Minnesota Encouraging
Big 10 Rose Bowl Pact
' Champaign, III. - (UPD-Min-
nesota's athletic committee
give the Big Ten encourage
ment Saturday for resuming
the Big Ten - West Coast Rose
Bowl football pact but only
for a concession.
The University of Minneso
ta athletic committee voted
unanimously to ask its facul
ty group to approve signing
a new Rose Bowl contract.
But it demanded that in re
turn the Big Ten eliminate a
conference rule permitting in
dividual Big Ten schools to
accept Rose Bowl invitations.
If Minnesota's faculty group
upholds the committee action,
taken at the Big Ten meeting
here, the conference will have
to make a choice.
No Coniract
Big Ton teams now can
play in the Rose Bowl if in
vited by the Athletic Associa
tion of Western Universities.
But there no longer is a con
tract for automatic annual
competition of the Big Ten
and West Coast champions.
The Big Ten must act on
the Minnesota proposals .be
fore any contract negotiations
can begin with the AAWU
and should the West Coast re
fuse to sign a contract, then
Big Ten schools would be un
able to accept invitations.
It was uncertain whether
the entire Minnesota faculty
would approve the action of
Its athletic committee. In the
past the Gophers have oppos
ed the Rose Bowl on each
vote. And currently the Big
Ten can play on invitation
only because a 5-5 tie vole
failed to put out of the rule
book the permissive clause
under which such Invitations
could be accepted.

advantage at halflime,
Pace Slows
The pace slowed consider
ably in the second half as
both clubs fell off in shooting
percentages and the tall Bull
dogs from Sutherlin were par
ticularly ineffective from the
free throw stripe. For the
game Lakeview hit 9 of 13
foul tries while Sutherlin

Sutherlin attempted to rally
in the late stages but their
poor showing at the charity

was to Lakeview, started off
fasl, hilling their first four
field attempts. But, In the
end, the difference proved to
be a big third quarter offen
sive and some free tosses in
the waning minutes.
The spunky Wildcats from
Glide used a pressing defense
all the way after Henley's
early jump, and It almost paid
off In the end. After the Hor
nets tossed in 17 third quar
ter counters to push their lead
to 43-29, the Glide crew went
to work and rallied for 10
straight points to close the
gap to 46-39 with 3li minutes
left.
Bert Allbritlon, one of four
Hornets In double figures,
tossed in two from the foul
line with 3:01 remaining and

Ashland junior varsity,
Fullmer
Retains
NBA Title
Las Vegas -HOT- Gene Full
mer, NBA middle weight
champion, kept his title last
night with a rough, close
quarter mauling attack that
hammered out a unanimous
15-round decision over gallant
old Sugar Ray Robinson in
their fourth title fight.
It was Fullmer's second
victory over Robinson in
their four bouts. Sugar Ray
captured one and they fought
to a draw in the other.
Despite his 40 years, slen
der Robinson of New York
started off as if to give Full
mer the licking of his life in
the first two rounds. But
brawly, bull shouldered Gene
of West Jordan, Utah, weath
ered those two sessions and
came slamming back to stag
ger Sugar Ray in the third
round, knock him into the
ropes and continue to batter
him after a very weak ring
bell sounded.
Brute Force
That was the beginning oi
a triumph of brute force over
aging ring guile. Fullmer's
explosivcness saw Sugar Ray
battered into near helpless
ness at times and forced him
to hold on until the referee
could separate them.
Each fighter weighed the
same, 159-S4 pounds, for this
nationally-televised bout from
the handsomely-appointed Las
Vegas convention hall. The
crowd was unofficially esti
mated at 7,000 and the gate at
$130,000.
The crowd gave Robinson a
tremendous ovation after the
dramatic 15th round in which
he staggered Fullmer twice
with a left hook to the head
and then with a right to the
same target.
Gash Over Eye
Although Fullmer won the
unanimous decision, he was
much the worse for wear at
the finish. He was bleeding
from a gash over his left eye,
which was swollen almost
completely shut. He also was
bleeding from the nose and
his right check was highly
puffed.
Fullmer stretched his un
beaten streak to 15 straight
bouts, including two draws.
It was the 53rd victory in 59
professional bouts for the
Utah-strong boy who has suf
fered only four defeats.
Robinson suffered his ninth
defeat in 156 bouts, although
his . performance left little
doubt that the once great
Sugar Man's fancy - dancing
legs are somewhat gone.
He was unable to muster
enough stamina, despite the
use of oxygen in his corner
between rounds, to sustain a
damaging attack against
Gene.

