PAGE 30 TUCSON LY CITIZEN Ross Rips Garduiio For Title PHOENIX UPI (Rockabye) Ross of Miami scored an llth round technical knockout over Mesa's Luis (Nature Boy) Garduno last night to win the Arizona championship. Ross was in command through most of the late going with sharper punching and a good left jab. There were no knockdowns until the final round when Garduno fell for a six-count after taking a savage left-right combination to the chin. The fifth round, aside from the windup frame, had the Madison Square Garden crowd on its feet. Ross smashed an overhand right to the side of Garduno's head and apparently had his man hurt.

But Luis came back and almost put down Ross with a looping right of his own. BOTH MEN were groggy as they wandered back to corners. Garduno's nose bled profusely from the sixth round on. He absorbed tremendous punishment from body punches and was out on his feet, refusing to go down' when referee Red Burger; halted matters in 2:53. i ROSS HIT the 22-year-old) from Mesa at least a dozen; times just before the fight! was called.

It was Garduno's only loss In 29 pro fights. He had one i draw. For Ross, a relative newcomer in the pro ranks, it i was his eighth by knockout. No losses. Both men weighed 148.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 21, I960 Arizona JOHN McQUOWN Offensive back BILL TOBEN Defensive back DUANE WROBEL Defensive lineman JOHN BURKE Offensive lineman Burke Earns Citizen Award, Then Breaks Foot; Other Players Honored By BOB CRAWFORD John Burke broke his foot just five days too late as far as Rincon is concerned. The Amphitheater captain, slated to be sidelined at least three weeks, wreaked enough havoc in the Ranger line from his guard spot Friday night to be named one of the first four Citizen Players of the Week. Burke, a tall 175-pounder, cinched the nod as the week's top offensive lineman by opening up a hole for (jeorge Jackson's 41-yard touchdown sprint that keyed Amphi's 13-7 upset victory.

But last night Burke broke a bone in his right foot when he tripped over an imbedded water sprinkler during a wind sprint. "He's still captain of our team, though," said Coach Bob Jacobs, "even if we have to carry him on the field. He played an outstanding game against Rincon and we're going to miss him in the line." Burke is joined on this week's Citizen honor list by two heroes of Salpointe's 28-7 win over Catalina plus Bill Toben of Flowing Wells. Lancer quarterback John McQuown was named top offensive back and guard Duane Wrobel was selected as defensive lineman. Toben was the choice as defensive back.

Salpointe Coach Gene McCarter praised McQuown for calling "a beautiful game" in his first shot as No. 1 Lancer signal-caller. He completed 5 of 10 passes for 111 yards Bob Franklin George Cowden U.S. ROYAL MASTER Smartest thing on wheels and the safest Give your car the magic touch of NARRO-WHITE "STAR STREAK STYLING" FREE PREVIEW on your own car without removing your ttret.

Wrobel blocked a punt, knocked down a key pass and led the continuous defensive charge on Trojan quarterback Tom Murphy.

Both Lancers are seniors. Toben, a fullback, was a guiding force in the Caballeros' 7-6 win at Morenci. Two times during the tight game he caught Wildcat halfback Pies Dominguez from behind when it looked like he was on his way to touchdowns. McQuown barely beat out two other outstanding backfield performers for his honor. Glenn Ezell, Amphi quarterback, tossed a short pass for the Panthers' winning touchdown against Rincon.

And Flowing Wells' Don Udell, another QB, averaged about 45 yards on four punts, kicked the winning extra point and intercepted a last-minute desperation pass at Morenci. Other players nominated by their coaches for the awards included: Offensive back: Bob Acuna and Dick Martinez of Pueblo; Al Ramirez of Sunnyside; Ted Tang of Tucson. Offensive lineman: Don Henery of Flowing Wells; Tony Veliz of Salpointe; Dave Patten of Tucson.

Oklahoma's Heat Worries Cat Coach can blame the Northwestern Wildcats if they take along stomach pumps, watch what they eat and worry about the weather when they meet the Oklahoma football team at Norman Saturday. To say the Wildcats are a bit wary is putting it mildly. They don't believe would intentionally poison players had been poisoned or their food.

Nor do they think dru d. Several davs after the weather gods have it in for them. But these things do happen and both Northwestern and Oklahoma are well aware of such situations.

Rumors followed that the Woods, Kim Win Match The tag team of Lu Kim and Jerry Woods won last night's professional wrestling main event at Tucson Garden over the team of Wilson Kohlbrecher and Al Pago Pago. Rudy Navarro and John Shane fought to a draw in the semi-main and Pablo Martinez won in his first appearance in Tucson by pinning Reyes (Spike) Garcia in the preliminary. A double main event headlines next week's card with Millie Stafford meeting Kathy Starr and the tag team of Kim-Woods meeting Kohlbrecher and Jim LaRock. "The weather will be a problem," said Parseghian. "I've kept tabs on the weather in that area and it has Pirates Retain Hustle PHILADELPHIA From Pittsburgh Manager Danny Murtaugh on down the line none of the pennant- bound Pirates is ready yet to say they're in despite their six-game lead with only nine to play.

They're still hustling. But Bob Friend's 7-1 victory over Philadelphia last night in the opener of a twi- night doubleheader sweep moved the Pirates a step closer to their first pennant in 33 years, making the magic number five. And the right-hander, who set a new club strikeout record in the seven-hit performance, was overheard telling a friend in the clubhouse: "YOU GOT your World Series tickets. I'll let you have one if I come up with an extra." After the friend left, Friend talked about his pitching. He said this was the best season he has had in his 10 years with the Pirates.

The 29-year-old Lafayette, native now has a 17-11 record but he insisted he was pitching better than he did in 1958 when he won 22 and lost 14. "MY OVER-ALL record and the statistics will bear that out," he said. Friend struck out six last night to run his season's total to 178 and set a new club record for a single year. The old record was 176 by Claude Hendrix in 1912. In 1958 Friend finished with 135 strikeouts.

He also pointed out his earned run average was better this year than in 1958 (2.85 to 3.68) and he's given up less hits (248 to 299) and less walks (42 to 61). "To put it bluntly," said Friend, "I was luckier than heck in 1953." CATCHER Smoky Burgess, sitting near Friend, remarked that the Pirates had possibly cost Friend a few wins by errors. But Friend wouldn't hear of it. He was quick to answer: "I had a couple of leads and blew them myself. I should have 20 wins but I'll have to be lucky to get them now.

But that doesn't matter. The big thing is the pennant." steadily been in the 90s. Our players have been practicing in 70 degree temperatures. To go from 70 degrees to 90 degrees can be a tremendous drain on an individual's Palmer Has Lead DUNEDIN, Fla. UPI Arnold Palmer of Ligonier, has earned $75,700 in 23 PGA tourncvients this year to top Ken enturi, his closest competitor, in golfs financial sweepstakes by more than $30,000.

Venturi has won $44,800 in 24 tournaments. THIS REASON, Parseghian plans to double platoon. He added: "They'll try to wear us down with that hustle-huddle stuff. They're used to the weather. We're not.

I'd rather have a fresh inferior player in the game instead of a tired superior player." Parseghian feels that if his sophomore loaded interior line can handle the Sooners' line, Northwestern will win. If Oklahoma's guards and tackles prove to be superior, then Oklahoma will avenge last year's drastic loss.
