Held Learn to Ski Week at Camp Olympia Learn to Ski Week is now in' fuft swing at Olympia located on Iron County's Lake O'Brien five miles south of Up- soii. where Camp Directors Mr. and Mrs. Tom Rosand-'ch and 13 instructor-counselors are instructing. 40 teen-age and under campers.

With one camper from the well known skiing state of New Hampshire and the remainder of the camp enrollment of 25 boys and 15 girls hailing from Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois, the week-long encampment got off to a flying start late Monday afternoon after the arrival of the final bus load of youngsters. The famous ski instructor Hans Standteiner brought two of his assistants, Geprgi Katsch and Sepp Plink, with him from their headquar-j tefs at Indianhead Mt. ski area and helped chief camp tski instructor James Butterbrodt give the youngsters their first basic instructions on the O'Brien Lake bunny bowl. Puring rest periods, Stand- teiner Katsch and Plink gave a dazzling exhibition of trick skiing and advanced techniques, by way of showing the young students what is in store for them once they have mastered fundamental moves. Not all of the hopeful young ski enthusiasts are novices, Mike Diggins.

15, is an experienced high school ski team racer from Merrimack, N. right in the heart of some of America's most famous ski areas. Diggins feels that coming all that way to attend a week of ski training in Wisconsin has been well worthwhile and he never ceases to marvel at the excellent snow conditions, saying, "This snow is fabulous and you keep getting it every day or so, too. They told me out home that the hills here would be small by comparison with our own mountains, but there isn't that much difference. These ski areas, here, are plenty high enough, I think.

I plan on returning to next year's camp and I'jh sure that several of my friends will be along with me." The campers are awakened each morning by reveille at 6:30 and after a hearty breakfast the group is taken by bus to one of toe local ski areas where almost the entire day is spent on the slopes. However Trainer Vic Godfrey first leads the group in wjirmup running and calisthenics! and then group and individual ski instruction is given before the campers start skiing for fun or working on their own practice in skiing techniques. White Cap Mt. ski area has been the scene of the skiing, so far, but the youngsters will have a'chance at the other ski areas, too, winding up the encampment with ski meet on one of the trails at Indianhead Mt. on Sunday.

One day will be spent at Porcupine near Ontonagon.

Rangers Beat Wings by 4-2 By HAL BOCK Associated Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (AP) The most important man in the New York Rangers' 4-2 National Hockey League victory over Detroit Thursday night wasn't Rod Gilbert, who scored two goals and raised his league leading total to 19, or Jean Ratelle, who putted the winning goal. It was a short, heavy Japanese physician, who smokes long black cigars and specializes in back operations on French Canadian hockey players. Dr.

Kazuo Yanagisawa is the man responsible for the presence of Gilbert and Ratelle in the Rangers' line-up. Inside of four months last spring, Dr. Yanagisawa performed virtually identical spinal fusions on the two young players whose hockey careers have been strangely intermingled for 15 years. Gilbert and Ratelle grew up together in Montreal, played schoolboy hockey together, were scouted and turned pro together by the Rangers and reached the NHL togtther. Both have had back trouble Gilbert since 1960 and Ratelle more recently.

Last February, Dr. Yanag- isawa performed the intricate spinal fusion on Gilbert and in June, Ratelle went under his knife for the same operation. Now they are back together again, and Thursday night they made life miserable for Detroit goalie Roger Crozier. The two-goal game was the fifth Gilbert has had this season. He also turned in the first hat trick of his career in the second game of the season.

"That was the big one for me," he said. "We were losing 4-1 and my three goals helped us get a 4-4 tie that night. After that, I knew the back would hold up and I'd be all right." Dr. Yanagisawa puffed contentedly on his cigar as he walked out of Madison Square Garden. It was almost as if he knew it all the time.

Georgia, SMU Evenly Matched DALLAS, Tex. (AP) The 31st Cotton Bowl meeting Saturday between Georgia and Southern Methodist two teams with many similarities could be as dull as a chess match or as exciting as a space shot. "Both depend on quickness and speed, have big play men in Jerry Levias and Kent Lawrence, have spring-out quarterbacks and have had to come from behind in many games," said Coach Hayden Fry of Southern Methodist. "It will be a head-knocking kind of game," added Georgia Coach Vince Dooley at a news conference Thursday. "I think it will be a very evenly matched football game." Levias is the sophomore Negro and who was the difference in six of Southern Methodist's eight victories this season as the Mustangs won their first Southwest Conference title since 1948.

