Big Ten May Push Divorce In Bowl Talk EVANSTON, Ill. (AP) — Future Rose Bowl football participation may be decided by Big Ten faculty representatives and athletic directors at their spring meeting today. There is rising sentiment for abandoning the bowl contract with the Pacific Coast Conference after its expiration next New Year's day. The contract was originally adopted for five years. Minnesota is expected to suggest that the pact be scrapped, but Gopher leaders may be unable to muster enough votes to end the series. If the majority of big 10 schools wants a renewal, a committee will be named to confer with Pacific Coast Conference officials on revisions. The two groups probably will meet during the NCAA track championships at Minneapolis June 16-17. Assuming the contract is continued, some sort of compromise is expected to be reached with the Pacific Coast. The three-year clause, which prohibits a big 10 team from making the trip to Pasadena more than once in this period, probably will be reduced to one Pasadena appearance every two years. The Pacific Coast sends its champion annually. Another big 10 grievance is the distribution of bowl tickets. Big 10 Rose Bowl teams want at least 20,000 ducats, instead of the 10,- Campbell Nabs British Lead ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (F)—Big Bill Campbell of Huntington, W. Va., defeated champion Sam McCready of Ireland on the 19th hole today to lead a field of six Americans into the round of 16 in the British amateur golf championship. The long-driving legislator who yesterday eliminated former champion Willie Turnesa, sank a 12 foot putt for a birdie three on the first extra hole to subdue the laughing Irishman after a tense duel. Both men shot brilliant golf, McCready doing the regulation 18 in 72 strokes to the American's par 73. Frank Stranahan of Toledo, Dick Chapman of Pinehurst, N. C., Jim McHale of Philadelphia, Bill Goodloe of Valdosta, Ga., and Ed Gravely of Rocky Mount N. C., joined Campbell in the sixth round, which also was to be played today.

Mangrum Sues For $103,000 LOS ANGELES (AP)—A father and son knocked him over and beat him while he was down, Golfer Lloyd Mangrum charges in a $103,000 damage suit. The incident occurred after a minor traffic accident last November. His right shoulder was fractured, rendering him unable to earn a living at golf for months. Mangrun's complaint, filed yesterday, alleges. He named his neighbors, E. J. Turner, contractor, and his son, E. J. Turner, Jr., as his assailants. Railbirds are looking for the Colonist Clipper to eclipse the present AUHS broadjump standard of 22'5½" in this, his finale in blue and gold scanties. Weaver has given indication in several practice sessions that he can do it with a little brushing up. Brushing Up And brushing up is what he's been doing this past week under the guidance of mentor Sam Keith. "Weaver has had trouble keeping his feet up," Keith said today, "and we've been working on that steadily since the Long Beach meet. He should be hitting 23 feet." Weaver is one of 36 southland prepsters going to Sacramento tomorrow. Thirty-two of the boys are from Central Section schools which participated in last Saturday's activities at Long Beach. The other four are from the Southern Group which staged qualifying activities at Riverside on May 13. Along with Weaver in the broadjump are Glendale's Steve Turner who won the event last Saturday with a leap of 24'6½" and Crotts of Glendale Hoover who nabbed second place. Versatile Turner, whose middle name is versatile, broke the national record for the 180 yard low hurdles with an 18.9 effort and took second in the 120 highs in a 14.2 duel. He also ran on the relay squad. Experts tab Jefferson high of Los Angeles to pick up a majority of the medals at Sacramento. Eleven of the boys in green are on the roster, including sprinter Guy Blackburn a 9.6 100 and 21.6 220 man, Stan Lang, who's logged 1:54.6 in the 880 and Gary Green who has a 48.6 440 to his credit. Jefferson garnered 110 points in the City meet while their nearest competitor had to settle for 29. Also on the north-bound special is Long Beach Wilson's Dick Mc- as Sherman Miller, Napa, man, Herb Turner, Alameen furlonger, and Vern Winn San Jose, a 6'5¼" high Trial heats begin at 2 Saturday.

Lasswell Awes Horse Addicts By FRED HAYDEN NEW YORK (UP)—Glenn Lasswell, the 18-year-old riding sensation of the New York turf season, is stealing the headlines from the horses. The colorful kid out of San Wsidro, Calif., has a record of 37 winners in 26 days of New York competition, including four victories at Belmont Park Wednesday. The Metropolitan season is 16 days old, but Lasswell sat out a 20-day suspension for rough riding at Jamaica. The youngster, who stands exactly five feet in his socks, has reddish, curly hair and brown eyes. He has the assurance of a veteran. But he doesn't like the reports that have gone around that he's "cocky." "That just ain't true," says the lad. The California kid is far in front for the Belmont meeting with 30 winners. He's only three victories behind Eddie Arcaro for the New York Season. Only last Monday, Glenn lost the precious five-pound apprentice allowance, but he's showing no signs of fading because of it. As an apprentice, he had 257 winners, 201 seconds and 180 thirds in 1341 amounts. He rode his first winner at Tia Juana on May 22, 1949—and had three other triumphs that same afternoon.
