Tigers look for 2nd win; California Western foe

California Western’s basketball team arrived in Greencastle this weekend to kick off a threegame Midwestern trip witli DePauw University tonight. Tipoff time for the varsity game is 7:30 p.m. in Bowman Gymnasium. DePauw’s frosh will meet St. Joseph’s frosh in the 5:30 p.m. preliminary match. The Westerners bring a 2-1 record into the Midlands. They opened witli an 88-50 win over Southern California College then edged Biola 74-68 the next night. The only blemish on the Western record is an 80-76 overtime loss on the road to Occidental last week. After the DePauw clash, the California crew will move on to the University of Evansville Wednesday for a game in Roberts Stadium then go to ChiRefs will set it out Sunday NEW YORK UP! -Six football officials who deprived the Los Angeles Rams of a down in the last minute of a crucial National Football League game with the Chicago Bears Sunday have been told they will sit out the one remaining week of the season-plus any post-season games Pro football commissioner Pete Rozelle barred the six from further action in a statement Monday that said “officials erred in not permitting Los Angeles one more down near the end of the eame.” Chicago won, 17-16, keeping its hopes for a Central Division title alive and eliminating the Rams from championship contention in the Coastal Division. A penalty against Los Angeles on the first down of its final series nullified an incomplete pass play. Following three additional incomplete passes, Rozelle said, “the ball was turned over to Chicago, thus depriving Los Angeles of a fourth down play to which it was entitled.” Rams coach George Allen viewed films of the game in Los Angeles Monday and agreed his team should gave gotten another down, but he had nothing to say for publication. Public criticism of game officials is against NFL rules, and Washington coach Otto Graham recently was fined $2,500 by Rozelle for saying “the officials stole the game from us.” Los Angeles was on its own 47-yard line, with five seconds left in the game, when the ball was given to Chicago after the penalty and three incomplete passes. It had 31 yards to go for a first down but could have had one more chance to throw a “bomb” or attempt a field goal, which would have come from some 60 yards away.

team.

Olympian Charlie Scott monopolized the headlines as North Carolina, the nation’s secondranked college team, won its first three games of the season but the Tar Heels proved Monday night that they have other stars who can rise to a

tough occasion.

Trailing Vanderbilt 40-39 at halftime in Charlotte, N.C., North Carolina out-scored the Commodores 61-38 in the final 20 minutes to raise its season record to 4-0. Leading the comeback with 22 points each were Dick Grubar and Bill Bunting with Rusty Clark adding 18 and Scott contributing

a modest 14.

Tom Hagan scored 23 points for Vanderbilt, which led during most of the first half and at one

point was ahead 29-21,

Kansas, ranked No. 10, scored a 79-56 victory over Xavier of Ohio but Duke, No. 12, suffered a 90-80 loss to Michigan. Kansas, refusing to panic in the face of Xavier’s full-court press, led 36-24 at halftime, forced 28 turnovers with its own zone press and out-rebounded its rival 49-38. nmi Harmon had 16 points and Jo Jo White 15 as the Jayhawks scored their third

victory in four games.

Unranked Michigan handed

Duke its first loss of the season with a fast-breaking offense paced by Rudy Tomjanovich’s 29 points and Mark Henry’s 20. Duke closed to within three points early in the second half but Tomjanovich, Henry and Dennis Stewart rallied the

Wolverines to a 63-52 lead. Dayton, which shares the No.

18 ranking with two other teams, breezed to a 53-34 halftime lead and trounced Portland 95-76. Dan Sadlier scored 18 points and Jim Gottschall had 17 for the Flyers, the National Invitation Tour-

IU not the same without Cooke

When Joe Cooke fouls out, Indiana’s basketball Hoosiers are in trouble. At least that’s been the case so far in their first three games, dropping two after Cooke fouled out. Kansas State stopped Indiana, 87-83 Monday night in overtime DPU coach gives talk Robert Harvey, coach of DePauw University’s track and cross country teams, was the speaker at the December meeting of the Greencastle Lions Club Monday evening at the FairwayRestaurant. Mr. Harvey, who attended the Olympics last fall at Mexico C- f y, made many interesting observations concerning the games and the individual athletes from throughout the world who competed. He also showed some very colorful movies which he had taken of the games and other activities. President Norman Pelfreyalso presented Cecil Sharp, Lions District Governor from Brownsburg, who spoke of the results of the Lions in improving international relationships. Also stressed were the three State Lions projects, Cancer Control, Leader Dogs, and the Eye Bank.