Lawrence, the sophomore tailback, is an exciting breakaway runner. He has returned 27 punts and kickoffs 534 yards, including 87 and 70 yards for touchdowns. Fourth-ranked Georgia is a seven-point favorite over 10th- ranked SMU before 1 the sell-out crowd of 75,504. The Saturday forecast was for cold weather with temperatures in the 40s and the possibility of ram. Michigan '6' Colgate TROY, N.Y.

Undefeated Michigan drubbed Colgate 9-1 and host Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute routed New Brunswick 5-2 Thursday night in the second round of the round- robin RPI hockey tournament. The Wolverines were led in scoring by Bruce Koviak and Mike Marttila, each with two goals. Five other players joined in the scoring to give Michigsui its 10th victory without a loss. Colgate is 3-4 for the season. The final round tonight matches Michigan and RPI, Colgate and New Brunswick.

30, PAGf IT MSU Football Fortunes Top Sports Stories By WHITEY SAWYER Associated Press Sports Writer Michigan State's football fortunes dominated the Top Ten sports stories of 1966 as selected by Associated Press newspaper and broadcast members across the state. MSU's tie with Notre Dame in the "Poll Bowl" was judged the top sports story of the year. Second was the Spartan loss in the Rose Bowl to open 1966. Fifth was MSU's second straight Big Ten football championship. The death of Detroit Tiger Manager Charlie Dressen was third.

The Detroit Lions grabbed fourth and seventh spots. The Lions' troubles with losses, Joe Don Looney refusing to play, players sounding off and Coach Harry Gilmer under fire was picked as the fourth best sports story of 1966. The Lions' midseason resurgence on the arm of rookie quarterback Karl Swetan, the pass-catching of Pat Studstill and the field goal kicking of Garo Yepremian was judged seventh. The sixth-ranking story of the year was Michigan's dominance of Big Ten basketball for the third season in a row. Eighth was the death of Tiger interim manager Bob Swift of cancer.

Ninth was Chuck Thompson's death In an unlimited hydroplane crash on the Detroit River during the Gold Cup race. Tenth was the appointment of Mayo Smith as the new Detroit Tiger manager. Nebraska Out For Revenge NEW ORLEANS "We believe we can beat that's why we wanted the game so badly," a member of Nebraska's football board of strategy said today and the sentiment was echoed by the revenge-bent Cornhusker squad. "We have to control the ball and we can't make too many mistakes, but we're confident we can do it," added Carl Selmer, offensive line coach of the Big Eight champions who meet the unbeaten untied Crimson Tide in the 33rd Sugar game Monday. "These kids are as fired up and intent as any team I've ever seen.

We've put them through soma hard work and they haven't griped a bit. "Whatever Coach Bob Devaney needs to do to win this game, they're ready to go with him all the way." Alabama, third-ranked nationally and with the only major perfect record in the- country, rules a to 9Ms favorite over the massive, hard-running Midwesterners who sweet to nine straight victories before losing 10-9 to Oklahoma in the last game of the season. The 116 wins amassed by the 1906 Chicago Cubs still stands as the-major league record for most victories in one season. GGC Samsons Are Not Down After Loss in Tournament Although they lost their opening game to the eventual champion, Wahpeton, N. College, the Gogebic Community College Samsons returned home from the Willmar invitational tournament yesterday afternoon in a happy frame of mind, according to Coach Harold Palmer.

Palmer said, "Wahpeton really whopped us around the backboards. They were tremendous, physically, headed by big Joe Schmiesing, 6-4 and 230, who this year was an all-American junior college football selection. They were big all the way down their bench, too." "We were wondering about ourselves, a little, after being manhandled so badly by Wah- Vaulter Breaks Indoor Record SASKATOON, Sas. (AP) Bob Seagren of Los Angeles expressed both joy and disappointment moments after he had established an indoor pole vault record. He cleared 17 feet, 1 inch on Thursday night at the Knights of Columbus Jubilee Games, then immediately looked ahead to 18 feet.

"I did an unofficial 17-4 last week in Mobile, he said. "I'm a little disappointed. I felt I could hit 17-7 here." Seagren erased his own mark by three-quarters of an inch on his first try at that height. He then missed on three attempts to clear 17-7 and surpass the pending world mark of held by John Pennell of Miami. Seagren, 21, now has cleared 17 feet or better on more than 10 official occasions.

