Bill Margolis, a member of the Globetrotter board of directors which has run the team since the death of founder Abe Saperstein, said a published report that the Trotters made the offer to Alcindor providing that he quit school "had to be wrong." Alcindor is a sophomore at UCLA. "As I understand it," Margolis said, "Jerry Saperstein (coach of the Trotters and son of Abe) said in chatting about Alcindor that he would be worth a million dollars and that the Trotters would bid as high as anyone else when Alcindor was out of school." "The Trotters have never tampered with a college player," Margolis said. "We start our bidding when he's free." Alcindor said today in Los Angeles, "Right now I'm interested in my education. But it's possible something might come up in the future." Sophomore Bob Arnzen scored 37 points as Notre Dame jumped to a 44-26 halftime lead and easily crushed Houston. Alan Schug's free throw with 28 seconds left gave Niagara its victory over Providence, and Fordham hit on 35 of 38 three throws to dump Boston College.

Missouri continued a vi trouble with Big Eight opponents. Colorado handed the Tigers their seventh loss in eight conference starts, 79-75, in overtime. Lynn Baker's two consecutive layups gave the Buffaloes a 73-71 lead in the extra session and they maintained their advantage. workers recommended him for the Birds.

Papanicalaou. a student at San Jose, was prohibited by the AAU from competing in the Los Angeles Times indoor track and field meet Saturday because he competed in a "non-sanctioned" meet in New York the night 'before. The New York meet was sponsored by the National dropped a 77-76 verdict to Niagara.

The rated teams besides UCLA, Louisville and Princeton in the winning column were seventh-ranked Kansas, a 60-55 victor over Kansas State, eighth ranked Western Kentucky, a 65-56 conqueror of East Tennessee and tenth ranked Vanderbilt, which beat Mississippi, 72-67. UCLA (19-0) made it look easy against Oregon, jumping to a 9-1 lead and building it to 49-32 at halftime. Lew Alcindor scored just 16 points but Lucius Allen netted 20, Mike Warren 17, Lynn Shackelford 12 and Ken Heitz 10 as all five starters hit in double figures. Georgia Tech's Pete Thorne hit two free throws with a second left to beat North Carolina, which had trailed by 15 midway in the second half but had tied the game at 80-80 with 20 seconds to play. Fred Holden scored 23 points, next month but it will be difficult to determine the supporting roles.

With the date of the first round games of the tourney-March 11 less than a month away, the unbeaten, top-ranked UCLA Bruins remain the odds-on-favorite for all the honors as they continue their Cakewalk to a perfect season. But the teams below the Bruins in the United Press International Top 10 continue to stumble along and fall flat. The same story continued Saturday as UCLA clobbered Oregon, 100-66, while four other teams in the Top 10, second-ranked North Carolina, fifth-ranked Houston, sixth-ranked Texas Western and ninth-ranked Providence were upset. Fourth-ranked Princeton managed to survive against an Ivy League opponent by slipping past Brown, 57-54.

Washington county Sheriff Steven J.

Richards told the Post-Dispatch that Thomas J. Hayes, 59 years old, and his wife, Dorothy May, 39, were found shot to death behind the bar of the Club 8, a tavern they owned on Missouri Highway 8, between i and Leadwood. Richards said that the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Hayes were found about 8 p.m.

by a customer. The cash register had been emptied. Both victims had been shot in the head. The sheriff said it appeared that the killer forced Mr. and Mrs.

Hayes to lie on the floor behind the bar before shooting them. Richards said that the killer got about $50 from the cash register. Troopers of the Missouri Highway Patrol and sheriff's deputies from Washington, Jefferson and St. Francois counties set up roadblocks around the area, about 75 miles south of St. Louis.

Officers were looking for a man 25 to 30 years old, and driving a black sedan. Tavern customers said they had seen the man around the place yesterday. Officers believe that Mr. and Mrs. Hayes were killed between 7:30 and 7:45 p.m.

