Newest Redskin Boss Sets Timetable For WASHINGTON (AP) Bill Mc Peak, at 34 the youngest head coach in the National Football League, has given himself a -year ' to prod the drooping Washington '. Redskins out of their losing rut. And he may be the kind of whip cracker who can do it although no other Redskin coach in the past decade or more has been able to make the once proud team a winner.

Ashcraft claimed that particu lar deer hunt was a mistake be cause game laws at that time were inadequate to control t h e, number of deer killed in a certain area or to control hunter concen tration. Legislation passed since that time provides for unit manage ment on a deer herd basis and allows controlled hunting. Ashcraft maintains the only way to insure "specimen bucks for; the sportsman is to manage deer herds in such a way as to allow for the proper proportion of bucks to mature on the various deer ranges. "If doe hunting isn't a sport, it is a duty, Ashcraft said. To substantiate this statement. he pointed out that in spot deer counts this past week in North em California, only a very small proportion of the deer observed were bucks. In a limited check of the Mt. Dome area near Dorris, on Fri day, more than 100 deer were counted, but onlv four were bucks. Ashcraft defended the depart ment's efforts to control deer herds. "We didn't create over-grazed areas, he said, we inherited them." He said that harassment from Weed and Dunsmuir rod and gun clubs has hampered the establish ment of firm deer management policies in the area. He said I Yreka, Mount Shasta, McCloud and Scott Valley sportsmen looked favorably on past policies of the departmentbut added these men were less vocal than others, Deer hunting did suffer in Siski you County in 1957 and 1958 after the antlerless shoot of 1956, Fish and Game statistics show. But re covery was evident in 1969 and 1960. The average buck kill in the Mt. Dome herd in the past five years has been 840 bucks. "It woud be safe to issue at least 840 antlerless permits annual ly for hunting on the Mt. Dome Range," Ashcraft said. Chamberlain Holds Margin NEW YORK (AP)-Wilt Cham berlain has slipped a bit in game- average, but The Stilt of the Philadelphia Warriors still leads Elgin Baylor of Los Angeles in the National Basketball Association scoring race. Chamberlain out-scored Baylor 132-105 in four games last week and official statistics today showed he has a 36.9 average and a 51-point lead in total points.

Oscar Robertson of Cincinnati is third in scoring with 929. Win back In to help clean up. Despite the Owls' big edge in the opening frame, the game total showed the two clubs almost even up at the final gun. The winnin, oiuerence lor me leenmen was two extra field goals and a foul shot. Each team collected 24 fouls over the distance. The OTI five hit 27 field goals lo 25 for the losers and were successful on 23 of 32 tries from the foul line while the Crusaders got 22 of 36 attempts. Field goal shooting percentages registered in the early .400's for both teams. Guard Leon Wilson, one of the most consistent Owl scorers. notched a total of 20 points off six driving layups resulting from hsi ball-stealing ability and 8 for 12 at the charity stripe. Petersen, who again exercised control of the boards, counted nine points for his night's work.

But two quick baskets by Arritola and single field goals by Larry Applegate and Dick Turley pulled the Mountaineers out of danger. They built up a 13-point lead, 90-77, but the clock ran out on the Polar Bears before they could mount another serious threat. Open liouse...

California (5-0) de feated Northwestern 62-40 in the first game of the Chicago Stadium IOC Prexy Asking Ban On Champs CHICAGO (AP)-Banning Olym pic champions from future games has been suggested by President Avery Brundage of the Interna tional Olympic Committee as an aid to competition. Brundage said Monday that such a restriction might open the games to more people and lessen the chances of athletes "making career out of sports. The proposal, along with others aimed at protecting the amateur status of the games. and reducing their size, Brundage said, will be discussed at "an extremely im portant" meeting of the commit tee in Athens next June. "We have been talking about doing something about amateur ism for a long time, but this time we will act," said Brundage, long time champion of simon-pure ath letics. He did not disclose the oth er proposals. The 1964 games will be held In Tokyo, with the Winter Olympics that year in Innsbruck, Austria. Of last summer's elaborate games in Rome, Brundage com mented: "There was so much commotion after the games that we have sent a letter to all na tional committees warning against subsidized training camps and such like as a means of building national prestige. That would be entirely contrary to the Olympic spirit. i "The games are too. big and too expensive,"! continued Brun- e. There has been too much commercialization, and we are against that, too." " American Olympic officials, de clining to be identified, said they do not believe Olympic cham pions will be barred as Brundage has suggested. However, they said they feel such a rule would help, the unit ed States more than any otherl country because this country at ways has a large crop of new talent, while other countries rely on veterans for two and even three flings at the Olympics, held every four years.
