Dwindling support and attend

some time. Each year, the
stocky, fiery Biasnne denied them
sometimes violently.
Philadelphia had been repre

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

$100,000 if the Nats continued in
Syracuse next season.

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.

City Open golf tournament.
Defending champion Doug San-

weeks ago, headline the field.

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.

Respects
Are Paid
Lipscomb
DETROIT (UPIi - Relatives,
friends, players and fans paid
their final respects to Gene (Big
Daddy i Lipscomb Wednesday.
An overflow crowd that spilled
out onto the lawn of a local fun
eral home attended the funeral for
the 290-pound giant who came off
the Detroit sandlots to become one
of the National Football League's
most feared and yet best liked
player.
The honorary pallbearers who
attended were Art Rooney, the
owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
the team that Lipscomb played
his last game for, Rooney's son
Dan. and Don Kcllert, the general
manager of the Baltimore Colls.
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.
Lipscomb, who was one of the
few NFL standouts who didn't play
college ball, was discovered by
the Los Angeles Rams while play
ing Marine ball. He didn't make
it big until traded to the Colts in
1956. He w as traded to Pittsburgh
in 1961.
In Baltimore Wednesday, doc
tors rcKiited that Lipscomb's
death last Friday was due to an
overdose of heroin.

DeJordy Selected MVP
In American Hockey Loop
NEW YORK (UPI) - Denis
DeJordy, the Buffalo Bisons
steady netminder, walked away
with another award today and
the money that goes with it
The 24-year-old native of St.
Hyacinthe, Que., was a decisive
choice for the American Hockey
League's most valuable award.
He is only the second goalie in
the circuit's history to win the
honor.
Johnny Bower is the only other
goaltender to win the MVP
award. Bower took it three suc
cessive seasons, 1935-56, 1956-57,
and 1957-58.
DeJordy thus gained all of the
possible honors o r a player in
his position. The young Bison pre
viously had been chosen for the
all-star team as well as being
given the Harry IIap) Holmes
could Memorial Trophy for having the
best goaltending average for the
season.
For his achievement, DeJordy
will be presented with the Leslie
Cunningham plaque and a $300
cash bonus.
In the balloting, DeJordy was
given 31 out of a possible 4.
points.
Hunk Ciesla of the Cleveland
Barsons, who led the league in
goals scored, and teammate Fred
Glover followed in the balloting
with eight points each. Dave
Creighton of Baltimore was next
with seven, followed by Ed Chad-
wick of Hershev, Providence's
Fcrnie Flaman, John McKenzie
of Buffalo and Bill Sweeney of
Springfield with five points each.
DeJordy compiled a league-
leading 2 79 goaltending average
last season.
