That's when the craggy-faced, former welterweight and middle weight champion meets welter weight contender Gaspar Ortega of Mexico in a 10 round television fight at Madison Square Garden. "Saturday night will determine whether I go on further," said the veteran of 12 years of pro box ing. : . Carmen, S3, didn't say flatly he will quit if he loses. But it's ob- trinne thai- ika .

I Last spring In the state prep wrestling tournament in Corvallis ' the " Klamath Union Pelican wrestling squad and the Red mond Panthers tied for fourth' ' place and the northern team felt' that they had the edge since they had won three of five previous meetings with the KU club. ' Friday afternoon on Pelican Court, however, there seems a good chance that the KU squad can change all that, although it may not necessarily be easy. The Pels and the Panthers tangle at ; 2:30. , While the varsity grapplers are settling their differences, simul taneous action on two more mats will pair the Redmond Jayvee team and the KU JV's, 'and Mc laughlin Junior High School and the KUHS freshman teams. Despite the fact that the Pelican ' team has won.-.30 matches, lost only six and. drew in two while ' compiling huge point totals in . their first three bouts of the sea eon, coach DeLance Duncan has seen to it that there is no laxity nor letdown in preparations for "pins" while allowing their earlier the weekend action. Saturday the foe only two. Gary Head and Pelicans travel to Bend for a con- Gary Hancock have three apiece test with the Bend Lava Bears on both the varsity and Jayvee levels. The f r o s h squad, under the direction of coach Lloyd Ma- nown, will go to Ashland lor a match with the Grizzly Cubs Saturday. According to coach DeLance Duncan, the Redmond squad, while possibly not quite as strong as in the past, will be one of the three toughest opponents the Pels will face all season. The Panthers have always been proud of their "takedown" abil ity and have proven their superi ority in that department, how ever, the Pels are accorded the edge in "mat" wrestling. Redmond recently lost to Leb anon, one of the strongest squads In the stale, in a dual meet, and they took second in the David Douglas Tournament prior to the holiday. ' : s On the credit side of the ledg er the Pelicans have scored 16 Louisville Cagers Win 12th Straight while Jim Lone, Milo Crumrine, Dale Crumrine, Bob Mitchell and Art Mills each have chalked up a pair. The varsity lineup, by weights, for the weekend includes: Jim Long 98; Gary Head 106; Milo Crumrine 115; Sherd Duncan or Gary Leavitt at 123; Ross Griggs at 130; Dale Crumrine at 136; Bob Mitchel' 141; Dave Gonzales 148; Larry Wishart 157; Dick Ewing 168; Art Mills 178; Joe Cox at 191 and heavyweight Gary Hancock. I The Jayvee squad lists Merle Sine, Loren Ambers, Dawson South, ' Mike Collins, Dave Vet- kos, Jim McClung, Tom Miles, Larry Gibbs, Dan Herrera, Ron Head, Vern Nelzer, Dean Met- calf, Henry Swisegood, Bruce Campbell and Duane Fitzsinv mons. The Jayvee squad is one of the strongest in years at KU. They have also won three matches, scoring 136 points to only 12 for their collective foe.

Colgate 82 SOUTH Houston, NY Player-Plan Under Study NEW YORK (AP)-The Nation al League, following the "sane and orderly" route to expansion pre scribed by Commissioner Ford Frick, has set up a committee to study means of securing players for Houston and New York, the clubs to be added in 1962. At the same time, major league club owners will decide, in a mail vote, whether to allow the new- comers to enter into working agreements with minor league clubs this season to develop players. The five-man committee com posed of general managers is to make a report to the National League at its mid-summer meet ing. The results of the mail vote, which would give Houston and New York a chance to sign free agents and call them up from the minors at the end of this season, should be known within two weeks or so. That's a relatively leisurely pace compared to the American League's hurried and harried ex pansion program, which burst upon the scene in October and which calls for a 10-team opera tion when the 1961 season opens in April. The two new American League clubs Los Angeles and Washing ton drew their players from a cash-for-castoffs pool at $75,000 each and in a special, and limited, minor league draft. The pool arrangement, In which the established clubs wound up with untried youngsters, fringe players and hangers-on, is some thing the National League would like to avoid. We'll provide major league players for our new clubs," said the National League president Warren Giles, "but how they will be set aside, or how much of a cash value will be placed on them still has to be worked out. "We don't have to hurry into it as the American League did We have until October to decide. The committee that will study the problem of player procure ment is comprised of John Quinn, Philadelphia; Bing Devine, St. Louis, Joe Brown, Pittsburgh; John McHale, Milwaukee, and Buzzie Basavi, Los Angeles. The Chittcnango (N.Y.) clouter used to beat down his foes with slashing left-rights to the body. Despite this obvious slowdown, Basilio has been made a 7-5 choice over Ortega. Basilio has agreed to make 155 pounds. He will just about hit on the head, he said today. Ortega will weigh about 150. Senior Bowl Gridders Set MOBILE, Ala.

Howe, one of hockey's all-time greats, suffered a concussion and a gash over his right eye that re quired 10 stitches when he col lided with Toronto's Eddie Shack in a game between the Red Wings and Maple Leafs at Toronto.

Asked how his players feel, now that they've had some time to digest their 17-7 loss to Washing ton in the Rose Bowl, Warmath said: ' They feel a lot like I do. We can't change the scoreboard now. We might as well forget about that part of it. 'But otherwise it s been a fins trip. Everything about it has been wonderful." Warmath, who was regularly hanged in effigy during Minneso ta's fulile 1959 season, had little to say about his most recent hang ingin Duluth after Monday's Rose Bowl game. .- "That was in a different place (not Minneapolis)," he said, "and I don't know anything about it."
