January 5, 1964 THE SUNDAY STAR-BULLETIN regis FIVE READY le Golfers In FOR JAUNT Cal Tourney Stickout Performances Of 1963 By MONTE HO Looking back over the sports events I covered during 1963, four performances stick in my memory over oth-crs. First to come to mind is Ron VanderKelen's remark able passing feat in the Hula Bowl game last January. He completed 20 out of 33 passes for 253 yards in a 20-13 victory for the North over the South. He passed to Hugh Campbell for the touchdown that tied it up at 13-13 after starting to roll out. Next is Paul SnoriplW nn nn uled for Jan.

16 through Jan. 19. SCODELLER AND Jimmy Ukauka, Kaneohe Bay-View Center pro, have qualified locally for the Lucky tournament and Makalena will attempt to qualify on the Mainland. Spengler is scheduled to leave for the Mainland Jan. 10, Makalena Jan.

11, Afong Jan. 12, Scodeller Jan. 13 and Ukauka Jan. 19. Makalena, who finished third behind Scodeller and Ukauka in the PGA of Ha waii medal championship last month, which qualified two isle pros for the Lucky Lager-sponsored open, said he has two chances to qualify for the $50,000 tourney.

"If I survive the 54-hole cut in the Crosby tournament, I will automatically qualify for the Lucky Open," he stated. "If I fail, then I have to go to San Francisco and play in a qualifying round on Monday, Jan. 20," he added. The Lucky Open is scheduled for Jan. 23, 24, 25 and 26 at the Harding Park mu- nicipal course in San Francisco.

The Crosby Pro-Amateur, an invitational tournament, will be played at Pebble Beach, Cypress Points and Monterey Peninsula golf courses. The field will be cut after 54 holes and the final 18 will be played at Pebble Beach. MAKALENA WILL be playing in the Crosby tournament for the seventh time and went the full 72 holes in 1962. He was in the Lucky Open the past three years and hopes to qualify for a lY n-37th hole of the PGA Medal Play 'V rhamninriRTiin at fahn rmintrv Cliir, Gives Dietzel ntrnc Ito Ukauka dormied the match, 3 up and 3 to go, and appeared to have the title in the bag. But Scodeller won the next three holes to force the match into the 37th and won with a spectacular comeback.

Next to come to mind is the sensational duel between Reid Kimoto of Roosevelt and Charley Wedemeyer of Punahou. Kimoto ran for one touchdown and passed twice to Ronnie Ayau and kicked one extra point to give the Riders a 20-0 lead. After Wedemeyer passed for one TD in the second quarter. Kimoto hit Ayau again to make it 2S-6 at the half. Then in the fourth quarter Wedemeyer ran twice for touchdowns and had the Riders on pins and needles with his passing and running when the game ended with Roosevelt winning 2G-19.

Then there was the State Prep track championship meet at Iolani School when Kimo Warren of Kamehame-ha surprised Myron Staszkow of Kaimuki in the mile and Arnold Galacia of Kaimuki upset Lucian Paulus of Punahou in the 440 to bring a highly successful high school season to a close. These are only four of the many outstanding events cf 1963 that I covered on assignment. There were others covered by fellow staffers. Why Not Day Games? By KENNY HAINA Basketball is now in full swing in the Interscholastic League of Honolulu and one of our wishes for the new year is that the reigning league fathers, and even the ty, N.Y., where he was spending a skiing weekend, expressed pleasure at Army's confidence in him.

5- vl fourth time. Ukauka said he won't have time to play in any other tournament on the Mainland. He has scheduled the official opening of his 18-hole Bay-View Center course for Jan. 17 or 18. He leaves for San Francisco on Jan.

19 and will return immediately after the Lucky Open to prepare for the second annual Red McQueen March of Dimes golf clambake which will be held at his course Feb. 2. Scodeller said he will camp until Feb. 24. Knopp, Kirkpatrick, Simpson, Belinsky played with the Islanders last season.

Urschel in Tulsa tomorrow on details of the car's construction. The Trackburner would be built in Brabham's factory in Chessington, Surrey. It would be powered by a Mayer-Drake Offen-hauser engine. Brabham, 37, won the world's racing crown in 1959 and I960.

