Army Saturday at Philadelphia The Cadets have a 6-2-1 record Stadium in their 61st meeting be- fore 98,816 fans. Bellino, a senior halfback from Winchester, Mass., whose 104 points make him (.he second high est scorer in the nation's major college ranks, is the key to Navy's well-balanced -offense. Only Duke, which held Bellino scoreless by forcing him inside, has been able to shoot down the high-flying Mid dies who rank No. 7 in the Asso ciated Press poll. Army's attack has been made losing to Penn State and Nebraska and tying Pittsburgh. Their fine! performance in upsetting Syra cuse 9-6 and the statistical edge they held despite their tie with Pitt has drawn solid support to: Coach Dale Hall's Cadets. There will be full pomp and ceremony at the vast concrete sta dium which will house its usual! sellout crowd. The Cadets and Middies will stage customary pa rades before the game with kick off scheduled for 1:30 p. m. and national network (ABC) television coverage. If Navy wins, it may go to ei ther the Cotton Bowl in Dallas where it would meet Arkansas or to the Orange Bowl in Miami where Missouri would be the op ponent. Bellino, the man who set a Navy record by scoring three touchdowns against Army in last: year's 43-12 rout, probably is the most publicized football player in the nation. His 17 touchdowns and spectacular runs make nun a marked man. Only Duke kept Bellino from scoring while the Middies were rolling up an 8-1 record. Bellino also is a threat as a passer when he runs wide and is a superior quick kicker with a 47.1 yard average. Quarterback Hal Spooner's passes to halfback John Prichard end Jim Luper or Bellino balance Bellino's running threat. Army's Blanda, brother of George Blanda of the pro Hous ton Oilers of the American Foot ball League, has thrown more of ten than Spooner (142 to 91) but each quarterback has a comple (ion average of 58 per cent. Spoon-1 er has thrown seven TD passes Blanda eight. Chamberlain Sets Record PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Wilt Chamberlain had just established his ninth new National Basketball Association record and his first this year but the big guy wasn't overjoyed about it. His PfJadelphia Warriors lost I Thursday night to the Boston Cel tics. 132-129, as the Celtics, win-; ning their fifth straight, increased their Eastern Division lead to half a game over the Warriors. Chamberlain's 55 rebounds, which broke Bill Russell's old NBA record of 51 against Syra cuse on Feb. 8, 1959, plus his 34 points had kept the Warriors in the game until Sam Jones and Gene Conley got hot in the final six minutes to pull the Celtics from a 114 tie to victory. Asked how it felt to own the new rebound record, the 7-1 Wilt; said: "Well, I'd have felt a lot bet-; ter if we'd won. We were trying hard to win and the loss takes the luster away from it (the re bound record)." In other NBA games Thursday right, St.- Louis, Western Division leader, . easily defeated Syracuse 132-97 and Los Angeles beat Cin cinnati 108-100.' ELLIOTT EFFORT OFF OXFORD, England (UPD- Herb Elliott, world mile record holder, was unable to give Cam bridge University a two-mile re lay victory over Oxford Univer sity inursday, , oxtord won in 7:39.5 and Elliott's half-mile an chor leg of 1:56.6 for Cambridge was slower than all four Oxford runners, Cornell Boss Fired; Ivy League Rough PHILADELPHIA (AP) - The story is that in the Ivy League they play football for fun. Don't tell that to the coaches. The firing of George K. (Lefty) James by ' Cornell, Thursday marked the fifth head coach to be replaced in the staid old loop since it was formalized in 1956. v Penn, Harvard, Columbia, Brown and now Cornell have in stalled new coaches since the Ivy League presidents announced for malization of the league, and in dicated it expected its coaches to build character. Winning football teams were to be incidental. Robert Kane, Cornell athletic director, confirmed a report that James, 55, had come to the end of the line after 25 years far above Cayuga's waters, 14 as head coach of the Big Red football team. Said Kane, in an announce ment six minutes before the end of the Penn-Cornell game: "Lefty was a competent teacher, given too little time to teach. He did a good job for Cornell. It is doubt ful if anyone could have done bet ter under the circumstances. Cor nell University and all Cornell ians are indebted to him for long, faithful and dignified service." James remained incommuni cado after his team bowed, 18-7, to Penn in the traditional Thanks giving Day game. But Wednesday, in a locker room at the Philmont country club where Cornell stayed for the Penn visit, he told the Associated Press: "H (the firing) hit me like a bombshell. I just didn't expect it." James, asking that his remarks be kept off the record until after! the Penn game, explained he had been called in last Tuesday a week ago ana intormea nis contract would not be renewed. Asked if he had any plans, James said, "I really don't know what I'll do. I'm still confused by the whole thing.". . Cornell had been experiencing tough sledding the past few years. The 1960 team wound up with a record, of 2 victories and 7 defeats. James compiled a 14-year rec ord of 66 victories, 58 defeats and 2 ties.

