Both fighters agreed the ver dict could mean a big step to ward a title bout with champion Gene Fullmer of West Jordan, Utah. Cotton came to Denver origin ally to fight Fullmer in a non- title match, but the champion had to withdraw from the bout because of a cut eye suffered last week in his fight with Ernie Durando. MVC Probes Accusations On Gambling St. Louis U.R) Missouri Valley conference officials turn ed up no leads today in a ru mored gambling connection by a suspended referee. The league president, the Rev. Charles L. Sanderson of St. Louis university, refused to name the referee. He said, "The conference decided not to reveal the name of the official and we will continue that policy." Commissioner Art Eilers, in Chicago to run down accusers of the referee, found no evidence to support the rumors. The referee was suspended af ter the president of Wichita uni versity reported rumors that Wichita, moving up toward the valley basketball championship until a few days ago, was slated to lose its next three games. High Rating The referee, assigned to work all three games, was to use a "biased" whistle to control the ppint spread issued by basket ball handicappers operating out of Minneapolis, according to rumors. The official worked the first game, but was withdrawn from the next two, although he re ceived his usual fee. Coaches in the game gave him a high rating, the referee said. He added that he did not know how the rumors started and he was willing to appear before any investigative body to clarify the situation. Eilers said the referee had a reputation for independence and ability, and may be the victim of a "whispering campaign." LAKERS COULD MOVE New York (U.R) Unless a Minneapolis civic group can match his $150,000 offer by March 13, former big league manager Marty Marion will be come owner of the Minneapolis Lakers pro basketball team and move it elsewhere. Marion and his associate, Milton Fischmann, agreed with Lakers' owner Ben Berger Tuesday on a "provision al" sale of the National Basket- ball association club. ' Boston Celtics Closer To Title By UNITED PRESS The Boston Celtics moved a step closer toward the Eastern division regular season title in the National Basketball associa tion today. Playing without the injured Bob Cousy and Arnie Risen, the Celtics still managed to defeat the Rochester Royals Tuesday night, 92-77, and now need only three more victories in nine re maining games to clinch the di vision title. The New York Knickerbock ers, whose chances for a playoff berth get slimmer every day, rolled to an easy 107-76 victory over the St. Louis Hawks at Madison Square Garden after the Celtics cut down the Royals. Syracuse defeated the Minne apolis Lakers, 120-108, in the only other game played Tuesday night. 'Cats or Badgers To Be NCAA Host Portland U.R) Either Lin- field or Pacific will host an at large team in the first round of the NCAA small college basket ball tourney. The game will be plaved on the Oregon team's home court March 5. Pacific currently leads the Northwest conference with one game to play. Linfield's season is completed. Should Pacific lose its final game with Willamette Saturday night, the two clubs would be tied for the Northwest conference flag. In that event, league members would be polled to name the loop's representa tive. Probable opponent for the Northwest entry will be either San Diego State, Santa Barbara State or the runnerup for the Far West Conference title.

Corby , Handicap 2245 204 2084 A University of Michigan study indicates that three of four American adults have never tak en an air trip, half have never been more than 100 miles by bus, 30 per cent have never trav eled by train and 11 per cent have never traveled more than Is That So? It won't be lone now until we'll be hearing that fine, wild cry of night flying geese honk ing overhead. If your town is located on their migratory route, you may save some of their lives by seeing that street lights are doused when it rains during hours of overnight alighting. In alighting ducks and geese sometimes mistake glistening wet pavement for quiet water and the force of their landing impact may kill them. A duck hunter reading this may snort out loud, contending that ducks and geese always slow down while alighting and then "go plop" into the water, j but never hard enough to kill I them. I The facts won't sustain the duck hunter: in fact upon one occasion in the northwest, 52 dead geese were found in one town after a rain; and at an air port a dozen dead canvasbacks cracked up during a rainy night. Perhaps it is because ducks and geese land differently in the dark of night with "full flying power on." The object possibly being that if they have made a mistake in the semi-darkness and have gotten into unfriendly ter ritory that they can take off again at the very last moment. Once slowed up, they'd be com mitted. In watching the setting sun we often miss the very best part of the show by simply failing to look in the opposite direction. There, in the dull - lit eastern half, the lighting is indirect and the colors are often more posi tive hence much more drama tic. Many small creatures remain active under the snow during February. Among them, mice. And of mice, the tiny young deer mice are so light in weight that they can hop from one dry grass stalk to another to collect rich seeds without so much as bend ing them unduly. Mammals below primates see only in movement certainly you've read this before, and in this column. But what does it mean, "seeing in movement"? Moving Letter Imagine that you can look at this page of newsprint and not see anything. And then, that one single letter was somehow made to move. Then, you'd be able to see that movement very well and the exact way that one letter was moving. But you would not be able to read anything else on the whole page or be more than aware of its existence. And so your dog. A squirrel gallops up the side of a tree and suddenly freezes. The dog com ing up cannot see it until the wind may stir up a hair or two, then suddenly he can see the movement just like that one moving letter of type. Surely you've seen a dog look out of a window and suddenly bark at the expanse of land scape for no seemingly good reason. And yet, if you'll look closely, perhaps you'll see a bird hopping; or afar off, perhaps a mile away, a cow, or a man or another dog moving. Now with sight-at-rest denied, remove color vision as well. Imagine everything blending to gether in dull shades of gray. See now what most mammals and your dog are up against? And how effective a hunted ani mal's instinct "to freeze" and re main motionless. Clouds could not form In the air if it were absolutely clean even the tiniest bit of moisture must have a speck of salt or dust to condense upon. Then only can water droplets form. Incidentally, there is so much salt in the air that despite its re moval by rainfall, hundreds of thousands of invisible particles exist in each cubic inch of coast al air up to several miles' alti tude. These tiny invisible crys tals, by the way, are largely responsible for the blue color within the atmosphere "and the reason why ocean sky often is More than two million persons live in Mexico City, capital of Mexico. gnu I ' 1 J" J III TJ' Yes, we're still serving you with the finest in industrial supplies, and the best in prompt, efficient service!
