Colonists Face Alu 'Loaded' Graduates to Take Floor After 7 p.m. County Preliminary The Anaheim Colonists, who have been accused by some of being far too charitable in Sunset league play, step out for charity again tonight—but this time for a much more worthy cause. The event, as everyone probably knows by now, is the March of Dimes benefit contest between the Colonists and a star-studded alumni quintet. Admission, which will all be turned over to the Dimes fund, will be a minimum of 10 cents. No maximum contribution limit has been placed. Three Additions With tipoff time set for 8 a.m. three additions—one each by the Colonists, the alumni, and the management—were announced at the last minute yesterday. The Colonists were first with theirs, starting through the medium of Coach Sam Keith that Ed Ramirez, ineligible forward who will make his league debut Friday night against Huntington Beach, will be in the Anaheim lineup tonight against the alumni. Not only that, but Keith said that he would probably be in one of the starting spots, although he declined to say just which one of the regular Nettles First Half Scoring Champion Armand Nettles of Newport emerged as the Sunset League's top scorer today—at least for the first half of the season. The Sailor forward plopped through 76 points in his first five games to take a six-point edge over Rex Babcock of Santa Ana. Nettles' teammate, center Glenn Griffith, remained in third place with 62 points. Three Colonists were among this week's leaders. Guard Sheldon Welch was in fourth place with 58 points and Ira Webber and Ron Faulkner were sixth and seventh, respectively, with 49 and 46.

Not only that, but Keith said that he would probably be in one of the starting spots, although he declined to say just which one of the regular starters would sit this one out. A roster addition was the contribution of the alumni, who announced that Ed Stringer, guard on the defending city league championship Ritz cleaner squad, would be on their bench for tonight's game. Prelim Game Along this same Ritz line, the management announced that team would play a preliminary game, making tonight's tussle a bargain with a doubleheader. The Cleaners will play Garden Grove in a regular Orange county league game starting at 7 o'clock. Under the present arrangement, the floor must be cleared for the nightcap by 8. The task of the Colonists may be stated simply: stop Faulkner and Schmitz. But the fulfillment of that task may not be so easy. Tough Job Certainly, "little" Ron Faulkner has never faced a challenge as tough this year as that handed him tonight of stopping brother Hugh. Hugh comes in tonight's game at 6 ft. 8 in. and 220 pounds, and thus will tower four inches over the tallest of the Colonists. He certainly cannot be expected to suffer from unfamiliar surroundings, for it was in this same gym that he earned the title "CIF Player of the Year" in 1947. He was captain of that year's team, its most valuable player, and also set a CIF record that still stands—49 points in a single game. Local Talent Unlike his two teammates who will accompany him from Peperdine—Bon Liebhart and Jerry Schmitz—Faulkner went to Santa Ana JO when he was graduated from Anaheim, playing there for a year before transferring to the Waves. Liebhart (1945) and Schmitz (1948) both played at Fullerton before moving to Peperdine.

Ingram. Rupp Says: Slow The Game, Slow The Fans NEW ORLEANS (UP)—The survest way to kill basketball as America's number one spectator sport is to slow the game down to a waltz, Kentucky Coach Adolph Rupp said today. The coach of the nation's No. 1 ranking basketball team believes his players should run with the speed of a bluegrass thoroughbred. His team walloped Tulane 104-68 here last night to give his argument a convincing ring. Rupp declared in his twangy rural accent: "Basketball is a game of action. When you take the action away, the customer will stay away, too." A bitter opponent of slow-style deliberate basketball, Rupp picked up a newspaper to make a point. "Look here," he said as he pointed to a story of the Oklahoma A and M-DePaul game last Saturday in Chicago. "Only 7000 people turned out to see the Aggies play DePaul in Chicago.

All of the other talent has remained local, but it is expected to be no soft touch since most of the men on the Anaheim roster have remained in condition through the medium of the Recreation department's city league. Backing up these players are Jim Schmitz, Don Hall, Minard, Duncan, Lloyd Trapp, Henry Sieklin, Gil Henning, and Don Calaway. If the secret lies in the reserves, the edge is probably with the alumni. While the Colonist reserves are certainly more plentiful, the alumni subs appear to be much classier. A bitter opponent of slow-style deliberate basketball, Rupp picked up a newspaper to make a point. "Look here," he said as he pointed to a story of the Oklahoma A. and M.-DePaul game last Saturday in Chicago. "Only 7000 people turned out to see the Aggies play DePaul in Chicago.

"Why when we played DePaul at Lexington, a tank town in comparison to Chicago, we had 'em standing in the aisles. Sold all 13,500 seats and standing room too." Rupp, who watches the turnstiles almost as closely as the scoreboard, has enjoyed tremendous success with his race-horse game, winning 423 and losing 78 in 20 years at Kentucky. SPEEDY by K.F.

