-going-to-be-done-now. A pitching coach for a National League club was instructing some rookie hurlers in the club’s farm system this past summer and made an offhand reference to Walter Johnson. When the coach finished his talk, one of the kid pitchers came up to him and said: “I never heard of Walter Johnson and the name means nothing to me. I think you could’ve made your point better by using some present pitcher as an illustration.”
