Peterson said this morning that
It was doubtful if big Earle Tlclic
nor, 6-5 forward and high scorer
bo far this season, will see much
action against the Grizzlies this
weekend. The big backboard man
was out of school Wednesday and
Thursday with a severe cold. The
pels head coach indicated he
would not take any chances with
Tichenor, and the senior hoopster
will not see action "unless it Is
necessary."
Besides Tlchenor's cold, Peter
son was also worried about the
condition of Butch Klmpton, Jun

In Golf Open
' TIJUANA, Mex. (UP) The
second round of the $156,000 pesos
Callente Open Oolf Tournament
gets underway today with a line
field all English speaking
following on the heels of big Mike
Souchak, the former football play
er. No matter what happens In the
next three days, Souchak already
Is a winner. He collected $250
(U.S.) Thursday for breaking the
course record as he fired a seven-under-par
65 on a championship
lay-out.
"It possibly was one of the best
rounds I ever shot In my life."
he said later. "This Is a superior
course. It was a much better round
than the 60 I scored In Texas last
year."
In U.S. cash this Is a $12,500
tournament but the $150,000
price on the spectators' tags looks
nugmy enticing to the touring professionals.
This course measured 6.800
yards Thursday longer than
most championship courses. And
Jt will be 7,207 for the final round
on Sunday which makes Jt one of
the longest Jay-outs Jn North
America,
Despite Ms fine performance
Thursday, Souchak doesn't have
much of a lead. He Is two strokes
In front of the rest of the star
studded field. At 67 came Ralph
Blomqulst, Glendale, Calif., and
Frank Stranahan, Toledo. Ohio, a
pair of seasoned professionals, and
30-year-old Rod Funseth, a slender
long - ball hitter from Spokane,
Wash., who is an amaleur.
At 68 came Tony Holguln, Mid
lothian. 111., and amateur Tim Hol
land, Miami, Fla.
The professionals at 69 were
Fred Haas, Olaremont, Calif.,
Walker Inman, Augusta. Ga.; Bo
Winlnger, Oklahoma City; Ted
Rhodes. Los Angeles, and Tommy
Bolt, Chattanooga, Tcnn.
La.';t weekend while the Pels
were taking two hard rishts to the
chin by Medford, Ashland sur
prised Grunts Pass with a crush
ing 85-81 victory. The Saturday
night win by the Grizzlies earned
the Ashland preppers a split In
their conference outing against the
Cavemen. The 85 points racked up
by the Grizzlies shattered almost
every record for Ashland High

second-night triumph over Grants
Pass, the Grizzlies connected on
41 per cent of their shots from Ihe
field.
With Tichenor "almo.st" out of
the weekend series, Peterson said
he would probably open with Cliff
Sutherland at one of the post posi
tions along with 6-6 Glenn Moore.
The outside positions will find
Donn Taucher and Klmpton, if he
it ready to go, at two of the three
spots, but tiie fifth starter Is still
a toss-up. according to the Pel
mentor. Mike Runge, Lee McGlll,
Orln Perkins, Dave Pepple and
Jerry Burke have all been work
ing for a starting berth this nast
week, and Just which one will be
on the firing line come tip-off
lime lomgnt is unknown.
Ashland's lineup was iuceled
last weekend by coach Al Simp
son, and tne Grizzlies picked up
their first conference win in eight
starts, so the Ashland high coach
Is expected to go with the same
starting live against the Pels this
weekend. Forward Gene Parent
nas been shifted to center and
Dave Woods moved into Parent's
old forward spot. The other open
ing forward slot will probably go
to veteran Phil Sword. Working
lor Asiuand at tne two guard posi
tions will be Harrv Johnson and
Lance Locke. Parent, Sword and
Johnson are all starters from last
year's team.
Stewart Baker, another starter
from last season's quintet will
probably see lots of action against