The next one will be held at the Lakewood country club in Long Beach on Feb. 8, he said. It will be the first field day for the Anaheimers since they last gathered at Willowick on Oct. 11. Once again the golfers will be vying for the Troutman-Scholz perpetual trophy, symbol of the day's lowest net score. The trophy was captured by J. W. Anderson last time with a score of 61. Reserve Tee Gay said that the tee at Lakewood had been especially reserved for members of the AGA from noon until 1:30 p.m. At October's field day, approximately 80 golfers participated in the quest for the trophy.

(Gazette photo by Kreidt) Kentucky, Aggies Move Out To Lead in AP Cage Voting NEW YORK—(AP)—With another full month before the first of the basketball tournaments begins, the Kentucky Wildcats and Oklahoma A & M appear due for a battle right down to the wire for the No. 1 collegiate ranking. For the second week in a row, Kentucky topped the weekly AP poll today, but the margin was by a slim 19 votes over the Aggies of Oklahoma. Of course, something could pop up to blow down the rankings of one or the other—or both—before the end of the poll. For instance, take the case of Long Island university, the No. 2 team last week; but dropped this week to No. 4 because of its loss to California Saturday, 69-67. Arizona bumped LIC last night at Tucson, 62-61, but this was after the votes were counted for this week's rating. The results all were in last night, however, before Kentucky took the court to thump Tulane, 104-68, at New Orleans. It was a new Southeastern conference scoring record, and possibly Kentucky felt it needed some positive proof it should show who is boss in the court business. From here on, the schedule favors Kentucky to add to its 15-1 mark. The Wildcats have nine games left in regular season play, most with impotent Southeastern conference clubs. On the other hand, Oklahoma A & M has a tougher row to hoe, especially with some Big Seven and Missouri Valley foes waiting to ambush Coach Hank Iba's lads. With 138 sportswriters and broadcasters voting in this week's poll, Kentucky received 42 first place votes and Oklahoma A & M 31. The Aggies, with an 18-1 record, were more interested in the result than she is in putting form. (Gazette photo by Kreidt) Faurot Probably, But He Might Not COLUMBIA, Mo., (AP) — Coach Don Faurot's status at the University of Missouri today was obscure. Even Faurot was in a dilemma. Missouri wants Faurot to stay on as football coach and athletic director. But so far he and the athletic committee have been unable to reach an agreement on a new contract. The Missouri coach is also under consideration for football coaching jobs at the University of Southern California and Ohio State. Yesterday Faurot said proposals made to him by the Missouri athletic committee were not acceptable. He added, however, that Gay said that the tee at Lakewood had been especially reserved for members of the AGA from noon until 1:30 p.m. At October's field day, approximately 80 golfers participated in the quest for the trophy. Besides the large trophy for low net score, Gay said that there would probably be a number of other awards handed out following the day's play. As is the custom following all of the field days, a dinner will be held in the Lakewood clubhouse at 6:30 p.m. Gay said that a good turnout is expected since about 75 per cent of the golfers remained for the dinner at Willowick. Dinner Tickets Gay said that dinner tickets were priced at $3 and that they could be obtained from him or from Les Moon, George Miller, Pep Lake, Joe Scholz, or Rock Conklin. A brief meeting and some form of entertainment will be given following the day's play. Gay said that plans for the 13th annual AGA tournament would probably be made at the Lakewood meeting. Bee Blows Toppen On Arizona Refs NEW YORK (AP) — Long Island University's touring basketball forces are finding their 6000-mile road trip mighty rocky; not at all like playing at home, where they have won 139 straight games. The Blackbirds have won once and lost twice on the current swing—both setbacks coming by a margin of only three points. And, perhaps the worst is yet to come, as LIU plays Kansas State tomorrow night, and St. Louis Saturday. Arizona staged a brilliant rally last night to nip Long Island 62-61. Jerry Dillon's free toss in the waning seconds enabled Arizona to extend its home floor string to 73 consecutive victories. After the game, Clair Bee LIU's veteran coach, took a direct rap at the officials, claiming "they took the ball game away from us just as everyone on the coast said they would." Bee was probably miffed because his high-scoring ace, Sherman White, was forced out of the game on fouls with 12 minutes to go. he said as he is a story of the Oklahoma and M-DePaul game last in Chicago. 500 people turned out to Aggies play DePaul in Fifth largest town in Ogles are coached by the Henry Iba, leading exciting a slow deliberate effort built around ball when we played De Paulton, a tank town in Chicago, we had in the aisles.

