dleman. N. c., has won his
first victory of the new stock
car racing season by capturing
the Sunshine 200 at the Savan-

laps behind, in a 1868 Ford.
Petty kept the leader, Ned

moved ahead on the 9th lap
when the front-running Ford
blew its engine. He never was
headed after that.

South Hills High School OF
Pittsburgh has left town with
the championship trophy and
most of the silverware of the
third annual O'Connell Christ
mas basketball tournament, but
the Golden Knights have left
behind a zone press defense
which may be emulated by
many of the local teams.
South Hills used the press
for the third day in a row to
defeat previously unbeaten
Towson Md Catholic, $3.50,
in the finals yesterday.
st. Johns, champion the
first two years, romped over
host O'Connell, 74-53, for third

point halftime lead and lost,
66-61, to Notre Dame of Tren-
ton, N. j., in the battle for
fifth, and La Sale of Philadel-
phia took seventh by defeating
st. Stephens, 78-47.
The Knights zone press,
which has the three front men
constantly going for the ball,
was extremely effective. Yester-
day South Hills used it to
intercept four passes and turn
them into baskets in the last
80 seconds of the third quar-
ter, stretching a shaky 59-52
lead into a safe, 67-52 advan-

The South Hills press got
everyone into the spirit, and all
the teams except Landon made
use of the defense. Both st.
Johns and Towson tried to
press back against the Golden
knights, but could not do it
successfully.
Il think you're going to see a
lot more pressing in Washing
ton this year." the South Hills
coach, Jerry Conboy, said after
the game. "a couple Of the
area coaches were asking me
how I worked my defense"
The combination of the all
out-of-town final helped keep
the crowd down to 1,100, the
first time in three years the
1,400-Seat O'Connell gym has
not been packed for the finals.
However, tournament officials
still plan to have three or four
out-of-town teams next year.
Some hot shooting by Herb
South, who scored five straight
baskets for South Hills near
the end of the half, gave the
winners a 1875 halftime bulge.
The Owls tied the score at ST.
81 in the third period, only to
panic against the press.
Towson, which had won
seven straight, rallied twice in
the fourth quarter to cut the
deficit to 10 points, but good
foul shooting by Dave Welty
helped the Knights preserve
their eighth victory in nine
games.

Hold Your Hour and Have
Another, by Brendan Behan,
little, Brown $4.75): The read
ers of Dublin's Irish Press were
indeed fortunate between 1854
and 1856, because in addition to
good stout and a green land
scape they had the columns Of
Brendan Behan to read. This
was before the success of Be
hans books and plays, but the
talent for recording conversa-
ton and atmosphere and telling
tales - Irish, English, and ev-
en- East TuniSian - was there.
Behan takes his reader on a
tour Of the Dublin pubs, where
they meet characters like the
man with the bus timetable who
ducked under the table so his
wife could not see him drinking
as she rode by in her double
decker bus; the painter who
got in the way of Queen Eliza
beth at Buckingham Palace,
and the heroes of the Irish rev.
olution, still proud decades af-
ter to have fought and died for
their country"
All the pieces in this collection
are short, because of their
newspaper origin, and for the
same reason most end in a sort
of punch line. But they are in
no sense newspaper filler ma
terial. Behan's humor is too
great and his writing style too
original for that.

Well In Advance

1t is never too early to make
plans for your future retirement,
according to Jerome H. Drane,
social security district manager
in Gulfport, Miss. He said the
folks in the social security Of
flee will be glad to tell you
what papers you will need when
you file your claim for pay
mentS.
"You should make your claim
for social security retirement
payments two or three months
before you actually retire"
Drane said. BY doing this, you
will get your payment on time
when you retire.
Drane warned older workers
against waiting until after re-
tirement to make their first
visit to the social security Of
flee. Some often find that they
could have gotten benefit pay
ments even though still work
Ing. The best way to avoid this
kind of loss is to check into
social security before you re-
tire.
If you are near age 81 and
have never checked into your
social security, d o so today.
Even if you are not ready to
retire, you should check on your
social security when you reach

Gunfire echoing on the Medi-
terranean island of Cyprus is a
reminder Of an unhappy past
and an uncertain future.
For three years since Cyprus
achieved independence on Aug.
16, 1860, a restless peace has
prevailed under a constitution
which sought to protect in
equal portions the rights Of
400, 600 Greeks and the 100, DOC
Turks who form the islands
minority.
1t is an impossible constitu-
ton patched together to escape
an impossible situation marked
by years of bloody violence and
a near-break between Greece
and Turkey and an accompany
ing threat to NATO defenseS in
the eastern Mediterranean.
The violence began in 1852,
when a black-bearded, Ameri'
can educated Orthodox priest
became archbishop of Cyprus
under the title Makarios III
and used his office to press his
campaign for ''enoSiS" union
with Greece, and independence
from Britain.
1t reached its peak in 1856
and 1856 when Eoka, the Greek
terrorist organization turned
the main street of Nicosia, the
capital, into murder mile"
and nearly 1000 persons were
killed or wounded.
Agreement A Patchwork
The chronicle., 1963-12-27
Constitution OF Cypress
Said Mostly Patchwork

With Turkey demanding par
tition of the island and Greece
demanding its union n
neither they nor the Cypriots
able to agree on a solution, a
council of Zurich reached a
patchwork agreement t r
completed in London.
1t provided for a republic of
Cyprus to be headed by a
Greek president and a Turkish
vice president, each with a
right of veto.
The division Of authority eX-
tended even down to the COM
munity level, and affected all
phases of government, includ-
ing foreign affairs, tax laws
and the makeup of the army.
This is the issue which has
proved unavoidable. The divi-
sion between Greeks and Turks
has led to failure to collect
taxes and Turkish Vice Presi-
dent Fail Kutchuk to complain
that he is kept ignorant of af-
fairs which he has the right to
veto.
Makearios, who became the
country's first president and
still holds the post, on his side
has complained that separate
Greek and Turkish authority in
the communities is unavoidable,
and he blames the Turks for
making it so.
He has demanded conStitu-
tional changes which the Turks
say would infringe upon their
rights.
Cause Of Violence
These changes were the un-
DERIVING causes of the most re-
cent clashes in which both
Greeks and Turks died.
Underlying the violence also
was the Turkish belief that the
Greeks still have not given up
their desire for union with
Greece, although it specifically
is forbidden by the Zurich
agreement.
Feeding Turkish suspicious
was Makarios' own assertion
last March that the Eoka
struggle is not yet ended"
Makarios has said that Cyp-
rus is more inclined to the
West than the East" but he
has not hesitated to complete
many barter deals with Com
munist countries.
Meanwhile, the struggle in
Cyprus can only be of benefit
party, the best organized in the
country, powerful in municipal
governments and in labor.
So far, the Communists have
been willing to bide their time.
