THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 1956 Malm, Chiloquin County The "play for pay" sign goes up t lull mast Friday night in the county B-league circles as the first counting basketball action of the season opens at Chiloquin, Malin , and Bonanza. In first round games, Malin plays host to Bly's Bobcats, Chilo quin meets the Trojans of Sacred Heart on the Panthers' home ma ple, and Merrill travels to Bonan za. Another game tomorrow eve ning, a non-league tussle, pits Hen ley's A-2 Hornets against Gilchrist on the Grizzlies home floor. All of the teams have been work ing their way through a non-counting warmup season the early part of December, now the curtain goes up and the "play for fun" sign comes down. Conference games will be played each Friday night, with further Kings-X action slated for Tuesday nights until tourna ment time, the middle of Febru ary. Malin and Chiloquin are tabbed as the two teams to beat this year. Last year Chiloquin cap tured the regular season race, but lost out to the Mustangs of Malin in the post-season tournament. Ma lin later went on to gain the finals of the state B high school tournament, but lost the cham pionship to Knappa by a last-second, one-point margin. The teams rated to give these co-favorites tha most trouble are Merrill and Sacred Heart, but the Dayton To Meet Duquesne By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Seven-foot Bill Uhl and his Day ton Flyers return to action after a week's vacation tonight against tough Duquesne In an effort to ex tend their undefeated string to 10 games. Dayton is No. 3 in the Asso ciated Press poll, ranking behind San Francisco and North Carolina State. After tonight's game, the Flyers must tangle with Duquesne again at the tail end of the season. Next month they play Memphis State, a team that has gone over 100 points four times this season. It vanquished Miami (Fla.) 79-11 in the Senior Bowl semifinal last night and will meet Spring Hill lor the title tonight. Lloyd Aubrey made Notre Dame history last night when he broke the Irish field house scoring record with a 43-point binge in an 83 victory over Butler. The Irish zipped to a 43-34 balftlme lead. Maryland warmed up to its George Washington battle tonight by clubbing South Carolina 76-57. Coach Bud Mtllikan of the Terps had a long look at his second stringers. In another A AC contest. Lefty Davis scored 26 points to lead Wake Forest to an 84,71 "sweet revenge" victory over Duke. Only last week, the Deacons dropped a 64-52 decision to the Dukes in the Dixie Classic. Other noteworthy events last night: Biggest upset Belmont Abbey's 84-82 over Richmond. Undefeated Temple won No. 7, turning back Lehigh 81-48. - Streaks St. Bonaventure won 58th in a row at home, whipping Le Moyne 80-70. Seton Hall, practically always a power, made a fresh bid to get in the top 20 by setting down Loyola of Baltimore 69-54 lor Its ninth vic tory in 10 starts. Oklahoma City polished off Tulsa 58-50 to reverse a result of last week, while Kansas State smoth ered College of the Pacific 67-36. 1956 International FACTORY BUILT FOUR WHEEL 1 ktSt S.I. iltl M a- Ntw 240 Cu.

Gilchrist, Bonanza and Bly are not to be counted out of the picture. All seven of the county Bs are improved over last season, and a tighter race is expected. The regular season play will have little if any bearing on the league's representative in the dis trict playoffs against the Jackson County B League champ. The win ner of the tournament is declared the champ of the local "small school preppers." Only the berths and positions In the tournament are at stake during the season's cage action. Four starters from last year's club, and three all-state selections are the main reason for handing Malin a co-favorite bow. Norm Oliva, 6-3 pivotman, Ray Johnson, Roger Dokken and Glen Steyskal are all back for another season as Malin regulars. The only start er coach Jim Conroy lost was Lavon Travis, also an all-stater. The B dream team members back are Johnson, Oliva and Dokken. Chiloquin's hopes are placed on the shoulders of all-county center Dick Siemens and returning let termen Sid Ridenour and Gary Heglund. Merrill has Herb Schlecht and Terry Sherrlll back, two high-scoring seniors. Leading the Sacred Heart charge will be all-county guard Dean Michaelis, Jerry Depuy and the Wickline brothers, Dick and Ron. 3 U1NOR CLASSIC LEAGi:E Bob and Potly'i 38 30 Rouna-Up Tavern 38 : Bins Fountain m Gremi Mfg. 32 38 Landry Insurance 31 37 Al Longe Hcaiior Last night'i results: Round-Up 1 Landry 3 Ding i 3 Bob and Polly's 1 Al Longe 3 Gremi Mfg. 2 High tram game -Landry Insurance 906 High team series Landry Insurance 2549 High individual game Earl Tabrr 212 High individual teriea Joe Cox 337 AUTOMOTIVE LEAGUE W L 51 17 29' t 31 :io 36'i 31'i 36 32 :u 35 33 35 32' 1 35' 2 32 36 31 37 27'i 40' i 19 40 Basin Motors Lorenx Co.

