IUP1I The to undisclosed Philadelphia inter- ; smallest city in the National Bas ;kctball Association ended a 17 year professional cape history Wednesday night with the an iounced move of the Syracuse 'Nationals to Philadelphia -' Just before midnight, Dan Bia- sone, president of the National . Basketball Association (NBA) club, said he had sold the Nats Hearing Set May 24th On Hunting ;Big game hunters are advised .lhat a public hearing to consider '.proposals for the l!Ki3 big game -'hunting regulations is scheduled by the game commission Fri day, May 24, in Room 36 of the State Office Building in Port land. The hearing will begin at 10 a.m. At this meeting the game com mission will hear proposals for regulations on the fall hunts for deer, e I k and antelope. Fol lowing the hearing tentative regu lations for the 1963 season will ; be established. These tentative ; rules will be published and sent to all news media in the state. I Follow ing an interval of two weeks, a second public hearing will be held on June 7, at which time the commission will adopt the final Regulations for the fall hunts. Any changes to the tenta tive rules as previously proposed w ill be made at the June 7 meet ing and will become final for the 193 seasons. Hunters are reminded of the place of tlie scheduled meetings. Because of the added interest shown by big game hunters dur ing the past year, the commis ;pn scheduled a largo meeting ;4!rm at the State Office Building ;Juated at 1400 S.W. Fifth Ave ;dne in Portland. Previously, the commission has held the hear ings at its Portland headquar ters. All interested persons are invit ed to attend. csts for $500,000 "I've been fighting for years to keep this team here." he said, appearing deeply moved. "I feel badly that this had to come about. Because of the increasing costs of operations, it simply got to be impossible to continue Dwindling support and attend ance has caused sale rumors for some time. Each year, the stocky, fiery Biasnne denied them sometimes violently. Philadelphia had been repre sented in the NBA until the end of the 1061 - 62 season when the Warriors moved to San Francisco. Only New York and Boston re main as NBA charter members. Biasone said he lost $.19,000 last season and expected to lose $100,000 if the Nats continued in Syracuse next season. loacnea oy Aiex nannum tasi season, the Nats finished second in the Eastern Division of t h e NBA with a 48-32 record. They were eliminated by the Cincinna ti Royals in the opening round of the playoffs. Civitan Open Set Today MUSKOGEE, Okla. (UPll-Thc $9000 Muskogee Civitan Open got underway today with most of the leading women pro golfers except defending champ Patty Berg in the field of 33. Miss Berg, who won the Civi tan last year with a 290, notified tournament officials t h a t an in jured hand will keep her out this year. The private little battle be tween lop money winner Mickey Wright and up-and-coming Mari ln Smith was expected to con tinue through the 72-hole tour ney. Miss Smith has won (wo of the six tournaments this year and lost another in a playoff with .Miss Wright, Miss Smith has won $9452 so far this year, her best .start since joining the tour in 1957. Lemon Twist and Country Squire are expected to join that of Cha teaugay, completing the field of seven. Although he won the Kentucky Derby by a length and one-half, Chateaugay once again finds him self cast in the rule of underdog For Candv Spots, third in the Kentucky Derby, is pre-race fa vorite at 7-5 with Never Bend, .econd at Churchill Downs, sec ond choice at 2-1. Chateaugay ranks third at 5-2. Candy Spots, winner of the Santa Anita derby and the Flor ida Derby this year, suffered his only defeat in the Kentucky Derby, many observers blaming jockey Willie Shoemaker for his third place finish. Shoemaker again rides the son of Nigromante. who now boasts six wins in seven races. Never Bend, winner of the Fla mingo Stakes and the champion juvenile of 1962, will be ridden by Manny Ycaza. The colt is ranked better than Chateaugay because several of his races prior to the Kentucky Derby were easy vic tories and he is expected to im prove with a tough race now be hind him. But Conway warns that Cha teaugay will be better too. The trainer no longer is concerned about a fast workout by the Darby Dan farm colt on Tuesday morning when Chateaugay equalled the track record for the mile. The track is faster than I had believed it to be and Chateaugay hasn't missed an oat s i n c e the work, either. He'll be all right for the race, I'm sure of that now, the trainer saiu bclorc leaving for New York. Braulio Bacza again rides Cha teaugay just as he did in the Kentucky Derby with the son of Swaps out to prove his Kentucky Derby was not a fluke. TAG COMES TOO LATE Dodger catcher John Rose boro makes the