Newspaper Page TextChief Tutor Hands Over Resignation Seattle - (ITU - Vince Cai zetta, popular and successful basketball coach at Seattle university, kept his eyes on an NCAA tournament bid lor his team today despite the furor over his sudden resigna tion. "I'm sure we'll continue our winning ways the rest of the year and we plan to make it to the tournament," he said Wednesday shortly after an nouncing his resignation. "I know the boys will battle hard. - "After that, I can't foretell the future. But I wish the school only the very best of success in the future." Cazzetta in his statement charged the school's athletic director, Eddie O'Brien, a formjr Chieftain star, with "interference" in the opera tion of the school's basketball program. Hardest Thing Before sending his letter of resignation to The Very Rev. A. S. Lemieux, S.J., president of the school, Cazzetta broke the news to his team. "It was the hardest thing I ever had to do," he said. Cazzetta's letter said in part that "O'Brien repeatedly erected roadblocks, either by sccident or design, that have had a stifling effect and made my position both untenable and uncomfortable." University officials denied such interference had taken place. O'Brien, who teamed with his twin brother Johnny to catapult the Chiefs into na tional basketball prominence, enied he had interferred in j'trketball recruiting and said scheduling always has been the coach's job, subject to the approval of the athletic di rector. O'Brien said the basic prob lem was that Cazzetta had given the university "an ulti matum" to change its policies md set up the basketball coach separate from the ath letic director. SECTION D PAGES 1 to II Great Field At Phoenix Phoenix, Ariz. - (UPII - One of the greatest fields in the 28-year history of the Phoenix Open Golf tournament teed off today with, defending champion Arnold Palmer, National Open champion Jack Nicklaus and PGA king Gary Player rated as the men to beat. It was the first round of a 72 - hole tournament, played on one course, the flat, tree lined Arizona Country club. The pros aren't beefing, be cause they are used to all types of courses. But there will be some trouble on the greens here. Because of a plant disease, most of the greens were lost during the winter and these have been brought along in the last two months to a playable condition. Treasure IN YOUR CAR Tnnk? 17 MEDFORDtr&iSTRIBUHE MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7. 1963 Ashland, Medford Cagers Vie Friday Coach George Keil and perhaps, his Ashland Griz zlies, too, would prefer to be playing someone else this Fri day night. But, since the schedule calls for the Ashland ers to come to Medford, the Bruins will content them selves with an effort to make it two in a row in basketball over the Black Tornado. The two teams clash at 8:15 p.m. at the Hednck gym. It will be the first of two Southern Oregon conference assignments on the week end for each team. Medford will go to Grants Pass on Satur day while Ashland will enter tain Klamath Falls. We'd like to beat Medford twice . in a row to prove a point . . . that the first one was no fluke," said Keil. We'll be there Friday, he added. The Ashland mentor said that it appears his Bruins will be a lot stronger physically this week - and mentally, too - than they were for last Sat urday's game with Medford. While the triumph over the Tornado, Ashland'S first con ference win in 58 games, left the Grizzlies somewhat men tally tired, Keil noted a lot more poise and confidence this week - and Brum shooting has picked up. The Grizzlies, 1-7 in league play, took it easy on Monday but had hard drills on Tues day and Wednesday. Ash landers are working against a full court press and against zone defense "trying to be ready for any eventuality." Run of the mill practices have been reported this week by Medford mentor Frank Roelandt. They are in between the tough ones of a couple of weeks ago and the easy ones of last week. Roelandt said that he has been working Rich Benner, still wearing a cast on his left arm, in as the third big man or in place of the third little man. "He may even start this week, 1 don't know," said the skipper. Benner will still have the cast on at least through this week end. Mike Barnes has missed practices this week because of a cold and Darryl Stockton missed drills through yester day because of being in Port land for Naval reserve otticer training corps exams. Medford, 3-5 in the loop, and Ashland go into the week end tussle even steven in their season meetings since each has defeated the other. Against Grants Pass, Medford will try to snap a five-game Caveman winning string over the Black Tornado. Medford has not beaten GP since the first meeting of the two in the conference last season. Grants Pass (5-3), the de-' fending state A-l champ, is ambitious to improve on a sec ond place tie in the current conference standings with Crater. The Tornado is des perate for victories to move back into titular running. Any title or tourney aspirations harbored by Ashland are dim ones. Just additional victor ies, however, will be highly satisfying to the Grizzlies. Medford and Ashland jay vces meet at Hedrick at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Sophs tussle at the same time at the senior high boys' court. Ducks Go To Idaho University of Oregon, Eu-gene- Oregon's dangerous Ducks, fresh from a two-game split with powerful California at Berkeley, invade Moscow Friday and Saturday to battle Idaho and fabled Gus Johnson. The Webfoots head into the two-game series with a 7-9 rec ord, while the Vandals are 13-3, the best mark of any Northwest independent. Duck coach Steve Belko hasn't disclosed his starting lineup for the series opener, but most experts are guessing he'll stick with the same group which pulled out the 60-55 win over California last week. That unit lists 6-5 Steve Jones and 6-4 Jerry Anderson at forwards, 6-7 Glenn Moore at center and 5-11 Bob Yates and 6-2 Elliott Gleason at guards. Probable Idaho starters are the fantastic Johnson at cen ter, Tom Whitfield and Chuck White at forwards and Rich Porter and Lyle Parks at guards. iJ YOU HAVE CHANCES TO WIN FIRST PRIZE IS $10,000 CASH iinvt in now and register in f.sns.-;!

Back on September 23, 1937, in New York's Polo Grounds. Mike Jacobs ore- I sented boxing greatest ex travaganza and one of us most disappointing financial flops - the carnival of cham pions.

Harris maintained the check was made out to Dimaggin's friend, B. H. Bryn, who cashed the tucun, and that the former Yankee star "inten tionally misrepresented the check. . .to deceive and de- j fraud." i In the suit, Harris said both j men were informed of the re- J turned check "but they re- i fused and neglected to pay."