But not e v e n this. or Mississippi's do-or-die struggle Saturday to gain the national title has taken the luster off one of the toughest Army-Navy games to come down the pike in a long time. The two service schools meet in Philadelphia Stadium Saturday afternoon as the highlight of the final big day of the 1960 college! football season. Mississippi's game against Mis sissippi State could pop a lew brows, at least when the final Associated Press poll is released next week. That is the one that determines the national champion, and Ole Miss, third this week, is going to try and impress the se lectors who have Minnesota, co- champ of the Big Ten and Rose Bowl-bound, presently No. 1 Texas did a bit of impressing Thursday. The Longhorns, 3-3 in mid-October, won their f.ourth straight, 21-14 over Texas A&M to help change Coach Darrell Roy al's mind about forgoing any post season play. Their opponent in the Bluebonnet still is unnamed but Alabama (6-1-1) reportedly has the inside track. 'Bama meets eighth-ranked Auburn Saturday Elsewhere on Thursday, Penn made Cornell Coach Lefty James' swan-song a sad one, beating the Big Red 18-7 while Virginia Tech surprised Southern Conference champion Virginia Military 13-12. All other top-ranked teams have finished their season, but unde feated and untied New Mexico1 State (9-0) goes after its 14th straight victory and the Border Conference crown against Texas Western. However a loss, and a win by second place Arizona, will give the latter the title. Rice (7-2) plays Gator Bowl bound Baylor (7-2), aiming for a victory that would give the Owls a tie for the Southwest Confer ence title and most likely send them to the Sugar Bowl. Arkan sas has already nailed down at least a share of the SWC crown and is in the Cotton Bowl. Florida (7-2), which Thursday night voted to accept a Gator Bowl bid but which also, by SEC rules can't officially say "yes" until its season ends, plays Mi ami (6-2). The Gators are being a bit flexible, and will accept an Orange Bowl bid instead if one comes their way. IPODMr WAYNE SCOTT, Sports Editor Al-2 Stars Go Tonight; B's Ready By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The high school football play offs reach their climax this week end with the big contest coming at Portland between North Salem and David Douglas of Portland for the class A-l crown. They will battle it out at Mult nomah Stadium at 8 o'clock tonight while Myrtle Point and Central of Monmouth - Independence collide for the A-2 crown at Coos Bay. Still a third title contest will send St. Mary's of M e d f o r d against Siletz at Newport Satur day night. About the only sure thing in these contests is that the fields will be slippery from week-long rain. David Douglas rates a slight edge in the A-l final after up setting defending champion Med- lord last weekend. Myrtle Point is a slight favorite in the A-2 final. St. Mary's is the defending champion in the class B final, but Siletz will have the advantage of playing on a familiar field. Little Leaguers Lumberhcks Seek Some Help pn j Cfr;nn.

The Detroit coach was grateful for his team's 23-10 victory Thurs day that just about knocked the Green Bay Packers out of title consideration in the National Football League's Western Divi sion. Two fumbles and a blocked punt led to all but one score in the nationally televised contest. Wilson called it his team's finest game of the year. It brought the Lions' record to 4-5. "We haven't rushed a passer like that in a long, long time, said Wilson. "And that's the big gest thing in football. If you can get to the other club's passer, and protect your own, you can win." Detroit linemen threw quarter backs Bart Starr and Lamar Mc- Han for 60 yards in losses. Detroit's Jim Ninovvski, appear ing before 54,123 fans, tossed for' 182 yards with 19 completions out of 34 tries.
