MOSCOW lR-Premier Khrush- cheV, commenting on the U. $. arms blockade said today the So- viets will not make any decisions which would be reckless nor "be provoked by unWarranted actions of the United States"

 Qn the absence of clear indiea- tion of what kind of actions Khrushchev would undertake to follow through on his words, the possibility remained the statement from Moscow was Red propaganda designed to enlist support for whatever course Khrushchev might pursue.
 (One source cautioned against any hasty conclusions based on the lack of an encounter between US. Navy blockaders and Soviet ships headed toward Cuba.

Lukers, Mats
Set to Clash
In Baltimore

Pro basketball makes its Sec
ond visit to Baltimore's new
Civic Center tomorrow night at
$3.50 when the Los Angeles
Lakers meet the Syracuse Mats
in a National Basketball AS
ISOLATION game.
The Lakers finished a sur
prising first in the Western
Division last year, but it's the
Mats who are raising the eye
brows SO far this season. They
lead the Eastern Division with
a 6-1 record to the Boston Gel
tics 1912, which is the sort of
thing that almost requires a
double-take. Actually, the Mats
are 11a games behind the Gel
tics but lead on percentage.
The Mats are getting the job
done with balance. They
haven't a scorer among the
leagues top 20, but they have
six players in double figures.
Top gun is Hal Greer with a
IT. per game mark.
The Lakers are off to a $3.50
start with an 8-6 record, but
that's hardly the fault of their
two big aces, Elgin Baylor and
Jerry West. Baylor, the former
Spingarn star, has a .32.1 aver
age, the second best in the
league. West is averaging 28.7.

Both the NCAA and AAU
must vote on the agreement.
Things had gotten to such a
serious point that the NCAA
was threatening to forbid COL
lege athletes to compete in
AAU meets. The AAU, for its
part, had warned that collegians
who participated in non-Sanc-
toned meets could be barred
from the Olympics.
For our part" said Wilson,
who called the meeting in a
last = ditch attempt to avert
complete chaos, I'VE are greatly
relieved. Now we can go full
speed ahead on our plans for
the Pan American Games and
the Olympics.
I'VE are deeply indebted to
the contribution the Attorney
General (who spent 31a hours
Monday night urging the COM
batantS to come to termS) made
at the meeting. The fact that
he left Washington at a critical
time and spent several hours
with us making helpful sugges-
tons brought home the fact of
how interested the entire coun-
try is in the problem.
II can tell you that the en-
tire Olympic Committee sighed
with relief when it was all
over"

LOS ANGELES, Nov. IA
(AP).-There are IS pitchers,
3 catchers, Is infielders and 7
outfielders on the Dodgers
1868 roster, which was released
last night.
Best bets to land jobs next
season among the rockies are
Second BaSeman Pee Wee
Oliver Of Spokane, Third Base
man Ken McMullen of Omaha
and Catcher Mike Brumley of
Omaha, who made the Amer
lean Association All-Star team.
Oliver batted BIT, McMullen
.282. with 81 home runs, and
Brumley .283.
Another rookie on whom the
Dodgers are very high is Bill
Haas, a first baseman with
Reno last year. He made 204
hits, drove in 144 runs and
hit 1868, leading the California
League in all three depart
ments. Haas may be two years
away from major league ball,
but the Dodger brass thinks he
eventually is going to be the
Los Angeles first baseman.

NEW YORK, Nov, IA (AP).-
TITS good to get back" Tom

Stith, former All-America

In his 10 minutes, Tom took

in the country passes close to
camp grounds in one ormore of
the l54 National Forests and Is
National Gas Stands. The camp
grounds offer a variety In size
and setting, and may be located
high on a mountain pass, beside
a lake, or In the heart of a
