Ames OK to Play with Bees, But Varsity May Miss Two Good and bad news came to the Colonists today, but the Bees got most of the cheering stuff while all of that of the tear-jerking variety fell upon the varsity. The Bees, who face Huntington Beach tomorrow night in the game that will probably decide that division of the Sunset league race, welcomed guard Bill Ames back to practice this week. He'll be ready to open against the Oilers tomorrow night. BEYERLINES by Ernie Beyer It is probably little consolation to the members of last year's California and Southern Calinia basketball teams, but Western sportswriters are busily taking shots at Long Island university in retaliation for the verbal abuse dished out by New York writers last season. Last year, SC and Cal played in the Garden, didn't look too sharp and were severely criticized by the New York writers. Now the West Coast writers are having their day as the Blackbirds flounder. Most of them are criticizing Coach Olair Bee for his temperamental outbursts after LIU lost to Arizona earlier this week. But from the accounts that can be believed, it is probably safe to assume that the Blackbirds were given a rather losey officiating job. Ames, who had earned a starting berth after his excellent showing in early season games, was given a scholastic boot by the high school last Friday afternoon, forcing him out of the Orange game, but he was allowed to re-enter on Monday and thus is in good graces once again. Ames has teamed with Ronnie Bevins to give the Colonists their outside punch this year. Bevins and he have run one-two in scoring in nearly every Anaheim game this year. His absence in the lineup was felt heavily by the Bees last week when the Panthers were able to stop Bevins satisfactorily and make the Colonists attempt to penetrate their tight zone. Coach Bill Hunstock beamed broadly on Tuesday night when he said, "I think that I'll be able to fit him in the lineup." Not all was so jolly for the varsity, however. For the second time for each of them this season, it looks as though guard Dennis Denny and forward Jim Ball may miss this weekend's game. Both Most of them are criticizing Coach Clair Bee for his temperamental outburst after LIU lost to Arizona earlier this week. But from the accounts that can be believed, it is probably safe to assume that the Blackbirds were given a rather lousy officiating job. Bee centered all of his blasts at one W. H. Kisner. The other official, he conceded had called them OK. Remembering that LIU lost by a single point, consider the fact that Kisner called five technical fouls on Long Island during the game. Five! Why most teams won't get that many in a season. And for what were they called? Among others, Bee lists the following "reasons" for calling the technical: 1. Jeering from the stands in back of the LIU bench. "We CINA-GAR DRIVE-IN THEATRE Out Center 8 ml. W. of Anaheim 65th Lincoln Ave. COMING Fri. Sat. Sun.

An LIU player failed to raise his arm "high enough" when a personal foul was called on him. 3. A technical foul was called once when the LIU bench leaped into the air with a shout to celebrate a Blackbird basket. It was the 73rd consecutive satisfactorily and make the Colonists attempt to penetrate their tight zone. Coach Bill Hunstock beamed broadly on Tuesday night when he said, "I think that I'll be able to fit him in the lineup." Not all was so jolly for the varsity, however. For the second time for each of them this season, it looks as though guard Dennie Denny and forward Jim Ball may miss this week's game. Both had been sidelined earlier by severe colds—a malady that has prevented Anaheim from putting a completely able-bodied team on the floor in any league game. Both Ball and Denny failed to suit up for Tuesday's alumni game, indicating that both will be doubtful starters tomorrow. The Colonist sicklist for the league season reads this way: 1. Huntington Beach — Denny out with cold. Played four minutes in third quarter. 2. Fullerton — Ball out with cold. Did not sit up. 3. Newport — Ball still suffering, but suited up and played briefly in second half. 4. Santa Ana—John Steinborn out. Did not suit up. 5. Orange—Steinborn still out. Fortunately, not all of the news is bad for the varsity. To help compensate for these losses it has added Eddie Ramirez, heretofore ineligible forward. It is likely that he will start in Denny's place against the Oilers, just as he did against the alumni. He made an auspicious debut in a Colonist, uniform. He dropped the first shot that he attempted and then went on to tally nine points in the game, second only to Ira Webber. At last reports, everyone else's health was in satisfactory shape.