He finished ninth in the Indianapolis "500" in 1961. Zink's cars won the Indianapolis Classic in 1955 and 1956. Urschel, a San Antonio, Texas, automobile importer, recently joined Zink in sponsoring the new Trackburner. State Board of Education for that matter, restrict play to daytime hours. The fact that games are scheduled only Friday and Saturday nights this season doesn't make any sense to us.

Through most of the season, there will be five games scheduled each night. With 11 teams this season prospect of a 12th next year, the basketball situation is getting unwieldy. Games will be a bit longer this season because of a new rule which stops PAUL SCODELLER C-5 team up again with Bob Crosby in the Pro-Amateur.

He played the full 72-hole distance last year and missed finishing in the money by one stroke. Scodeller said he plans to return home after the Lucky Open because his wife is expecting a baby in February. Last year he went on to the Palm Springs Open. Three Tied For L.A. Open Lead LOS ANGELES (UPD Youthful Bobby Nichols and Tommy Jacobs, a pair of big money winners last year; and "old man" Jimmy Clark, who barely made enough to keep the wolf from the door, deadlocked yesterday for the second round lead in the Los Angeles Open Golf Tournament.

They each posted 35-hole scores of 137 to take a two-shot lead over another young star. Geiberger. BUT ALL four men have to be looking over their shoulders, because breathing down their necks, only three strokes from the lead are the one and only Arnold Palmer, the defending champion; Don January and Don Fairfield all big-time winners in the past. However, the first round heroes, unknowns Jim Black and Roger Ginsberg, found the high-tension pressure golf starting to tell and they took three-over-par 74s for 141. That tied them with Frank Bearc, Dick Hart and former National Open champion Gene Littler.

Cricket Match Is Scheduled A cricket match will be held at Kapiolani Park Jan. 11 at 1:30 p.m. It will be the Ladies vs. Gentlemen match. The men will play with opposite hand, that is, if he is a right hander he will play with his left and visa versa.

We'd like to ask league fathers and anyone else concerned why these games must be played at night. Also, why is it that junior varsity teams must play the preliminary games? Why can't they play Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mornings as they formerly did? And what's wrong with the varsity boys playing twice during weekday afternoons and maybe a doubleheader or even tripleheader at three of the five gyms on Saturday afternoons? A number of officials close to he prep sports scene are quite miffed over our crusade to have athletics played during daytime hours and on school campuses.

Our explanation is simple. Athletics is a part of a school's physical education program to build sound minds and bodies. As such, we believe it belongs to the students on their campuses during a reasonable hour. We'd like to see the night time hours devoted to academic work. This business of catching up on school work during study hours in class is for the birds, if we may use a vernacular.

Hal Griggs Big Winner By FERD EORSCH When Hal Griggs reached age 35 last August he allowed that maybe the 1963 season would be his finale in the professional ranks. But don't be surprised if the veteran relief pitcher Three Hawaii professional and two amateur golfers will be playing in California tournaments this month. Four of them will be going to the Bing Crosby National Pro-Amateur and two, possibly three, will compete in the $50,000 Lucky Open in San Francisco. Paul Scodeller, Navy-Marine pro, Ala Wai pro Ted Makalena, amateurs Paul Spengler of Waialae Country Gub and Charles Afong of the Chinese Golf Club are participating in the Crosby clambake sched Army By JOHN GRIFFIN WEST POINT, N.Y. (UPI) Army, which fired its last football coach because he didn't beat Navy, yesterday gave coach Paul Dietzel a brand-new long-term contract even though he, too, has failed to beat Navy in two tries.

"I'm very happy with the new contract," said Dietzel, "and I believe the future of Army football is very bright, indeed." DIETZEL STILL had three years to go on his original five-year pact with the U.S. Military Academy. He said the new agreement was for a "longer" term than the original one, which probably would make it the longest contract in Army's gridiron history. Dietzel, the first non-graduate of the Military Academy to coach the team in over 50 years, received $20,000 per year under his original contract. Although salary terms of the new pact were not disclosed, they were believed to call for a token raise as Army's vote-of-confidence in the 39-year-old coach it hired away from Louisiana State in January, 1962.

In line with Army custom, there was no formal ceremony announcing Dietzel's new contract. But when word leaked out, it was confirmed at the Academy by Col. Ray Murphy, director of athletics. Dietzel. reached at Liber Soviet Swim To Study U.S.

