Show '! d il , Cats It will be heartening to many to learn that the Provo Chief League will operate again this pen N0w Sports ,- against McGUIRE GOOD, TOO Bob Cousy of the Boston Celtics gets most of the rave notices as the peer in pro basketball, when it comes to dribbling, passing and ball handling. But Mel Hatching says Dick McGuire of the N. Y. Knicki is Just as rood in these departments of play. However, Bir Mel admits Cousy is more effective because he's a much better shooter. "Opponents don't have to worry about McGuire's shooting," Mel says, "and can drop off him and concentrate on stopping his clever passing and floor play. "But they can't afford to do that against Cousy or he'll pick up a bucketful! of baskets." However, for Hutchins money, the best offensive player in the NBA is Bob Pettit of St. Louis Hawks. "He's 6-- 9, has a wonderful shooting 'touch' and has a million different shots," Mel says. KEY TO SUCCESS Bob Bullock says if Provo Timps want to have a successful season at the gate, they must draw a big crowd to the home opener. "Say what you want," Bullock claims, "but the team's financial success and drawing power will depend in a good part on getting a good crowd for the first game at home. "You get a big crowd for the opening game and everybody will go around talking about the game for the rest of the week. It's the biggest selling campaign you can have and the fans will come back for the next game ard bring their friends with them. "And once they get in the habit of coming, they'll keep coming out. It's ' as simple as that." Weather Halts Texas Tourney DALLAS, Tex.

The Utes knotted the score in the fourth inning as Dob Hogan, batting for Dick Eiler, drew base on balls from the speed pitching of Jack Cravens. He went to second on a nice sacrifice by Martin Bejzack, and scored as Tom Steinke pulled Lynn Foster off first base with hii throw on Berner's grounder. Pres Summerhay's Utes tallied twice in the fifth inning after Cravens had retired Dick White and Merrill Douglas on strikes. He lost his control and walked Bob Sanchez, and Curtis Jensen broke the tie with a hard hit single that scored the Redskin third baseman. A walk to Don Hogan and another hit by Bjzack sent the second run across the plate. Jack Cravens showed his wares to the home town folks and they saw a blazing fast ball, possibly the fastest throwing seen in this area for some time, but Utah waited for his curves and teed off on them for some timely scores. Pitcher Jack Cravens were good for four tallies in the bottom half of the second inning. Berner had his big lapse in over win Brigham Young Cougars Saturday afternoon on the new BYU diamond. It was the official opening for the new Cougar sports center. Short ceremonies marked the beginning of play on this much needed facility. Miltori Hartvig-sedean of athletics at BYU, gave a short. talk, and introduced Vice President William E. Ber-ret- t, who threw out the first ball, a left handed toss to the infield. Berner, possibly better known in collegiate circles for his work on the waxed floor, had; too much on the ball for the Cougars, who won their first game Friday, but could not take his slow breaking curves Saturday. Early Lead: The Utes romped into a 0 lead in the first inning. Gary Fotland led, off with a single; Dick White followed :suit, and Merrill Douglas blasted out a third hit to score Fotland. Crav ens forced Bob Sanchez! to fly out to Paul Kitchen in left field, but a pair of wild pitches brought White across the plate; Curt Jen-so- n then blasted out a Song triple to send Douglas home with the final run of the inning; Cats Go Ahead The Cougars went down in order in the first inning after Leon Moyes had boomed a double into center field for the first of 7-- ijji 1 a but three walks and a double by Tom Steinke, star, pitched the Redskins to V :t two hits of the ball game, that second inning when walks to formerUtah cage their Ted Berner, Saturday with a double overtime victory over the St. Louis Hawks.

Heinsohn scored six points early in the second extra period 0 to put Boston out in front with two minutes remaining. The former Holy Cross Star fouled out on the next play and received a tremendous ovation by the capacity 13,909 crowd. Veteran Slater Martin dropped in a: free throw to tie the score. Then Ramsey connected on a single free throw and chucked in another basket to give Boston a three-poiedge with a little over one minute remaining. One more free throw by Martin got the fighting Hawks back within two points of the Celtics. Hawk guard Ned Park sank a free throw with 17 seconds remaining to bring the count to the eventual final score. In the last 17 seconds, St. Louis took ' a time out and tried to set up the one big scoring play. They fed the ball, when time was i. back, to player coach Alex But the balding St. Louis coach, who entered the game in the final half minute when Ed Macauley fouled out, was called for traveling under the Hawk basket.

Before last Wednesday night's meeting, Wes Garrett, last year's president, said enthusiasm appeared to be at a decidedly low ebb. He had called a meeting the week before and not enough persons showed up to discuss my thing so the whole thing was called off. In announcing last Wednesday's meeting, Garrett warned that the league was in great jeopardy unless the people of Provo showed a lot more interest than they had previously shown. Wednesday night was looked upon as somewhat of a "night of decision." Fortunately enough parents and other interested persons showed up to elect officers and et the ball rolling for the coming: season. There are many who feel the Chief League is the most important phase of the city's junior baseball program for the main p.nd simple reason that it involves boys 15, 16, and 17 years of age. Boys of this age group are more prone to stray away from the home life and parental influence and engage in activities that lead to crime and the juvenile court. Baseball is a great deterrent juvenile delinquency. There's no doubt about that. A boy who is active in baseball or some other sport will have less idle time in which to get into trouble. For one reason or another the Chief League has never received the enthusiastic support that the Pony League and Boys Baseball have. Perhaps it's because the Chief League doesn't have the emotional appeal that the other two possess. Nobody will deny the importance and the good the Pony League and Boys Baseball programs are doing for the youth of the community. But while many benefits are derived from the Pony League and Boys Baseball programs, even more are to be realized from the Chief League. e oter; Bow ffiS(Wt CENTER, PROVO 1 HI STORES 384 W.
