ROCKLAND'S 1 TEEN Summer or neo wro AGE Program For 75 NEW YORK (AP) Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, winner of the National Basketball Association's Most Valuable Player Award three times in his first five pro seasons, has asked to be traded by the Milwaukee Bucks, it was reported Thursday night by sportscaster Marv Albert of WNBC-TV in New York.

"I've learned that Kareem Abdul-Jab-bar has asked out of his contract with the Milwaukee Bucks," Albert said. "He says he will play only in New York or Los Angeles. Kareem still has one year left, plus an option year on his $1 million package. He is hoping his obvious dissatisfaction in Milwaukee will force a trade. "He would prefer to come to New York and play for the Knicks, although the Nets of the American Basketball Association would not be out of the question," Albert added.

"But the legal problems in jumping leagues would be a huge hurdle." Albert said the Knicks have not been in contact with Milwaukee or Abdul-Jab-bar "because that would be labeled but it is known in basketball circles that Kareem wants out badly. And would be the one to force the move." The sportscaster also said that the Lakers also would be attractive to the 7-foot-4 Abdul-Jabbar, but there is a possibility that Los Angeles would select 7-0 Marvin Webster of Morgan State, a little All-Amer-ican, in the NBA draft in May. "The Bucks are on the spot because they may be forced to trade him (Abdul-Jabbar), even though he's tied to a contract," continued Albert. "They may be forced because they know an unhappy Kareem won't do them much good, and if they're to make the trade, now would be the time to pick up heavy value." Abdul-Jabbar first joined the Bucks for the 1969-70 season, signing a lucrative contract, after a brilliant collegiate career at UCLA. Three years later, he signed a new four-year contract which provided a fifth year at the club's option.

The contract extends through the 1976-77 season. AP photo Kareem Abdul-Jabbar AP photo Portland's Sidney Wicks (right) scores two points over Knicks' Harthorne Wingo. Knicks burn Blazers (Continued from 9H) It was a reminder of things past, when a Dave De-Busschere or a Phil Jackson would come off the bench to bring the Knicks back in a frenzied rally. It resulted in the Knicks third straight win as they head for a four-game Western swing, starting tonight against the Houston Rockets. The Knicks win, however, coupled with the Cleveland Cavalier's win over the Los Angeles Lakers, still leaves the Knicks a half game away from the coveted fifth playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

But as Bradley said: "It was a tough, aggressive defensive game, but it's just something that has to done. We're not out of the woods yet." Upon hearing of Albert's report, Bucks' President William Alverson, contacted in Milwaukee, said, "no comment." In Atlanta, where Abdul-Jabbar's 41 points led the Bucks to a 120-104 victory over the Hawks Thursday night, Milwaukee coach Larry Costello said, "It is a surprise to me. I didn't know he was unhappy. You sure couldn't tell it by his play tonight, could you? "I don't know what to say. I'm puzzled by the report.

I wouldn't know what if it were true. He (Kareem) has said nothing to me about it." Abdul-Jabbar was unavailable for Y.M.C.A.

The massive Milwaukee center, who had unhesitatingly blasted the officiating after fouling out in the Bucks' previous National Basketball Association game, lashed out at the Hawks with 41 points Thursday night in a 120-104 rout over Atlanta. "Things went all right this time," said Abdul-Jabbar in reference to the ref-ereeing. "I have no further comment. Once is enough." The victory lifted Milwau-' kee within one-half game of idle Detroit in the fight for the "wild card" playoff berth in the Western Conference.

Only one-half game also separates Cleveland and New York, the teams battling for the "wild card" playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Cleveland maintained the slim advantage, trouncing the Los Angeles Lakers 104-85, while the Knicks beat the Portland Trail Blazers 116-103. In the other NBA game, the Buffalo Braves riddled the Golden State Warriors 122-103. Atlanta Coach Cotton Fitzsimmons said, "we weren't that bad, they were just that good. The big guy (Abdul-Jabbar) was awesome." Milwaukee broke open the game in the third period, outscoring the Hawks 38-25 for a 100-80 advantage after leading only 62-55 at half-time.

Rookie Mike Sojourner topped Atlanta with 23 points. Cavs 1 04, Lakers 85 Fred Foster's 20 points and Bobby Smith's 18 paced a balanced Cleveland offense that carried the Cavaliers past Los Angeles, the team with the worst record in the Western Conference. A 19-2 spurt during a six-minute span of the second period, which boosted the Cavs from a 33-32 deficit into a 51-35 lead, was decisive. Campy Russell's eight points and Austin Carr's five sparked the spree. Cazzie Russell topped the Lakers with 23 points.

Braves 122, Warriors 103 Buffalo's Bob McAdoo, the league's leading scorer, broke looe for 39 points, including 27 in the second half, and grabbed 24 rebounds in propelling the Braves to a record 43rd victory of the season. McAdoo led Buffalo to a 41-point fourth period which erased an 83-81 Golden State lead after three periods. The Warriors' Rick Barry, second to McAdoo in the scoring race, led Golden State with 29 points. Hardwick paces 24 contenders ST. LOUIS (AP) Billy Hardwick, the Louisville veteran who hasn't won since late in 1969, leads a field of 24 professional bowlers into the semifinals today in a a $75,000 Pro Bowling Association Open Tournament.

