TAKES RAP AT coUSY
Wilt Cracks Door
For Return to NBA

PHILADELPHIA, Mar. 30
(AP)-Wilt Chamberlain has
reiterated he'll never again
play in the National Basket
ball Association, but this time
he tackled on a couple of addi-
tional statements, indicating a
possibility he may return.
Not if I can help it," he
said in an interview last night
prec ding the Philadelphia
Basketball Writers Club. 14th
awards banquet where he was
honored as the NBA's out
standing player and rookie.
The other statement he made
after reiterating he wouldn't
return to the NBA was: "But
the NBA might change"
He said by this he meant the
players and some of the fran
chises "and maybe some other
things" He did not elaborate.
The 7-foot-1 Negro star, who
announced last week he's quit
ting the Philadelphia Warriors
after a record-breaking season,
also charged back at Bob Cousy
of the Boston Celtics, who ac-
cused him of complaining about
being pushed around and of

base with his wife.
He will be fined" General
Manager Buzzie Bavasi said.
The amount will be deter
mined by his behavior the rest
of the spring.
Il am very unhappy about
this incident, particularly be-
cause it was q game to which
fans paid to see Howard and
other Dodgers.
II told him: We've got an in
vestment in you, not you in us.
I can't have one set of rules
for you and another for the
other players
Howard, it was learned, was
unhappy about being left on
the travelling squad Sunday.
II can't make the team stay
ing behind at Vero Beach," he
told Manager Walt Aston.
Then he got smart" Aston
said. He goes to the batting
cage and hits Is more than
anyone else. He played in eight
of our first IL games. Then he
says he's mistreated. I've spent
more time personally with How
ard than anyone on the roster. Z"

his decision to quit.
Cousy, who asked to be con-
sidered spokesman for other
players in the NBA, had said
Chamberlain gives the. racial
issue as one reason for quitting.
In my 10 years on the NBA, /
never saw any evidence of
racial prejudice"
Chamberlain said he wasn't
bothered by the remarks of
Cousy, who, he felt, didn't have
a right to talk as a spokesman
for every player in the league.
Cousy is the NBA's players
representative.
Wilt implied that Negroes
have encountered various prob
lens in the league but again he
did not elaborate.
Chamberlains said the racial
angle was misinterpreted after
the original report he was quit

BOSTON, Mar. 29 (AP) -
The Boston Celtics and St
Louis Hawks square off tonight
in the second game of the best
of-seven playoff series for the
National Basketball Association
title. Local oddsmakers have
defending champion Celtics II
points favoriteS to make it
two in a row. They ran up
a record-breaking 140-122 VIC
tory in the first playoff game.
After tonight. the series
switches to st. Louis for two
games Saturday and Sunday.
The Hawks, Western Division
winners. have one major prob
lem: Will Sub Center Larry
Foust be able to play?
I'm very worried about HIM, "
Ed Macauley. Hawks coach,
said. Il don't know If he can
play"
Foust suffered a bone bruise
on his heel in the first semifinal
playoff game with Minneapolis.
Since then he has played with
his heel shot full of novacaine.
1t is extremely painful, Mac
auley said, and Foust may not
be able to play.
With Foust out. the Hawks
would have only regular Clyde

Red Auerbach, Celtics coach,

Griffs Await Veeck Verdict
On 2 Players for Sievers
Griffith SEEKING
Bottey, Esposito
From White Sox
By BURTON HAWKINS
Star stan Writer

ORLANDO, Fla, Mar. 2s.-
The Senators momentarily are
awaiting word from Bill Week,
boss Of the White Sox, on a
trade which would send First
Baseman Roy sievers to Chi
cago for Catcher Earl Battey
and Shortstop Sam Esposito.
President Cal Griffith of the
Senators made the offer yester-
day and expects to learn from
Veeck today whether it will be
accepted.
Veeck, enroute to Chicago
from Sarasota yesterday, had
travel troubles, according to
Griffith. Weeks plane re-
portedly was unable to land at
Chicago and instead put down
in Milwaukee. Bill, slated to
speak today in Lincoln, Nebr.,
took a bus from Milwaukee to
Chicago, then entrained for
Lincoln.
Isn't Seeking CarreOn
Veeck informed Grifhth of
his travel difficulties in q tele-
gram last night after they had
chatted earlier in the day. Bin
said he would telephone Grit
fifth today and Cal feels Veeck
is interested in completing the
transaction.
There had been speculation
that the Senator's might be

