HOUSTON. Tex. (tlPI) The
: American Football League opened
; its annual meeting in Houston to
day amid speculation that the
-league office would be shifted
;from Dallas to New York.
- None of the eight owners preS'
, nt for the young league's second

the report, but speculation was
strong that the headquarters shift
would be brought up at the two
day session which opened today
Other than tha office shift if
It it brought up the gathering is
xpected to be relatively quiet and
orderly, in contrast witn last Jan
uary's session when owners were
getting ready to play in their first
season and when they award'
ed the eighth franchise to Oak'

Another topic which might come

.prevalent recently, but commis
rsioner Joa Foss said, "As far as

: Any franchise transfer requires

'along with "half dozen other

He noted that despite expansion
of pro football from U to 22 teams
in 19W, there still was a backlog

Keeping the other team from

the hoop yourself.
The Santa Clara Broncos, lead
ing defensive team in the nutlon
convincingly demonstrated this
Wednesday night in Honolulu
when they downed the host Ha
waii Rainbows, 6M9.
The score is misleading as the
B rones forced the islanders to
shoot from the outside all through
the first half. Hawaii could hit
only 6 of 29 in the first half as
the Broncs grabbed an impressive
34-17 halftime lead. The Rain
bows made the score respectable
against the Bronc bench-w armors
in the second half.
A1 Birtles scored 23 for the
losers, while the big soph. Genu
Shields, hit 14 to lead a well-bal
anced Bronc attack.
The victory gave the tall Broncs
an 11-4 season record, best of the
West Coast Athletic Conference
teams. Santa Clara and Hawaii
will meet in rematch Friday.

Over Downes
BOSTON (AP) - Havinir two
champions in one division makes

are concerned.
Take the middlewcights, for in
stance. Paul Pender of Brookline.
Mass., is recognized as world
champion of the 160-pound class
by Massachusetts, New York and
most of Europe. Gene Fullmer of
West Jordan, Utah, is hailed as
king of the division by the Na
tional Boxing Association.
Because it can be billed as a
title fight, the fourth Fullmer-
Sugar Ray Robinson battle on
Feb. 25 has been sold to television
for $150,000.
The same goes for the Pender
Terry Downc scrap at the Boston
Arena Saturday night. This one
went for $65,000 to TV. Of this
Pender will receive $35,750 on his
55 per cent cut of the TV fee, and
Downes, the English champion,
will collect $13,000 on his 20 per
cent.
If Pender didn't own a niece of
the crown, the fighters probably
wouldn't receive more than the
usual $4,000 each for the televi
sion.

At Meeting
PITTSBURGH (AP)-On
heels of the North Carolina pro
bation case the National Colle
giate Athletic Association has put
recruiters of high school athletes
on a no-cash basis.
Legislation adopted at the busi
ness session of the 55th annual
NCAA convention Wednesday stip
ulated that colleges may not pay
the expenses, of athletic talent
scouts. It was also ruled that a
member college may not put a
recruiter on the payroll and claim
him as a staff member.
The legislation was drafted in
advance of the disciplinary action
Tuesday that placed North Caro
lina on probation for a year and
barred the school's seventh-ranked
basketball team from the national
championships.
But it was recalled by conven
tion delegates that one of the
charges against North Carolina
involved unitemized expense ac
counts turned in by semi-official
recruiter Harry Gotkin, who scout
ed high school basketball players
in the New York area.
Wednesday's convention climax
was one of the longest ever but
the NCAA gathering was expected
to wmd up quickly today with a
routine morning meeting of the
council.
Recruiting rules were also tight
ened by the adoption of a measure
which requires persons paying for
the transportation of an athlete
on a visit to a college campus to
accompany the athlete. The NCAA
feels boosters won't encourage so
many campus visits if they have
to make the trips themselves.

Cubans Await
USA Rulings;
'Green Light'
By BOB BERRELLEZ '
HAVANA (AP)-Cuban baseball
players are awaiting some anx
iouslyclarification of their status
as members of United States ma
jor and minor league clubs.
The rupture of U.S.-Cuban rela
tions last week threw a cloud over
the future participation of Cubans
in organized baseball in the
states. But baseball authorities
here are confident the U.S. State
Department will give the green
light to Cuban players.
Felipe Guerra, Cuban sports di
rector, has announced there will
be no restrictions imposed on Cu
ban players: requesting exit per
mits to play abroad.
Washington's official attitude
about issuing baseball visas still
is not known. In the past Cubans
entered the United Stales under
special permits renewable annu
ally. It has been a practice for'a club
to which the player or players be
longed to make visa requests on
then behalf via the State Depart
ment. It is not known here if any
club thus far has made the usual
visa request for Cubans.
American clubs have a good
sized investment in Cuban talent.
Nearly 200 Cuban players are tick
eted for action in the major and
minor leagues this season. Be
tween 14 and 19 of them carry
big league credentials for spring
training, at least.

reaching his decision.
Molinas had sued .for reinstate

also charged the league had

To Lead
Pelicans'
All-state center, 6-7 senior Bruca
Brickner, was chosen captain of
the 1961 Klamath Union Pelican
basketball team by his teammates
this week al a special election
held in the club's conference
room prior to practice.
Brickner gets his first chance to
perform as the team leader thit
weekend when the Pelicans trav
el to Medford Friday for an all
important Southern Oregon Con
ference struggle with the vaunted
Black Tornado.
The game will break a tie for
the top spot in the league, each
team sporting a 3-0 mark in SOC
action to date. ' '
Both the Pels and the Tornado
have conquered the remainder ol
the .league member clubs in
convincing style.
Friday night's feature attraction
on the McLoughlin Junior High
court, Medford's home floor, will
be preceded by a game pitting
the Jayvee units of bSth schools.
The prelim will begin at 6:30 p.m.
At the same time the sophomore
squads will square, away on an
other court.
According to Medford athletie
director Lee Ragsdale, there are
only a very few reserved seati
available and a standing-room
only rush is expected to be made
early on general admission seats,
which will be available at t h
door Friday night.
The only game scheduled in

brings the Ashland Pups to tne
Oregon Tech gym Saturday after

The Pels draw a bye Saturday

Pelican preparations for tha

suffered during prac