Washington county Coroner Clifford Gibbons said there would be an autopsy today. Richards said that Mr. and Mrs. Hayes took over operation of the Club 8 last month. After ly impressive Saturday was whipped by Notre Dame, 87-78; Vikings Begin Hunt For Coach MINNEAPOLIS, Feb.

13 (AP) The Minnesota Viking stunned by the double-barreled loss of head coach Norm Van Brocklin and No. 1 quarterback Fran Tarkenton, were starting from scratch today in the search for a new coach. "This is a real blow," said Jim Finks, general manager of Maxvill started in Granite City Khoury ball at the age of 12 with the Salvation Army Atomic Kids team. "I started as a pitcher because I was the only one who could throw a curve," Dal said. "Why did they move me to shortstop? They found out I could hit." Slugger Maxvill tied a major league home run record in '66.

He went through the entire season without hitting one.

"But the AAU took it upon 'itself to rule that there would be reprisals if any athletes competed in New York." "What are they trying to do?" Winter asked. "This boy is a legitimate student at San Jose State. Whats so wrong in his wanting to represent his school? Is it because he is a Greek national?" Tommie Smith and Lee Evans, Papamcalaous's teammates at San Jose, competed in the New York meet and no ban was place on them at L.A.

Jim Hall to Speak the Vikings there's no reason to try to fool anybody." Van Brocklin, the only coach the Vikings have had in their six years in the NFL, resigned Saturday, a day after Tarkenton had said he would quit pro football if he was not traded by the Vikings. The decisions by the player and coach to quit the Vikings were said to have been the result of personal differences between Van Brocklin and Tarkenton. Dick Cullum, sports columnist for the Minneapolis Trubune, quoted Van Brocklin as saying: "Tarkenton talked to players about his situation. This split the squad. If either of us had quit and the other had returned, the squad would have continued to be split." Tarkenton said at his home in Atlanta that he was shocked by Van Brocklin's resignation, but said it would have no bearing on his demand to be traded.

"I have never said anything derogatory about Van Brocklin, and I won't now," Tarkenton said. plus in the United States, brigades and battalions. Farmer B.R. Had Bumper Crops By Red Smith NEW YORK. Feb.

Kromm will have to do a lot of thinking before again alternating the lanky 25-year-old Dryden with rookie Bob Sneddon when Sneddon rejoins the Braves from the Chicago Black Hawks sometime later this week. "Dave's been playing just great since Sneddon left," Kromm said yesterday.

"His average has dropped from 3.90 goals a game to 3.25 in the past week. But those games all have been at home. I'll have to wait and see what happens on the road. "With the tough schedule that we have ahead of us, it doesn't hurt to have a couple of goalies of Dryden's and Sneddon's abilities around."

It would be unfair to characterize this as entirely Views of Sport Horse Racing NBA Boxes But of these units, few except the Eighty-second Airborne Division are ready for service. IF THE TROOP levels in Vietnam are increased next year beyond the 470,000 figure, most officers believe that increased draft calls plus enlistments will not be able to meet the needs.

The great turnover, and the need to create new units for Vietnam reinforcement or to replace units of the strategic reserve in this country would impose too great a load on the training establishment and would water down the experience level too greatly, it is thought. Some officers in the Pentagonparticularly at lower levelswelcome for these reasons Congressional pressure to reduce troop strength in Europe. Pentagon officials deny that there is any present plan to bring back two divisions from Europe, but they say that some of the U.S. troops being moved out of France will be returned to the United States and that some additional cuts in logistical units in Germany may be made. Inaccurate, because it is true that Rickey did create a large and successful farm system for the Cardinals.

If it was infamous, it was a brand of infamy eagerly embraced by the Yankees, the Dodgers, and, indeed, every other team in the major leagues.

Farms cultivated by Rickey and later hoed by Walter O'Malley made the Dodgers predominant in the National League. No team in the majors today attempts to operate without a minor league chain. Only one other statement in the sentence quoted above is contrary to fact, but then it isn't a very long sentence. Judge Landis did not break up Rickey's chain gang. The Cardinals still operate a nationwide network, with clubs in six leagues from the Florida Rookie League to the Pacific Coast.