Warren Dye Is another point-making threat Bonanza can claim. For Bly and Gilchrist, the roll of underdog Is tabbed, but before the season Is over, the Bobcats and Grizzlies . may rise up and draw blood from several county league foes. Bly has letterman Larry Robin and non-letter win ner Pete Herrera, while another all-county pick.

Honor Goes To Pat Berg By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Patricia Jnne Berg, who once quarterbacked a football team that Included Oklahoma Coach Bud Wilkinson, was the Woman Athlete of the Year for 1955 in the opinion of the nation's sports- writers and sports broadcasters. The stocky, 35-year-old Patty won this honor entirely on her ability as a professional golfer.

Now as the acknowledged "dean" of women's golf and pos sibly Its most intense competitor. Miss Berg set a record for the others to shoot at in 1955. She led all the pros on the women's cir cuit in money winning with a total of $16,492.34 and won the Varden Trophy for low average scoring in tournament play. It was the first lime one player had taken both the money winning and low scoring titles in the same .year.- -s In the balloting by 179 sports writers and broadcasters in The Associated Press year-end poll, red-headed, blue-eyed Patty beat out another celebrated golfer. Babe Didrlkson Zaharlas by 54 points 200 to 146. Doris Hnrt, the' women's tennis champion, was the only other one who cut much of a figure in the voting as the experts apparently had trouble recalling the perform ances of the ladies. One writer glumly marked his ballot: "I don't know the names of three female athletes." About 40 failed to vote. Swimmer Florence Chadwlck. who failed in several attempts to make a round-trip swim across the English Channel, placed fourth. Other leaders in the voting were Mrs. Pat Keller McCormick, na tional and Pan-American games diving champion, Louise Suggs, winner of five women's pro golf tournaments; Shelly Mann, holder of numerous swimming records, and national figure skating cham pion Tenley Albright.

Pel grappling coach MSU Win Still Has Confusion LOS ANGELES lifl Controver sy and confusion continued Thurs day, but the record books will still say the final Bcore of the 1956 Rose Bowl game was Michigan State 17, UCLA 14. Not since 1949 and the disputed touchdown by Northwestern's Art Murakowski, when the Wildcats beat California 20-14, has there been such a post-game ruckus. And, strangely, few disputed the fact Michigan Slate should have won its game. A newspaper here kept the argu ments ffoinir Wednesday with a tni-u rieimimr thp winning" firOri goal by Dave Kaiser in the final seven seconds might not have been kicked If MSU had been penalized 15 yards for' noaohng from the sidelines by Illegally throwing In the kicking tee. A Pacific Coast Conference spokesman said there was no rea son for a 15-yard penalty since time was out when (he tee came onto the field. He said both coaches had been schooled before the game that if the clock was stopped, the tee could be sent In without a penalty for coaching from the sidelines, STATEMENT This backed up the statement by MSU Coach Duffy Daugherty Im mediately after the game. The confusion began after 68 minutes snd 26 seconds of the con test were h'lilorr.c'iVicn. with UCLA on its 20, the Bruins were penalized 15 yards for coaching from the sidelines. The call was against line Coach Jim Myers for waving his arms indicating "try for a pass." The rule book bears out this penally although some claimed it almost never Is called. There were unofficial Intimations that such signals are often used. UCLA head Coach Red Sanders made no com plaint on the penalty call. A second successive penalty against UCLA sent the Bruins back to the 1 and brought almost a nationwide storm of protest. Ronnie Knox tried a pass from his end zone after Michigan State put on a good rush. Referee Ross Dean gave an arm signal for a oenalty for Intention ally grounding the pass. He stepped off the penalty. Critics, who had watched on TV. pointed out that If the pass was grounded. UCLA should have been charged with a safety and Mtojilgan State given two points. That would have made the score 16-14. ARM SIGNAL Wednesday Commissioners K. L. (Tug i Wilson of the Big Ten and Victor O. Schmidt of the PCC said the arm signal had been in error and the penally was for having an Ineligible receiver downfield. In Chicago. Bill Reed, assistant to Wilson, said Dean eot the wrong signal originally from an other official. He did not Identify him. Young Knox' stepfather, Harv ey, had some comments to make, which In not unusual. He didn't think Coach Sanders used Ronnie enough or al the proper time. He said the coach kept Sain Brown In until the Tun ing attack had been stopped and MSU easilv readjusted Itself for a desperation passing game. He didn't approve of the officiating either.

