NOW Ml'ol's Newest and Finest Automatic " Transmission Itrbuiltliiiir WATCH FOR OUR GRAND OPENING! MEDFORD TRANSMISSION 1910 Table Rock Road SfLLT SP 2 8368 AerOM From BIG V Mark.1 CHAMPSIE? Chiloquin By DON SWENSON Kansas City, Mo. - iL'PIi Strategy which misfired in the final two seconds of regulation play may have cost Ohio State's Buckeyes the 1961 NCAA basketball champion ship. With the score tied, 61-61, and two seconds remaining on the clock, Ohio State called time out with the ball under the Buckeye basket. Ohio State captain Larry Siegfried passed deep to John Havlicek, who again called time out -this time with one second re maining. Ohio State strategy called for a high arching pass in from Havlicek. The ball was supposed to hit the rim of the basket so All-Amcrican Jerry Lucas could tip it in. The ball hit the rim, but Lucas wasn't there. He had been unable to get around 6-9 Cincinnati center Paul Hogue and the ball bounded away free as the buzzer sounded, Cincinnati scored nine points in the overtime to nail down its first national title, 70-65. . Tags Game "Stupid" Ohio State Coach Fred Tay lor called it a "stupid game." He said the Buckeyes could have won "the stupid game" if they had taken advantage of their leads, and he cited that they were ahead by as much as seven points in the first half "and later we led by as much as five." But for Cincinnati Coach Ed Jucker, in his first season as head man after seven years as an assistant, the game was the greatest thrill of my life. Jucker singled out guards Tony Yates and Carl Bouldin. Their outside shooting and tremendous defensive work distorted Ohio State's pattern, and it (Ohio State) wasn't able to get into its regular offense." Yates sank three free throws in the overtime period, and Bouldin contributed 11 points in the first eight min utes of the second half to fire up the Cincinnati attack. Paces Bearcats The 43-year-old Cincinnati coach, who said his entire team played great ball, also heaped individual praise on burly Bob Wiesenhahn. The husky, stalking forward led Bearcat scorers with 17 points, was their leading rebounder with nine, and held Ohio State forward John Havlicek to one field goal. Not only did Cincinnati de throne Ohio State as national champion, but it snapped the Buckeye's 32 game winning streak. In the process, Cincin nati extended its winning skein to 22 games. Celtics Grab East- Playoffs United Press International The world of sports has un dergone many changes recent ly, but the situation is normal in the National Basketball as sociation where the Boston Celtics have won the Eastern division playoffs for the fifth straight year. Boston whipped the Syra cuse Nationals, 123-101, Sun day afternoon to clinch the best - of - seven scries, four games to one. The Celtics can now sit back and await the outcome of the Western di vision final playoffs between the St. Louis Hawks and Los Angeles Lakers to determine their opponent in the cham pionship round. The Hawks and Lakers are deadlocked at two games each following St. Louis' 118-117 victory Saturday, and their scries resumes tonight at St. Louis. A small crowd at Chiloquin Saturday saw the Medford PAL club boxers pound out impressive wins over the top battlers of the Chiloquin Box ing club. Since all victories were unanimous decisions over more experienced boxers, each of whom had taken part in more than 20 bouts, the Medford PAL boxers again showed themselves as one of the top notch amateur boxing clubs in Oregon. John Winningham, PAL club featherweight, copped the duke over the highly tout ed Bert Farris of Chiloquin, in a bout that was sizzling fast throughout the three rounds. While Farris had a slight edge in infighting, the heavier guns of John Win ningham repeatedly staggered Farris and made him hold on. It was a weary Chiloquin boy who tottered to his corner at the final bell. Jerry Victor The seml-wlndup found the other Winningham brother, Jerry, drop a Southern Ore gon Golden Gloves novice champion, Leon Weeks, for eight count in the first round to win his 145 pound bout by a very wide margin, Leon though a shifty boxer, used his legs to good advantage as he slipped and weaved try ing to escape Jerry's punches. Enough of them, however, found their mark to stagger Weeks repeatedly. Slugfest that caught the crowd's fancy saw John L. Sullivan, 160-pounder of PAL, spot a Chiloquin Indian, Enis Hershan, 10 pounds and then methodically chop him to pieces, dropping Hershan twice in the second round for a short count. Sullivan pum meled his heavier opponent about the ring. Hershan's ring savvy kept him from being counted out. Frison Shines Another PAL club battler to shine Saturday evening was Paul Frison who has now won four in a row. Going against a more shifty and ex perienced rival, Bob Ulam, who was easily the crowd's favorite. Frison's unorthodox style befuddled Ulam, who joined the crowd in smiling over Frison's seemingly awk ward style, until he found himself sitting on the seat of his pants peering up while the referee started to count over him. Jumping up, he shifted to a southpaw stance and then Frison took charge for the remainder of the 130 bout. Another 130 - pound bout saw John Glogowski, PAX club, take a close decision over Ozzie Gallagher of Chik quin. Gallagher, a swinging brawler, started out as if to end the fight with one punch, but Glogowski, putting in fast combinations when they were needed and keeping Gallagher on balance the entire match, showed that he will attract the attention of Medford fight tans in the future. The curtain raiser bout and the next two bouts were lost by PAL club battlers to heav ier and more experienced boxers. Gregg Spaulding lost to Arnie Gaalagher in the opener, Ricky Orr lost on a split decision to Ray Debortli. and Buddy Mitchell, PAL, l'rt to Lee Chase of Chiloquin.

McAndrewi Road SP 2-5271 By JOE SARGIS United Press International There's an old baseball saw about how the pitchers are supposed to be ahead of the hitters in the spring, but don't try to sell it to the San Fran cisco Giants. Sunday, for instance, they belted five Chicago Cubs' pitchers for 19 hits, including five homers, for a 15-10 vic tory. It was the Giants' fourth straight win and gave them a total of 60 hits and 48 runs for the stretch. Rookie Tom Haller, who is battling holdovers Hobie Lan drith and Bob Schmidt, both light hitters, for the No. 1 catching assignment, was the hero of the latest uprising. The former Big Ten quarter back from Illinois, who isn't even listed on the San Fran cisco spring roster, banged out two of the homers to boost his average to an even .500. Hits Long Ball Haller has collected 10 hits in 20 at-bats and only two of his blows have been singles. His other eight hits include four homers, two doubes and two triples. Willie Mays, Orlando Cepe-. da and pitcher Jack Sanford were the other home run hit ters for the Giants, who now have hit a total of 18 in 15 spring games. And Willie McCovey, who has been told by manager Al Dark to forget all about last year, collected three hits in three times at bat to push his batting average to a gaudy .435. Johnny Podres. the Los An geles Dodgers' ace lefthander, became the club's first pitcher to go the route. The 28-year-old veteran spun a neat five hitter as the Dodgers beat the Baltimore Orioles, 2-0. Chisox Beat Bucs Sore -armed Curt Raydon, attempting to make the grade j again with the world cham pion Pittsburgh Pirates, walked two batters following a single by Billy Goodman in the eighth inning and arl Torgenson promptly, singled in two of the runners for a 2-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox. . Frank Bauman hurled bril liantly to become the first White Sox pitcher to go sev en innings. Turk Lown fin ished up and pick up the victory.
