Maryland's basketball team
entertains North Carolina to-
night at Cole Fieldhouse and
the Terps seem eager to find
some sort of new consistency
after taking five straight losses
from the Tar Heels.
In place of that old style con-
sistency in reverse, Coach Bud
Millikan wants steadiness on
the court-sure-handed passes,
accurate shooting and some
back to-back victories.
The Terps, taking the turn
down the homestretch in the
Atlantic Coast Conference race,
haven't won two straight since
mid-December. What's more,
they've been strictly in-and-
cutters recently with a victory,
then a loss in an alternating

Terps, three consecutive fin
ishes atop the ACES regular
season standings and a 1874
record last year. North Carolina
also has a new coach. Dean
Smith. who has replaced Frank
Mcclure, now with the pro
Philadelphia Warriors.
The Tar Heels are still some
thing of a question mark even
at this late date. chiefly be-
cause they've had a strange
stop and go schedule. They
opened with three games in 10
days, then sat idle for Is days.
After playing five more games
in II days, they took a 17-day
holiday. They returned to &C
ton Saturday and took a lacing
from Duke.

plaguing him during the 1860
season. He won the Cy Young
Award in 1858 when he was 21-7
and won two games in the
World Series, including the
clincher, as the Yankees beat
the Milwaukee Braves.
He was 17-14 over the follow
ing two seasons before becom-
ing particularly ineffective for
the Yankees last season, APP
pearing in only Is games (72
innirgs) for a 3-5 record and a

However, the Yankees aren't
counting on Turley. AS General
Manager Roy Hamey puts it,
IF he comes back, it's a bonus
for U.S."
Hamey, besides watching his
charges work out, was busy with
his front-office duties, receiv-

HAMILTON, N. Y, Feb. 6
(AP).-Alva Kelley, who last
year led Colgate University to
its first winning season in foot
ball in five years, resigned to-
day after three years in the job.
Kelley, 43, gave up the head
coach position to take a job
as an industrial engineer with
a Buffalo firm, Colgate Presi-
dent Everett Case said.
The retirement is effective
when a successor is appointed.
Kelley compiled a record of
8 victories and 18 losses. Last
season, the Red Raiders record
was 5-4, including a loss to
Syracuse in the last meeting of
the traditional upstate rivals.
Kelley, an honor graduate
of Cornell University's school of
engineering, was an end on
Carl Snavely's unbeaten 1889
Cornell football team.
He came to Colgate in 1859
after nine years as head coach
at Brown. At the Ivy League
school, Kelley compiled 81 VIC
J tories, 80 defeats and two ties.

house detective decided to get in on the
gravy train and one of his first calls was
to Marshall.
"Mr. Marshall" he began, I'm making
book and would appreciate any business
you can throw my way"
Marshall decided to help an old
friend and told him to put $40 on a horse
far down on the morning line for the first
race. 1t won and paid $24 Trying to lose
the money back, George parlayed his win
ningS on three more longshotS, and all
three won. Toward the end OF the day he
received another telephone call from the
house dick.
MIR. Marshall" he said bit sadly, at
just want you to know I'm no longer
making book"
THEY AREN'T THINKING of horses in
Cleveland, but probably of rumor that
Arthur Model, chief stakeholder Of the
Browns, won't permit Paul Brown to send
in plays from the bench next season. The
report is that coach will be hired to make
sure Brown doesn't call the signals.
1t got big laugh from General Man
ager Harold Sauerbrei
I'VE may have too many coaches al
ready" he said. We've got seven with the
return of Blanton Collier. I am quite sure
Mr.. Model is believer in Paurs system
and any report of his taking over the
coaching is incorrect"
Modell who has no background in
football, made quite a production of the
signing of Ernie Davis of Syracuse, and got
quite bit of space lamenting the loss of
Quarterback Sandy Stephens of Mime
sofa to Canada. These episodes were in
terpreted by some football men as the
initial move by Model to take charge with
both hands.
However, Sauerbrei pointed out that
Browns contract gives him complete au-
thority over the football squad, while Mo-
dell is in charge of the business end,
handling such matters as television, radio
and promotion.
Mr.. Brown either hasn't heard the
runlor or isn't worried. He's mentioning in
Florida and next week will head for Mexico
and two more weeks of jumping around"
It's kind of hard to think Of Paul taking a
vacation. During the football season you
get the impression that he spends "a hours
a day, 365 days year scheming ways to
beat the drafted opposition.

