Pro Rules
Adoption
Argued
San Francisco-IUTO-The con
troversial issue of . whether
colleges should adopt profes
sional basketball rules raged
with coaches Red Auer
bach aud Phil Woolpert tak
ing to the stump.
Auerbach, coach of the Jun
keting Boston Celtics of the
National Basketball associa
tion, declared in Seattle that
the colleges should adopt
some version of the profes
sional rules.
Woolpert, an avowed disci
ple of defense who coaches
the University of San Fran
cisco, said in San Francisco
that the pros would be better
off if they played the college
rules.
Auerbach blasted the "mo
notonous type of ball control
many coaches teach. Woolpert
said that pro basketball is a
"prostituted version of the
game."
Both coaches gave their
views without knowing what
the other had said.
Under the professional
rules, a team has to take a
shot within 24 seconds after
getting the ball or lose it; a
game is broken down into
four 12-minute quarters; the
zone defense is barred and a
player is allowed six person
al fouls.
"When the zone defense is
prohibited the game loses one
of its prime functions," Wool
pert said. "And they don't
need to play that extra eight
minutes."
Woolpert added that Bill
Russell, his USF star who now
is with the Celtics "looked
drawn" when the Celtics were
playing the Lakers here Sun
day night.
"If you saw some strategy
out there Sunday, I sure
didn't," Woolpert said. "The
pros simply aren't allowed to
employ any because of the
rules."
"We put on a basketball
show with the finest players
in the country," Auerbach
said. ."The fans see 48 minutes
of continuous basketball."
"I thought it was absurd
basketball to see a man shoot
with nobody under the basket
to handle the, rebounds,"
Woolpert said. "I think that
sort of an exhibition is a
prostituted version of the
game."

Texas Christian
Up SW Lead
The word was out before
the season to watch Texas
Christian - but how are the
Horned Frogs' Southwest con
ference opponents going to do
it without telescopes.
Coach Buster Brannon's
veteran squad-which finished
fast but not fast enough to
win the Southwest basketball
crown last season surged
two games in front in the tra
ditionally tough circuit Tues
day night when it beat Rice,
59-52. The Frogs, the nation's
11th ranked college basket
ball team, now have a 4-0
conference slate and an 11-2
overall record.
The early two-game lead in
the conference represents the
Frogs' best start in years and
makes them heavy favorites
to win their first league title
since 1953. Southern Metho
dist dropped into a multiple
tie for second place Tuesday
night when it lost to Baylor
70-53.
Quinn Takes
Philly Post
Milwaukee, "Wis.-flJPD-Mon-ey
was an inducement, but
complete authority over the
last place Philadelphia Phil
lies seemed today to be the
main reason why General
Manager John Quinn bolted
the National league cham
pion Milwuakee Braves.
Quinn apparently felt he
was no longer boss of the
Braves, whom he had devel
oped as a pennant winner
three times and world cham
pion once since becoming gen
erald manager in 1946. Before
him they hadn't won a pen
nant in three decades. Under
him they missed the first divi
sion only once.
Quinn replaces Roy Hamey,
who moved to the New York
Yankees an assistant general
manager. Besides replacing
Hamey as general manager,
Quinn will be vice president
and direct the Phillies farm
system.

Earl Blaik
Quits Army
Glenn Davis, Earl Blaik's
greatest player, and Eddie
Erdelatz, his greatest rival,
paid equal tribute today to the
retiring Army football coach.
Blaik has resigned, effect
ive Feb. 15, and plans to quit
coaching for good.
"I've always thought a great
deal of him as a coach and as
a person," said ail-American
halfback Davis in Los An
geles. "The Army certainly is
going to miss him."
"Not only West Point but
all of football. will miss Red
Blaik," said Erdelatz, whose
Navy teams held a 5-3 edge
over Blaik's Army teams.
"Blaik contributed much to
the game and to the boys who
played under him. He also
did a fine job for the service
by helping turn out fine of
ficers as well as athletes."
