GRELLE WON'T RUN New York (UPD The with drawal of University of Ore gon star Jim Grelle from Sat urday's National AAU indoor track championships leaves Phil Coleman of Chicago and Ed Moran of the New York AC as the favorites. Grelle withdrew because of an in jured Achilles tendon, Dan Ferris, honorary secretary of the AAU announced. North American Skiing cham pionships here a year ago and we all figured that would prove a good trial run. And give them plenty of time to correct mistakes and set eve rything right. "But apparently they learned nothing. Things have gotten worse instead of bet ter." Here are some of the chief complaints, few newspapers would have enough space to list them all: -That the three ice rinks were badly handled with the result 'that speed skaters, fig ure skaters -and the hockey teams did not have ample workout time or conditions. Each group claimed that the other was favored. -The parking situation within reasonable walking distance of the Olympic sites had gotten to the stage that not even top officials were allowed in almost empty parking lots in the immediate area. ' Eating Facilities Crowded -Nothing has been done to keep half of the ice from the main arena from melting un der the winter sun, prevent ing athletes from using half of the arena from about 11 a.m. on each day. -Eating facilities were taxed beyond capacity. The dining rooms for Olympic athletes and officials are so jammed that persons with proper admission credentials are turned away during meal hours. -Plans and regulations change so rapidly new ones are in effect before anyone can learn what the old ones were. At first all of the complaints were brushed off as one of those things that usually oc cur in big international sports events. The early complaints of the foreign officials and athletes were discounted on the grounds that they would complain no matter what the conditions. Torch Arrives But when U.S. athletes and officials joined the parade some figured that maybe changes would be made for Uncle Sam was talking now. But that didn't help either. So with the opening of the games only 24 hours away, the only sure bet seemed to be that all the confusion sur rounding the games would in crease rather than diminish. Through it all the 700 ath letes from 30 nations contin ued to work out. There was a world and an Olympic record broken in speed skating Tues day, but neither will count because it was not actual competition. The Olympic torch arrived in the valley late Tuesday, 20 students from the Truckee Tahoe High School at nearby Truckee, carrying it in on the final lap on its long trip from Morgedal, Norway. It will be kept in the village until it is taken into the Olympic arena on Thursday when Vice Presi dent Richard Nixon will of ficially open the games. Western Union To Serve Press Western Union has planned the most elaborate and up-to-date telegraphic installation to serve the press covering the VIII Winter Olympics at Squaw Valley, since the first games were held at Chamonix, France in 1924, according to Claire Douglas Jr., Western Union's Medford manager. Capable of transmitting! over 100,000 words daily, the fa cilities will enable the 500 man press corps covering the Olympics to flash news of the competitions directly to their offices via Western Union's high-speed press network and nationwide system of auto matic mesage centers. The telegraph company has installed for the first time at a major sports event its "Wire fax" (public facsimile) service, making possible direct trans mission of news by facsimile from Squaw Valley to the five city wirefax network serving New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago and Wash ington, D. CAThe wirefax in stallation will enable writers covering 'the games to have sent, the the push of a button, stories in the exact form in which they are written, or even diagrems illustrating the events- and charts or box scores of results. In addition to the wirefax facility, a special teleprinter network has been provided, directly connecting the three Olympics press centers with points throughout the United States. RAIL MILEAGE ' Chicago-Texas and Illinois lead in the number of miles of railway trackage. Texas has 15,355 miles and Illinois has 11,385. Indoor Net Event Set New York-IUPD-Dick Savitt of New York, the top-seeded domestic player, and Austrail ia's Neil Fraser, the top-seeded foreigner, both have easy pickings in the National In door Tennis championships' opening round Friday. Savitt meets Bob Baker of Manhasset, N.Y., and Fraser faces John Wylde of New York. Savitt, a former indoor title-holder who earned the top seeding by going all the way to the final in last year's tournament before losing to Alex Olmedo, may have trou ble with his probable second round opponent, Mike Davies of England, whom he is sched uled to meet Friday night. Davis Cupper Barry Mackay of Dayton, O., seed ed second, also figures to have an easy time with his first round opponent, Gerald Al leyne of Brooklyn. Ron Holm berg of Brooklyn is seeded third among the domestic players and Earl Buchholz, Jr., of St. Louis fourth. The championships, which will be held at the Seventh Regiment Armory, will have a distinct international flavor with seven different countries represented among the 32 players. Indians Have Three Unsigned United Press International Frank Lane signed one, sold ! one and sat tight with two, but those two can have a lot to do with whether Cleveland fin ishes one-two this year. The player Lane signed was catcher John Romano, ob tained this winter from the White Sox for whom he hit .294 last season. Romano's signing left only three Cleveland players who still hadn't agreed to terms and Lane cut that list to two by selling second baseman Jim Baxes to San Diego of the Pacific Coast League. Only unsigned Indian play ers now are outfielder Rocky Colavito and pitcher Gary Bell, a 16-game winner last season. Lane says he expects Bell to sign a contract any day but he's not so confident in the case of Colavito, who earned approximately $28,000 in 1959 and is said to be ask ing $45,000 this year. The world champion Dodg ers announced the signing of three pitchers and now have a total of 30 players under contract. Veteran reliever Johnny Klippstein was one of the three to sign and the other two were rookies Ford Young and Scott Breeden. General Manager John Quinn of the Phillies managed to satisfy shortstop Joe Koppe over the telephone. Hoop Arbiter Still Undecided Salem -WPD- Al Lightner said Tuesday night that he will not make up him mind whether to emit refereeing un til the basketball season is over. The story was circulating earlier that Lightner said he had definitely decided to give up refereeing. He said this was not true. Lightner said he spoke to a group of Sportswriters at a luncheon in Spokane on Monday. He said he under stood his talk was an off the. record thing and told them he was "seriously considering giving up refereeing after this season." 1960 Super Deluxe 4 Door Sedan Including Heater, ' Reclining ' Seats, White Wall Tires, Electric Swipers, 4 Speed Transmission. $1795 $395 Down 33 So.

Indiana came close in 1953, losing only one of 18 league games and climaxing its sea son by winning the NCAA championship. Ohio State, though, is given a better than even chance of achieving an unbeaten league record this season. The Buck eyes, with sophomore Jerry Lucas dropping in 21 points, recorded their 10th straight conference victory Monday night by whipping Illinois, 109-81. Coach Fred Taylor's boys have only four league games remaining on their schedule against Michigan State, Wis consin, Indiana and Minneso ta in that order. Their meeting with Indiana at Bloomington Feb. 29 should decide the con ference championship-if the Buckeyes don't clinch matters before then.
