Pile 2D EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Wed., March 13, 1963 Additional Sports On Page 9D Againsf His Own Baltimore Colts j WWW ft Rosenbloom Accused of Making Bet MIAMI, Fla. Wl Carroll D. Rosenbloom, owner of the Balti more Colts, has been accused in federal court of betting $55,000 against his own team in a 1953 National Football League game. Rosenbloom's own lawyer put the accusation on the record Tuesday in an attempt to have ex-gambler Mike McLaney, of Miami Beach, who made the deposition three years ago, cited for criminal contempt. He said the charge was a vicious and outrageous lie. But Judge George C. Young threw out the contempt mo tion, emphasizing th&t he was not ruling on the truth or fal sity of the accusation. Also made public Tuesday were three affidavits in which McLaney's associates swore that Rosenbloom was a big better. National Football League reg ulations forbid betting by play ers or owners. Robert J. McGravey, once a Philadelphia detective, declared that he was Rosenbloom's per sonal assistant from 1951 to 1954 and that he had often placed bets for him.

The game for a Derth in next week's state A-2 tournament at Coos Bay was by Elmira 55-50. Tickets for Finale In Tourney Qone The final championship game of the State A l high school basketball tournament on Saturday night, Mar. 23, is already a tell-out as far as reserved seats for the public aro concerned. The University of Oregon athletic department reported that the last of the tickets wore sold Tuesday a couple of hours be fore the last tournament berth was filled.

But UO athletic department officials weren't ready to pre dict how great the effect will be. The new high school standard raises the required grade level for automatic admission for an out-of-state student from 2.50 to 2:75 grade point average (GPA). A student who does not meet that requirement is also admissable from a 2.25 to 2.75 if specified test scores are com bined with his GPA to meet a formula of predicted success which has been worked out by admission officers. Basically, the formula re quires the further below a 2.75 the grade point average falls (to the low limit of 2.25) the higher the test scores must be to make it possible for the stu dent to be admitted. "This new formula for high school is bound to eliminate possible athletes," an athletic department spokesman pointed out, "but how many is impossi ble to predict until it has been observed in operation. We are not familiar with the operation al details of the new formula, and until we work with it a year it would be pure guesswork to make any estimate of how many of the present members of the various athletic gorups would have failed to gain admittance under the new setup." Under the new requirements, the out-of-state college transfer level is raised from a 2.0 to a 2.25, and this basically affects junior college transfers. The department spokesman noted: "The new requirement will probably eliminate a few transfers, but we usually don't have more than a dozen or so in the entire program each year. While it won't have much effect numerically, it could prevent the transfer of a possible key man who would have been ad mitted under the old standard." Women's Volleyball 1.

For Rowing Championships Lane County Sites Being Considered Two reservoirs in Lane Coun ty are being considered as pos sible sites for the Western In tercollegiate Rowing Champion ships in 1965. Col. Sterling K. Eisiminger, U.S. Army District Engineer at Portland, said Tuesday he has been advised of this possibility by Karl F. Drlica, rowing coach at Oregon State University.

OSU Five Takes Final Home Drill CORVALLIS Lfi Oregon State took a final practice ses sion at home Wednesday, prior to leaving for Provo, Utah, and tho Far West NCAA playoff Friday night. The team will leave by plane from Salem Thursday morning. Assistant coach Paul Valcnti, who scouted the Beavers' oppon ent, San Francisco, last week-1 end, warned that San Francisco will be tough. "They're reasonably good sized, and they have quick guards who can cause you a lot of trouble," Valcnti said. If Oregon State gets by San Francisco, the Saturday night opponent will be tho winner of tho Ariiona State-UCLA game.

A racing course would re quire a 2,000-meter straighta way with six 50-foot lanes, or a minimum of 300 feet width. Some additional length would be needed on either end of the course for maneuvering the 60 foot racing shells. Drjica told the Register-Guard that Dexter Lake looks like a "pretty good possibility" bet ter than Fern Ridge but noted that a group is needed to sponsor the races and spon sorship involves costs of $4,000 to $5,000. Expenses, however, can be offset by revenue from the meet, he indicated. The championships are award ed on a bid basis, he said. Richard Melvin, an investor, said in his affidavit, "I distinct ly remember that during one professional season he made nine straight winning bets on professional football games." Larry E. Murphy, onetime Mc Laney chauffeur, swore, "1 par ticularly remember that in 1953 when his team was playing against the 49ers on the coast, Rosenbloom bet a large amount of money against his own team, and because of the point spread, won the bet." The affidavits) made in con nection with a stock deal suit in 1960, were sealed and the suit was dismissed by Federal Judge Joseph Lieb Jan. 5, 1961. Last winter, a Miami Beach private investigator, Sam Ben ton, turned the depositions over to NFL Commissioner Pete Ro zelle. On the witness stand, Ben ton said he wanted "to remove the halo" from Rosenbloom. When Rorelle took no action, Benton testified, he made 40 copies of the affidavits and dis tributed them among NFL club owners at a January meeting here. Rosenbloom's lawyers said the affidavits were "replete with contradictions and false holds." Besides, they argued, the unorthodox method in which they were given to NFL club owners "prevented" legal pro cedures and "insulted" the court. DUNHAM'S 'Whcle-of-a-deol" But Judge Young said he con strued the sealing orders to apply only to the Rosenbloom McLaney contract law suit. Rosenbloom's lawyers ham mered hard at McLaney's spe cific charge of a $55,000 bet against the Colts in 1953. Mc Laney testified at first that the bet was against the Colts in a game with the Pittsburgh Steel ers. "This was utter fabrication," said Jerome Doyle, Rosen blooni's attorney. "No such foot ball game took place." But McLaney's lawyer insist ed that his client was talking about another game. The Colts played the 49ers twice that year and lost 38-21 and 45-15. McLaney had sworn that Ro senbloom left several of his best players at home for the game.
