ussy 681 on Crown Corporation's new slock Making waves This column once light-heartedly explored the possibility of making surf by strategically dumping junk -cars into the deep six. It was an idea tossed up by Fred Hemmings Sr. over a bottle of beer and examined by Patrick McNulty, manag-; ing editor of Surfer Magazine. Such an undertaking would have had three fold benefits: ridding the island of rusting hulks, creating breeding grounds for fish, and, of course, making waves. So it was with interest we learned of a similar California movement spearheaded by Ron Drummond, a veteran surfer.

-Drummond's battle cry "Write your Congressman" is a far-reaching plea for artificial reefs along California's coastline. Drummond has made studies of Southern California beaches and submitted his findings to the Corps of Engineers for their use in further studies," Brig- General John Dillard of the Engineers calls Drummond's report a vivid and useful account of wave configuration. "The popularity of surfing and the need of more usable beaches and will be considered in the development of benefits to help justify coastal engineering projects," commented Dillard. Of CROWN CORPORATION 500,000 shares common stock ($1.00 par value) Price: $5.50 per share duty during the Detroit riots. But after all that duty, Lolich came back to win nine of his 14 games in the stretch run as Detroit finished just a game back.

The Chicago Cubs' double play combo of second baseman Glenn Beckert and shortstop Don Kessinger, is also doing, the same thing. Beckert is currently serving two weeks at Fort Sheridan, and will return to the Cubs' co tts dale, camp on March 11. Kessinger will leave Sunday for the same base and report back March 19. Elsewhere in the camps, Chicago White Sox Manager Eddie Stanky worked newly acquired outfielder Tommy Davis i at third base. Richie Allen showed up for Philadelphia's workout at Clearwater.

Allen is still recover ing from severe cuts of his right hand suffered in an accident last Aug. 24. But he participated in an indoor workout.

A 22-game winner last year and winner' of the Cy Young Award in the Ameri-, can League, Lonborg will return to Boston next week to have cast removed and start rehabilitation of his knee March 9. Trainer Buddy Leroux is hopeful Lonborg will be able to resume throwing by April 1.

Considering how close the AL race was last season, the loss of Lonborg for the first month of the "season could hurt the Sox. Of course; there's also no guarantee NIT field increased to 16 teams NEW YORK (UPI) The National Invitation Tournament continued its attempt to match the NCAA for postseason basketball prestige today with a record high entry for the 1968 classic at Madison Square Garden March 14-23. Aware the National Collegiate Athletic Association had for all intents and purposes dwindled to a two-team battle between UCLA and Houston, the NIT selection committee yesterday decided its -field would be increased from 14 to 16 teams to accommodate some popular also-rans in conference competition. John Bach, chairman of the committee, said the night of Friday, March 15, would be added to the playing a and that byes would be eliminated. Seven teams currently make up the lineup, with nine more to be added.

Long Island University and St. Peter's were invited Wednesday night to join Fordham, Army, Notre Dame, Du-quesne and Oklahoma CityJ Drummond also has the support of the Capistrano Beach Community Association. This group has gone on record to Senator George Murphy in favor of artificial surfing reefs. Said Drummond in the Dana Point Lamplighter, "During the early construction of the west Dana Point Harbor breakwater a fine temporary surf was created where surf had never before existed. "This was caused by the laying of the corestone, a 30-foot deep foundation.

Effects from this corestone may be a clue'to. one of-Ihe. simplest forms'of making artificial reefsvand the cost would be relatively little. "In time, after, jnore I feel certain that specialized surfing reefs could be perfected to produce practically ny type of wave Stressing the gent need for? more surf for already over-taxed California, Drummond said," "A number of such reefs properly situated would not only offer variety, but open surfing still further." Included in Drummond's experiments was the home-remedy construction of a 120-foot section of plywood below sea level at Doheny Beach. Doheny, a picnic park which draws people from three sprawling counties, needs more -than artificial waves.

Lifeguards have counted as many as 500 surfers in the water together. Drummond's next move is to influence coastal cities to back his play, and their reasons may not be unselfish. city of San Diego appears particularly interested in fostering surfing (San Diego sponsored the World Meet last year) and other coastal towns have their well-attended surf cohtests," prummQnd says.

Is it likely this election year will see California politicians waxing surfboards rather than kissing babies? There was a time: old cars were dumped off Oahu's reefs.

This was many years ago5, and why it was stopped is not clear. But wouldn't it be nice if Sand island were suddenly devoid of last year's car payments and surfers were hooting down the walls of artificial waves? Ala Moana is a break made fabulous by the creation of a channel through the reef. Another "accident" is incinerators off Kewalo Basin. Here the channel runs out "on a curve toward Ewa, and as the swell crosses it from the southwest, the lip of the reef acts much like Drummond's plywood fence. The result is the finest body surfing wave this writer has ever seen.
