TULbDAY, NCAA Hopes To End AAU Dispute New York -(UPI)- The Na tional Collegiate, Athletic As sociation NCAA expects a peaceful settlement of its struggle for control of ama teur athletics in the United States before the 1964 Olym pics in Tokyo. "Right will triumph," said executive director Walter By- ers in a report on his group's fight with the national Ama- ' tcur Athletic Union AAU, which now controls American participation in international events covering track and field, basketball and gymnas- . tics. The policy-making council of the NCAA, in the second day of a three-day fall scsion in New York, was scheduled today for further discussion of the NCAA's annual conven tion at Los Angeles, Jan. 7-9. But while Byers was pre- dieting an early settlement, the NCAA Monday released a bulletin to member colleges urging they withdraw from the AAU until that group in- . dicales a more "cooperative " attitude" toward members of NCAA federations in matters of track and field, basketball ' and gymnastics. "We are asking the AAU either to loin our federations in these sports or join in dual sanctioning in o v e m e n t s so there can be a complete use of our personnel and facilities in putting together our interna tional teams, said Byers. Cepeda, Mays Will Undergo Doctors' Tests San Franclsco-IUPII -."Sick call" was in order today for two of the most prominent San Francisco Giants Or lando Cepeda and Willie Mays who headed toward the doc tor's office and hospital for tests. Cepeda expected to get the word on whether or not he has a cataract in his right eye. Mays scheduled a series of tests at Mount Zion Hos pital after feeling run down late in the season. Fears arose shortly after the World Series that Cepeda might have a cataract when he failed to pass an eye ex amination while applying for a driver's license. President Horace Stoncham of the Giants sent him to the offices of Dr. George Campion for today's examination after Cepeda had said that he might have a cataract. According to William Hunt er of the State Department of Motor Vehicles, Cepeda had a "lazy" right eye which caused him to fail one por tion of the routine physical cxnm. But he passed the test with combined vision and re ceived a license. Ccpcda's batting went into a sharp skid this season after he was hitting as high as .352 In May. He finished with a .306 average, hitting 35 home runs and driving in 114 tallies for 162 games. His World Series average was only .158. Last season, the big Puerto Tin-ail led the National league in both home runs and runs batted in with 46 and 142 re spectively. Mays, who underwent a checkup several years ago at Harkncss Pavilion in New York, collapsed on Sept. 12 in Cincinnati and stayed out of the lineup for three days. May's physician, who has asked to remain anonymous, said that the results of the tests would be announced this Friday or Saturday. MM HOW MUCH CAN YOU USE?

Iab2 PILOT OF YEAR-Bill Rigney of the Los Angeles Angels (shown in 1961 file photo) was named the American League's manager of the year today. (UPI) Bill Rigney Voted Pilot Of Year By FRED DOWN New York - OIPII - Bill Rig ney of the Los Angeles Angels - a teacher as well as a man aner - was named the Ameri can league s Manager oi me Year today by the United Press International. The gray-haired, high-strung former Giant lnflclder and manager, was selected by 21 of the 24 baseball writers who formed the UPI's 1962 board of baseball experts. Sam Mcle of the Minnesota Twins re ceived the other three votes. The Angels, playing only I heir second season, surprised the sports world by remain ing in the AL pennant race until mid-September and final ly finished third, 10 games behind the pennant-winning New York Yankees. Their rise from an infant franchise In 1961 to a flag threat in 1062 constitutes the most amazing development of its kind in major league his tory. Some experts say It wasn't until Rigney took over the Angels that he really learned to be a manager. With the Angels, he only had moderate talent available, compared to the players at his disposal when he managed the Giants. Realizing that he was faced with a new and entirely dif ferent problem. Rigney coax ed and wangled the most out of each player on the squad. The players showed a tre mendous respect for Rigney. He had their confidence bo 111 on and off the wield. They trusted him - and they accept ed his all-for-one, one-for-all approach to the team. Earlier, Fred Haney of the Angels - the man who hired Rigney and then worked lo provide him with the best players he could - was named the major league Executive Manager of the Year by the UPI. Farrell Out For 2-3 Weeks Corvallis -lUM- Linebacker end John Farrell was side lined Monday for two or three weeks as the Oregon State Beavers got rcadv to meet Washington Slate Saturday at Pullman.

The United Press Interna tional major college football Fanfare St. Mary's high took the right and honorable course in following through when it be came apparent that a football player was ineligible.

DISAPPOINTMENT The small turnout of spec tators for the Oregon State Rook - Oregon Frosh football game here Saturday night was a terrible disappointment. Some good hard ball was played and the game picked up momentum in the final period to become a real thriller. It's been remarked that the game could be brought here again and turned into an asset. But, it will take some educating and a lot of work and, perhaps, a more enticing ticket price. Popularity of the game is something that must be built, WHAT HE'S WANTED Medford high has been giv ing away three reserved seat tickets to football games at the noon luncheons of the Linebackers. Last Friday Black Tornado Head Coach Fred Spiegelberg pulled his own name from the hat. "Just what I've always wanted," said the mentor. SIDELINE AID Understand that the Henley Hornets had some help from the public address system an nouncer during the first half of their recent football game with St. Mary's at Henley. When SM quarterback Jim Calhoun would fade back, the announcer would yell, "Pass," Hornet defenders then knew to drop back to cover potential Crusader receivers. At halftime, an SM fan told the announcer that ha was not being very fair because he was not yelling the same information when a Hornet thrower dropped back. The announcer desisted in the sec ond half.

That was the ruling yester day of the Oregon School Ac tivities association board of control. St. Mary's sought the ruling. The board, meeting by con ference telephone call, review ed the facts of the case as presented by St. Mary's. A Oden Hawes, executive secretary-treasurer of the OSAA, said that the decision was unanimous. "The boy is just not eligible under our rules," said Hawes. It is an unfortunate thing. But, the games are going to have to be forfeited." The case concerns a sopho more who transferred from Grants Pass where he had at tended junior high. It involves an OSAA regulation which requires a player to have met certain grade standards dur ing the previous semester. It also involves a misunderstand ing on grades and concerns a faulty transcript which did not arrive at St. Mary's until after school was underway. Blew The Whistle St. Mary's Coach Bill Mc Kibbin noted the apparent in eligibility and the school de cided that the thing to do was to "blow the whistle" on it self. The OSAA office in Port land was advised of the case, the school investigated the matter and various circum stances involved and the facts were placed before the OSAA board yesterday morning.

Deer Rules Clarified Inquiries concerning the controlled deer hunt in the Rogue Valley area Nov. 10-25 and the archery deer hunt in the Green Springs area have resulted in explanation and clarification from state police.

These hunt ers also were issued a yellow permit which will allow kill ing of another deer to be tagged with the general deer tag. Police pointed out that, if the hunter has already used his general tag, the yellow permit is of no value to him. Another way of saying it is that the yellow permit is of no use if the hunter has killed FORMER BOXER DIES New York-dlPD-Harry Zal fass, 62, a bantamweight box er during the 1920's, died Monday.