Irrepressible Ohio State, the
Nations top-ranked team, con-
ceivably could take its place
among collegiate basketball's
all-time elite.
The current band of all-con-
quering Buckeyes is streaking
along in devastating fashion
with II straight victories. No.
II came last night at home
an impressive 1858 lacing of
Iowa in a Big Ten Conference
game that gave Ohio State I'M
disputed possession of first
place in the league.
OF course, just a year ago,
Jerry Lucas & Co. were doing
the same thing = winning at
will. They had put together a
tidy string of 80 triumphs in a
row. Five of the conquests had
been accomplished at the end
of the 1860 campaign en- route
to the national championship
The Buckeyes captured 27
straight last season and needed
only a victory over Cincinnati
in the NCAA final for a $50
undefeated slate and a 33-game
Skein. But the Bearcats had
different ideas and upended
Ohio State, 70-65, in overtime.
Seven Games to Go
Undaunted, Coach Fred Tay-
lor's charges are back in bust
ness again, and the way they're
going they're going to be
mighty hard to stop. The Buck
eyes have a TO Big Ten record
and have seven more games to
play-all league games.
Ohio States last regular
season loss was February 20,
1860, at Indiana, 1888. The
Buckeyes have been invincible
on their home floor, having run
up a 31-game string of VIC
tories. Ohio State also has won
% straight league games over
three seasons-one short of the

Cage Top Ten
BY the Associated Press

Ohio States unbeaten bas-
ketball team has done it again.
Once more the weekly Associ-
ated Press poll of a committee
of sports writers and sport
casters has cast a unanimous
ballot for the Buckeyes.
Coach Fred Taylor, used all
of his IA men Saturday as
Ohio State ran it's winning
streak to 16 by humping
Northwestern, 97-61. The poll
covered games through Satur-
day, February 8.
The only change among the
top ten teams in the new poll
found Oregon State Q6-D
moving into the select circle
and Southern California Q2-4
dropping out after it's defeat
by UCLA.
Next in line after Ohio State
came the Kentucky Wildcats
(16-D who added to their rec
ord last week by knocking off
Georgia Tech, Georgia and
Florida. Kentucky hasn't lost
since 1t bowed to Southern
Cal. December 4 in its second
game.
Cincinnati held tight to third
place, right on Kentucky's
heels, by boosting its season
record to 17-2 with victories
over Drake, Houston and North
Texas State.
Kansas State also remained
in step, clinging to fourth place
on a victory over Nebraska that
sent its record to 1872.
After the first four, the Or
der shifted a bit. Southern Cal,
which has been fifth a week
ago, fell out of the top ten and
Duke, winner over South Caro-
lima and North Carolina, moved
up a peg to fifth.
Duquesne (16-2) moved up
one place to sixth on victories
over Villanova and st. Francis
IN. "; Bradley (14-3) hoped
two places to seventh with tri-
umphS over Tulsa and st.
Louis; Bowling Green Q5-D,
winner over Miami (Ohio), re-
manned in eighth position; Mis-
sissippi State (16-D advanced
one position to ninth by beating
Delta State and LSU, and Ore
gon State, winner of Is straight
after losing to Montana De-
cember 2 in their second game,
moved into the 10th spot.

Buckeyes Now11GomesAwoy
From A||-Winning Season

Big Ten record set by Wiscon-
sin in 1918.
If the Buckeyes sweep their
seven remaining games and the
four games in the NCAA cham
pionships, they'll wind up with
a $50 mark. Only three other
major teams ever have finished
the season unbeaten.
Kentucky was $50 in regu-
lar season play in 1854 but the
Wildcats chose not to compete
in the post-season NCAA cham
pionships after qualifying auto
matically as SEC titlists. In
1856, San Francisco won the
NCAA title and had a perfect
800 record. North Carolina
was the NCAA winner in 1857
and possessor of an imposing
800 mark.

San Francisco also holds the
record for the longest winning
streak-60 games. The Dons &C
complished the feat from De-

The Buckeyes built a ALL