Hardwick averaged 235 per game Thursday to take over first place at the 26-game mark. Hardwick, 33, who holds 16 career titles, shot games of 220, 225, 289, 248, 208 and 241 in the afternoon set. Then, when match play got underway, he took four tilts, tied another and increased his 26-pin lead by 29. In the headto-head segment, he shot 265, 246, 223, 228, 227, 257, 211 and 206. With 30 bonus pins added in for each triumph 15 for the tie Hardwick shows 6,163 while runner-up Dave Davis of Atlanta, who won seven of eight and gathered 78 pins less than the leader, has 6.134.

Davis, a 12-time winner on the tour, had an opening game 290 to beat Hard-wick's 265. In third place, 54 pins back, Bobby Jacks of New Orleans shot down 1,810 pins while dropping three of eight games. Jacks goes into today concluding two eight-game blocks with a healthy 79-pin advantage over Johnny Petraglia of New York, who fell a notch when he rolled a 1,727 series enrouje to a 5-3 mark. 25 ACRE PRIVATE CAMP SITE FABULOUS CONCRETE POOL RED CROSS INSTRUCflON ATHLETICS SPECIAL EVENTS THEATER CRAFT NATURE OVERNIGHTS TENNIS ARTS CRAFTS CERAMICS HORSEMANSHIP Cl.T.

Chenier needs only a little more maturity to become the NBA's premier guard, many observers feel. When Unseld plays the high post, Hayes goes in the low post, with his virtually unstoppable turnaround jumper.

"He does it all," New York guard Walt Frazier says of the 6-9 Hayes. "He scores, he rebounds, and he kills you on defense, slopping teams from passing the ball inside." He is in the top 10 in four NBA categories scoring, rebounding, blocked shots, and steals. The other forward is 6-4 scrapper Mike Riordan, who can shoot from the outside and contributes penetration, excellent defense, and is a leader with Porter in the fast break. Washington has the best substitute guards in the NBA in Clem Raskins and veteran ABA All-Star Jimmy Jones, in his first year with the Bullets. The weaknesses? Probably the possibility of injury to Unseld's suspect knees, a problem in the past, and the inexperience of backup forwards Tom Kozelko and Nick Weatherspoon.

Buffalo has a shot at disrupting a Washington-Boston final in the East. The Braves' big problem has been injuries with guard Ernie DiGregorio and forwards Gar Heard and Jim McMillian cut sizeable amounts of the season. Buffalo does not play good defense, which has hurt, and the rebounding is only so-so, with Heard the main threat underneath. Bob McAdoo, is the big asset, with his NBA-leading scoring the Braves" main hope. The development of guard Randy Smith has helped Buffalo, which is basically the same team as last year which forced the Celtics to six games in the semifinals.

It appears Boston and Washington have improved much more. Houston is the best of the rest, with three genuine i-tars in guard Calvin Murphy and forwards Rudy Tom-janovich and Mike Newlin. The Rockets are center. Geveland is a possibility, though injuries to star guard Austin Carr and rejuvenated center Jim Chones have slowed the Cavaliers. New York has strong guard play in Walt Frazier and Earl Monroe, but the Knicks are hurting up front.

Nyack YMCA Baseball Allen deal flops CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) The Philadelphia Phillies' second romance with Dick Allen is over. It really was only a passing fancy. The Phillies and Atlanta Braves ended discussions Thursday that reportedly were lead ing toward bringing the slugging veteran to Philadelphia for a second time. Phils' General Manager Paul Owens engaged for the last fo'ur days in almost constant negotiations with Atlanta GM Eddie Robinson seemed relieved that the Allen affair was settled.

"In fairness to our club, we just couldn't carry this thing on," he said. "W'e had explored every thing we could and we didn't want our club upset." Allen, who spent more than six seasons in Philadelphia at the beginning of his 12-year major league career, had emphasized that he did not want to play in Atlanta after leaving the Chicago White Sox late in the 1974 season. But he hinted he wouldn't mind playing this year in New York or Philadelphia. The two New York teams the Mets and Yankees didn't express interest, but Owens certainly was interested. First baseman Willie Montanez took the word calmly.

"I would have played the outfield if he came, so I stay at first base," he said. YOUTH BASKETBALL Ramapo Basketball Ass'n.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) The hitters finally took charge of the mini -series between the New York Yankees and New York Mets. And it was about time, too. After exchanging shutouts in the first two games, the intercity rivals went wild with 13 runs Thursday and the Yankees emerged' with a 7-6 victory in the rubber game for the "championship of New York." Fred Stanley drilled two singles and sacrifice fly and knocked in two runs, including the game-winner in the eighth inning. Stanley singled in the Yankees' two-run third in-rung which was touched off by Rick Domnsev's home run.

Then the Mets rocked Pat Dobson for five runs in the fourth, two of them scoring on a single by Gene Clines. Dobson gave up four walks and three hits in the big inning. With Doc yedich going Reserve Space In The Bicentennial Edition April 15th. 1975 Call Joe Marinello (914)358-220, i i Vi.V.