Methods NEW YORK (UPI) Three top-ranking Soviet gov ernment swimming omciais and a woman research woSfc-er arrived yesterday from Moscow to observe American training methods during a one-month tour. The visit was arranged by the U.S. Amateur Athletic Union and the U.S. State Department and marks the first time that such a Soviet swimming delegation has visited here, Harry Hains-worth, AAU administrative assistant, said. THE GROUP includes Nikolai Krjukov, secretary general of the Soviet Swimming Federation, and Kirill In-jasevsky and Iuri Chuksin, senior coach and coach, respectively, of the Soviet national swimming team.

The woman is Miss Maina Nabatnikova, who will survey training methods, particularly those used for children. Krjukov said that the visit involved the Soviet Union's preparations for the 1964 Olympic Games but was more concerned with "getting acquainted with the training methods here." "American swimmers are among the best in the world," Krjukov said. Speaking through an interpreter who accompanied the group, Krjukov said the Russians also are observing the construction of American swimming pools, organization of swimming as a sport and the various strokes and techniques used in distances up through 1500 meters. Krjukov predicted that the 1964 Soviet team will "undoubtedly" be an improvement over the 1960 team. ROOKIE ROSTER The Cleveland Browns played 13 rookies in 1960.

(UPI) Australian Jack Brabham, twice world's racing champion, will build and drive the John Zink-Urschel Trackburner in the 1964 Memorial Day 500-mile race in Indianapolis, Zink announced today. BRABHAM, en route from his London home to Australia, is scheduled to confer Jose Torres Offered Bout With Carter NEW YORK (UPI) Un-ranked Jose Torres yesterday was offered a fight with top middleweight contender Rubin (Hurricane) Carter at Madison Square Garden, Jan. 31, because of Jose's unanimous victory in his first Garden and television appearance.

At the close of the hard-fought 10-rounder between the two Puerto Rico-born New Yorkers, the three ring officials favored 27-year-old Torres, 6-3-1, 6-4, 64, apparently because he had landed the harder punches at long range. Torres, weighing 161 to Gonzalez's 160, a last-minute betting favorite at 6-5. Rod Laver Wins Aussie Pro Title PERTH, Australia (UPI) Rod Laver won the inaugural Australian professional title yesterday with a 7-5, 3-6, 6-0 victory over Lew Hoad. In earlier matches, Hoad beat Frank Sedgman, 9-7, 6-1, and Laver beat Ken Rosewall, 6-2, 6-1. The easiness of Laver's win over Rosewall suggests the red-haired Queenslander is now ready to take over Rosewall's mantle as the world's top tennis player.

Prior to his switch to the professional ranks last year, Laver was the undisputed amateur king, completing the grandslam of Australian, French, Wimbledon and United States tittles in 1962. Baseball Clinic At Hickam AFB Two well known collegiate baseball coaches will conduct a clinic at Hickam Air Force Base's Flyer Stadium Jan. 13-16.

Another such season would be most welcome to manager Bob Lemon. Two Islanders of the recent past pitcher Aubrey Gatewood and outfielder Dick Simpson were mentioned last week as possible rookie-of-the-year candidates by the Los Angeles Angels. According to the report out of the Angel front office, general manager Fred Haney is very high on the abilities of these two players, although their recent records aren't too impressive. Simpson, a 20-year-old prospect, was plagued by injuries most of last season and managed only a .232 average in 90 games for Hawaii. However, he has both the power and the speed to make it in the majors.

Gatewood, continually hindered by arm trouble, was very impressive in a late season showing for the Angels last September and his rightpaw slants could keep him on the big roster this spring. Both Simpson and Gatewood will receive long and thorough looks from field boss Bill Rigney at Palm Springs because the Angels need more power at the plate and more strong-armed pitchers. LOS ANGELES (UPI) The Los Angeles Angels yesterday sent 1964 contracts to 40 men on the baseball club's roster and general manager Fred Haney said he anticipated no difficulties in signing any players. Southpaw pitcher Bo Be-linsky was not among those sent contracts because the eccentric hurler startled the club in October by appearing voluntarily at the Angels office and signing his 1964 contract. AMONG KEY players sent contracts for the first time were pitcher Barry Latman and.

first baseman Joe Ad-cock, obtained during the off season from Cleveland in a trade for outfielder Leon Wagner. Of those on the roster. 16 are listed for the first time.
