PAGE 2-CHILLICOTHE, MISSOURI-64601 CHILLICOTHE CONSTITUTION-TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, DECEMBER W9 Despite displeasure- Mizzou will play Bowling Area basketball COLUMBIA, Mo. The University of Missouri Tigers will play in the Dec. 29 Hall of Fame Bowl, despite displeasure among some players a the entire 117-member won't make the trip, athletic department officials say. Assistant athletic director Bob Hitch made the announcement at a Friday practice, after a 45-minute meeting with team members and coaches. Coach Warren Powers later said that only 84 of the team's 117 players will make the trip.

Among those who will not go are injured players and those ineligible to play. "There is hardly a team in the country which will take everybody on the squad to a bowl game," Powers said. The players met privately Thursday to discuss their objections at the prospect of more than 30 players being left behind when the team travels to Birmingham, for the game against South Carolina. The team discussed boycotting the trip if the entire team wasn't allowed to go, but made no commitment to take such action, several players said Friday. "We were concerned about the walk-ons and the other guys who wouldn't be able to go," said David Newman, a senior flankerback.

"We just wanted to try and present this Coach a don't mean to put any pressure on him, but we thought he should know how we feel." The university had announced arrangements had been made for the reduced squad to save travel costs. More than 150 school officials, members of the board of curators. coaches and family members also are to make the trip, expected to cost the university about $110,000. In related action, members of the school's band, Marching Mizzou, met Friday and discussed a decision made Thursday for the band not to attend and perform at the bowl game. The decision was made because university officials offered the band only $20,000, not enough money to meet travel expenses for all 224 members of the band.

Band members decided in the closed meeting to ask the school's athletic department to give the money they would not use to the football team to finance the trip for the rest of the squad. Powers said, however, the extra money could not be used for that purpose because players' accommodations al- ready had been arranged in Birmingham and could not be changed. In an announcement late Friday, Chancellor Barbara Uehling and Athletic Director Dave Hart said the $20,000 would be divided equally between a band uniform fund and a fund to retire debts on a recently completely athletic training facility. The coach said the controversy about who was going to the bowl game had created confusion about the trip. "We're right in the middle of final exams, which are the most important thing at this particular time," Powers said.

"We also ha veto prepare for the actual game against South Carolina. This is enough pressure without adding any undue outside pressure on our student athletes." Bosworth snaps Bogard's home court winning streak at 34 BOGARl)--The long home court winning streak is no more. The CLAA defending champion has lost early in the season. The Bosworth Bulldogs, long a team that other league foes pounded around in easy fashion made league history last night as they dumped the Bogard Vikings, 63-53, and, with the mighty upset and the end of a long home court winning streak, a new light was thrown on the CLAA conference race early in the season. The road victory for the visiting Bulldogs' halted a Bogard home court winning streak extending to 34 games and years.

Losing Coach David Sugg offered no excuses in seeing his team lose for the first time this season. Troy Helm helped spark the big upset with 19 points and he got support from Troy Wilson with 10 and Ronnie Painter's 11 as the records of both teams went to 3-1 for the Reason. Kevin Brock and Billy Paul each dropped in 14 points and Mike Flick. Bogard's 6-5 pivot, finished with a season low of 11. Bosworth started right by grabbing a 15-8 first quarter lead and held onto the lead through most of the game.

SCORE BY QUARTERS: BOSWORTH 15 15 12 21--63 BOGARD 8 16 10 19--53 The Bogard girls squeaked past Bosworth, 27-23, in the opening game of the evening, handing the visitors their fourth straight loss. The win squared Bogard's record at 2-2. Bogard earned its victory in the first and last quarters while suffering through two poor middle quarters. The host girls moved to a 10-4 first period lead and outscored Bosworth 10 to 2 in the final eight minutes. However, Bosworth outscored Bogard, 17 to 10, in the middle two periods to keep the contest close.

Cheryl Kerby led the way for the winners with 16 points and Suzanne Jacobs hit nine for Bosworth.

Chillicothe girls, having their worst shooting night of the young 1979-80 basketball season, couldn't hit the broad side of a barn (to put it realistically). The Lady Hornets connected on just 10 of 42 shots from the floor for a poor 24 percent and that pretty much told the tale in their second straight setback of the season. Chillicothe, now 2-3, was flat from the beginning hitting a disastrous four of 23 shots from the floor in the opening half for 17 percent.

On the other hand, Marshall wasn't setting the world on fire but the Owlettes did manage to hit a much CHS frosh win third ST. JOSEPH Head CHillicothe Freshman Coach Rob Rust knew it was just a matter of time before his frosh basketball team would break the ice and play the basketball they are capable of playing. Thaf time was Thursday night in the annual Lafayette Invitational and it came against a West Platte club which evidently ran out of time. The Chillicothe frosh flexed their muscles especially in a 24-2 third period in scoring a 46-18 third place victory. The victory hiked the Hornets' season record to 3-1.

Chillicothe journeys to Cameron next Tuesday night. Kelly Mason, enjoying another good offensive night, banged in a game-high 16 points and Matt Porrish drilled in 12 tallies in leading Chillicothe while Dave Seavey sank four points for West Platte. better percent from the floor than did the visiting Lady Hornets. Marshall led 17-13 in the first half and padded its lead to 28-21 with eHO-8 margin in the third quarter. Both teams drilled in 13 points in the closing eight minutes.

Chillicothe outrebounded Marshall, 34-26, behind the hustling efforts of Susan Raney, who yanked down a team-leading 11 caroms. Casey Ruff spearheaded the Marshall charge with a game-high 18 points while Margie Ellison pumped in 12 points and Gates tossed in 10 to pace the Lady Hornets. MARSHALL (41) Player FC FT PU.

Brookfield led by as many as nine and trailed by as many as five, according to Head Coach Larry Sager.

The BHS Bulldogs led by five with less than two minutes to play. "We didn't play that bad at all," Trenton Coach Griffith said. "Brookfield just played that good."
