o Techmen Get Set For Three Thursday night in the Oregon Tech gym the.OTl Owl basket. ball team swings into its second straight three-game series when Chico State appears for a single game starting at 8 o'clock Friday night the Owls square off against the Humboldt State Lumberjacks in the first of a two came session. The Owl five is showing no ill effects of the three-day siege in Portland at the District NAIA Tipoff Tourney, and aren't t h e least bit discouraged in spite of the fact they were stopped in all three games. Said coach Wally Palmberg, "Losing to any of those ball clubs was no crime . . . they were all good teams. I am satisfied that we will do well come conference play. Oregon College shows a lot. of size and talent and they arc going to be tough this season but I think we 11 have jelled by con ferenee time ... so we'll be okay." Owls Bob Petersen and Van Zi tek came back from Portland with a mark or two from the rugged combat. Petersen, although he missed a practice because of it, is toughing out a sore hand result ing from a bone chip on a knuckle. The hand is tightly ban daged. Zitck took a whack in the eye that is causing him trouble. Monday afternoon the Techmen returned to the practice tloor ana will continue workouts through Wednesday. Palmbera is not certain of his lineup for the coming test with Dowerful Chico State but ne nas shifted things around to make room for Charlie Wilson at a pos- sible back-court slot. Wilson, the football star who is the brother of little Leon Wilson who topped all the NAIA tourney scorers with 60 Doints in three games, was a starter on the 1959 squad. Palmbera will probably use Petersen, big Gene Branson and Hewlett Nash at the remaining starting positions. AFL Drafts Top Talent DALLAS. Tex. (API The young American Football League flexed its muscles today and pointed to all the top college talent it had drafted. Nine of the All Americas, in cluding the great Joe Bellino of Navy, were included in the 240 players selected in 30 rounds. The draft, started two weeks ago, was finished Monday night. Bellino was the nineteenth choice of.. Boston. William H. Sullivan Jr., president of the Boston club, explained that while "Bellino is all they say he is a great foot ball player we picked him down the list because he has probably four years to serve with the Navy. We had to draft those immediate ly available at the top." The All Americas drafted be side Bellino were Dan LaRose, Missouri end, taken by Boston; Mike Ditka, Pittsburgh end, se lected by Houston; Ken Rice. Au burn tackle, drafted by Buffalo; Bob Lilly, Texas Christian tackle, selected by Dallas; Tom Brown, Minnesota guard, picked by New York: Jake Gibbs, Mississippi! quarterback, taken by Houston; Ben Balme, Yale guard, drafted by Los Angeles, and Pervis At kins, New Mexico State back, se lected by Oakland, All were high up except Bdlinoi, ,& and Balme. who was picked in the twenty-fourth round.

Two of the games sched uled are league "counters" while the others have no bearing on league standings. In B league action a county champion is crowned at the ter mination of the regular season but the team to represent the area in the state playoffs is deter mined by the annual B basketball tournament which will be held at Oregon Tech beginning Feb. 21. In one league game this eve ning the Chiloquin Panthers, win ner of the Northern Jamboree on the weekend, go up against the NFL Heads Toss Coins For Playoffs NEW YORK (AP)-Coins were to be flipped today at National Football League headquarters! here to determine playoff pair-j ings in event of a tie in the West ern Division where three cluos now are deadlocked for first place. Baltimore, -Green Bay and San Francisco are tied, each with 6-4 records and with two games to go before the end of the regular schedule. Actually, five teams have a chance, with the Chicago Bears at 5-4-1 and Detroit next at 5-5. All five teams were represented but Commissioner Pete Rozelle narrowed it down to a 3-way deadlock to simplify the pro cedure. The Philadelphia Eagles clinched the Eastern Division title Sunday and will meet the West ern winner in Philadelphia. The original date is Dec. 26, but will be changed if there is a dead lock. Rozelle set aside two playoff dates to take care of a triple tie. Teams A and B would meet Dec. 26, with the winner playing team C Jan. 1. The Western champion then would play the Eagles in Philadelphia Jan. 7. In event of a 4-way deadlock, eliminations would be played Dee. 26. with the two survivors clash ing for the Western crown Jan. 1.

In Roseburg the Pels dropped a 64-62 overtime squeaker on Fri day, then roared back in the clos ing minutes of the second game to collect a 78-73 victory. It is hoped that (he Roseburg game films will be available for showing at the Pelican Booster Club meeting in the Chuck Wagon Restaurant at 6:30 Wednesday night. The Indians made movies of both games and have promised that they would ship them to Klamath Falls in time for the meeting. The Booster Club meeting is open to all KF fans, whether they are club members or not, and a large turnout is expected. Coach Dean Whit e, who will put his squad through speedy workouts through Thursday aft ernoon in preparation for the Springfield invasion, reported that he was highly satisfied with the performance of his club in Rose burg. Said White, "It's too bad the. series couldn't have been played here so local fans could get a true picture of just how great this Jarvis (Jim, Indian guard who scored 30 points the first night and 36 the second) really is.

"We insist on moving to Los Angeles in 1061," American League President Joe Cronin told the commissioner. "Now it's up to vou."

"If this proposal is not accept ed, the American League has no alternative but to adopt its amend ment of Rule 1 lo place a team in Los Angeles next year." Assuming the National League stands firm and rejects the Amer ican League's latest proposal, Frick must decide between the two leagues.

(UPI) - There is, no way of telling whether a crim inal element still operates in box ing's shadowy background but, promoter Chris Dundee asserted today, the sport "isn't big enough any more to attract a real rack eteer." There could be a suspicion of this analysis in view of former International Boxing Club Presi dent Truman Gibson's testimony before the Kcfauver committee that jailed mobster Frankie Car bo manipulated a national boxing network. Gibson also testified that Dundee once used Carbo's influence in an attempt to obtain certain closed circuit television rights for a championship fight. "That s a lot of bunk." Dundee snorted. "If he was so big and went to bat for me, doesn't it seem likely I'd have gotten it?"