Name Trustee
To Head Club
LOS ANGELES Wl The em.
battled owners of the Los Angeles
Rams have named a trustee man
ager, Tex Schramm, to handle the
club's affairs, until a settlement
is reached over ownership , and
management.
Dan Reeves, owner of a third of
the club's stock and manager of
the organization for 15 years, has
been asked by his partners, J.H.
Seley, Fred Levy and Ed Pauley,
to relinquish control, and Reeves
says he will get- out of football
altogether before he turns over the
reins to someone else.
"Reeves told me he will settle
for nothing less than a dictator
shipand that's the exact word
he used," said Levy Thursday. "As
buslncsmen and majority stock-
noiaers we leel that we should
have something to say about club
policy on major matters."
Under the ownership sact of
1953, if no agreement on stock
ownership and management is
reached, the partnership is auto
matically dissolved, and a receiver
appointed by the courts and the
stock sold to the highest bidder.
The Rams would bring on some
fancy bids, unquestionably. They
played before nearly 1 million fans
last season and have netted more
Ulan $200,000 profit In some seasons.
Reeves made two offers to his
partners, the first guaranteeing
him permanent control in football
matters with them to share fi
nancially; the second, an offer to
buy them out. Levy said the two
proposals were rejected. Pauley,
Levy and Sely said they had made
two counter proposals, one to buy
him out, the other to give him a
50 per cent control in policy mat
ters. Reeves rejected both proposals.

NY Scout

NEW YORK tM Sidney (Sonny)
Hertzberg would make an excel
lent contestant on the What's My
Line? television program.
Sonny is a scout lor a profes
sional basketball team the New
York Knickerbockers of the Na
tional Basketball Assn. As far as
can be determined he is the only
one In the country with that occu
pation.
He has seen nearly all of the out
standing college players in the na
tion. Today he named the top five
in this order Bill Russell of San
Francisco, Slhugo Green of Du-
quesne, Tom Heinsohn of Holy
Cross, Ron Shavllk of North Caro,
Una State and Lennie Rosenbluth
of North Carolina. All but Rosen
bluth are seniors.
"I'd rate Russell just a shade
ahead of Green." he said. "Rus
sell Is the best big man I've seen
and he has unusual stamina for
someone with his thin appear
ance.
TOP MAN
"But Green Is the top back court
man in the country in my opinion.
He's capable of stepping Into pro
ball right now with any team in
our league.
"Heinsohn, who 11 probably be
the Boston Celtics' first territorial
draft choice, has great potential.
Shavllk is very fast for a big man
and is fine defensively. Rosenbluth
is Just terrific and has definite
pro possibilities."
An NBA team is given first
crack at a college player whose
school is within a 60-mile radius
of the pro team's home grounds.
Players outside of NBA territory
go Into a national draft at the end
of the season with the last-place
team having first choice.
Hertzberg claims that Bill Uhl,
Dayton's seven - foot center, and
Hot Rod Hundley, West Virginia's
prolific scorer, are not quite ready
for pro basketball's major league.
Both are seniors.
EXCEPTIONALLY
"Uhl is exceptionally fast tor a
man of his size," said Hertzberg.
"But I don't think his reflexes are
fast enough right now. He might
have trouble defensively.
"Hundley Is as fine a ball
handler as I've ever seen. Maybe
anomer Boo Cousy. But Hundley
is a clown and you have to be
serious to make good in the NBA.
He'd be better off just concentrat
ing on basketball."
None of the top-ranked college
teams saw action last night. In
fact, the card was the slimmest
of the season, partially because of
midyear examinations. ,
In major competition, Manhat
tan came up with a second-half
.rally to crush Adelphi 90 . 76.
Virginia Tech limited Washington
and Lee to two points in the last
six minutes to post a 60-49 South
ern Conference victory. Hack
Nichols' 26 points led Colgate to
a 76-62 triumph over Cornell.
Texas A&M took the lead in the
first minute and trmained in front
to down Sam Houston State 75-46.
And Morehead trampled Union 122

schools.
