American Basketball League Collapses, Will Disband Immediately Chicago -lUI'll- Tile Ameri can Basketball league an nounced yesterday it is dis banding immediately. Announcement of the col lapse of the infant profession al cage circuit organized by Abe Saperstein, owner-coach of the Harlem Globe Trotters, came midway through the cir cuit's second year of opera tion. The league, which opened its first season with eight teams, closed with teams in six cities, Pittsburgh, Phila delphia, Chicago, Oakland, Long Beach and Kansas City. National Basketball associ ation club owners were ex pected to start picking the remains of that once pesky but now dead league. Frank Lane, general man ager of the Chicago Zephyrs, lost no time in announcing he would try to land three play ers from the defunct ABL. Lane said he wanted Larry Slaverman and Maurice King of the Kansas Cily Steers and Roger Kaiser of the Philadel phia Tapers. His club has NBA draft rights to all three, Lane said. The St. Louis Hawks also were shooting for the services of a Kansas City player. Bill Bridges, who was the ABL's leading scorer until Commis sioner Abe Saperstein an nounced the league's demise Monday. But the Steers' owner, Ken Kruegcr, hinted he would not be easy to deal with. Kruegcr said lie hoped to revive the league under a new commis sioner. Failing that, Krucger said lie would seek entry for the Steers in the NBA. News that the ABL was folding came hard to Kruegcr, whose Steers, although losing money like the rest of the six team loop, showed signs of increasing attendance. T h e others who looked for rising fortunes were Oakland and Long Beach. The business manager of the Oakland Oaks expressed disappointment al the decision to abandon the league. Bob Helm, business mana ger of the Oaks, said, "The attendance was beginning to pick up nicely and there was strong local interest to pur chase the franchise from the ABL by some local sports men." But Saperstein, who made it big with the Harlem Globe Trotters, said "projected season-long losses did not justify continuance." The little impresario said the league lost $1 million in the first year of operation and losses thus far in the sec ond season were estimated at $250,000. Bob Garibaldi Saves $9,000 By Marriage Stockton, Calif. - (UPI) - San Francisco Giant pitcher Bob Garibaldi has a new bride and Uncle Sam was out S9.000 because of it. Garibaldi wed the former Carol McNabb Sunday at toe Church of Anuunication here. By marrying this year instead of next, as they had originally planned, the two 20-ycar-olds saved themselves the $9,000 in income taxes. The taxes are on the report ed $150,000 given Garibaldi by the Giants to sign on as a pitcher with the National league champs. About 100 friends and rel atives attended the ceremony. The couple then left on a Las Vegas honeymoon. Garibaldi pitched for Uni versity of Santa Clara last spring, and was then signed by the Giants. He saw some action for them during the 1962 season.

West Texas coach Jer Ker bel called the play "the turn ing point of the game." "He (Gibson) eluded so many players I didn't know if he would ever get free," Ker bel said. Gibson reversed his field twice looking for a receiver. He found Richard behind the line of scrimmage and the fleet halfback zipped down the sidelines for 32 yards and the touchdown. Regular quar terback Jim Dawson passed to end Jim Ostrander for the game winning two extra points. Kerbel said "When Don Hoolver caught that fumble in the air and ran it back for their touchdown, I was just about as low as I could get." hoolver, who was voted the game's outstanding lineman grabbed Dawson's fumble on the nine and lumbered 91 yards for a touchdown that put Ohio ahead, 11-7, in the third period. Specialist Jim McKee boot ed two field goals for the Bobcats. A 52-yarder in the second period put Ohio on front, 3-0, and set a new Sun Bowl record. He added a 24 yard field goal in the second quarter after Ohio marched to the West Texas four-yard line and then stalled. West Texas inarched 92 yards for the game winning touchdown with 10 minutes left in the last quarter. Daw son passed 13 yards to half back Jerry Logan, national scoring champion, for West Texas' first TD in the second period. Logan was voted the game's oustanding player. Gib son kicked the extra point Taylor Lets His Running Talk New York-fflPU-Jim Taylor took a lot of abuse from the New York Giants in Sunday's game but "just rammed it back down their throats." The hard-driving Green Bay Packer fullback said he "never took a worse beating on a football field.'" The physical abuse was bad enough, said the 215-pound Taylor, but the vocal abuse topped even that. "They kept yelling 'You're overrated' t i..e all day," said the National Football league s leading ground gainer. "They couldn't rattle me, though. I just rammed it back down their throats by letting my running do my talking." Sutherlin Man Second In Steer Wrestling Dallas, Tex.

I Medford; -Ki A TT Tribune RESULTS! Newspaper Advertising Scores More Sales than Other Media The nation's local advertisers invested $2.7 billion in newspapers last year. That's six times as much as they spent in radio, nine times as much as in TV, three times as much in newspapers as in all other major media combined! Herman C. Nolen, president of McKtsson & Robbins, Inc., puts it this way: "We at McKesson feel that if you place an advertisement in a news paper the result is -something happens. You get action." If you want action, if you want results - use the daily newspaper.
