The Tech scraad, finally reach lng the potential coach Wally palmberg had claimed for it de spite a 1-win, 8-loss record prior to the EOC, games, is . crediting their new success to a two-platoon system inaugurated by Palmberg especially for the Wolf invasion Said Palmberg, "We are all happy with the way two - platoon system worked. Us primary pur pose was to get us loosened up, to get us going after the ball. We needed something to get us mov ing and this worked." He added, "I'm proud of the way the boys fought off those let downs and came surging back It's indicative of good attitude and real desire." The platoon system, which takes advantage of two Owl units; one eomnosed of Norm Oliva, Paul Layher, Gene Branson, Dennis Mc- Kee and Charlie Wilson; the other of Troy Koontz, Jack Horton, Bud dy Guill, Roy Johnson and Leon Wilson, will be used again tonight Van Zitek and Jim Ramseyer will stand by as fresh alternates for the number one and two units re spectively.

This system of basketball will not nec essarily be continued throughout the season,- We shall continue to use it only so long as it serves the purpose for which it was intended; just as long it contributes to the overall success of the club."

(AP) - National Football League owners took time out today to sharp their vocal weapons in preparation for what looms as a hot meeting Wednesday, but one of the major issues appears to have settled it self without a shot being fired. The naming of a commissioner to succeed the late Bert Bell was expected to be a major item of business. It still is, but the Acting Commissioner Austirt H. Gunsel seems due to get the job without opposition. This became apparent Monday night when attorney Marshal) Leahy of San Francisco said he would not move from that city. He and Gunsel were the only two mentioned seriously, ' and it was reported the West Coast lawyer had the support of five owners, However, even Leahy s backers had said they would not approve of a commissioner with headquai- ters in the Far West, as 10 of the 12 league teams are east of the Mississippi, so his refusal to come to the East or Midwest because of family ties he has five teen KF Archers Slate Dinner Klamath Archers, Inc., will meet for potluck dinner and prac tice at the indoor range at Farm er's Lumber Company on South Sixth Street, at 6:30 p.m. on Thurs day, according to Barbara Baum- cardner, secretary and publicity chairman for this year. Other new officers elected at the January 7 meeting of the group are Dick Hunt, president, succeed ing Dale Baxter; Bob Young, vice president, succeeding Ed Samples, and Merle Hodges, target captain succeeding Walt Bower. Esther Hodses was acting secretary of the organization. Red Hat Group Suggests Plan SALEM AP) All first-time applicants for hunting licenses should be required to show they have completed a firearms safety training course, the governor's Red Hat Days Committee recom mended Monday. It also recommended that the Lceislature provide a minimum are for obtaining a hunting li cense. There now is no minimum age. The committee said many acci dents last year were caused by juvenile hunters. age daughters apparently elim mated him from consideration. So unless a dark-horse candidate suddenly emerges, or Leahy changes his mind, the new com missioner will be Gunsel. At an informal "hearing" Mon day night representatives of three of the four cities being considered members should the league vote to expand were given an opportunity to boost the merits of their bids for berths. The three were E. W. Boyer, speaking for Minneapolis-St.Paul; Joseph Gricsdieck, beer firm ex ecutive from St. Louis, and Tex Schramm, general manager of the proposed Dallas entry. The fourth, man, George Storer, former owner of the Miami Mar lins basoball club, deferred his Miami application report until later ir the week. Each applicant has posted $25,000 in support of his applica tion. It Aow takes a unanimous vote to admit a new club, but some owners hope a constitutional amendment can be passed to make 10 votes sufficient.

It began with eyes peeled for such touted newcomers as Jerry Lucas of Ohio State, Len Chappell of Wake Forest, Billy (The Hill McGill of Utah and Wayne High- tower of Kansas. Week by week, even game by game, there have been so many additions it's un likely you can pick up an account of a college game without finding a sophomore in a key role.

Just to round it out, Chappell and Packer combined their tal ents as Wake Forest routed Ten nessee 84-57. Cronk hit on 9 of 14 field goal attempts and wound up top scorer with 25 points as he teamed with senior Ron Johnson to crush Illi nois in the second half. Minnesota now has a 3-1 Big Ten record, to 3-0 for Lucas-led Ohio State and 4-1 Iowa, both idle. last night with most of the major college teams concentrating on mid-term exams For Maryland, sophs Kelleher (15) and Jelus (17) combined for 32 points and Kelleher was cred ited with five assists as the Ter rapins moved Into a second-place ACC tie with Duke at 4-1.

They top both offensive and defensive statistics. Coach Pete Newell's club has held opponents to an average of 47.8 points in five league games.
