The logical answer would appear lo be field goal shot, worth two points, bul that isn't right any more. Here's the mathematics proving that under , Ihe bonus rule it is worth more to be fouled lhan it is lo be allowed to shoot from the field. The way teams are shooting now adays, they'll hit one basket In every three tries; therefore having Ihe bail three limes is worth 2 points. The average team hits about 6 out of every 10 free throws, which manes every free-throw opportun- ny wonn .0 01 a point. By making the first free throw 6 out of 10 times, the fouled team will get 6 additional free throws. Each addi tional free throw is worlh (.6 x .600) or .38 of a point. 80, each foul is worth ,96 of a point lo Ihe fouled team. In three l ushes. Ihe value of he- ing louJed is (3 x .961. or 2. H8 points, while the value of being diiowea o snoot is only 2 points, That's why It is now smarter to lot a team shoot than to commit loui.

Then when he was hit again, on the back o the neck with a penny he walked to the scoring (able and announced, "fhat's it. the came is over and Is forfeited to Southern California There was no demonstration around the table or around either the Cal or USC bench. Players, coaches, and officials started to de- part for the dressing rooms in or derly fashion, although as much cannot be said for some of the fans. "I don't know who they were, oiJ from which section of Mm pavilion they came. Bul come they did. and had it not Jcen for Ihe fast and efficient work of four Berkeley policeman, I have my doubts as lo lust what kind of physical shape would have been in when and if I did get to the dressing room.

He said he put "no blame on California officials, the rooting section or Ihe band. I cannot prove: the Ir.vtng objects came from them. It has been said l hul kids were seen throwing stuff.

Immediately it was announced that Holman's triumpi earned him a Fob. 37 date in Madison Square Garden against either Nino Valdes ranked third among the challen gers, or the winner of the HurrI cane J uekson-Bob Baker bout Baker was ranked second, ahead of VaMeV. Satterfield, who had won over both Baker and Valdes earlier to win his ranking, was cold as ice against Holman. He looked fast in the first round until he grew cautious ibecause Holman was blocking well." Tien he was tagged with a right cross and floored for a nine count in the second Tound and barely managed to finish the session. In the third he ran into two more potent rights and went down for an eight count. Thereafter it was Holman by an ever widening margin until he pushed homett finishing right hand with sprplising speed in the eighth Satterfield dropped on his back and though he "was on his feet at eight.

"It appears that most everyone, including the fans, is happy with the present rules." said Crisler. It was revealed that Frank Mc Cormick. boss of officials for the Pacific Coast Conference had re ceived proposals for about ZiO changes in rules but most of these have been eliminated before the session gets under way. Still left lor officials to handle are the appointment of the Kxecu tivo Committee and the lor TV Committee. The latter is expected to bear Ihe brunt of some proposed changes in the rules recanting sec tional handling of televised fit ball games.

HUSH SKIN IAS ANGKI.KS ILT) Notre On me and the University of Calif ornia have sL-ned lo meet in a Coaches of Small Schools Dubious Of 2nd Tourney PORTLAND (UP) Small college jasketball coaches expressed feai .oday that the NCAA's decision to wld two basketball tournaments annually might hurt the already successful NA1A tourney. The NCAA decided in Los An eles yesterday to hold a small college national basketball tourney to be known as the college division. Schools may decide whether they want to play in the "University Division or the "College Division'' but they must make their intent known at least one year in ad vance. Members of the Northwest Con ference and Portland University are in both the NCAA and NA1A. Oregon College Conference mem bers, except for Oregon College of Education, are in the NAIA. OCE is in bolh. Sharkey Nelson, coach at Port land State, said "I'd hate to see anything hurt the NAIA." He add ed, however, that there are many fine teams whici can't get intol tournament play and that "now more should get a chance." Eldon Fix of Lewis and Clark said "the NCAA had to come to I this or Jt would have lost all its small colleges." Fix, who is chair man of the NAIA's district 2 com mittce, said the Northwest Confer ence had been disappointed by tno NCAA. "All they tell us is what we can't do." Al Negrattl, coach at Portland University, said he believed there were enough schools for three tournaments. 1 le predicted the NAIA and NCAA tourneys wouldn't hurt each other unless they were ueld at the same time. Bob Quinn, coach at Eastern Oregon, said "the NAIA has pio neered this thing and I don't see why the NCAA should break in on it now. My first thought is that it won't be so good." 4-Point Bowling Victories Posted .Me rebuilt league Team W. I.. J. C. Penney Co. 10 2 Oregon Trunk Ry 8 4 Hanson's Markei 8 4 Lundgren's Lbr.

He Says Orioles Wont Be Sensational, Just Improved BALTIMORE, Md., (UP) Paul Richards, steering clear of any rash promises, conceded today the Baltimore Orioles "won't be sen-l rational" this year but he insisted they will be "100 per cent im proved over last year." Richards has a flock of logical reasons why he feels the Oriole? certainly will better their seventl. place fir.ish of 1955. "We were a much more solii ball clut toward the end of las season r.han at the beginning," h said. "Ony three clubs outplaye. us over (lie last half of the season New York, Cleveland and Chicago "Another reason the club is bound to be better is because I know a lot more about it than I did last spring. But most important of all, wf have some young fellows on the club who I just know will be fine ballplayers one day. Sharp youngsters Among the youngsters Richards referred to were catcher Hal Smith, infi elders Wayne Causey, Gus Triandos.

We 11 be much stronger at first base and behind the plate, espe cially since the men there now have a year's experience under their belts," Richards said. "Willie Miranda gives us everything we need at shortstop, and the addition of Bobby Adams should furnish us with better infield reserve strength han we had last year.'.
