Newland. who is 35, said his duties will included those of cross countrv coach and assist ant to Bud Robertson, who will be head track mentor.

Hawks Meet Celtics in NBA Final Minneapolis, Minn. U.R) It will be the St. Louis Hawks against the Boston Celtics in the final round of the National Basketball Association playoffs, opening in Boston on Saturday. The Hawks completed, a 3-0 sweep of the Western Division finals Monday night when they beat the Minneapolis Lakers, 143-135, in a stormy, two-overtime tussle that ended in a pro test by the Lakers. The Celtics previously completed a similar sweep in the east. The Hawks, who won the first two games of the best-of-five western finals on their home court, were tied with the Lak ers, 114-114, at the end of the regulation time and 131-131 at the end of the first overtime. Then they outscored the Lakers, 12-4, in the second extra session. Pettit was the Hawks' high scorer with 35 points,- but indi vidual game honors went to rookie Bob Leonard of the Lak ers with 42. League officials at the game disallowed the Lakers' protest. Pasadena, Calif. U.PJ Hurl er John Carmichael was slated to start for the San Diego Padres against Sacramento today. Cloyd Boyer was scheduled to start for the Solons. who lost to Portland by a 7 to 4 margin Monday. Education from University of Oregon. Newland reported that North Eugene High school opens it will have 300 students, all sopho mores. It will be two more years before the school will have a senior class and be ready for full scale prep athletic compe tition. In accepting the Eugene job. Newland turned down eui offer to become head track coach at San Jose State college. Five West Coasters On Boston Club Los Angeles when it comes to finding basketball talent, Bos ton seems to go to geographical extremes. Of the ten men who compose the great Boston Celtics team, five are west coasters and five are easterners. Boston faces the Major League All-Stars of the National Bas ketball association in a game at Oregon State college's Gill Coli seum on April 20. Very often in practice sessions, the Celtics put on their own-ver sion of an East-West all-star game. On the "western" squad are guards Andy Phillip of Santa Monica, Calif., and Bill Shar man, whose hometown is Porter- vile, Calif. At center, there is the fabulous Bill Russell of San Francisco. Jim Lostcutoff of Palo Alto, Calif., and Jack Nichols, a Washington graduate from Ever ett, Wash., are the cornermen. Eastern Five The "eastern" contingent con sists of Bob Cousy, New York City and Holy Cross; Frank Ram sey of Kentucky fame; Arnie Risen of Ohio State and Roches ter, N.Y.; Dick Hemric of Wake Forest and Jonesville, N.C., and Tom Heinsohn of Union City, N.J. and Holy Cross. Boston has always had more than its share of western basket ball players. Remember Freddy Scolari of San Francisco fame? And Don Barksdale, the former UCLA flash? Gene Conley of Washington? Frank (Apples) Ku- delka of St. Mary's? And, Red Red Morrison of Idaho? As soon as Uncle Sam releases K. C. Jones, Russell's feeder and teammate at San Francisco, from the Army, the Boston club will have- another outstanding west coast player. When the National Basketball association was first formed, al most all -of the players came from the east or mid-west. Times have changed, however, and now western colleges provide a major portion of the talent. Boston U.R) The NCAA Ice hockey rules committee has rec ommended that the 1958 nation al championships be held at the University of Minnesota, March 13-15. HOCKEY By UNITED PRESS The Stanley Cup playoffs hockey's world series gets un derway on two fronts tonight with the New York Rangers en tertaining the Montreal Cana- diens and the Boston Bruins visiting -the Detroit Red Wings. Montreal and Detroit both are heavy favorite to win their best-of-seven semi-final series and thus set up their fourth straight meeting in the title round. The Canadiens won the Na tional Hockey League's regular season championship and the Stanley Cup in a breeze last sea son but finished second behind the Red Wings in the recently concluded pennant race. So the "Flying Frenchmen" hope to gain their revenge in the play offs. Montreal UR) Gordie Howe of the Detroit Red Wings today was officially acclaimed as the National Hockey League scoring champion for the 1956-57 season. In winning the title for an unprecedented fifth time, Howe wound up the regular season competition Sunday night with 89 points, based on 44 goals, also tops in the league, and 45 as sists in 70 games. Howe beat out his left wing ljnemate, Ted Lindsay, by four points. Chicago Cubs Have Sights On Progress, Not Miracles (This is the seventh in a ser ies on the 1957 prospects of major league clubs). By UNITED PRESS The pennant - winning Provi dence Reds will play nost to third-place Rochester and fourth place Hershey will invade second-place Cleveland tonight in the first games of the American Hockey League playoffs.' The winners in the four-of-seven series will then meet in another best-of-seven to deter mine the Calder Cup winner. Providence, last year's cham pion, again will rule as favorite since in the 20 past playoff se ries the regular season winner has gone on to win the cup on lo occasions. LITTLE FAITH IN HORSE London '(U.R) British odds makers apparently have little faith in Monkey Wrench, an American-owned horse, winning Friday's Grand National Steeple chase. They are quoting 100-1 odds on the horse, who repre sents Mrs. J. F. Bryce of New ,York. The U.S. has the largest total oyster production in the world. By BILL McFARLAND Mesa, Ariz. -1- (U.R) Reno vated from top to bottom, the Chicago Cubs set out this season on a long-range project to climb from the bottom to the top of the National league. Bob Scheffing, new manager of the club, says: "We have set our sights on progress, not mir acles, this year . . . The main thing being to get out of eighth place." ."We fixed two very weak spots when we acquired two capable catchers and a hard-hitting third baseman," said Schef fing, pointing to Charlie Silvera and Ray Katt, behind the plate, and Ray Jablonki, at third. Hurler Prospects Good "Our pitching should be pret ty good," Scheffing said, .and listed veteran Bob Rush, the six foot, five-inch right-hander, and bonus baby Myron Moe Drabow sky as two potential "big win ners." In addition, the staff includes Jim Bronsam (5-9), Don Kaiser (4-9), Turk Lown (9-8) and Vito Valentinetti (6-4), all with the Cubs last year, along with Jack Collum and Tom Poholsky, ac quired in a deal with St. Louis. Scheffing believes he has the best keystone combination in the business in home-run hitting Er nie Banks at shortstop, and Gene Baker, who also can hit the long ball, at second base. The only problem is that Banks has a chronic sore arm and may be switched to first base. First sacker Dee Fondy hit .300 and .309 in 1952 and 1953, but has not been close to that figure since. Jablonski, because of his runs-batted-in record, probably wiU get the call at third base, al though George Freese, up from Los Angeles, is given a good chance to stick with the club. Outfield Troublesome The outfield appears to offer Scheffing the most trouble. He needs heavy hitting at those pos itions, and the record shows he may not have it.. Walt Moryn, the 223-pound ex-Dodger, appears to be the only "cinch" in the outfield. The big right fielder hit .285, blast ed 23 home runs and' drove in 67 runs for the Cubs last year. Scheffing has hopes that Jim Bolger,"- who had a -great year att Los Angeles hitting .326, in cluding 28 homers and. 147 RBI's can take over either left or cen terfield. Gale Wade, a speedy flychaser with three previous major league tries, is in center field at present. Beavers Top Solons, 7-4 Fullerton, Calif. AS.K Port land goes after its seventh win of the spring season today when it invades the exhibition train ing diamond of the San Fran cisco Seals. Portland defeated the Sacra mento Solons, 7 to 4, in Pasa dena, Monday with a 13 hit at tack, paced by Ernie Johnson and Ed Mickelson who each got three hits.
