The tourney starts Thursday and winds up Sat urday with three games each day. By RICK T ALLEY United Press International University of San Francis co's sophomore - laden Dons, without the veteran coaching wiles of Phil Woolpert in their corner, help launch the 1959-60 West Coast college basketball season Tuesday night against Stanford. Most experts predict question mark season for the Dons, at - best. Woolpert, whose USF teams rewrote the record - books while . winning two Bill Russell-tinted NCAA titles in 1955 and 1956, has decided to take a year's leave of absence because of poor health. Ross Giudice, Woolpert's assistant " for the last nine years, has taken over the head coaching reins. Giudice inherits a squad that dropped 20 of 26 games last year-and is missing All American can didate senior Fred La Cour, who has been dropped from the squad for cutting classes The Dons play their first home, game Saturday against New Mexico. Bears Play Alumni California's national cham pion Golden Bears, weakened by graduation but dangerous with .their great center Dar rail Imhoff, open their cam paign Tuesday on evening against a tough Cal alumni team. They follow up Friday night at Santa Barbara. Missing from Coach Pete Newell's five this season will be Denny Fitzpatrick, Al Buch and Bobby Dalton. Im hoff and Bill McCIintock along with Tany Gillis, Jerry Mann and Bobby Wendell, should form the' starting quintet Tuesday. It California hopes to re turn, to NCAA action this sea son it will have to be on an "at large" basis. The Pacific Coast conference, no longer exists and the NCAA fails to recognize the newly formed AAWU, as it feels five teams do not comprise a bonafide conference. Stanford, another member of the "Big Five," battles San Jose State on Thursday. UCLA and Southern Califor nia, ' Los Angeles entries in the new loop, open against each other Wednesday before hosting Santa Clara and Ken tucky in a pair of week end double headers. Washington, the AAWU fifth member, plays a week end series at Brigham Young. New Coast Independents Seattle university, a power ful coast independent that fashioned a 21-7 mark' last season, opens at home Thurs day with Utah State. Other independents this season, fol lowing demise of the PCC, will be Oregon, Oregon State, Washington State and Idaho. Oregon State battles Ha waii on Wednesday, Oregon travels to Fresno State for a week end pair and Washing ton State will play Gonzaga Tuesday. Idaho and Montana also clash Tuesday night. Santa Clara Coach Bob Feerick will turn loose what many think is his "best team in a decade" against Chico State Tuesday night. -The Broncos are tabbed as the class of the West Coast Ath letic conference. St. Mary's, last year's WCAC champions, opens on Tuesday with a visit from the Cal Aggies. San Jose State plays at home Tuesday in an opener against San Francisco State.

The $25,000 bevy of gifts Conerly received Sunday at Yankee, stadium included two brand new autos. The 38-year-old quarterback immediately went into high gear against one of his favorite targets, the Washington Redskins. Conerly has a little Choc taw Indian blood in him. May be it helps make his particu larly effective against the Redskins. Anyway, he threw two touchdown passes to Bob Schnelker, one to Kyle Rote and set up a scoring run by Alex Webster and a Pat Sum merall field goal. Conerly, who has thrown 33 of his 156 National Foot ball league touchdown passes against the Redskins, enjoyed his spree in the first 29 min utes. Then he sat down to rest for a dance in his honor while the Giants whizzed to a 45-14 triumph that clinched at least a tie for the Eastern division title. Two Games In Front The Giants now are two games in front with two to play. It's a virtual certainty each of them can count on at least a $3,500 slice of cham pionship game money and a new car if they want to match Conerly on the highway. New York got sterling help from the San Francisco For ty -Niners, also giving their HOCKEY NATIONAL LEAGUE United Press International The Toronto Maple Leafs are making believers out of all those "experts" who called their late season surge during the 1958-59 National Hockey league campaign "just one of those things." The high-flying Leafs, who battled the Boston Bruins to a 2-2 tie Saturday night that boosted them into a tie for second place, personally oust ed the Detroit Red Wings from that spot Sunday night with a 4-1 victory. The victory was Toronto's 11th in 22 games with six ties and boosted the Leafs two points ahead of Detroit and six up on the Bruins. Of course, the Leafs didn't pick up any ground on the front-running Montreal Cana- diens, but no one has been doing that this season. The Canadiens, who seem to keep right on rolling despite inju ries to key personnel, beat the Bruins. 4-2. In Sunday's "other game, Dean Prentice scored twice to give the New York Rangers a 2-2 tie with the Chicago Black Hawks. AMERICAN LEAGUE United Press International Lome (Gump) Worsley, sent down by the parent New York Rangers to their Springfield farm team in the American Hockey league a week ago, registered his first shutout of the season Sunday night when the Indians blasted the Buf falo Bisons, 5-0, at Buffalo. The little goalie turned aside 28 shots in completing perfect week end for the league-leading Tribe, which beat Cleveland, 3-2, Saturday night. In other Sunday action, third-period goals by Lome Davis and Dutch Reibel gave the Providence Reds a 4-2 vic tory over the Cleveland Bar ons, and the Hershey Bears tripped the Rochester Ameri cans, 3-1.