tag but Is too late as Philadelphia's Roy Sievers scores the first run off Sandy Koufax at Dodger Stadium in 29 innings. Koufax, who won his last game pitching a nohit game, received credit for the win al s was pulled for a pinch hitter and Vas in the room when the Dodgers won on Ron Fair!1 though h dressing room when the Dodgers won on Ron rainy s single in tho 12th inning to score Jim Gilliam. Koufax did not walk a man in 12 innings. UPI Telephoto t?y y Policeman Credited By Tony Lema As Getting Him Into Pro Golfing Oklahoma City Open Starting OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI I crowded cast of 148 professionals and 10 amateurs began their as sault on the Quail Creek Country Club course today in the first round of the $.15,000 Oklahoma City Open golf tournament. Defending champion Doug San- ders, Colonial National Invitation al winner Julius Boros and New Zealand southpaw Bob Charles, who took the Houston Classic two weeks ago, headline the field. While it is one of the best groups ever to play in this five- year-old tournament, pro golf's Big Three" Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Gary Player are passing it up for a rest. Par on the 7.050-yard layout is 36-3672, and tight fairways with, out-of-bounds markers face golf ers on most holes. Sanders engineered a truly re markable comeback to w i n tlie $5,300 first prize money last year. As the final round began, the jaunty Cahfornian was six strokes behind the leader, Texan Don Massengalc. Rut Sanders staged a furious rally and shot a 5-under-par 67 while Mussengaw stumbled. San ders capped his onslaught with a 22-foot eagle putt In win by two strokes over Johnny Pott. Mas- sengale wound up lour strokes ofl tlie pare. By OSCAR FRALEY i'PI Sports Writer RYE, N Y. (UPI) If he hadn't been stopped by a motorcycle cop for speeding, Tony Lema re called today, he never would have become a professional and the newest of the big fairway stars. He had been a caddy; shipyard worker and cannery machine op erator before going into the Ma rincse. Shipped home from Korea for discharge, he had played in the Parris Island Marine tourna ment. But I didn't know what I was going to do, he remembered Maybe I'd have gone back to the cannery and been a mechan ic by now. 11 all changed for him when he was speeding home to Oakland. There was the wail of a siren and Tony knew he had been "had." Cop Recognizes Lema His first break came when the policeman recognized him and pitched a salute at his Marine uniform. The planned ticket was forgotten as they chatted and the policeman asked him what he planned to do. "I Just don't know," Lema said. Well, you always were a pret ty good golfer." said the officer. "They're looking for an assistant pro at the San Francisco Coun try Club. Why don't you give it a try?" Tony did, and landed the job that same day in 1955. He was there two years and then took a post at Elko, Nov., but still wasn't content with lieing a teaching professional. I wasn't too sure I make the grade as a tournament i "I still didn't think I was very golfer," he reflected as he tuned 'good." h" added. "For five years up at Westchester Country Club where he will be one of the stars of the Thundcrbird Classic June 13-16. Enters Last Event There was only one way to find out, so Lema went to the Sanford, Fla., Open, the last event of 1957, hoping to finish high enough to qualify for the Los Angeles Open, first event of 1958. He far exceeded his expec tations, winding up seventh and earning $725. His wasn't one of those imme diate success stories, however. my theory was that I'd probably never be back to any of those places on the tour again so I'd better have a good time." Tony had a good time. But he didn't win any tourna ments. About a year ago he met an airline stewardess named Betty Cline. It changed Tony's whole outlook. "When we got serious, I got serious," said the bridegroom of two weeks. Victories Come Hard But his first two victories came the hard way. He finally won his first official tournament, the Orange County, after a play off with Bob Rosburg, and his second, the El Ccntro, after a playoff With Paul Harney. Lema's aim now is to smash through in one of the big ones. He came close, finishing one shot back of Jack Nicklaus in the Masters a (or a final round 70. The next day he played the Au gusta course with some of the "wheels" and fired a 67 that came one day late.

Lipscomb achieved his greatest fame while helping the Colts win two straight NFL titles in 1958 and '59 and earning recognition as the game's top dciensive tackle. Many of the NFL's top stand outs who played both with and against Lipscomb also attended. The pallbearers were six football players John Henry Johnson. John Sample, Lenny Moore, Jim Parker, Dick (Night Train) Lane and Sherman Plunkett.
