Chief 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.

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.

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.

Tripleheader
Boxing Bargain
Los Aneeles - IUPII - The
Olympic Boxing Club's triple
championship fight card, set
March 16 at Dodger Stadium,
shapes up as the year's best
boxing bargain, but one not
without precedent.
The card, announced
Wednesday by promoters Cal
and Aileen Eaton and match
maker George Parnassus, will
pit welterweight champion
Emile Griffith and feather
king Davey Moore against
their leading contenders, and
former junior welterweight
titleholder Eddie Perkins
against Raymundo (Battling)
Torres for the vacant iw
pound crown.
Griffith will face Cuban
Luis Rodriquez in the nation
ally televised feature and
Moore will tangle with knockout-artist
Ultiminio (Sugar)
Ramos, another Cuban.
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. Jacobs' promotion had
three world cnampionsnip
bouts, and a fourth - between
middleweights Fred Apostoli
and France's Marcel Thil -received
European recogni
tion as a title fight.

today he would start Terry
Baker, Jim K r a u s, Mel

Pilots in Portland Friday
night.
Steve Pauly would be the
top - line reserve. These six
players went all the way in
last week's 66-60 win over
Seattle.
Baker is expected to be able
to play despite a sore toe.
The Beavers and Pilots
meet here Saturday night.
EX-CHAMP IMPROVES
El Centro, Calif - ttlPil - For
mer world bantamweight
champion Manuel Ortiz will
have to remain in the hospital
a while longer although he
said Thursday that he was
feeling fine and "ready to go
home.'' The 46-year-old ex
champ almost died following
abdominal surgery for a gas
tric hemorrhage Jan. 25.
Joe DiMaggio
Named in Suit
Indio. Calif. -IUPII- Joe Di-
maggio, former New York
Yankee baseball great, has
been named in a $30,000 dam
age suit charging him with is
suing a bad check.
The suit was filed by Sher
man Harris, owner of a steak
house in nearby Palm Springs,
at Riverside County superior
court Friday. The suit stated
Dimaggio signed a S7.000
check at the restaurant Jan.
10 and it was returned by a
New York bank because of in
sufficient funds.
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."
