This Is the lair where a huge

and Bill Northumberland
Gene Conley reached his
big-league peak with is vic
tories, Radatz remains the
shiniest star of the pitching
staff. One Of his admirers is
Ralph Houk, manager Of the
Yankees, who said, I'D rather
have q reliever like Radatz
than a 20-game winner"
For the record, Radatz was
p-6 with a 2.23 ERA, and had
l6 saves" Since relief pitch
ers are won't to argue that q
save represents q victory,
Radstz had quite a year.
Generally speaking, Man

isn't deep. Monbouquette,
Wilson and Conley are the
chief starting candidates.

100000. Fortunately, the ze-
phyrs have possibilities with
Walt Bellamy and Terry Dis
chinger, two of the leagues
brightest new stars, under lock
and key.
In Chicago's two years in
the MIA. it served as the fifth
team in the West. There may
have to be a realignment now
to put Baltimore in the East.
If this is done, the Zephyrs'
stock really improves. They'll
be in the same division with
the Knicks.
While It will take time for
the pros move to Baltimore to
be judged fully, the colleges al
ready have done q strange
thing. At a time when baseball
is trying to cut down its play
ing time, the colleges have de-
cided to lengthen their basket
ball games.
This is one move that brings
a definite hurrah here. The
colleges have decided to stop
the clock every time the whistle
blows, which means a change
primarily on walking violations
and balls going out of bounds.
Formerly, the clock kept run
ming.
1t always has seemed rather
absurd that an -of-bounds
situation stopped the clock in
other sports like football. but
not in basketball. Now every
body's in step. The new rule
may add about five minutes to
a game (not II to is as re-
ported, but that hardly mat
tiers. Most college basketball
games last only about an hour
and 40 minutes anyway.
What the extra time will do
is to produce some higher
scores and more 30-point scor-
ers. College fans always have
been intrigued by those things.
So apparently are the rule
makers. Someday they may
even see fit to adopt the three
point, long-shot play.

son; Bill Mcleod, 8-6; Dave

dering why the NCAA didn't
leave a few things as they were.
For two years the Eastern
Regionals drew sellout crowds
at Cole Field House. A year ago
the NCAA picked UP q sweet
$52,232 from its two-night
stand here. Maryland's Bill
Cobey says that figure will be
topped considerably this year
when the final report is in.
But the NCAA, which often
is distinguished for its fuzzy
thinking, has decided to shift
the Eastern regionals to Ra-
leigh next year, Just when we
all thought we had a going
thing here. OF course, there's
talk that Cole Field House will
still get something, the first
round triple-header. The feeling
here is that they can keep that
in Philadelphia, along with the
cracked Liberty Bell.
The best drawing card around
here in q post-season tourna-
ment is the Atlantic Coast
Conference champion, whic h
will draw a first-round bye
again next year. Duke made
sure of that when 1t thumped
Oregon State in the consola-
ton game at Louisville.
That means the triple
header, wherever it is held, will
include a couple of at-large
teams, plus assorted cham
pions, including the Ivy League
and Yankee Conference kings

hardly are powerful gate at
fractions here.
The grapevine has it that
Maryland may be rewarded for
the fine way it handled the
regionals in the past by getting
the National finals in the fu-
ture. Wen believe it when we
see it. Meanwhile, the are a
fans, who were beginning to
enjoy their taste Of tourney
basketball, always can settle
back with a good book and
wait.
The NCAA defends It's move
by saying it likes to switch its
tournaments around. Sure
that's why the National finals
have been booked in Louisville
and Kansa City for 10 of the
last IL years.

The pros, meanwhile, hope
they've solved q problem by
moving their Chicago franchise
to Baltimore. The sports should

Worthington broke in with

Reds decided to dip into the

gamble that so far has been
rewarding.
The defeat was the 18th In

the Giants, National League
