Fate of Pro Football Outcome of NFL Anti Seton Hall Still Tops In Cage Poll BY WILL GRDISLEY NEW YORK OP — The undefeated Seton Hall Pirates are No. 1 in the Associated Press basketball for the sixth straight week Tuesday, and are they showing atain from the pressure? Not at all," said their coach, Honey Russell. "Ordinarily a thing like this might make a team tight, conscious that they're being rated week in and week out the best in the country. Poll Helped But not these boys. I think, if anything, the poll has helped them. They believe they're No. 1 and every time they go out they're determined to prove it. No jitter on this club." The South Orange, N.J., team, winner of 26 games without a setback this season, held their top position in a close vote of the nation's sports writers and broadcasters. Despite Seton Hall's continued successes, the Big Ten's Indiana has closed in on the Pirates' point advantage during the last three weeks. The latest poll showed the Jerseyites No. 1 by the slender margin of 12 points over the runner-up Hoosiers. N(ICE) GOING FOR 'HOMEMADE' CA Minnesota student, drives homemade sports car to victory at Lake "special" with a 1932 Ford frame, 1947 Ford engine and 1936 Ritz Cleaners Defeat Chad Williams Quint in League Gorgeous Gussy Years to Return To Luxurious Life of an Amateur PALM SPRINGS, Calif. — Gorgeous Gussy Moran, who found her professional tennis career a one tour affair, sort of yearns again for the luxurious life of an amateur. The sharply 28-year-old who gained worldwide publicity when she appeared at Wimbledon a few years back in a tennis attire including lace panties, turned pro in 1850 for a reported $75,000. But she revealed Tuesday that tour didn't do as well as expected and she didn't get quite that much—say closer to $50,000. And she hasn't played competitive tennis since except for fun or in charity affairs. There just aren't enough girls in pro tennis who explains. She said her standard of living was higher as an amateur. "But as an amateur you didn't make any money," she was asked. "That's right, but you do travel all over the world. You know you go to India and every place. And of course you don't pay for it yourself. The tennis associations do." She explained she'd considered applying for reinstatement as an amateur last month, but didn't go through with the plan. "Now I don't know whether I will or not. I just don't know if it's worth it." And about those lace tennis panties, Gussy says the incident still embarrasses her. Basset Seen No. 1 Scorer in Church Basketball League The Church of Nazarene's center, Howard Basset, is an almost cinch to win the league scoring race. Howard has garnered 220 points in 12 games for an impressive 19.7 average per game. His closest competition is the "jump shot" artist from the First Baptist quintet, John Steinborn. Steinborn is quite a jump back of Basset in the scoring as he has accounted for 175 points in the 11 games he has played. Gil Henning of the Zion Lutheran church has a 16-point average but has only taken part in six league contests. There is only one game left to go in the regular league schedule so it may be that the last game will not affect the final outcome of the scoring race. Church League Leading Scorers 1.

Football Hanging On Anti-Trust Dispute 'Death Knell' of Game Seen if League Loses PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A defense attorney predicted Tuesday that a government victory in the antitrust suit against the National Football League would mean the "death knell of pro-football," or at least a nationwide blackout of radio and telecasts of pro games. Francis J. Myers, former U.S. senator from Pennsylvania and one of seven NFL lawyers, opened the defense in U.S. District Court after a 10-day recess. He accused the Justice Department of being a "benevolent despot," after Judge Allan K. Grim turned down a second plea to dismiss the case. Asked Dismissal The NFL asked for dismissal on the basis of the recent U.S. Sixth Circuit Court decision ruling that baseball is not a business and is not engaged in interstate commerce. Attorney Bernard Nordlinger claimed the same immunity for professional football. Judge Grim denied the motion, merely saying he wished to hear the entire case before making a decision. The government has charged the NFL radio and TV policy is a box. COP Picks STOCKTON (AP) — Jack Myers was named head coach at the College of the Holy Cross Tuesday, and the team listed eight reasons for his selection over 47 other candidates. College President Robert Burns selected Myers to re-enforce Ernie Jorge who resigned recently to become an assistant with the Chicago Cardinals. Myers, who signed a three contract at an unannounced ary, was an outstanding co-professional player. He played fullback at the university of California at Los Angeles in 1944–6-7. In 1946 he held UCLA's mainstay on its Bowl team. Pro Record He was fullback for the Raleigh Delphia Eagles from 1948 through 1950, and in 1950 won the "valuable Eagle" award. Myers joined the Los Anza Rams last year and would play for them again this season had not the COP cance occurred. He had been assistant coach at COP until Jorge in 1951. Eight Reasons In announcing Myers' appointment, Burns gave the follow-eight reasons: 1—Character quality, important to Pacific. 2—An outstanding college ord, both as a player and a student. 3—Familiar with football COP. 4—The majority choice of Pacific football squad. 