LIU Takes It On Chin Again NEW YORK (P)—Mighty Kentucky keeps on rolling but Long Island university and North Carolina State, two other basketball topnotchers, are learning how tough it is away from home. The Kentuckians (16-1) are winning them all now, at home and on the road, the latest an 81-59 trouncing of Louisiana State last night. Seven-foot Bill Spivey sparked the Southeastern conference leaders with 24 points. Bobby Watson pitched in with 21 points, mostly on long field goals. Kentucky ranks No. 1 nationally in this week's Associated Press poll. Powerful Kansas State (14-2) of the Big Seven drubbed LIU, 85-65, before 13,400 in the Wildcats' new field house. LIU, unbeaten before starting on a western trip last week, now has lost three of its four road games. Sherman White, who scored 37 points, kept LIU in contention the first half; the Blackbirds were behind only 38-37 at the buzzer. Louisville (16-2) caught fire in the first half then went on to wallop visiting North Carolina State 86-70. CCNY, another touring New York City five, handed John Carol its ninth straight loss, 79-67. Tenth-ranking St. Louis came from behind to win, 47-45, over Tulsa. Texas A & M edged Texas in a deliberate contest, 32-29. Californity won by a single point. Pitching Weak in 19 (This is the ninth of a series of 16 articles written by the major league managers for The Associated Press under their own brylines giving a view of their teams for 1951 and stating up the other clubs) By CHARLEE DRESSEN BROOKLYN (P)—As you know, I have been away from Brooklyn since 1946. However, I do know that the main weakness last year was the pitching. To offset this we have added several pitchers from our minor league clubs. We also intend to work our pitching staff differently from the previous years. We think that by doing so, it will improve the staff over last year. The rookie from whom I expect help is Ray Moore, a righthanded pitcher, who has made a good record in the minor leagues. Scouts have assured me that he has major league ability. If he can control his stuff, he will make the club. Another is Lamar Bridges, a shortstop who had a good year at Montreal. He is a Another Schedule For City League Hoping that it would also be the last one, League Director Bill Brady today passed out the fifth revised schedule for city league play. Conflicting dates with high school activities forced him to change again the schedule which was made only two days ago. The ending date of the league remains the same, with playoffs scheduled to start on March 12, the same as before. basketball coaches. The good doctor has been mapping hoop strategy since 1908—12 years and two world wars ago. During that time, Allen's teams have won 677 games while losing only 195 for an amazing average of .776. The versatile 65-year-old coaching wizard once directed three different teams in one year. In 1909 Allen was head man at Kansas, Baker university and of the Haskell Indiana—Jim Thorpe's old stamping grounds. Those three teams won 74 games for Allen that year and lost only 10. This is Phog's 34th year at Kansas. He's won six Missouri Valley titles and 13 Big Six and Big Seven championships for the Jayhawks. But ironically, Allen does not own the best winning percentage in the land. The honor goes to one of his prize students, Adolph Rupp of Kentucky. In 21 years at the blue grass institution, Rupp's Wildcats have piled up a 424-78 record for a 845 percentage. Here's a list of the leading coaches and their lifetime records at all schools.

CLIFE MAPES Chisox Leading in Major Signups NEW YORK UP—It won't be long before the major leagues open spring training but don't be surprised if a couple of big name boys are missing come March 1. Although the moguls are announcing signings daily, a check shows several notables missing. However, none can be classified as holdouts. Top performers unsigned include Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals, Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox, Joe DiMaggio of the New York Yankees, Hal Newhouser and George Kell of Detroit, Bob Lemon of Cleveland, Jackie Robinson of Brooklyn, Andy Pafko of the Chicago Cubs, Larry Janssen of the New York Yankees. Wolfpack Shooting At Franthe Place NEW YORK UP—The North Carolina Wolfpack paid the nation's major college teams in the seldom-considered factor of number of shots attempted per basketball game. If N.C. State could connect on 100 per cent of its shots, it would average 200 points per game. The only other team throwing them at anywhere near this pace is New York university.

Trojan Coach Suspends Don Eby LOS ANGELES (P)—Southern California's Trojan basketball team may be without the services of its star sophomore forward, Don Eby, when it plays Santa Clara and San Francisco university at San Francisco this weekend. If N. C. State could connect on 100 per cent of its shots, it would average 200 points per game. The only other team throwing them at anywhere near this pace is New York university. In 19 games through Jan. 27, the NCAA service bureau reported today, North Carolina State tried for 3779 points (1582 field goals and 615 free throw attempts) or 198.9 per evening. NYU tried 198.5 per game. Cincinnati still tops the point-making average, with 79.8 points per game. N. C. State has 78, followed by Long Island university with 77.6 and NYU with 75. LIU has tried only 172.8 points per game and its 77.6-point-a-game average gives the Blackbirds the best all-around shooting percentage, with 44.9 per cent scored of all points attempted. In队 defense, Oklahoma A & M remains tops, allowing the opposition an average of 45.1 points a game. Others in the top 10 offense leaders are Bradley 74.9, fifth, Louisville 74.4, Columbia 73.8, Boston College 73.5, Colgate 73.3, and St. Francis of Brooklyn, 72.4. Phone 4018 ERMISCH "MY CLEANER" Branch: 250 W. Center Plant: 117 W. Cypress Anaheim Weak in 1950, Better Next Year -- Dressen Cuyk, a lefthanded pitcher who spent most of last season at Fort Worth in the Texas league. He finished with Brooklyn and his record indicates he has the stuff. His work with the Dodgers last year should help him a great deal this year. Another rookie who should help up is Don Thompson, a lefthanded hitting outfielder who had a fine year at Montreal. He has played enough ball to know how by now. He started as a pitcher but went to the outfield and has improved very fast. Another who would be a cinch if he can hit major league pitching is Jim Bates, a third baseman at Hollywood last year. He can field and possesses a rifle arm. He also has power but is not an average hitter. I think our club will improve over last year because we intend to have a stronger bench. Most all of our players served in the last war. Also most of them are married and have children. Then we have a few above the age limit. Therefore, at present we are pretty well fixed for the military draft. As for the rest of the league, the Giants have improved and also the Braves. Philadelphia lost a good pitcher in Curt Simmons who will be hard to replace. St. Louis also has improved a great deal. I think it will be a close race among Brooklyn, New York, Philadelphia, Boston and St. Louis. I am judging from the rosters as they stand today. Of course, if there is a drastic change in the military setup, my information probably will be useless. Nominate Murray To Follow Wade DURHAM, N. C. (P)—William D. (Bill) Murray, athletic director and football coach at Delaware, has been named football coach at Duke. Murray's appointment was announced yesterday by Duke President Hollis Edens.