Within minutes of his record performance, he predicted that 18 feet is within his capabilities this season. "I think it should be easier to vault indoors," said the six-foot freshman at the University of Southern Cab'fornia. "The boards are fast and conditions are constant." Soccer Loop Names Chief HOUSTON (AP) Dick Walsh, the commissioner of the new North American Soccer League, says he will have to learn details of the sport along with millions of other Americans. Walsh, a vice president of the Los Angeles Dodger Baseball Club the past six years, signed a five-year contract Thursday as the first commissioner of the 12- city league that is to launch its inaugural regular season next May 28. Franchise owners completed a three day organizational meeting Thursday.

Charter members of the league are Boston, New York, Washington, Toronto, Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Vancouver, B.C. George Blanda, quarterback for the Houston Oilers, missed only four extra points in six years of American Football League action. peton, but Willmar is one of the big teams in Minnesota Junior College circles, just as bulky as is Wahpeton, but the North Dakota club beat Willmar around the boards, too, to take the title in champhionship style," the Samsons' coach added. Ashked how badly he had missed his two absent stars, Ron Horning and Roger Koski, Palmer answered, "They probably would have helped our shooting percentage and made our press work more effectively, but I am happy that the other players got more action under real game conditions. We found out that some of them can produce, too.

For instance, Mike Adriansen, 6-2 of Stambaugh gave us some good rebounding. He has been out with a back injury, but he came through for us." Palmer said that Jim Lumsden hit his two winning shots in overtime from the side and from the top of the freethrow circle to clinch the third place victory over Estherville. "He just had the best shots available, so he took them and they swished," said Palmer. The Gogebic coach stated that he will start preparations on Tuesday for the trip to Itasca and Thief River Falls Jan. 6 and 7, when the Samsons will resume Northern Minnesota Junior College Conference play.

Cq All-America Backs to Face Huge Linemen By JACK STKVENSON Associated Press Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO (AP) A half-ton of braking power aims to bring All-America backs to a quick halt Saturday in the 42nd annual Shrine East-West football game. The East backfield boasts two who won -A honors for 1966 Nick Eddy of Notre and Clint Jones of Michigan State. Mel Farr of UCLA was the third running back in the All- America backfield this year, and he is on the West squad. Meeting them head on will be hefty linemen.

The five for the East average 243 pounds and total 1,213, actually more than a half ton. The West ends, tackles and middle guard average 233 and aggregate 1,164. With those behemoths ready to charge, it could be that both coaches John Ralston of the West and Duffy Daugerty of the East will use strategy aimed at going over them via the air. Defensively, the forward group for the East opens with 238-pound Alan Page of Notre Dame and Don Parker, 240, of Virginia at ends; Tom Fussell 230, Louisiana State, and Bob Rowc, 245, Western Michigan, at tackles, and Dave Rowe, 260, Penn State, at middle guard. If the West runners penetrate this group, they come up against linebackers Jim Lynch of Notre Dame, a 230-pounder, and Stan Juk of South Carolina at 210.

Lynch and Jones were elected co-captains for the game starting at 4:45 EST, with national television (NBC). Western front liners are Tom Greenlee. 195, Washington, and Lloyd Phipps, 230, of Arkansas at ends; Leo Carroll 255, San Diego State, and Dennis Randall, 230. Oklahoma, at tackles, and John Richardson, 254, UCLA middle guard. Linebackers are George Harvey, 240, ol Kansas, and Ron McCall, 235, ol Utah's Weber College.

Ralston has three passers San Diego State's Don Horn, Dave Lewis of Stanford and Tim VanGalder of Iowa Stale. The latter, however, has been hampered by injuries. North Carolina's Danny Talbott and Benny Russell of Louisville do the throwing for the East, which hasn't won thi game since 1962 when Notre Dame's Daryl Lamonica engi neered the triumph. USED CARS and TRUCKS Week's Spedall '49 CHEVROLET TON PICKUP Michigan lops Badgers 98-1 LOS ANGELES (AP)-Michi gan consoled its followers with a 98-88 basketball victory over Big Ten rival Wisconsin Thursday night in the consolatioi round of the Los Angeles Clas sic.

The Wolverines met Arkansas, fresh from a 65-61 triumph over Arizona, in the final round today. In other games, tourney-favorite UCLA overpowered Georgia Tech 91-72. The victory moved the Bruins into tonight's championship game with Southern California which edged Illinois 73-72.
