26-WAUSAU DAILY RECORD-HERALD MERRILL DAILY HERALD TUESDAY, MAY 25, 1971 Bonallack vowes English Big 10 searching for commissioner back Walker Cup beaten the top Americans him The British and American amateur golf teams square away Wednesday in a two-day tussel of foursomes and singles matches 24 altogether in the golden jubilee of the unique competition. The Americans have won 22 times and lost only once in the biennial battle played on both sides of the water. This time the United States sent here a remarkable combination of age and youth that looks good enough to give a bookmaker the willies. "I don't care about the odds," said Bonallack, who has si Art Wall Jr. leads .11 qualifying for Open Staff photo Merrill High School Golfers quested to be eliminated as a candidate for the premanent commissioner's job.

The conference athletic leaders, although reluctant to show disrepectful haste in replacing Reed, designated a screening committee of three faculty representatives and two athletic directors, stressing that there was no immediate deadline for picking a new commissioner. Marcus Plante of Michigan, faculty spokesman, said the committee would consult the directors for a qualified nominee who then would be recommended to the Council of Ten (school presidents) for final consideration. "The ultimate choice is not restricted to anybody in the Big Ten," said Plant. Plant conceded the choice could be made before the conference's no-agenda summer meeting at Petoskey, Aug. 9-12.

Members of the search committee are faculty representatives George Young, Wisconsin, chairman; John Fuzak, Michigan State; and Max Schultze, Minnesota; and athletic directors Bill Orwig, Indiana, and J. E. Weaver of Ohio State. The Big Ten constitution stipulates a commissioner's term shall start on July 1, unless otherwise agreed upon, and shall be for any period not exceeding 10 years. Reed died Thursday from hepatitis and arthritis shortly after starting his third five-year term.

Plant said that no other name, other than Dewey's as interim commissioner, came up at Monday's discussions. "There is no great reason for haste," said Plant "The only requirement for replacing Bill Reed was that machinery be set in motion within four weeks. We have done that. Now candidates will be examined and screened on the basis of their qualifications." The athletic directors did little in the opening session of the three-day meeting other than debate at length over tenders issued in "non-quota" sports. another triangular and lost one dual meet for an overall 13-3 record.

Team members included (front row left to right) John Lyon, Greg Frazler, Steve Haider; (back row left to right) Charles Hunslcker, Dan Rajek, Dave Preboske and coach Willis Bogenhagen. The Merrill Senior High School golf team finished second in the Wisconsin Valley Conference golf meet last week at Marsh-field. It is scheduled to compete today in the WIAA regional golf meet at Rhinelander. The Bluejays won six triangular and one dual meets this spring. They finished third in NFL owners to discuss player negotiations Each conference school earmarks 30 football and six basketball tenders per year with 34 other tenders being distributed at will among other intercollegiate sports.

No decision was reached on whether to trim the non-quota sports tenders under growing financial pressures.

Overall this season the Pointers finished with a record of 17-15 and this was the most wins ever by a Stevens Point team. IOWA CITY, (AP) A Big Ten search committee started hunting Tuesday for "the best available man in the country" as successor to conference Commissioner William R. (Bill) Reed, who died last week at 55. The league faculty representatives, opening a regular spring session with athletic directors Monday, named a five-man search committee and simultaneously appointed as in-termin commissioner, John Dewey, Reed's assistant the past decade.

Huebner, beaten by Petrosian in 40 moves Sunday after their first six games of the 10-game series at Seville, Spain, ended in draws, said his nerves were too disturbed for him to continue with any chance of success. In Monday's other quarter-final action in Moscow, Soviet Grandmasters Viktor Korchnoi and Yefim Geller played to a draw after 27 moves of the sixth game of their series. Korchnoi holds a 3tt-2tt lead over his countryman. The other quarter-final series pairing American Grandmaster Bobby Fischer of Los Angeles against Russia's Mark Taimanov at Vancouver, B.C., and Bent Larsen of Sweden against Wolfgang Uhlmann of East Germany at Las Palm-as, Canary Islands are to resume today. Fischer has a 3-0 edge over Taimanov and Larsen leads Uhlmann 4-2.

The tournament will provide a challenger for world champion Boris Spassky of Russia. At Seville Monday, the British referee offered to postpone the Huebner-Petrosian game for a few days and continue play behind closed doors. But the German Grandmaster refused and Petrosian was declared the winner. The games had been played in a lecture room before 200 spectators daily.

"We've got such a good team, all 10 of them, that I don't know who to play and who to leave out," said the 37-year-old British amateur champion and captain.

BBfflSS SL ft NEW YORK (AP) National Football League owners began meeting here Tuesday in Operation Clean-up, seeking to finish the work left over from their earlier meetings this spring. One of the items scheduled to be discussed was negotiations Rentzel has confidence in his future DALLAS (AP) Former Dallas Cowboys flanker Lance Rentzel, in an interview with Bob St. John of the Dallas Morning News, said Monday, "I'm more confident in my future than ever before." Rentzel, who was traded to Los Angeles in exchange for tight end Billy Truax and wide receiver Wendell Tucker, said his probation on a guilty plea of indecent exposure has "forced me to take a long hard look at myself. "And I can't tell you how much better a man I am for it. It may be the best thing that has happened as far as I'm concerned.

How many people are forced to stop and take a look at themselves honestly in their lifetimes? I've got a much better perspective on myself. I know how lucky I am to have things that maybe I took a little for granted before Rentzel was charged last November with exposing himself to a 10-year-old girl. He pleaded guilty to the charge in April. with the players. Tex Schramm of the Dallas Cowboys, bead of the owners' negotiating com-.

mittee, was scheduled to report on the status of negotiations. Talks between the owners and the players have been stalled since the Players' Association filed an unfair labor practices grievance against the owners with the National Labor Relations Board. The owners also are scheduled to wrestle with a revised procedure for breaking ties to determine post-season playoff spots and consider possible rules changes involving penalties on plays where there is a change of possession. In considering the breaking of ties for playoff spots the owners will be looking for additional competitive factors to break such ties in order to make the coin flip procedure as remote as possible. The rules change being considered involves a change of possession in which each team commits a foul after the ball has changed hands but while Wausau summer bowling WBC3-MAN LEAGUE High Series: Ron Betzner 560, Dave Neitzel 555, Norm Gritz-macher 542, Ivan Corazella 538, Martin Wilichowski 537.

-Gov. Wendell Anderson was leafing through a stack of bills on his desk awaiting his signature when one abolishing the game of ice hockey caught his eye. "We asked if they really passed the thing," an aide said Monday. Martin Sabo, a political ally of the Governor, was listed as the main author. "He was going to veto it," Anderson's aide said, until several staff members could no longer contain the secret that the bill was a phony.

It had been slipped into a stack of bills the governor was checking before signing into law. The bill said hockey produces "an overabundance of agres-siveness, mayhem and pugnacity" among players who "sometimes become politicians" and continue "to be super-aggressive as they were as players." Because of this ill effect, the phony bill stated, the game of hockey is abolished. Violation carried a $10,000 fine and two years in jail. Anderson, 38, played hockey at the University of Minnesota and in the 1956 Olympics. He continues to play amateur hockey in a senior league In St.
