i rands Expelled
From Rio Grande
RIO GRANDE, Ohio Wl Tiny
Rio Grande College has expelled
Bevo Francis, the shy, gangling
farm boy who put It on the na
tional basketball map.
Francis, an awkward hill-coun
try lad who speaks slowly when
he speaks at all, in two years
changed Rio Grande from a school
without even a basketball court
to one with a big-time basketball
program.
Monday night the school's com
mittee on instruction issued a
Perfect
Game Missed
By Kegler
SEATTLE Ml A bowler who
missed a perfect game by a sin
gle pin turned In the day's best
performance at the 52st American
Bowling congress tournament
Monday.
Dale Carter, 27-year-old rooter
from Bremerton, Wash., rolled a
299, missing the payoff score on
his 12th frame when the No. 7 pin
wobbled and wavered, then righted
itself.
The 299 game; the first of this
tournament and the first minus
one effort since the 1951 ABC at
St. Paul, Minn., is the 15th in the
Sl-year history of the World Series
of bowling.
The only perfect game of thls
meet, and the 13th in an ABC
tournament, was rolled by Tony
Sparando or Rego Park, N. Y.
on March 31.
', Carter followed his 299 with a 205
and hit 171 In the third game for
a 675 total, two pins short of a
berth in the singles top ten.
While the final total kept him out
of the top ten, - the 299 game
elected him to an elite circle. He
is the 28th man in the 52 years
of ABC tournament bowling to roll
a 299 or 300 game. And that takes
in more than 1,780,000 games.
No other bowlers In doubles and
singles threatened the top ten and
the full day of bowling ended with
no changes in the standings.

statement saying Francis had been
dropped from the rolls because of
"an excessive number of unex-
cused absences, failure to make
up more than one of his missed
mid-term examinations, and fail
ure to attend any classes In the
last two weeks."
APPEARED
The announcement appeared to
take everyone by surprise, includ
ing Francis' coach and personal
friend. Newt Oliver, and Bevo's
father.
As for Bevo his real name Is
Clarence he was "out fishing" at
the time, apparently unaware of
tne commotion caused oy nis ex
pulsion. Oliver asked, in tones of dis
belief: "Who expeUed him?"
In Wellsville, Bevo's fatber
drawled: "Why, I was lust talk
ing to Bevo this evening and he
didn't say anything about It." .
Francis, a 30-year-oia sopho
more who learned his basketball
by shooting at hoop in a hay
loft, holds the small college sea
son scoring record. The 6 feet 1
center scored 1.25S points last sea
son for a 27-game average of 40.5.
TROUBLE
When Bevo first game to Rio
Grande, the Sc-ithcm Ohio college
with 94 stujents was having trou
ble maklug ends meet.
But recently, J. Boyd Davis,
chairman of the school's board,
said "our campaign for funds
$300,000 in three years is off to
a good start. Pledges are well
above $100,000."
Francis a few weeks ago said
he might have to quit after this
term because "bills are piling up.
"If Bevo goes, I guess I'll go
with him," Oliver said then.
Monday night be backed it up.
"I came with Bevo and we'll go
together." he told a reporter.
But, he said, be would not re
sign immediately.
Oliver seemed surprised ai me
announcement of his protege's dis
missal. "Somebody's overshot his au
thority. Nobody ever has been
kicked out before the end of the
term before," he said.
What will Bevo do now?
Oliver wasn't talking about the
offers Francis, has had to play
basketball for pay, but he said:
Bevo won c go nungry."

Could Win
Cup Tonight

one victory to win the coveted
Stanley Cup, Detroit's power
packed Red Wings take en the
Montreal Canadiens Tuesday night
in the sixth of their best-of-seven
final series.
Coach Tommy Ivan's Birds lead
the Canadiens 1-2, but they've
never finished up a Stanley Cup
series on enemy ice, so they have
a Jinx working against them.
The Canadiens have won the last
two Stanley Cups, but their backs
are to the wall this year. They
must win not only Tuesday night,
but also in Detroit on Friday if
they can draw It out to toe full
seven games.

The Senators are sorely handi

kids like Harvey Kuenn to grow
