Triple Ring
Title Card
Saturday
Los Angeles - IUPD - The
triple championship boxing
program Saturday at Dodgers
Stadium is billed as 43 rounds
of title competition but the
odds are long that the fans
will see a good deal less
ring time that that,
It would be a major sur
prise if at least one bout does
not end in a knockout and
the chances of quick endings
In all three are not remote.
The lop knockout artists
are welterweight champion
Emile Griffith, who meets
Luis Rodriguez; featherweight
champ Davey Moore who fi
nally let Sugnr Ramos catch
up with him, for a price; and
Battling Torres who meets
Roberto Cruz for the vacated
junior welterweight title.
Griffith remained a slight
choice to defeat Rodriguez
and retain his title In the na
tionally televised (ABC) bout.
But there was a good deal of
wagering at 8-5, take your
choice, Indicating many feel
the fight is a tossup.
ONLY 2 PADS UNSIGNED
Tampa, Fla. - (UPli - Only
two players were unsigned
for the Snn Diego Padres to
day. Latest to come to terms
with the defending PCL
champs was first sucker Bud
Zlpfel. Still unsigned are
pitcher Ted Wills and infictd

sent outfielder Mel Queen to
the Pads camp Thursday but
he will be sidelined for at
least two weeks because of
torn tendons. His right arm

but until late Thursday it
was feared that the South
eastern Conference champions
would be denied entry in the
tournament.
Justice Stays Injunction
However, a . Iississippi
Stale Supreme Court justice
stayed an injunction brought
by segregationists who object
ed to the Bulldogs playing
against non-whites.
Loyola has four Negroes
on its starting five.
Because of segregationist
feelings, Mississippi State was
unable to participate in th
tournament in three of the
past four years. The univer
sity's sports information dircc-
ally as its first round oppo

pin of West Coast indepen

Return of Dons
San Francisco, making its
first tournament appearance
since the fabulous mid-50's
when the Dons won two na
tional championships, plays
the first game against the
Beavers.
The winners of tonight's
contests clash Saturday night
for the right to represent the
West In the NCAA finals at
Louisville, Ky.
Best Draw
Coach Slat Gill's Oregon
Stale Club appears to have
the best opening round draw
of the four teams involved
In the playoffs. San Francis
co, although it was the west
C o a s t Athletic conference
crown, lacks the size and
depth to match the balanced
Beaver crew.
Oregon Slate, with 7-foot
Counts and floor general Ter
ry Baker, the All - America
football star turned basket-
bull player leading the way,
compiled an Impressive 20-7
record during the season. Most
of the losses came with Baker
not in the lineup.
The Beavers entered the
Provo playoffs by turning
back Seattle 70-06 last Mon
day at Eugene, Ore. Counts
scored 30 points in the game
and indicated he's one of the
most Improved players in the
nation.
Bruins Scalped Tribe
UCLA won its second
straight trip to Provo by turn
ing back Stanford in a play
off game which decided the
Biz Six championship. Ari
zona Slate entered by nudg

Olympic Trials
This Week End
Ml. Shasta, Calif. - The
great bowl of the southwest
slope of Ml. Shasta will be
the setting this coming week
end, March 16 and 17, for the
1983 Far West and Pacific
Northwest Regional Tryouls
for the U.S. Olympic ski team.
Transfer of the event to Mt.
Shasta from the previously
scheduled location in the
Sugar Bowl near Donner
Summit resulted from scarcity
of snow on the other Sierra
slopes to the south, according
to Robert Vaughn, manager
of the Mt. Shasta Ski Bowl.
Shasta's exceptionally good
snow cover of the past winter
also has brought it the best
skiing season of its history,
with record and near-record
crowds on the lows and slopes
since Thanksgiving.
Vaughn reported the Olym
pic team competition will
begin at noon both days.

John K o v e n z, Medford

said early this week that
"things are starting to shape

ford's basketball team com
pletes its action in the state

Kovenz will have all hands
present. Five members of last
year's conference champion
baseball squad are on the
hoop team.
The mentor reported some
fair batting practice and a
few rounds of infield drill.
Infield work, nevertheless,
has been on a makeshift dia
mond. Layout of the diamond
has been shifted because of
construction of the new grand
stand and its protrusion along
the left field line. It looks
like the field will be ready
for the start of play, Kovenz
reported. . .