The Missouri coach is also under consideration for football coaching jobs at the University of Southern California and Ohio State. Yesterday Faurot said proposals made to him by the Missouri athletic committee were not acceptable. He added, however, that he had not resigned. Asked just where he stood with Missouri Faurot commented, "I don't know." His salary is no longer an issue. He has been offered a modest increase to the present $11,500. He also gets $825 in annuity allowances. Another conference of the athletic committee has been scheduled for today. The Los Angeles Examiner said today unless Missouri officials satisfy Faurot, he will fly to Los Angeles Thursday to confer with Southern California officials on the coaching job there. Both Faurot and SC Athletic Director Willis O. Hunter declined to comment on the Examiner's story. Faurot said negotiations at Missouri have centered around his desire to obtain a "workable plan" for attracting and keeping capable athletes at the school. He also has indicated he would like greater control of the athletic department. Although he is director of athletics, the athletic committee handles much of the policy making and business affairs. On the other hand, Oklahoma A & M has a tougher row to hoe, especially with some Big Seven and Missouri Valley foes waiting to ambush Coach Hank Iba's lads. With 138 sportswriters and broadcasters voting in this week's poll, Kentucky received 42 first place votes and Oklahoma A & M 31. The Avgies, with an 18-1 record, were third last week. On the basis of 10 points for first place, nine for second, and so forth, Coach Adolph Rupp's Kentucky quintet had 988 points this week, compared with 969 for Oklahoma A & M. The same 10 teams in the top 10 remained there, but seven of them changed positions in a skimpy week of basketball play due to mid-year examinations. Indiana (13-1), leading the Big Ten parade, moved up from fifth a week ago to third place, with 638 points. After Long Island comes Bradley (18-3) in fifth, a drop from fourth; Columbia, the country's only major unbeaten team with 12 straight, up from seventh to sixth; Kansas State (13-2), ninth last week, moving to seventh; North Carolina State (19-2) holding to eighth; St. John's of Brooklyn (13-2), dropping from sixth to ninth; and St. Louis (14-4) hanging on to tenth. Here are the leading teams with points based on ten for first place vote, nine for second, etc. (First place votes and season records including last night's games in parentheses): 1. Kentucky (42) (13-1) 2. Oklahoma A&M (31) (18-1) 3. Indiana (7) (12-1) 4. Long Island U. (3) (16-2) 5. Bradley (1) (18-3) 6. Columbia (4) (12-0) After the game, Clair Bee LLIU's veteran coach, took a direct rap at the officials, claiming "they took the ball game away from us just as everyone on the coast said they would." Bee was probably miffed because his high-scoring ace, Sherman White, was forced out of the game on fouls with 12 minutes to go. Meanwhile, Kentucky, ranked No. 1 in this week's Associated Press poll, blasted Tulane, 104-68, in a Southeastern conference game at New Orleans. It was the first time Kentucky scored more than 100 points. In two Western conferences tilts, Northwestern stomped on Ohio State, 78-67, and Purdue climbed out of the cellar with a 59-55 victory over Michigan State in overtime. Association Started in Mid-'30s to Band Together Anaheim Linksmen That man without a country routine is old stuff now, but Anaheim has put a new twist on the orphan angle—it has golfers (nearly 150 of them) without a course. This isn't a new and startling revelation to most people. It's always been this way: As long as anyone cares to remember, Anaheim has had its share of golfers; and as long as anyone cares not to remember, Anaheim has never had a golf course to call its own. Realizing that it might never have a course here in Anaheim, a group of men banded together some 15 years ago to do the next best thing to bringing a golf course here to Anaheim—they would take themselves to the nearest available course. Start Small That was the beginning of the Anaheim Golf association, started in the mid-'30s as close as anyone can tell.

The original charter members started a membership drive, charging $1.50 to anyone who cared to enter and they were off. Since they knew that there were many golfers present in Anaheim, they set as their purpose the banding together of those sportsmen to play golf regularly. In order to accomplish these motives, the association scheduled an annual tournament (the 13th one is coming up) and a number of field days where the association members would compete for various prizes. Grown Up New Today the organization is no longer a baby, but it still finds itself without a course. It has grown to 147 members, many of them belonging to various private clubs in addition to their AGA membership. Fullerton, which has a similar situation, has been far behind in the enrollment race. George Miller is president of the AGA and Dick Gay is its secretary-treasurer—the only one that it has had since its founding. The association has a board of directors—Al Riutcel, W. N. Miller, Vincent Borden, Bob Rossberg and Harry Pearson—and even has its own handicapper, Les Moon. Secretary Gay expressed a growing fear that is felt by the collective members of the association with the ever-increasing population of California. More and Less "More and more people are coming to this state," he said, "but instead of golf courses increasing, they are on the decrease. The latest to go is the California Country club in Los Angeles. It is being torn up to be subdivided for new homes. “This makes it increasingly tough for anyone to play golf on the courses that are available. The AGA, for example, has regular times at Willowick when the tee is reserved for it. But it is impossible for anyone to go to a large course, such as Lakwyn on MRS.

Usually these individuals follow times of endeavor during the rest of the year which have no remote connection with either tax recording or accounting. Usually armed with a dollar tax book and with little or no more knowledge of the complex tax structure than the persons whom they serve, they offer bargain prices and "big refunds". Having no regular place of business, they escape the normal overhead of the established professional man who maintains an office for the convenience of his clients. When the Bureau reviews the return, they are gone and the taxpayer must face his problems with the Bureau of Internal Revenue alone.