The Steelers, with Bob by Lane throwing four touch down passes, whipped the Philadelphia Eagles at Pitts burgh, 31-0. The, Browns and Eagles started the day only a game behind the Giants but virtual ly lost all hope by losing. Coach Paul Brown, whose Browns, invade New York next Sunday, told what the Forty-Niners had done to his team's Eastern chances in two words: "That's it." Colls Remain Tied The Baltimore Colts remain ed tied with San Francisco for the Western lead by down ing 'the Los Angeles Rams, 35-21, at home behind the passing of John Unitas. The Chicago Bears kept their Western hopes alive, remain ing a game behind the two leaders, by thumping the Chi cago Cardinals, 31-7, in Sun day's other game. Each of the 12 clubs has two more regu lar season games. New York is in a powerful position. It entertains the Browns before ending its regular campaign against the crippled Redskins at Washing ton. The Eagles play at Wash ington next Sunday and then entertain the Browns. Baltimore, the league title- holder, must perform like a champion and snap a jinx to retain the Western title. The Colts play next Saturday at San Francisco and the follow ing Saturday at Los Angeles. Baltimore has won only one of 14 games in those cities, The Forty-Niners end their season at home against the Green Bay Packers, 24-17, victors over the Detroit Lions in the Thursday game that opened the past week-end's action. The Bears finish at home against the Steelers and Lions. Palmer Victor In Palm Beach i West Palm Beach, Fla.-OJPD- Former Masters champion Arnold Palmer won his third tournament of the PGA trail Sunday when he copped the $15,000 West Palm Beach Open tourney in a three-way playoff. Palmer bested Pete Coop er and Jay Brewer in a four- hole playoff after all three finished with 291s. Palmer two-putted from 15 feet out for a par four on the decisive hole and both Cooper and Brewer went over par. The playoff was played m bitter cold weather that ham pered all types of shots. Palm er's 76 for the final round was by far his worst of the tourney and he conceded, "I putted and chipped very poorly."

John Brodie. subbine for injured quarterback Y. A. Tit- tie, led the Forty Nmers to three touchdowns in less than seven minutes during Sun day's 21-20 triumph. But Red Hickey, coach of the Califor nia club, reserved his highest praise for members of his de fensive unit-Charlie Krueger, Jerry Tubbs and Abe Wood son - and for Tommy Davis, his rookie kicker. Krueger, a rookie from Tex as A and M, was awarded the game ball for the linecrashing tactics that helped harrass Milt Plum, Cleveland's quar terback. Tubbs intercepted a Plum pass to set up Hugh McElhenny's 12-yard run with the winning touchdown. Woodson intercepted another pass to end a fourth period Cleveland threat. Davis aver aged 45 yards on eight punts. "The Turning Point" . v "The turning point was the interception by Tubbs," Rick ey said. . " ' ;' Tubbs' key steal followed another alert defensive play by Leo Nomellini. He crashed through and recovered a fum ble by Plum when the score was tied at 7all. Brodie fol lowed with a 21-yard touch down toss to J. D. Smith and the Forty Niners never were headed. Hickey said he was proud and a bit surprised - the way his team dumped the Browns after taking a 45-14 whipping from the Colts a week ago in Baltimore. The Forty-Ninera now end their regular season at home against the Colts next Satur day and against the Green Bay Packers Dec. 12. They go home tied with Baltimore for the Western lead and al most certainly ended Cleve land's hopes in the Eastern race. The Browns, along with the Philadelphia Eagles now trail the New York Giants by, two games with only two to play. i t" ' -i ' '"""" -L ' ' IM Century CU lf?l i p.

Cannon previously was the first draft choice of Houston of the new American Football league. It was the first time since 1952 that the Rams had first pick. That year, they had the bonus selection and took Billy Wade, Vanderbilt quarter back, The Rams and the Chicago Cardinals, each with 2-8 rec ords this season, tossed a coin for first choice with the Los Angeles team winning. The Cardinals then picked Geprge Izo, Notre Dame quar terback; and announced im mediately that he had signed for the coming season. Izo had been selected by New York of the- American league at their meeting 19 day's ago in Minneapolis. The Detroit Lions, with third choice, selected Johnny Robinson, another Louisiana State back, who previously had been tapped by Dallas for the new league. Richie Lucas, Penn State quarterback, who was the first choice of Buffalo in the American league was selected by the Washington Redskins. Lucas, an excellent passer, al so is highly rated as a defen sive back., . ; r" The Green Bay Packers selected Tom Moore, halfback and fullback from Vanderbilt previously taken by Dallas, and the Pittsburgh Steelers first choice was Jack Spikes, Texas Christian back who had been selected earlier by "Denver.
