Poky Shooters Can't Find Rim BY ROB ZAIESKI Jojrnol Sports Wiirer The blue hand plunged to minus 15 degrees at (he First Security Bank Friday night, but just two blocks north, in the Pocatello High gymnasium, it was at least 10 degrees colder. WeU, Hie shooters were anyway.

As a result, Idaho Falls and Pocatello combined for a mere 80 points in their SouUiern Idaho Conference basketball opener. And since the Tigers got 42 of those-compared to Pocatello's 38-- Coacli Jim Challerton wore a dazed look as he struggled for an explanation in the Indian dressing room. "I don't know what said. "1 really don't. We got the shots all right.

And good ones, too. The ball just wouldn't fall. I mean, we must have had 60 or 70 sluts." What hurt most was a nightmarish fourth quarter. Pocatello actually led 34 32, as the quarter began, but loandbeliold, got only rwo more baskets, a 2- footer by forward Bill Winn and a 10-footer by guard Bob Slier. wood with 36 seconds left.

Meanwhile, Idaho Falls- frigid itself for most of the night- came alive in the closing min. uies. Five straight points, four of them by totdog guard Dale Baldwin, settled the outcome early in the quarter, although the scrappy Indians held on to the end. Thai, perhaps, was hardest to digest. Outside of the empty ar.

lillery, Pocatello played a good game. Good enough to win, in. stead, it woundupwith its second defeat overall in three games. Idalio Falls, on the other hand, edged over .500 to 8.1. "Yeah, outside of our shoot- ing, I thought we played well," said Chatterton, snuffing out a cigarette.

"I can't explain it. It's just one of those things."

I Vandals Are Rebuffed Again BOISE, Idaho (AP) A second attempt by the University of Idaho to get out of the Big Sky Athletic Conference has failed. A report by the Lewiston Morning Tribune said the university had enough votes to approve its request Friday but that the issue did not reach the voting stage. Dr. J. P.

Munson, a board member from Sandpoint, rec- ommended instead that the office of higher education conduct a study of athletic spending at the state's three major schools. Three members of the board voted in October to permit Idaho to pull out of the conference and the Tribune said lobbying by the vandals had persuaded Kenneth Thatcher, Idaho Falls, to join them in casting affirmative votes. His vote would have tipped the balance In favor of the vandals' request, Idaho officials say they need more than 62 full-time scholarships to contend with the school's football schedule for the next two years. A move by Idaho to gain a relaxation of the scholarship limitations failed when the Big Sky presidents met in Boise last month. following the first heal.

liosi Mittermaier of West Germany, who was in third place, fell just before the finish line on her second run. Marie Thercse Nadig, the Swiss girl who won two gold medals in the 1912 Winter Olympics al Sapporo, Japan, placed 25th. The United States' best slalo- mer, Barbara Cochran of Richmond, VI, a gold medalist at Sapporo, was at home practicing before joining the circuit next month. The best American effort was the 21th place of Susan Patterson, a 16-year-old from Sun Valley, Idaho, whose lime was 53.18. Cindy Nelson ot Lutsen, Minn, 11, was 29th fa 04.04.

"1 skied poorly," she said, Neither Suan Corrock ot Ketchum, Idaho nor Martha Coughlin of Swampscott, Mass, the other American entries, made it through bolh heats.
