team In the league with 6(16 points
in nine games for an average
of just better than 67 points per
game. The Pelicans are averag-
Ing 49 points per contest. But the
Pelicans have a slightly better
defensive average, 397 points to
452 for Crater.
Crater is the fastest team in
Die league and this speed must
be shut off or slowed down to
the Pelicans pace if they are to
win. The Pelicans have the height
on Cralcr but not the speed. If
they can slow down Crater's
speed and use Ihcir advantage of
height on the boards, they could
win the contest. Here's hoping.
We've been doing a little re
search on Oregon Tech after their
big 96-92 victory over Southern

fifth straight league victory. They

But while looking over the rec

some sort of record other than a

beaten t he Junior College team

The best record established by
the Owls was last year when they

The Owls are rapidly gaining
the nickname nf the "iron-man

country. The reserve strength is
pretty shallow after the first five
of Smith, Anderson, Hewlett Nash

they have been doing all right for
themselves.

This piece of news has been
lying on Ihe desk for quite some

printed before now. But anyway,
here it is. A former Klamath
Kalis man has made basketball
news.

To Tangle
The Henley wrestling team
hopes to gain some restitution to
night on Pelican Court when they
take on the Pelican wrestling
team which swamped them in the
last outing by winning all the
matches but one.
The Hornets, a Class A-2 school
which is a strong team in the
class division, had its troubles
last week with the strong Peli
cans and dropiied a 44-3 decision
at Henley. Coach Bob Creed thinks
his Hornet team is stronger than
the score indicated.
This will be the first match of
two in two nights for the Pels.
They will go to Crater for a con
ference battle Saturday. But Hen
ley is probably a stronger team
than the Comets who haven't fared
loo well yet this season.
Coach Delance Duncan of KU
probably will go with a lineup
like this: Mike Christy 98. Dave

NEW YORK (UPU-The owner
of the Baltimore Colts wound up
in the middle nf the National
Football League's fast-spreading
gambling investigation, today
while Commissioner Pete Rozelle
presumably was considering lines
or suspensions against the Detroit
Lions' organization.
The Miami Herald said in a
front page story thai sealed tes

by federal court order.
Michael J. McLancy, one-time
asino owner in Havana and now
an investment broker in Miami,
brought the suit against Rosen-
bloom in 1960 and il was subse
quently dismissed.
In his suil, McLancy made cer
tain charges against Rosenbloom
pertaining lo his helling on foot
ball games.
Confirms Questioning
The Herald said (hat Rosen-
bloom's lawyer in New York,
Icrome Doyle, confirmed that the
Colts owner had been questioned
about betting on Baltimore
games.
Doyle added, however, that
under oath, he (Rosenbloom) de
nied it (belting) categorically."
Rnsenbloom's attorney added
that the Colt owner needed the
estimony, which he turned over
In Rozelle, according tn the Her
ald, to protect himself against
harges "which, if unanswered.
will jeopardize" the Colls' foot
hall franchise.
McLancy originally brought the
suit against Rosenbloom over a

mony was scaled by (cdcral
lodge Joseph A. Lieb on Jan. 5,
1961.

las MacArthur, backed by the

The AAU is recognized by in

answer to a direct question.
Walker nodded affirmatively
also.
"I think the investigation is just
about over as far as we're con
ccrned." said the 200-pound Walk
er, a linebacker and placekickcr
with the bions.
But is it?
A Detroit newspaper said
Thursday night that Rozelle was
"considering" fining the Lions'
management, or head coach
George Wilson, for failure to en
force player contract clauses
dealing with off-field activities.
This report naturally led to an
other question. If the Detroit club
and-or Wilson is facing a possible
fine, what sort of punishment is
being prepared for Karras and
Walker?
Rozelle wasn't talking aside
from repeating his now time-worn
statement that "an announcement
will be made when the entire in
vestigation of rumors has been
complelcd."

LOS ANGELES (UPIl - Col
lege athletes will be conspicuous
by their absence Saturday night
in the fourth annual Los Angeles
Invitational indoor track and field
meet but there will be champions

Smith said, however, he has
entries in every even, from past

A sampling of the entry list
turns up such names as: Roscoc

holders of the world indoor rec
ord of six seconds flat; Otis Da

Littler Blew I'p
While Boros was having his
fine day, another former Nation
al Open champion, Gene Littler,
blew to a big 8.1 possibly Ihe
highest score he ever has taken
in a PGA tournament.
And he wasn't the only one
having trouble. Duff Lawrence,
considered a line young pro pros
pect on the tour had an 87; and
Bob Bruno, a club pro from Il
linois, had a SO. Bob Goalby. a
big winner every vcar on the
tour, had an 82.
Close to Boros came big George
Bayer, long-hitting Paul Harney,
and little Davey Hill, each with
fiS. And at (lils came Phil Rodg
crs and Gene Bone.
The three courses on which this
tournament is played are Pebble
Beach. Cypress Point and Mont
erey Peninsula Country Club. The
weather was comfortahly warm
and there was very little wind.
Six Broke Par
But only six players were able
to break 70 compared with 4.1
who cracked into the sixties dur
ing the first round of the San
Diego Open last week.
Favored Arnold Palmer came
in with a 70, after taking a double-bogey
five on the famous 222
yard 16th at Cypress Point. Na
tional Open champion Jack Nick-
laus had a 71 and Gary Plaver,
who won at San Diego, had a 73.
All played at Cypress Point.
Defending champion Doug Ford
had a 75 and former National
Open champion Jack Fleck had
to settle for a 73.
In the pro-amateur division.