an 18.0 average in two games. He scored eight at Occidental. Early Evans, 6-5, junior forward, scored 20 against Southern California and has 47 points in three games. A big surprise for the San Diego school has been Bill Ringhand, a sophomore center who has scored 27 points and grabbed 15 rebounds. Ringhand is 6-5 and weighs 185 pounds, but he’s not the biggest man on the Western squad. That label belongs to 6-8, 205 pound Chet Warfel. Kloppenburg, whose teams have won 173 and lost 94 in 10 years at Western, expresses satisfaction with his club’s 1968 start: “Our defense has been good and I am particularly impressed with the performance of Ringhand.” DePauw, 1-2 after losing to Illinois Wesleyan at Bloomington Friday, 87-78, will go with Larry Downs at forward, Mike O’Connell at center, Tom McCormick at forward, and guards Dave Browning and Dale Barrett. McCormick, with 28 at Wesleyan, leads DePauw’s scoring with a 23.7 average. All the rest of Coach Elmer McCall’s starters are in double figures ex-

cept Barrett who has scored 16 and 13 in his last two games to make up for a shutout at Villanova McCall was dissatisfied witli the Tigers’ man to man defense at Wesleyan and he wasn’t happy either with the meagre three offensive rebounds DePauw managed in the last half. The Tigers trailed at halftime 46-44 and were down 78-75 before fouls turned the tide. Tonight’s game with Western is the first between the two schools. DePauw will be seeking to extend its 13-game home court winning streak that dates back to March, 1967, when DePauw lost here, 73-70, to Evansville. Probable Lineups

Lew-CLA unanimous pick

NEW YORK (UPI) _ UCLA has no equal in college

basketball.

That’s the decision voiced today by the 35-member United Press International Coaches Board, which unanimously listed the Bruins as the top college

basketball team in the nation. UCLA, defending NCAA champion and unbeaten in three games this season, beating some of the nation’s leading powers, received the maximum 350 points in the first week’s balloting for games played

through Sunday. North Carolina captured second easily, taking 31 of 35 second place votes and amassing 309 points and outdistancing Davidson (No. 3) by close to 140

points.

after Cooke fouled out with 12 seconds remaining in regulation time. The Hoosiers trailed by 13 at the half but stormed back with Cooke leading the way. He hit three fielders in the waning minutes of regulation time, the last from 25 feet out tying the game at 75-75. Cooke got 29 for the game. Gene Williams hit three fielders for Kansas State in the extra session and the Wildcats iced it on a pair of free throws each by Dave Lawrence and Steve Honeycutt. Indiana lost its opener to Ohio University by 10 points after Cooke fouled out of that one, Indiana was outscored 21-7 after Cooke left the game. Indiana’s seven point victory over Missouri Saturday saw Cooke get only 8 points, but he didn’t foul out, either. Indiana State belted South Dakota, 74-64, leading all the way. The Sycamores, with four players in double figures, rolled into a 35-22 halftime lead and scored nine straight in the early going of the second period to build up a 44-22 advantage. South Dakota rallied to cut the margin to 10 at 54-44 with 9:46 left, but 10 points was as close as the game got from that point.

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Although too early for firm estimates, early returns to the State Fish and Game Department of the Department of National Resources indicate another average year in the annual Indiana deer harvest. As of Monday afternoon, statistics available to the depart, ment showed a deer kill of 2,900 thus far on the three military reservations providing a large proportion of the state’s annual take. This contrasts with about 3,800 taken last year. The figure will increase considerably as final returns come in and due to a lengthening of the season at the Jefferson Proving Grounds from December 9 through December 21. In all other areas of the state the season ended Monday. Figures available at this time indicate 1,600 deer have been taken out of the Crane Naval Ammunition Depot, 1,100 from the proving grounds and another 200 from Camp Atterbury. Preliminary figures reveal archers will probably increase their take this year as the sport continues to gain in popularity. Over 160 kills have already been reported on military reservations in Indiana as compared to 167 for last year. The bow and arrow season, split into two

parts this year, will continue for its final half from Decernber 10 through the 15th. Total deer taken by archers last year statewide was 278. William E. Ginn, head statistician for the Fish and Game Department, said, due to a lack of clerical personnel, the final figures on this year’s take will not be out for several months.

annual game

Mexico was ranked fifth and Villanova was listed in sixth. Notre Dame took the No. 7 ranking, followed by Cincinnati,

Purdue and Kansas.

St. Bonaventure led the second 10, edging Duke and Houston. Western Kentucky was 14th, followed by Santa Clara, New Mexico State and Detroit. Ohio State and Dayton tied for 18th and Southern California completed the top 20 listing. UCLA, seemingly better than ever, rolled past Purdue, Ohio State and Notre Dame, three teams ranked in the top 20, easily in its first three games. The Bruins, with a talented array of sophomores joining awesome Lew Alcindor, back for his final collegiate campaign, had little trouble, with 11 points their lowest winning

margin.