5—An outstanding playing Nefeat Champion Bob in League Playoffs Rams to Return an Amateur In India and every place, course you don’t pay for yourself. The tennis association explained she’d consider applying for reinstatement at amateur last month, but go through with the plan. I don’t know whether I not, I just don’t know worth it. About those lace tennis Gussy says the incident embarrasses her. Ritz Cleaners finally achieved their season’s goal last night in the City Basketball League playoffs by beating Bob Williams Sporting Goods—the league champions—50-38. In the second tilt of the playoffs Northrop took a close game from the Optimist-sponsored club 41-38. Hugh Faulkner, the league top scorer, hit 12 field goals and three free throws for a total of 27 points. In the Cleaner vs Williams game, the Ritz club out hustled and out ran their opposition. The score was tied repeatedly throughout the first half as the quarter score was knotted at nine each, and the halftime count was 21 all. Duane Masterson broke the half-time tie as he connected on a driving lay up. Bob Stuart hit two jump shots from the top of the key, and the Ritz bunch was never headed. Ed Stringer hit for two hook shots in the closing minutes to put his team out of reach by the Williams five. Williams played without the services of their star, Jumping Joe Bruce and his rebounding and scoring were sorely needed. Jerry Philip and Windy Range hit for 13 and 12 points but didn’t receive enough help from their teammates in the point department. Edd Stringer took scoring honors with a total of 15. Bob Stuart garnered 12, most of which came in the third quarter as Ritz began to pull away. In the second classic of the night, it was all 6'8" Hugh Faulkner, as he piled up his 27 points on hook shots, layups, tipins or from outside. Nothing Hugh threw at the bucket went astray. The game was close all the way with only two or three points separating the two teams up until the last minutes of the game when with three minutes to go Northrop enjoyed a five point marsh. Jake VanDyke hit for 10 tallies to lead the Optimist five in the scoring column. Asked Dismissal The NFL asked for dismissal on the basis of the recent U.S. Sixth Circuit Court decision ruling that baseball is not a business and is not engaged in interstate commerce. Attorney Bernard Nordlinger claimed the same immunity for professional football. Judge Grim denied the motion, merely saying he wished to hear the entire case before making a decision. The government has charged the NFL radio and TV policy is a boycott of stations, denies the public opportunity to hear broadcasts and to see telecast of certain games, and restraints trade and commerce. Myers said the government was attempting to extend its "paternal protection sufficiently far as to guarantee to everyone of our 160-million citizens a free seat at every one of four football games, a free seat mind you, even though the granting of that free seat might empty our ball parks, bankrupt our clubs and thus eventually assure those 160-million Americans a Western movies rather than a football game." Explanation Myers told the court the public would get no broadcasts or telecasts for professional football games if the NFL restrictions were deemed illegal. He said that without these restrictions no team is in a position to sell rights and no sponsor is interested in purchasing the rights to broadcast and televeise games. Under the present league policy as many people bear and see telecasts of league games as is permitted by the circumstances of the league operation." Myers said. “If the government is successful in the present suit no one will see telecasts and no one will hear broadcasts of professional football.” The attorney asserted a government victory “would surely be the death Knell of professional football in the United States.” He said the mere fact that a person buys a radio or television set does not entitle that person by a “twist of the dial” to enjoy an event in which the producer or sponsor has invested time, energy and money. Rams Sign Battles LOS ANGELES (AP)—The Los Angeles Rams football club announced the signing Tuesday of William Bill.Battles, an assistant at the University of Indiana last year, as their new line coach. Head Coach Hampton Pool selected the 38-year-old Battles upon the recommendation of many names coaches in the east, including Tuss McLaughry, who had Battles as an aldea at Dartmouth in 1945-48. Eight Reasons In announcing Myers’ appointment, Burns gave the follow eight reasons: 1-Character quality, important to Pacific. 2-An outstanding college record. 3-An interest in physical education and training of prospective teachers and coaches for high schools. 4-He has a wife who fits in a college family pattern at cfcif, and 5-Public relations and public speaking ability. Fullerton Jaycee Baseball Team To Meet Pasadena Fullerton’s Junior College has ball nine will try again to bring its record up to the 500 mark they engage in a return with the Pasadena “Bulldogs” day at Pasadena.

Nazarenes Clinch Title in Church Basketball League With one game left to go in the regular league play, the Nazarenes church basketball team has clinched the league championship. First Baptist is also installed in the runner-up position, but there is a three-way battle for the third spot as Zion Lutheran, Grae Lutheran and Church of Christ have only one game separating them in the standings. Next week’s games will be crucial ones for these three teams as they fight for the positions in the league playoffs. Church League Standings Opponents Scarce For Hard-Hitting Phillie Battler PARIS, UP—European promoters are running out of opponents for power punching Percy Bassett of Philadelphia. The American Negro has won his two bouts here by knockouts. He was scheduled to meet Belgian Jean Sneyers in Brussels March 14 but Sneyers was upset by France's Robert Cohen Monday and lost the match. Cohen's managers don't want any part of Bassett yet for their young prospect. Ray Famechon, who was stopped in four rounds by Bassett in their battle for the interim featheryweight championship would like another shot at Bassett but promotors doubt whether Parisians will pay to see it. 2 Anaheim Gazette WED.