Indianapolis last season, but
Grifith said, I'VE don't want
him. Carreon undoubtedly is q
fine prospect, but we need ex-
perience behind the plate"
The delay in officials Of the
clubs contracting each other
yesterday was occasioned by
Weeks dificulties and the fact
that Manager AL Lopez of the
White Sox was reported on a
fishing trip. There is the pos
sibility that the White Sox
brass will counter with another
offer.
Not Noted as Hitter
Battey. rs. is a righthanded

Route and Win
By the Associated Press

Righthander Ron Kline,
traded to st. Louis when he
came down with a case of foot
in-the-mouth disease at Pitts
burgh. is another of the Card
inals' pitching ragamufflns de-
veloping winning ways under
the tutelage Of Coach Howie
Pollet.
Kline became the third con-
secutive member of the Cards
staff-worst in the National
League last season with a 4.34
earned run average-to go the
full nine innings and win when
he limited the Chicago White
Sox to six hits yesterday in a
81 victory.
1t was the fifth straight ex-
hibition victory and the ninth
in the last 10 games for st.
Louis, which previously received
route-going performances from
Larry jackson and Vinegar
Bend Mitzell.
No Earned Runs
Kline, who says he became
trade bait at Pittsburgh after
some caustic comments about
the way he was being handled,
has not allowed an earned run
in 19 innings Of work during
spring training.
How did the 28-year-old
hurler, who slipped to an 11-l3
record during the 1859 cam
paign. get his foot stuck at
Pittsburgh?
II was interviewed on a radio
show in st. Louis" Kline said.
II told the announcer that If
they (the Pirates) didn't want
to start or relieve with me I
wished they would trade me.
I just wanted to pitch more.
Nothing was said about it"
Kline explained, but I knew
everybody heard it back home
in Pittsburgh"
Manager Solly Hemus Of the
Cardinals also heard about it,
pried Kline loose, diagnosed
part Of his trouble as inability
to keep the ball low and told
Pitching Coach Pollet to keep
after Kline. It's worked.

Herbert stretched his scoreless
string to 18 innings yesterday

ALFALFA WINTER KILL

Concern has been expressed over
the increasing amount of alfalfa
winter kill in the Lower Yellow
stone Valley. This results from the
fact that many of the newer stands
have been affected more than in
previous years, as well as the high
percentage of loss in many fields.
In making a survey of this
alfalfa winter kill problem, we
have found that the greatest losses
have occurred in the Valley area
north Of Sidney. Fields most af-
fected are those with heavy soil
texture and are flat and subject to
flooding. Also we have noted that
more kill has taken place where
the third cutting was cut Late Last
fall.
Plant pathologistS at Montana
State College who have examined
some of the affected plants inform
us that the loss is due to a type of
crown rot resulting from adverse
fall and winter weather conditions.
They tell us that this is a fungus
disease and must be dealt with
through management practices.
AS a result Of the stand losses,
many farmers north of Sidney are
working up portions of alfalfa
fields and seeding them to small
grains. Some are also seeding
Piper Sudan grass for hay produc-
ton.
Plant pathologiStS at Montana
State College have informed us
that they plan to make a through
study of the situation. We fee
that they will come up with some

