"She will nave her PhD when she's 23. By then shell speak 10 languages." W. Grant Mithcell, who might well be called "the Squire of Alexandria Bay," was telling the other day about the enjoyment, and the sorrows, of being associated with the Thousand Islands Wild Life Refuge. It's a large preserve right near the Interna-tionl Bridge, and when we were there Saturday we saw scores of ducks paddling peacefully in the bay. "We have deer here all winter, so sure of being protected that they'll walk right up to the few visitors permitted in said Grant, "And of course we have a flock of wild turkeys, who nest high in the tall trees here, even in the most bitter cold of winter.

Scared? Those turkeys get out on the highway and walk across as though they had the world to themselves." One of the sorrows came last winter. It was so cold that the little bay frozs over, and that's all some predators needed. They couldn't invade the refuge any other way, but they came in on the ice and shot three of the turkeys. "Just for meanness, too," said Grant. "They didn't even bother to try to pick them up.

Just left them for dead, and went away." It was a privilege to visit the refuge, and a privilege, two, meeting so many old and new friends from the news media. Wrestling Rules Will Be Discussed Vin Polantio, Syracuse University's assistant wrestling coach, will compare AAU wrestling rules wih free-style rules Thursday afternoon at 4 p.m. in he seend floor gym at Archbold. All wrestlers competing in Saturday's Junior Olympics trials at Cornell are asked to attend CLEANER Luii .410 Hitter AVAILABLE VtaORY-WtGMAm amd omit flNl STOMS SD Picks Oregon Star NEW YORK (AP) Dave Roberts, a .410 hitter tor the University of Oregon, became only the second collegian in the 15-year history of the baseball draft to be selected as the No. 1 pick in the regular phase when he was tapped by the San Diego Padres Tuesday.

The Padres, who batted No-1 in the draft of free agents because they had the worst record in the majors last season, went into the draft looking for the best player available rather than a player who had the potential to fill a specific position. They feel they found both in Roberts, a right-handed hitting and throwing third baseman, who in 37 games hit 12 homers and struck out only once in 144 at-bats. "When you have the privilege of choosing No. 1 you want to pick the best," explained Pete Bavasi, director of minor league operations for the Padres. "Some clubs talk about picking by position; we felt he was the best player available.

"By coincidence he also plays a position our club is in need of." Roberts, 21, was the first collegian to be selected No. 1 in the free agent phase of the draft since the Oakland A's MMSE ASK fOH IV MADE BY STRATHMORE PRODUCTS selected outfielder Rick Monday in 1965. Four other collegians joined 19 high school products as first-round selections. Infielders were the most prized, 11 selected compared with eight pitchers, three catchers and two outfielders. How many will make the majors remains a major question-mark, but 12 players from the last two drafts already are with major league clubs, including home run leader Dave Kingman of San Francisco and pitchers Burt Hooton of the Chicago Cubs and Pete Broberg of Texas.

After San Diego selected Roberts, Cleveland picked shortstop Richard Manning, a .614 hitter at LaSalle High School in Niagara Falls, N.Y., and Philadelphia went for Larry Christiansen, a towering 6-foot-3 pitcher from Mar- ysville High School in Marys-ville, Wash. One unusual aspect of the first round was the selection of two players from one Rancho Cordova High School in Rancho Cordova, Calif. Outfielder Mike Ondina was picked by the Chicago White Sox and shortstop Jerry Manuel by Detroit.
