ability. Wills has scored most
of his 1872 points with a jump
shot. He also is a good man

Wills has been able to play

gate finished second and Gus,
third.
1t was the sixth victory in
the last seven starts and the
18th consecutive race in which
Glass House has finished in the

and finished second six times
and third four times.
Glass House received a per-
feet ride from Bob Ussery and

House were heads apart, with
Glass House moving up to chal-
lenge. Inside the eighth pole
Ussery moved Glass House be-
tween the two leaders and it
was all over. He was a head

FROM LSU TO ARMY
Speculation Grows
On Move by Dietze|

MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 2 (AP).-
While Coach Paul Dietzel pom
derS an offer to rescue Army
football, speculation grows to-
day he will leave his Louisiana
State powerhouse and answer
the call from West Point.
After LSU defeated Colorado,
25-7, in the Orange Bowl yes
terday, Dietzel retained his
poise and remained non-com-
initial in a shower of pressure
from all sides.
Concerning my move to
Army, put it out of my mind
until this game was over" the
37-year-old ex-Army assistant
said. Nov I'll give it my full
consideration. I have no fur
ther comment"
If Dietzel makes the move as
suspected, he is in no position
to be definite. First, Maj. Gen.
w. c. Westmoreland, West
Point superintendent, will an
nounce the successor to Dale
HaH-fired December (Which
he hopes to do this week.
Second, LSU officials say
Dietzel has not requested re-
lease from his contract which
still has four years to run.
Leaves Door Open
Some LSU sources are report
ed ready to go to court, if nee
essary, to force Dietzel to serve
out his $18,500-a-year commit
ment. A majority of the 14-man
LSU board of supervisors must
approve a request for the
coach to withdraw.
However, the former aide of
Earl (Red) Blaik left the door
wide open by saying:
IT coached at Army for two
years as an assistant and I
know what they have to offer.
It is a wonderful athletic setup
at West Point.
But I like LSU, too. Every
one at LSU has been wonder
full to me. I can't say what my
decision will be until I've had
several days to think about it.
IT feel like the man who
walked into the Post Office and
saw his picture. It's nice to be
wanted"
Dietzel persistently refused
to admit he had received a di-
rect offer from Army, but most
everyone else felt he had.
ShOwered With kilograms
Meanwhile, Louisianans show
cred Dietzel with kilograms, in
cluding some which read:
Don't be a fool, don't be-
come an Army mule"
II would rather be a Tiger,
tried and true, than an Army
brat, would you?"

Purchase Of 1888
Acres In Section Be

And BrOadkill Greek.

The U. S. Fish and Wildlife
Service is planning the purchase Of
1928 acres between Slaughter
Beach and Broadkill Creek as

None of the sprawling marsh
lands, which lie along the path of

birds, has been acquired yet, but
the new refuge is expected to rival
the Bombay Hook Wildlife Refuge
near Smyrna in size.
Bombay Hook now includes
about 14,300 acres, but the U. S.
Department of the Interior, Of
which the fish and wiIdlife serv-
ice is a part, is considering the
purchase of another 5000 acres.

Primehook Wildlife Area may
become a part of the new refuge,
extending from Slaughter Beach
to Broadkill Creek and inland as
far as NAPLES Pond.
Sussex County, largest of the
three Delaware counties in land
area, comprises 946 square miles.
The new refuge would cover about
17.5 square miles.
MarstOn said the refugees pur-
pose viii be to provide a habitat
for waterfowl.

part, the waterfowl population
keeps diminishing from year to

Wool Production Is
Up In Delaware

'Baa, Baa, Black Sheep, have
you any wool?"
While the Delaware State De-
velopment Department doesn't pro-
fess to know how much wool Della
wares black sheep might have, it
does claim that wool production is
up in The First State.
Although Delaware ranks near
the bottom among the nation s
sheep-raising states, it does, ac-
cording to the state information
agency, raise sufficient sheep
to produce a significant amount of
marketable wool.
In 1855, Delaware farms only
had about 1000 sheep and these,
in turn, produced but $4,000 lbs.
of wool. A year later, the states
wool production was 20,741 lbs.
and. by 1860, the average annual
yield had risen to $4,000 lbs.
This year, an estimated 1000
sheep were sheared for a $4,000
pound wool yield.
