In unprecedented numbers, the fans are buying tickets for his fight with New Yorker Doug Jones at Madison Square Garden next Wednesday night. Matchmaker Teddy Bren ner announces, "There'll be a complete sellout of all 18,000 seats b-e-f-o-r-e the day of the fight, for the first time in the new Garden's 38-year history." Brenner explains that the last Garden pro boxing sell out, 13 years ago, and a cou ple sellouts before that, were achieved with the help of big fight-day sales. Twenty-one-year-old Cassi us, the world's second-ranking heavyweight contender and new No. 1 sports pop-off guy, loves the impact he is making among New York's 8-million but says: "It's only natural because New Yorkr -s recognize me as the greatest and are coming to see me fight." with 15.3 and Alvarez is next cowLHENtt standings: n . i. rcu i-r i-.a 9 S .643 870 840 with 14.8 Crater heads team scoring with 1.307 for the full season and 879 for the conference.

Regarded as shoo-ins only 10 days ago, the Black Hawks feel today like they have pur suers swarming all over their backs. Which, in fact, they do. The Toronto Maple Leafs, closing with a rush, crept to within two points of the first place Hawks Wednesday night when they beat the Boston Bruins, 4-0 and Chicago lost to the New York Rangers, 5-2. The Leafs have a game in hand they have eight games left to play while the Black Hawks have seven.

Ross Barnett today. Barnett called a news con ference Wednesday to an nounce his displcasu with state's disregard of an official policy against Mississippi teams entering racially-integrated events. t But Barnett indicated he would not attempt to inter fere - that it was strictly a matter for the state college board. The board, which is split on the issue, will meet Sat urday to decide whether to cancel State's . trip to East Lansing, Mich., next week for a regional playoff. Barnett was asked if he had informed board members of his feelings. He replied, "They can read it in the newspapers."

(Winston Studio) District 6 A-2 Tournament This Week End at SO Court Myrtle Creek Plays Eagle Point; Henley Tussles Douglas Five There'll be a bit of famili arity about the District 6 A-2 basketball playoff this week end. The setting will be dif ferent but the schools repre sented will be the same as in 1962. Eagle Point High school, last year's district champion will oppose Myrtle Creek at 7:30 p.m. on Friday in the tourney opener at the South ern Oregon college gym in Ashland. Henley, Oregon's No. 1 rated A-2 team, will en gage Douglas in the scrap at 8:45 p.m. Winners vie at 8:45 p.m. on Saturday for the district dia dem. Friday's losers collide in the 7:30 p.m. brush for third play. The district champion advances to the Oregon Class A-2 tournament which opens March 18 at Coos Bay. Henley and Myrtle go into this week's action as cham pions, respectively. In the 1963 Rogue and Umpqua Val ley league chases. Eagle Point in the Rogue and Douglas in the Umpqua were runnersup. The Hornets of Henley will carry an unbeaten 20-game record into the playoff. Myrtle Creek's Vikings are 1B-4. The Eagle Point Eagles were 17-6 after a second place playoff mix with Illinois Val ley. Douglas was 12-8. The Eagles and the Hornets were figured as contenders before the league campaigns got underway. Myrtle Creek and Douglas, because of in experience were not highly rated. They emerged as dark horses in their race. Eagle Point, Myrtle Creek and Douglas were busy through last week end. Hen ley will enter the district run off after two weeks without a game. Coach Jerry Johnson, who rested his lads on Mon day and Friday of last week, feels the layoff will be of help. ' At Myrtle Creek Coach Henry Talus and his Vikings are sweating out a threat of mumps. So far, none of his players have them. "But, it could happen," said Talus. A few of his cagers do have colds. Both Myrtle Creek and Douglas will go to Ashland with the. feeling that their clubs are a year away, so far as district title chances real ly are concerned. However, Coach Rod Feigner remarked, "We're certainly not going down there just for the ride." Both he and Talus are pleased with the job their clubs have done this season. The Vikings of MC have only one lcttcrman from last year in the person of Ed Cad man, a S-9 senior. This is his fourth varsity season for the Viks. Douglas has a third- year varsity man in 6-foot Bruce Ledgerwood, a senior, and a man with one year of previous varsity experience in Bob Reed, 6-l'Ai, a junior. Sophomores and juniors have dominated the Trojan lineup. The Myrtle Creek -Eagle Point meeting will be the sec ond between the two teams this season. Eagle Point won a non-league tussle 47 to 33. In last years playoff the Eagles gained the title by beating Douglas 54 to 36 and MC 44 to 43 in overtime. Myrtle Creek advanced to the finale by nipping Henley 37 to 36. f l v j SPORTS I, T Pts F OA I I 1 57 ijlj Jl6 I Kg Wm III L 30 2 40 180 273 I ID M I L 9m 1 METAL WORKS I I Commercial Industrial I IMS OF RA 1 1 Ba.iiJ...!.!
