Cincinnati faces the latest
key assignment in its long
string of basketball successes
tonight a victory over
Wichita.
The Bearcats. cunning for
their fifth straight Missouri
Valley Conference title and Sec
ond National championship in
a row, could very well blow if
they don't handle the Wheat
shockers.
Cincinnati and Bradley are
tied for the league lead at 90,
with the Bearcats closing out
their league schedule in the
home game tonight and the
Braves finishing up at St. Louis
next Saturday. If Cincinnati
wins and st. Louis upends
Bradley, the Bearcats are in.
If both front-runnerS win,
they'll settle matters on a neu-
trail court later. with the sur
vivor carrying the Missouri
Valley banner into the NCAA
title tournament.
But if the Bearcats don't
come through tonight and
they were edged at Wichita,
52-51, two months ago it
could mean the end of a reign.

Rodgers 2 Strokes Up
In New Orleans Open

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. "a
(AP) If the recipe for win
ming on professional COLTS tour
calls for self-confidence as an
ingredient, then pudgy Phil
Rodgers can't miss. To bear
witness to this proposal, he
took a tWo-stroke lead into to-
days third round of the $4,000
Greater New Orleans Open.
The blond, freckled-faced son
of a San Diego car salesman
came through with his second
successive SO yesterday for a
36-hole total of 1873. He had
a two-stroke margin over such
veterans as Bo Wininger of
Odessa, Tex, and Yves Ellis of
West Caldwell, N. J.
The 23-year-old Rodgers,
who plays out of La Jolla,
Calf, described his second
round without a trace of
modesty.
Except for a couple of bad
spots," he said, Il played a
perfect round of golf"

Rodgers dunked birdie puts
of three, eight, Is and 10 feet
and had only one bad spot
that on the par 3,222-yard 18th
where he three-putted from the
edge.
The 32-mile-an-hour winds
that buffeted the 6,700-yard

certainly played havoc with
other top contenders.

BLACKSBURG, Va, Feb. "a
Especially George Washington
ended its road campaign with a
clean slate - no victories -
against Virginia Tech last
night, bowling OTIS.
The immediate result was
that the Colonials, with their
8-14 season record, drew
Davidson, $50, for a first
round opponent in the opening
game of the Southern Con-
ference tournament next
Thursday at Richmond. The
two are in the upper bracket.
One other tournament pair
ing became certain last night
third-seeded Furman (8-4)
against sixth-seeded Virginia
Military Institute (6-8) in the
last game of the lower bracket.
Virginia Techs victory last
night extended the Coolers
winning streak to eight and
made them look more and more
like favored West Virginia s
leading challenger for the con-
ference crown. It was Techs
seth consecutive victory at

However, Coach Bill Rein

Baseball's list of unsatiSfied
players was cut to A yesterday
as six came to terms.
The Yankees signed Second
Baseman Bobby Richardson for
a reported $4,000, up $4,000
from last year, which leaves
only Roger Maris, the leagues
most valuable player and home
run king. outside the fold.
The Dodgers also reduced
their unsigned list to one
Catcher Doug Camilli-as Out
fielder Wally Moon signed for
a reported $4,000. That would
make Moon the highest paid
Dodger, which might be ap-
propriate since he. was the
clubs leading hitter in 1861
with a 1923 average. He also
was tops in RIB with 88 and
second in home runs with IT.
Three Red Sox pitchers came
to terms - Ike O'clock, Tom
Borlund and Earl Wilson
leaving Outfileder Pete Jerni-
gan and Infielder Pumpsie
Green to satisfy.
And Pitcher Curt Simmons
accepted a slight pay cut from
the Cardinals, who have yet to
sign Pitcher Ray Sadecki,
Catcher Robert Herrera and
Second Baseman Julian Javier.
Meanwhile, the Nets returned
two pitchers obtained in the
player draft who announced
their retirement. Johnny An
tonelli was returned to the
Braves and Billy Loes to the

Duquesne Wednesday, their
fourth loss in the last five
games, while Maryland's. 71-68
drubbing by Virginia, was its
sixth straight loss.
Georgetown now owns a 1913
record while Maryland is 1873.
The performance of Bob
Sharpenter has been George
towns most appealing attrac-
ton recently. In the Hoyas
last five games the 6-foot-7
senior has averaged 24.4 points
despite being held to nine by
Duquesne.
He holds the key to the
Georgetown offense with sup
port from Jim Carrino, Paul
Tagliabue and Jim Christy.
Vince Wellington has started
Georgetown's last two games
and probably will be in the
opening lineup again tonight.
Unless the Terps provide a
real sumner in the upcoming
ACC championships and make
it back for the NCAA's Eastern
Regionals, this will be the fl
nal home game for their high
scorer, Bruce Kelleher, plus
Paul Jellus, Mike Nofsinger and

Clemson, locked in a battle
with Maryland for sixth place
in the ACC, comes here with
a team of the future. Coach

Beatty has an indoor

His top rivals. none of whom

of the flu and dropped out.
Parry O'Brien, who has won

favorite will be Dexter Elkins

Oval OtdAA "IAGCI
POMPANO BEACH, Fla,
Feb. 24.-According to the work
sheet, all pitchers are supposed
to get the same treatment in
spring training running, cal
isthentics, 10 minutes of
warmup, about the same time
in batting practice, hitting a
few, short rest and then
the same cycle.
But Manager Mickey Vernon
and his coaches are human,
and after only two days of
practice it's obvious that Jim
Hannah, the first-year draft
pick of last December, and Roy
Heiser, signed last summer off
the University of Maryland
campus, are going to get the
extra special treatment.
General Manager Ed Doherty
lost a couple of nights sleep
over Hannah before he landed
him. The 22-year old fast-ball
pitcher had a TIT record with
Olean, N. Y. last year.
The Red Sox didn't want to
make Hannah available for the
draft, but they had too much
money tied up in some other
youngsters, and regretfully
placed Jim on the market.
Heiser Well Watched
HeiSer, 6-foot-4, curly-haired
blond from Gainesville, Md,
pitched for Middlesboro, KY,
in the Rookie League last year
before the Senators brought
him up for a cup of coffee in
September.
Heiser, only 10, is green and
raw and probably will spend
another year or two in the
minors. But on a staff where
at least five positions are open,
you can't tell.
George Susce, the Would-be
tough guy coach of the Sena-
tors, was handling the pitchers
in methodical fashion yester-
day until Heiser took his second
turn at warming up for batting
practice.