Landis Lowered Boom It is true that Landis disapproved of a system that enabled i one club to control hundreds of players and he tried repeatedly but unsuccessfully to thwart Rickey. In 1938 he declared 74 St. Louis farmhands free agents on the ground that "overlapping control" may have retarded their advancement. I The only one Rickey minded losing was Pete Reiser, a shortstop in Superior. who three years later won the National League batting championship for Brooklyn.

The farm system not only survived; it was copied everywhere, and in 1940 the Tigers won the American League pennant after Landis had cut loose 91 players owned by Detroit. Actually, what Rickey did was perfect the farm system, not originate the idea. While he was still a sore-armed catcher, owners were circumventing a "no-farming" rule through "gentlemen's agreements." They would help stock a minor league team with the unwritten understanding that at some later date they would have first call on that team's best players. By this means, Brooklyn controlled 61 players in 1910 and Cleveland topped the American League with 60. Poverty Was Spur In 1912, when Rickey was baseball coach at Michigan, Robert Lee Hedges, owner of the Browns, told him he was prepared to buy the Kansas City club of the American Association if Branch would run it.

Rickey hesitated because he and two fraternity brothers had a law office in Boise, Idaho, but when Hedges came back with an offer to bring him into St. Louis as vice president and secretary of the Browns, Branch accepted. That was in 1913 and one of Rickey's first moves was to promise four merchants in Montgomery, $12,500 to help buy the team in their city. The Browns would furnish all the players free under a working agreement giving St. Louis its pick of the talent at $1C00 a man after the season.

The deal fell through, and it wasn't until 1920 when he was running the Cardinals that Rickey got his farm system started. When he did, poverty was the spur. In 1919 the Cardinals couldn't go South for spring training; they worked out at Washington University in St. Louis, wearing odds and ends because last year's uniforms had been laundered, patched, and stored for opening day. To get players cheap, Rickey originated the idea of running tryout camps for free agents.

At one of these he spotted a high school pitcher from Mt. Vernon, 111. The kid couldn't pitch much but he could run a hole in the wind. His name was Ray Blades, and he played in the Cardinals' outfield for 10 years and later was their manager. Another picked up the same way was Clarence Mueller, an outfielder who would reach a batting peak of .352 in the big leagues.

A letter of application from Nokomis, 111., laboriously scrawled in pencil, turned up Jim Bottomley, the great first baseman. Later, Pepper Martin rode the rods to a tryout camp in Greenville, Tex. The Face of Baseball Those players came free. The club's biggest cash deal in those days was a $10,000 transaction with Kansas City for Jesse Haines, and the Cardinals had to borrow the money. Pop Haines, a gifted knuckleball pitcher who lasted 18 years, was the last player purchased by the Cardinals for more than a quarter century.

To grow 'em because he couldn't afford to buy 'em, Rickey bought a half-interest in Fort Smith, a Class club in the Western Association. Similar arrangements were made with Houston and Syracuse. By 1928, when the Cardinals won their second pennant in three years, they had farms in seven cities; no other team had more than two farms, and many had none. In spite of Landis, Rickey changed the face of baseball with his farm system, but that is only one of manv reasons While America is negotiating asJSSr? aSST with Russia to limit both defen Move to Lehigh BETHLEHEM, Feb. 13 (UPI) The1 appointments of McConologue, former Lafayette College head football coach, at Carlisle, high school as assistant football coaches at Lehigh University were announced today by athletic director Bill Leckonby.

Pope, a college student and athlete, killed three persons and wounded a fourth in a robbery of Farmer's State Bank in Big Springs, on June 4, 1965. Pope was convicted in United States District Court at Lincoln, in November 1965. The seven-judge appellate court here sat en banc when the case was heard last fall. The opinion today was written by Judge Harry Blackmun. It held that Pope had received a fair trial, that it was free of error and that the judge's instructions to the jury were proper.

The defense had alleged seven errors in the Lincoln trial.
