Dean Look Receiving Opportunity United Press International The door of opportunity swung wide open for one former college star trying to make the grade as a pro T quarterback but it may be closing for the last time on another. Dean Look, former Michi gan State star, is the fellow getting the opportunity while Lee Grosscup, former Univer sity of Utah ace, is the chap on whom time may be running out. Look was acquired by the New York Titans of the Amer ican league in a trade which sent 260-pound tackle S i d Youngelman to the Buffalo Bills. The New York Giants of the National league, mean while, asked waivers on Gross cup, who during three seasons with the team has been over shadowed by veteran T-aces Charlie Conerly and Y. A. Tittle. How Did He Win Bout? Manila - ll'Pli - It won't be long before lightweight cham pion Carlos Ortiz is nicknam ed "Mr. Questionmark." Why? Because after each of his two most recent vic tories the fans who saw him asked, "How did he do it?" That's the question they nsked after Ortiz won the title from Joe Brown at Las Vegas, Nov., last April 21 and that's the question they were asking here today after his 10-round decision over 30-year-old Arthur Persley in Wednesday night's non-title match. The officials scored it for Ortiz unanimously - two by 48-45 and one by 47-45 - but .the crowd of 30,000 booed the result. Ortiz clipped Persley Several times during the bout Jwith swift left jabs and pun ishing body blows but appear ed to absorb more punishment "over the 10-round distance. Davis Suffers Blood Disorder 1 Chicago - IUPH - Ernie Davis, J 961 Heisman Trophy winner nd one of the most prized Jplayers ever to come out of follege football, has been ptricken with a blood disorder and h i s professional career "was in doubt today. Cleveland had been counl Jng on Davis to join this sea son with another three-time Syracuse university AIl-Amer-iran. Jim Brown, to give the Srowns one of I he hardest running tandems in profes sional football. Davis was hospitalized in suburban Evanslnn where he had been working out with the College All-Stars in prep aration for their game Friday with the National Footbail league champions Green Bay Packers. Cleveland President Arthur Modell said Qavis' condition has been diagnosed as a "blood disorder requiring ex tended treatment and rest.

Picked As Fighter Of Month New York-H'PI) - Unbeaten Cassius Clay, the brash young heavyweight contender who not only defeats all of his op ponents but picks the round of the knockout, was named "Fighter of the Month" by The Ring mRgazine.

Emeralds, Dodgers Clash In NVV League Mix at White Citv Eugene Emeralds, riding on a four-game winning skein, will seek their fourth triumph in a row over the Salem Dodgers this evening when the two baseball aggregations face off for the second time this season at Memorial field White City. The game is set for 8 p.m. Eugene and Salem are mem bers of the Class B profession al Northwest league. This will be a regular league fracas. Either Matt Gayeski (11-7) or Frank Linzy (6-6) is ex pected to take to the hill this evening for the Emeralds. They have the top win-loss marks this season for the Eu gene contingent. Salem's flinger may be Bill Bochlert (5-3). The Ems tipped the Dodgers 4 to 2 last night after taking a twinbill from the Salem club on Tuesday. Tonight's game finishes a four-game series with the Eugene team as host. Actually, however, it will mark the halfway point of an eight-game slate. The clubs, after meeting here, will mix four times at Salem. Salem Leader Salem is the leader in the second half NWL race. Eugene was the doormat at the end of the tirst half and was in that position in the current half at the start of this week. The Ems wins over the Dodgers have boosted them into fourth spot in the six team league. Eugene started the week 7'2 games back of Salem and has cut the difference to 4'4. Dodger losses to the Ems have reduced the Salem margin to two games over the second spot Tri-City Braves. Last night's outcome brought the Emeralds even with the Dodgers in games be tween the two clubs this sea son. Each has defeated the other nine times. Right now there appears something to the theory that it's the bottom of the ladder clubs that prove spoilers to the leaders. Reinforced Sudden surge of the Ems quite possibly is due to the re inforcements they have re ceived this week. These in clude Damaso Blanco,, third baseman. Bill Dixon, out fielder, and Jack Simmons, pitcher, from Springfield of the Eastern league. Blanco and Julio Linares, brought a short time ago from El Paso of PALMER LEADS WINNERS Dunedin, Fla. -IUPII- Arnold Palmer led the weekly PGA money-winning standings to day with a total of $71,198.33. Gene Littler was second with S57.770.83 and Bill Casper Jr., in third place with $52,438.44. JUMPER NEARED RECORD Helsinki - IUPII - T a t y an a Schelkonova of Russia, who has a world broad Jump rec ord of 21 feet, 4:,,i inches pending, soared 21 feet, 3V4 inches Tuesday in an interna tional track and field meet during the Communist Youth festival. the Texas loop, particularly fortify the Eugene outfield. There's another factor pos sibly in the rise of the Em eralds. They may have been reading the Oregon Statesman of Salem. Sports Editor Al Lightner remarked that Eu gene "can be called worst in the league without making too many folks unhappy." At the same time Lightner is puzzled that Salem should be leading the circuit. He doesn't feel that Salem actu ally is the best club in the loop. A Eugene writer has at tributed Dodger success to fine defense, speed, timely hitting and stellar pitching. Eugene is a farm club of the San Francisco Giants and Sa lem is tied to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Pitched No-Hitter Gayeski is a. 6-3, 20-year-old lefty who earlier in the sea son tossed the Northwest loops first nme-inning no-hitter in history. He was with Quiney in the Midwest league last year. His earned run average is 3.93. Linzy, who has been bothered by shoulder trouble, started the season with Spring field. The 21-year-old player has a 3.37 ERA. He has seen pinchhitting duty. KSL2!