Owls Face State In An old proverb states "There's nothing like meeting the tough ones first," and Wally Palmberg's Oregon Tech Owls are all agree ing that by opening their 1955-96 Oregon Collegiate Conference bas ketball season against Portland Stale College, that is Just what they are doing. This Friday and Saturday nights In Portland, the Mile High Cam pus hoopsters will make their con ference cage debut in the Lincoln High School gymnasium against the potent Portland Staters. The Vikings 'Of Sharkey Nelson are rated to capture the OCC flag for the second straight year. New rays of hope sprinkled through the Owl practice sessions this past week as two new pros oects turned nut to greet Palm berg, and a pair of letterman from past OTI teams returned to Owl Bantam Ben Planning For 'Some' Br HAL WOOD , United Press Sports Writer LOS ANGELES (UP) 01' Ben Hogan, the golfer's golfer, said to day that he planned to play In some golf tournaments this year' but added the precautionary atate ment that he wouldn't prepare himself to win. Hogan, here to participate in the pro - celebrity tourney today that is a prelude to the $30,000 Los Angeles Open starling tomor row, said he didn't plan to play in any more National Open tour naments. The greying former king of the links, now 43, said he was "hap py" in his semi-retirement. . "After the pro -amateur here, I'm going to watch the rest of the boys plav for one day, then go up to Pebble Beach to play with some friends for a few days," he Castellan. Whipped By Gene Fullmer CLEVELAND I At last, a vlC' torious fighter who doesn't want to take on the champion next: Brawler Gene Fullmer, winner of a split decision over Rocky Cas tellan! last night In a blood splashed 10-rounder at Cleveland Arena, says he O mucn preier an- other crack at Argentina Eduardo Lausse to a middleweight title fliht wilh Suaar Ray Robin. son. Fullmer dropped a decision to Lausse last November.

"I'll get to Robinson In time." ' Last night's nationally televised bout left many of the 1.487 arena spectators, as well as the judges, In disagreement as to which fight er should have won. Castellanl, despite blood stream' , ing from a deep cut over his right eye from the sixth round on, was fresh at the finish and appeared to have Fullmer in trouble the last two rounds. Fullmer, however, was willing to take the 'best Castellanl could of fer. Bleeding himself f'om a gash across his hairline, he kept driving in to the end on legs that steadily lost steam after the eighth round. Tribe Signs Little Three Pitching Staff By UNITED PRESS General Manager Hank Green berg completed the signing of the Cleveland Indians' "little three of the mound" today and cleared the nay for driving hard bargains with hlffh-salRilcd Bob Lemon, Early Wvnn and Mike Garcia. Grecnberg announced that strike out wizard Herb Score snd Don Mossl had Joined Ray Narleski as satisfied employes and pointed eut. "It Is very comforting to know lhat we have lalenled pitchers like them to make up another formid able 'big lliree' a few years hence." But the fact that Score, Mossl and Narleski are the only players Orcenbeig has signed so far made t clear thai Lemon, Wynn and Garcia will be entirely on the de fensive when the Cleveland gen eral manager sits down to dicker over 1956 terms with them. For the fact is that the so-called "little three" wa& probably more valu able to the club Inst year than the "big three" and is slmost certain to be so in 1956. In Baltimore, meanwhile.
