rized they were shot by two men

They based their theory on the
number and position of the bull
let wounds and bullet holes in
the car.
However, there were no wit
nesSes and if there had been 9TH
ers in the automobile, there was
no evidence they had been in
jured in the crash, police said.

men were fired on from another
automobile.
The slain man was James
Pape, SO, identified as a post
Office employee, who was shot

sprawled on his left shoulder on
the sidewalk with his feet tan
gled in the pedals inside the
wrecked car. Anthony was
slumped in the seat next to him.
Chief of Detectives John T.
O'Malley said Anthony was part
and parcel of the dope ring" OPP
Grating in Chicago.
Warfare Suspected.
1--WE can't say this shooting
is the result of warfare between
factions" Mr.. O'Malley said,
''but you can draw your own
conclusions.
Police picked up several men
for questioning.
Police questioned Anthony
briefly at the hospital. but they
said he refused to say who might
have shot him and his brother.
Anthony and 10 other men
were seized by police and Federal
narcotics agents March II. Pape

Women's Teams WiNContinue
Warm Rivalry in Star Games

A small but impressive group
of women athletes will come to
Washington for The Star Games,
January %, to continue a warm
rivalry.
Keen competition has devel-
oped between the Catholic Youth
Organizations of Chicago and
New York. the German -Ameri-
can Athletic Club of Brooklyn
and Tennessee State A&I Col
lege.
In these four groups is con-
centrated much of the Nation S
women's track talent, which
played a major part in giving
the United States its margin of
victory over Russia for the un-
official team championship of
the 1852 Olympics.
The sweetness and light"
that prevailed among the girls
at Helsinki will be missing when
they face the starter at the
Armory January %.
Here's how their leading per-
formers will square off in the
three events listed for women:
70-yard hurdles-Nancy Phil

Miss Jones won the 100-meter

also shared the relay triumph.
Miss Jones and Mae Faggs of
Tennessee State were half of the
relay combination that won the

American U. Hoping
For First Break in
Form in Hoya Game

American University's basket
ball team reached the halfway
mark of its schedule with last
nights 54-42 victory over RAN
dolph Macon. and Coach Dutch
Schulze says that so far his club
has been following the form
sheet.
The Eagles. who have seven
victories against five defeats,
have won the games they ruled
as favorites. taken the close ones
that could have gone either way.
and lost to their stronger OPP
ponentS.
We've played a pretty good
schedule, tougher than George
Washington's for instance, and
I see that they're the seventh
ranked team in the country"
Schulze said. Eagle opponents
have included New York u,
Manhattan. Navy and Penn
State.
While Schulze Is not content
with his teams record, he would
be by the week end If AU could
take its next two. The Eagles
play Davis and Elkins here Fri
day night and face Georgetown
at McDonough Gym Saturday.
The Georgetown game is the
one Schulze wants. Of course.
He has secuted the Hoyas twice
and acknowledges that they have
a slight edge in height and DOS
sibly more savvy. But he thinks
AU can win at least one game
OF the home-and-home series.
American U. is the undisputed
leader of the MaSon-Dixon Con-
ference with four victories and
has turned back two of it's top
three challengers in Loyola and
Mount st. Mary's. But the
Eagles must play both of those
teams again away from home.
The victory over Randolph
Macon was not one of AUS i'm
pressive ones. but Schulze was
satisfied because the Yellow
Jackets for years have been a
jinx team to AU.
Bud Days five baskets in the
first half helped the Eagles to
1918 halftime lead. during which
the visitors showed preference
for passing around the AU zone
instead of trying to break
through it. John Tkach led the
scorers with IA points. Danny

ROCHESTER. N. Y. Jan. IL
The honors keep piling up fol
Ben Hogan for his unprecedented

ment in 1853.

This does not mean that the

group, although they could use
a couple nicely. Jones already
belongs to the Chicago Bears,
having been drafted last year,
and Caroline is only a sopho-
more.
Also, as the genial general
manager points out, the best
football players aren't always
the so-called All-Americans. Or,
to put it another way, college
stars don't always develop into
outstanding or even good pro
players.
Part of the fun of a draft
meeting. if it can be called fun,
is watching the coaches and
owners trying to outsmart each
other. They come prepared with
more notes and secret informa-
ton than a squad of Congress
sional investigators. apparently
thinking nobody knows what
they know. The surprised looks
when some supposedly "hidden"
player is taken just before a
certain coach planned to draft
him is priceless.
The wonder of it all, as we've
noted before. is how the pros
come up with so many stiffs
after carefully scouting and
double-checking the college ros-
terS?
If there are any doubters that
horse racing is the Nations big
geSt sport, not to say one of its
major businesses, the annual re-
view in yesterdays Morning Tel

a total of 30,099.566 fans paid

and wagered $2,104,250,707. 1t
was the first So billion year.
This does not, of course, take
into consideration the money
spent for food and drink at the
track, the little colored card with
all the winners. money spent on
transportation, track employees
salaries, veterinarians fees, oats
and hay.
Who makes the most money,

hard to say. The owners? Hard
