Three-Tilt Lead Kept By Broncs By United Press International The league-leading Lewis ton Broncs held on to their three game advantage . over second place Wenatchee in Northwest league play Tues day. Ernie Sadler scattered eight hits to pick up this third via tory without defeat as Lewis- ton downed Tri-City 5-3. We natchee took a 5-2 win over Salem in a rain-shortened five-inning contest in the Sen ators' home park. Rain washed out the sched uled contest between Yakima and Eugene. Two . booming triples by Tony Santino made the differ ence in the Broncs' victory. Santino's second clout pushed across the eventual winning tally for the winners in 'the seventh inning. A three-run double off the bat of Hickey Little john in the second inning provided the winning margin for the Chiefs.

Basketball school, that is. Because the big thing with Big Wilt right now is big money. And he feels the only way he can hit the pro basketball jackpot is to spend a year pre paring himself in the pro-type game. He'll do this on a 160-game tour ala the Harlem Globe trotters, forming his own teams one Negro and one white for more than a year's play in South America and then across the United States. "I need money," says the towering 21-year-old son of a $60-a-week handyman. "I was at a standstill the way the game was played at Kansas. I've got to develop the shoot ing and running part of my game. Then I can ask the pros for $25,000 a year." Remains Insistent Wilt still stubbornly insists that all he received at Kan sas, despite continued charges that he received as much as $30,000 for going there de spite good offers from schools in every section of the coun try, was board, room, tuition and $15 a month for inciden tals. The NCAA put him through a four-hour tape-recorded investigative session and when it was overione of his questioners said: ? "It was nice talking to you, but I don't believe a word of it." Wilt gets a bit touchy when asked how come, then, ,that he can afford a new. car. - "I've worked summers and traded up from a $700 car I bought my junior year in high school," he snaps. Chamberlain has been a giant, and a well-coordinated one, ever since his high school days. As an example he high jumped six feet, eight and three-quarter inches, ran the 440 and was a shot-putter. He also began weight-lifting sev eral years ago to fill himself out. He has." , 1 Is Well Proportioned The streamlined seven-foot er weighs 245 pounds and wears but a 17-inch collar de spite the 39-inch sleeves. All of this is carried around by size 14 shoes. Looking back on his college career, Chamberlain asserts with quiet emphasis that he "didn't eniov it." "My big problem was keep ing my temper." he explains "Colorado and Missouri were 1 ' I In Sorts U W 1 tlfff No Interest or Carrying Charge No Hidden Charges You can own a year-around vacation spot all your own.

Good Choice of Lots Title Insurance Furnished No SEE "BOB' By OSCAR FRALEY Sports Writer United Press the chief tormenters but they weren't the only wrongdoers. Too many teams tried to incite me to fight or to foul out. They spent a lot of time try ing to unnerve me. Then, too, the slow-down tactics ruined the game in college, which badly needs a time limit on possession such as the pros have." Chamberlain often was guarded by as many as three and sometimes four men but doesn't think this would hap pen in pro ball. "College 'basketball, it seems, he mused, "has done all it can to hurt the tall man. It can't do much more unless it puts the baskets on the floor." 2nd Spot Taken By Motor Haven Motor Haven motel team of Medford rolled into fourth place last week end in the women's fourth class in the Albany All-Coast tournament.
