Souchalc Leads At 54 Holes San Diego, CalLt.-aTB-Ham-handed Mike Souchak, play ing a dainty game around the greens, forged into the 54 hole lead in the $20,000 San Diego Open golf tournament Saturday as he shot a three-under-par 69 for a three-day total of 202. Hitting only one birdie on the par-five holes, where hij tremendous power is sup posed to give him an edge, Souchak nevertheless came in with two birdies to take a one-stroke lead over Bob Rosburg of Palo Alto, Calif., who had a 203 total after his 10-foot putt for a tie hung on the lip of the 18th hole; and Dave Ragan, Chattanoo ga, Tenn., who had a fine 66 today. While Doug Sanders, the leader at the halfway mark, faded to a fat 73 and a 205 total, Souchak was living up to advance predictions that the long hitters would take this course apart. He now has rounds of 65, 68 and 69. Rosburg has 68-66-69 and Ragan 69-68-66. "I played well out there today," said Souchak. "But can you imagine getting only one birdie on those easy par five holes? I three-putt the next one, hit a trap on an other and chipped badly on still another. Takes Two Birdies - "But I did some nice work around the' greens and came up with an eight-footer for a birdie on the 10th and a 10 f ooter for another bird on the 13th." , Muscular Mike's nines were J4-35. Rosburg was hot through the first 15 holes getting down putts from 12 and 15 feet on the last nine, although he took a bogie six on the 10th when he took three on Pels Nudge Crater 57-54 in Hoop Tilt Central Point Fans had various versions of the con fused final moments of the Crater high - Klamath Falls Southern Oregon conference basketball game here Friday night. But a couple of things were certain at the final buzzer of the rough- spirited hectic struggle Klamath was in front on the scoreboard and in the scorebook 57 to 54 and Crater's Comets had played their finest game of the sea son. What added the greatest din to the pandemonium was a field goal swish by the Com et's Chuck Turner in the final minute of the fracas. The shot was diallowed after officials' deliberation because of a foul the edge of the green. He had nines of 33-36. Ragan had an eagle in his collection, getting home in two on the par-five tMrd hole and sinking the long putts. He finished off the fine round with a birdie on the last hole, a 210-yard part-three, by rolling in one from eight feet. Joe Campbell, the bride groom, from Knoxville, Tenn., had a fine rbund of 68s for 204. At 205 Hiere was a four way tie between Marty Fur- gol, Lemont, 111.; Bill Casper, Apple Valley, Calif.; Bo Win- uiger, Odessa, Tex., and San ders. Furgol had the best round of the day, a 64-one stroke off the course record. He was eight under par after 12 holes, then parred in the rest of the way. At 206 came Jackie Burke, Houston, Tex., with a 67 to day, and Bob Duden, Oswego, Ore., the first-day co-leader, who had a 70. Comet Grapplers Defeat Ashland Aggregation 41-9 Central Point-Crater high wrestlers chalked up an over whelming 41 to 9 victory over Ashland here Friday.' It was the second win of the season for the Comets over the Grizzlies. Margin was closer in the earlier meeting. Crater won eight of the 12 counting matches and drew In three others.

Cratesr Applies Press Crater with a fiery full pressing game came from 11 points back in the last six minutes of the hassle to al most upset the Pelicans. Klam ath entered the final stanza ahead 41 to 33 and built its advantage to 48 to 37 before the Comets launched their up ward climb, headed by the gunning of Allen. Klamath was on the long end of 11 to 9 at the quarter and 28 to 27 at the half. But Crater jumped to a 29 to 28 count as the second half start ed and the game was knotted at 32-all before the Pels moved to their third quarter command. Work of Chuck Turner, John Burns and Wayne Allen under the backboards against the taller Pels served to keep the Comets in the game. Turn er cleared the board of re bounds on 15 occasions. Peterson rolled in 27 chalk ers for KF and was the only member of his crew to hit in double figures. Allen had 13 points, Burns 11 and Turner 10 for the Comets.

The 34-year-old Hall, who l as been Blaik's No. 1 assist ant for the past three seasjns, thus becomes one of the youngest head coaches evei put in charge of the Cadets. Hall, the unanimous choice of the five-man athletic board at West Point, signed a three- year contract at an undis closed salary. The board had interviewed candidates week- long. The appointment was announced by Lt. Gen. Garri son H (Gar) Davidson, super intendents at the academy. Hall said he would retain Blaik's staff of assistants, in cluding Tom Harp, Charles Gottfried, Bill Gunlock and Frank Lauterbur. Another aide will be chosen prior to the start of spring practice, Hall said. He was chosen for the job from among three outstanding West Point alumni who are all active in coaching. The others under consideration had been Bobby Dobbs, head coach at Tulsa, and Johnny Green, who played guard on the same teams with Hall and who now is an assistant coach at Tulane. Blaik, one of the nation's most successful coaches, an nounced on Jan. 13 that he was resigning to accept "one of several opportunities eith er in television or business." He will leave the job on his 62nd birthday, Feb. 15. Hall is regarded as a go getter. He was the first to apply for the much-sought Army job filing a formal ap plication the day after Blaik retired last month. Received Trophy A native of Parsons, Kan., the Cadet's new head coach also participated in basket ball and tennis- during his un dergraduate days at the Point. Upon his graduation in 1945, he received the Army A. A. trophy, presented annually to the man who rendered "the most valuable service to ath letics during his Cadet ca reer." Hall served four years in the infantry and held the rank of 1st Lieutenant at the time he was separated from the service in 1949. Then he launched his coaching career, serving as an assistant coach at Purdue, New Hampshire and Florida before returning to the Point in 1956. In addition to his duties as defensive backfield coach un der Blaik, Hall also served as chief scout for the Cadets dur ing the last three seasons and spent most of his weekends "sping" at Navy games. Hall was a member of Army's 1944 National Cham pions team that went through the season undefeated and un tied. Although Blanchard and Davis were on the same team, they did not play in the same backfield wjth Hall. The Ca dets had such a wealth of talent that season, Blaik "platooned" two offensive backfields. The closest any opponent came to beating Army that year was Navy, which succumbed 23-7. The Cadets beat Notre Dame, 59-0. SKI CONDITIONS Mt.
