Show A T" CITY, MO. (UPI) - With the aim of dramatizing the need for reorganization, the National Collegiate Athletic Association withdrew from the United Thursday States Olympic Committee. The NCAA withdrew once before, in 11)26, and, as a result, gained perity with the Amateur Athletic Union on the powerful games committees. Hut that has since changed, and is one of the reasons for the NCAAs withdrawal. For instance, the AAU now has 25 of the 4!) votes on the mens basketball games committee, While the NCAA has eight this action Will dramatize the need for Congress to reorganize the USOC so that it can be responsive to the times, said Chuck We hope that of the chairman Neinas, RelaNCAAs International tions Committee.

The Memphis Tams should have been on it. hand for the announcement and added, T do not believe the USOC can be reorganized internally. The only external force that packs enough clout to get it done is the agency that issued its charter, which is Congress. Im of the view there ought to be an entirely new organization. After that it was too late to save them from embarrassment. It is a safe bet to assume that Charlie O. Finley wont add the ABA championship to his mantle along side his Oakland As World Series trophy. After witnessing his Tams performance, he should be happy if they mane the Eastern Division playoffs. The Tams didnt find the Utah Stars humanitarians by any means. The Stars set a home court scoring record by humiliating Memphis, before 5,396 fans at the Salt Neinas and Byers stressed that no athlete, coach or NCAA member institution would be penalized for participating in the Olympics or the USOC. A statement given to newsmen read, in part: "The NCAAs withdrawal means it will not appoint representatives to USOC committees nor offer financial assistance as an organization and will recommend to its more than 700 members that they not assist in It will leave the decision to each college, each coach and each athlete to determine within their own conscience the extent to which they feel they can support the USOC as it is organized at the present time. 151-9- Palace.

I was convinced, after he rimmed nine putts from inside 10 feet that the putter and his Palmer must part. But how do you get to a devotee of his craftsmanship like Palmer. After all he styled the stick. Ft carried his name and a price tag for $18.95, available at most pro shops and several Arnold Palmer laundromats. You could order them through Palmer swimming pools, lawn mower agencies, etc. And half a hundred other houses in which he hangs his hat. But if that putter hadnt poisoned his play Wednesday we should have stood stout in the award line for amateur honors. He should have had a 63 that day the way he was staking his ball from tee to green. Thursday, he was thirsty for first place and putted the Palmer pellet as prettily as he ever did. I caught so many of the nice little old Arnie said in recounting his 65 round. That putter paid my way today. Playing with Jack Nicklaus (with a 66) and Bobby Nichols (70) Palmer had a real tester. Three of the big hitters in golf. And with the exceptionof Trevino, three of the top names in this tournament. Summer and Winter World University Games are held in alternate years, with the next one scheduled in Moscow in August. Neinas said the NCAA had raised funds for the USCOC in the past. But as the USOC has become more affluent, we have become less active, he said. He estimated the NCAA contribution at $200,000 for the 1972 Olympics. Of course when you put Nicklaus, Palmer and Nichols, who was turning the big tide in the pro-aplay here, in the same threesome, you cluster your crowd. It was happenstance, the luck of the draw, and the Sahara sponsors wouldnt have worked it that way if they had their druthers. on Arnie took the lead when he sank a four-footthe first hole for a birdie and the others couldnt catch clash. him in their head-oArnie and Nicklaus have net played together, head-ofor two years.

The Gulls were so punchless for the final half of the 1971-7campaign that some hockey fans in San Diego were disgruntled. The Gulls were able to hold on to fourth place and a playoff spot, but only because they had built up a big lead over the Sale Lake Golden Eagles by When the San Diego team began this season by scoring a total of one goal in their first two games, even the hardiest of San Diego fans were becoming discouraged. Since then, however, the San Diego team has turned things around. In their last three outings the Gulls are undefeated, furthermore their offense is producing more like old times. The San Diegans have their foes in the last three games, thereby averaging just under five goals a game. They have for upped their record to six standings points and a second place tie with the Eagles and Seattle.