The triumph came on the
heels of a 53 to 35 victory
over the same team on Thurs

a third game in the two-of-three
playoff for the district
laurels.
Prospect will open the state

13 Lead Changes
The Cougars were in front
over the last couple of min
utes of what was a back and
forth battle but Chiloquin was
in contention right up to the
final buzzer.
Lead in the fracas switched
13 times and the game had
seven ties before Prospect
went ahead to stay at 55 to 53
on a rebound bucket by Stan
Payne. A pair of free throws
by Bob Fitch, two by Craig
Gardner and one by Cliff
Chapman gave the Courgars
60 lo 53 gap with 46 seconds
left. Chiloquin's Sylvan
Crume put in a free heave
then a long shot and Norm
Jackson two giflers. It was
60 lo 58 with 20 seconds left.
Stan Payne got a free toss
chance with 16 seconds on the
clock. He missed but Craig
Gardner rebounded for the
Prospectors. With six seconds
left Payne was fouled again.
His toss did not get in and
Chiloquin retrieved the ball.
A Panther heaved a long pass
down the floor but the ball
was knocked out-of-bounds by
Fitch. Time ran out before
the Panthers had another
chance to score.
Craig Gardner Has 24
Craig Gardner had 24 points
for the night's high. Payne
collected 15 and Terry Gard
ner 11. For the Panthers Ed
Case and Crume each had 14
and Frank Heglund and Jack
son 13.
The Cougars had a two
pronged scoring threat with
Craig Gardner firing from the
base line and Payne gunning
from the outside.
Duane Payne, coach of the
championship club, pointed
out that the zone defense was
the first that the Cougars had
faced in a considerable time
and that it gave them "a cer
tain amount of difficulty."
The mentor said that his club
had hoped to employ a pres
ing defense in the last quarter
but that, because of four fouls
each on Terry and Craig
Gardner and Fitch, the plan
had to be abandoned. Had
the Cougars been able to
press, "winning might have
been easier," Payne remark
ed. The Panthers had the re
bounding advantage, putting
the ball back up again and
again in tries for points under
the offensive board. But the
Coucars were "fighting like
crazy" and kept the Chiloquin
scoring down.
Three Foul Out
Chiloquin lost three players
on fouls in the final period,
Heglund with five minutes
plus to play and Jackson and
Case in the closing seconds.
Craig Gardner had nine
points, Payne and Fitch each
two and Cliff Chapman one
for the Cougars in the crucial
last quarter.
Prospect fought back into
the ball game after a starting
jump of 7 to 0 by the Panthers
who led 17 to 15 at the close
of the first panel. Prospect
was on top 33 to 32 at half
time and 46 to 45 after three
cantos.
In the last quarter the Kla
maths County champs went
ahead 49 to 46 on buckets by
Crume and Jackson but Pros
pect's Jackson County champs
tied it up at 49-alI on a field
goal and free shot by Craig
Gardner. He added two more
baskets for a 53 to 49 gap but
Crume hit twice from the gift
stripe and once from the field
for 53-all with 2:54 to go.
Prospect first caught Chilo
quin in the game at 17-each
and kept its upsurge for a 25
to 19 lead. Chiloquin came
back with an eight point
splurge to go on top at 27 to
25.
It was see saw from there
with the Cougars once in
front 38 to 33.
Scoring difference was at
the free toss line. Chiloquin
made. 22 field buckets to 22
by the Cougars but Prospect
had a 20 to 14 margin in free
throws.