North Carolina, favored to sweep the Atlantic Coast Conference, put together back-to-back victories over Oregon before stopping Kentucky. Davidson, also 3-0, stopped Virginia Military, Furman and Vandervilt while Kentucky beat Xavier and Miami (Ohio) before bowing to North Carolina. New Mexico, also unbeaten in three games, holds a pair of decisions over Hawaii and a victory over Abilene Christian while Villanova, picked by many as the top team in the East, recorded triumphs over DePauw, Princeton and Philadelphia Textile. Sophomore studded Notre Dame (1-1) turned in an impressive performance in losing to top ranked UCLA while Cincinnati won its three games, beating South Dakota, Kansas State and North Dakota State. Purdue followed up its opening loss to UCLA with triumphs over North Dakota and Miami (Ohio) while Kansas (2-1) sandwiched victories over St. Louis and Loyola (111.) around a loss to Wisconsin.

SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)—The East will have more runners of quality but the West will have better quarterbacks and pass receivers on Dec. 28 in the 44th annual Shrine East-West Football Game at Candlestick Park. All-America Leroy Keyes of Purdue, Ron Johnson of Michigan, Charlie Jarvis of the Army and Perry Williams, also of Purdue, are the East’s running backs for the game that benefits crippled children’s hospitals. The west team, named Sunday, lists All-America fullback Bill Enyart of Oregon State, Ross Montgomery of Texas Christian, Jack Stewart of Texas Tech and Dick Davis of Nebraska as the running backs. While the East will be piloted by quarterbacks Fred Summers of Wake Forest and Dennis Brown of Michigan, the West will be led by Ronnie Johnson of Oklahoma State and Brooks Dawson of Texas at El Paso. Thus, the game shapes up as a battle between the East's running power and the West’s passing attack. Dawson was one of the nation’s leading passers this past season with 123 completions for 764 yards and 14 TDs. Dawson won’t have to worry about throwing the ball since he'll have such fine receivers as Gene Washington of Stanford, Gene Huey of Wyoming and Louis Thomas of Utah. Keyes, Johnson, Jarvis and Williams will do their running against a West team anchored on defense by big Joe Greene of North Texas State, George Buehler of Stanford and Eb White and Mike McCaffrey of California. Greene, an AllAmerica, checks in at 274 pounds while Buehler weighs Big ‘E’ slipping from lead NEW YORK (UPI)—Elgin Baylor and Wilt Chamberlain are beginning to move up on rookie Elvin Hayes in the National Basketball Association scoring race. Hayes, the All America from Houston, leads the league with 811 points and a 30.0 average for San Diego. Baylor, Los Angeles Lakers veteran forward, deadlocked Seattle’s Bob Rule for second place at 739 points. Chamberlain, once the perennial NBA scoring champion, is far back of the crowd, but has jumped from 20th place to 14th with 560 points as he begins his move toward loftier brackets. The Los Angeles center continues to lead in two categories, topping the loop in field goal percentages with a .615 mark, and rebounds with 580 retrieves. Adrian Smith of Cincinnati is the leading free throw shooter with an .857 percentage and Len Wilkens of Seattle is first in assists with 273.

only 13 less pounds. A1 Worley of Washington and John Didion of Oregon State are other All-Americas on the West team. Didion is the team’s center while Worley is the defensive back who set an NCAA record this past season with 17 interceptions. Duffy Daugherty of Michigan State, Tom Cahill of Army and John Pont of Indiana are the East coaches while the West is led by Bob D e v a n e y of Nebraska, Dee Andros of Oregon State and Don Coryell of National Small College Champion San Diego State. From gridiron to stage NEW YORK (UPI) - Jim Brown is well and soaking up plenty of sun in Acapulco. At least he was only a few days ago. Jim Brown is a big movie star now and lie was in Acapulco for the annual International Film Festival they hold down there. It seems like only yesterday that Brown was burning up the NFL with the Cleveland Browns. Actually it was three years back that Brown was dominating all pro football. He was easily the best around. By far. When he quit, Blanton Collier, the Cleveland coach, didn’t kid himself or anybody else. “I don’t expect to replace him,” he said about Brown. “Runners like him come along once in a lifetime.” Collier was right. He couldn't reasonably expect to find another ball player as good as Brown. Not in a hundred years. Oh, year? Kelly Another Brown Well, all it took was one year and maybe 26-year-old Leroy Kelly isn’t as good as Jim Brown was right now, but you’d be surprised how many sound judges of football talent think he has a chance some day to be even better. “At least this guy blocks,” cracked one of those judges. Kelly does any number of other things also. He hits. Not just once or twice but three and four times on the same play. He has a different style of running than Brown had although he gets essentially the same results. Once you see Kelly in action, you never forget him. He is somewhat reminiscent of hammering Henry Armstrong, the galvanized little fellow who punched and punched and punched his way to three different titles in the ring. They used to call him “Perpetual Motion.” That’s the way it is with Kelly. He never quits coming at you.

FULLMER RESTS SAN REMO, Italy (UPI)— Don Fullmer of West Jordan, Utah, took a day off Sunday, but is expected to resume training Monday for his middleweight title fight with champion Nino Benvenuti on Saturday.