DEMONSTRATION TRIALS
Corn Silage trials are being
established at two locations in the
county through the cooperation of
local farmers, seed dealers, and the
Extension Service. The purpose of
these trials is to show the adopt
ability of corn selections for silage
purposes with respect to maturity
range. Improved hybrids adapted
to specific areas will produce more
total dry matter per acre than
other recommended forage crops.
The irrigated demonstration plot
will be at the Herman Propp farm
north of Silney, and will include
corn in 80, 110, 130-140 day matur-
ity range furnished by the Funk S
Seed Company.
The dryland demonstration will
be at the Joe Gartner farm north
west of Sidney, and will include
corn in 1880, go, 105-11O maturity
range furnished by the Dwight
Howard Seed Farm.
If interested, we encourage you
to visit these demonstrations later
in the summer to view the results
of these trials.
Several farmers in the country
will have test plots using carbyne,
the new chemical for wild oat
control. Preliminary testing in past
years has shown very good results
for control of wild oats in wheat
barley, and sugar beets. The
chemical has been released and
approved by the USDA for expert
mental use only and is not avail
able to the public. We will later
publish the names of farmers
using carbyne for wild oat con-
trol, and, if interested, we encour-
age you to visit some of the
trials and witness the results
During the season and at harvest
a close record will be kept on bott

best evaluation possible.

2,4-D FOR WEEDY LAWNS
Lawns infested with weeds are
always a problem, and particularly
in the newly established graS:
seeding. If the grass is wei
established, 2,4-D when applied &C.
cording to directions will kill mos
of the broadleaved weeds. Good
Ihealthy, well-cared for grass will
usually overcome most of the
grassy weeds.
If you are seeding a new laW1
this spring, don't use 2,4-D while
the grass is young. Wait until /
has reached a height of at leaS
two and one half inches or more
and the lawn has been moved a
least once. Building up your olC
lawn with plenty of water anc
FERTILIZER, and reseeding bare pat
ches, is a good bet for weed con-
troll, with an assist from 2,4-D.
1t is well to remember tha
choice garden plants and shrub!
are also susceptible to 2,4-D. Whe1
spraying, use the anime form o.
2,4-D, spray when there is nt

morning or in the evening, taking
great care not to allow any chemi'
cal to get on desirable plants

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
RAT MAsTERSoN
BUCK ROGERS
MUTT AND JEFF
ON STAGE
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: Some time ago
you quoted: Il call a fig a fig
and a spade a spade" - and
that's as far as I can recall.
Can you tell me the whole quo
tation and its author? C. M
Dunn, Washington.
Answer: The reason you
can't recall the rest of the quo
tation is that it is lost to his
tory. According to Bartlett
this is an unidentified minor
fragment" from the writings OF
the Greek dramatist Menander
However, other versions occur
in the writings of Aristophanes
and Plutarch. The latter wrote
Those Macedonians are a rude
and cloWnish people that call a
spade a spade"
Question: In a recent issue
you stated that the word mi
gralne" is pronounced MY
Crane. My dictionary gives ii
as mih-GRANE. What do you
say to that?-F. R. c., Pitts
burgh.
Answer: I'd say you had bet
ter buy an up-to-date diction-
ary. A half-century ago, when
Evening star., 1960-02-08

"migraine" was a word un-
known outside the medical pro-
fession, the preferred pronun-
citation was mih-GRANE. How
ever. perhaps as a result of the
tensions created by two world
wars and a depression, mi
graine" became commonplace
with doctor and patient alike.
BY now. the pronunciation MY
Crane is far more commonly
heard and is given as the pre-
ferred pronunciation in all up
to-date word books.
Question: Here's an item
from a local paper-not the one
that carries your column. 1t
appeared on the sports page
Schneider, who colleged at
Bowling Green, was picked up
by the Eagles, later went to the
Giants. who didn't think too
much of him but we're badly in
need of another end" How
do you like this little gem?
Answer: To borrow a phrase
from the teen-agers, I'm all
shook up. That sportswriter is
obviously wasting his time in
newspaper work. Anyone who
can create such an appalling
barbarism as "colleged" belongs
on Madison Avenue. The wiz
ards who travel and gentle
the smoke" could use a talent
like his.
