The Tarns victory enabled them to remain in a tie with Dieruff, a 75-73 winner over Al len, for first place in the East Penn League with identical 6-1 records. Bethlehem fell to 5-2. Bethlehem never led in the overtime as George Krell hitting on long jump shots, gave the Tarns a 58-56 lead early.

Fran Horwath, who finished with 26 points, kept the Hurricane in the game by getting four shots in the extra period. However, Bethlehem could not tie but did come within one point on three occasions. The Red and Blue had an oppor tunity for the last shot but a pass went astray beneath the basket. Krell connected for four of his 22 points in the overtime. John Mateyak got his only goal in the period on a jumper from the side.

Krell sent the game into ov ertime when he hit on a long jumper with less than 30 sec onds left in regulation play. With 50 seconds remaining, Hor wath had sank two free throws to give Bethlehem a 56-54 mar gin. The battle was close through out in the first half. The lead changed hands 14 times and there were nine ties. The Tarns biggest leads in the initial half were 4-0 and 14-10.

Bethlehem never had more than a two-point lead. Near the end of the first half, Krell's long jumper followed by Art Connely's foul toss gave the Tarns a 27-25 edge. But, Horwath came back with a layup and John Lehman hit from the side to put Bethlehem back into the lead. Krepak's jumper with 10 seconds left forced a 29-29 halftime tie. Bethlehem, hurting for rebounding, missing key shots and plagued by poor ball han dling, seemed out of the game midway in the third period.

The Tams put together 10 straight points, seven by Paul Long, to go ahead, 41-34. The Hurricane fought back and tied, 48-all, on Horwath's three-oint play with 5:30 left. Bethlehem won the JV game, 90-71. TAMAOUA Lona 4-3-t-ll. Tomchick 5-0-3-10.

ODD Fnnnnnp Special to The Morning Coll PHILADELPHIA Muhlenberg went cold five different times Tuesday night, and in those periods Drexel accounted for 62 of its points as it rolled to a 93-50 win over the Mules in a Middle Atlantic Conference game in Sayre Junior High School. The Dragons, in posting their 13th conference win without a loss and boosting their over-all record to 19-1 they have lost to Cheyney used scoring spurts of 15, 14, 9, 13 and 11 points while handing the Mules their 16th loss in 20 games overall. As it has been on many nights for Muhlenberg, the Mules couldn't cope with Drexel's height advantage. The Dragons outrebounded the Mules, 62-44, and they scored at will under the basket.

Joe Hetrick led a balanced scoring attack for Drexel with them before Saturday," said Bavasi. "Not Wills, of course. He's in Japan and isn't expected in camp until March 6 or 7." Drysdale is generally believed to have received about $75,000 and Koufax $74,000 in 1965. "It is true, Bavasi said, "that I have been thinking in terms of around $100,000 but nothing has been settled on a figure." Bavasi concluded in this vein: "I haven't made them a formal offer as yet." "No question, Koufax and Drysdale are extremely valuable players," he went on. "They want a lot of money and I want to give them a lot, but their idea of the word 'lot' might be different than mine." "I wifl not comment on the figures, which would put me in the position of negotiating through the newspapers," Drysdale told the newspaper.

game winner, said he and Koufax are negotiating but the big righthander declined to discuss financial details. The Herald Examiner story said shortstop Maury Wills was also demanding a salary commensurate with the two pitchers. Bavasi told the Associated Press he, was also unaware the two hurlers were asking for three-year contracts but added: "They may be as far as I know. So many people are in the act I don't know what's going on." The newspaper story indicated doubt that either of the three stars, who have been key factors in the Dodgers' two world championships in the past three years, would.be on the players' plane to Vero Beach, Saturday. "Of course I expect to talk to LOS ANGELES (AP)-P itching ace Sandy Koufax is asking for $600,000 and his costar, Don Drysdale, for $450,000 for three-year-contracts with the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers, the Herald-Examiner said Tuesday.

The copyrighted story by baseball writer Bob Hunter was confirmed in part by the Dodgers' vice president and general manager, E. J. (Buzzie) Ba-vasi. "Yes, they are asking for a lot of money but this $600,000 is news to me," said Bavasi, who handles contract matters for the club. Koufax, the Dodgers' two-time Cy Young Award winner and a 1965 26-game winner, was not available for comment.

Drysdale, the towering 23- In Tie By JOHN KUNDA Morning Call Sports Editor i Dieruff escaped the Little Palestra pressure cooker last night but not by much. The Huskies, who were in command by as much as 15 points, fought off a remarkable Allen comeback to post a 75-73 victory in what probably was the most thrilling finish the two teams have played since they split seven years ago. The victory was a credit to Dieruff which maintained its STANDINGS W. L. Pet.

And in defeat, the Canaries can take consolation in the fact that they extended the hand of the first-half cham pion. The Huskies couldn't afford to lose this one, played before a packed house of 1,800. The vic-ory, coupled with Tamaqua's win over Bethlehem, put the Huskies in a virtual three-way tie with the two Anthracite entries Tamaqua and Hazleton with only this week left in the 1965-66 season. Allen appeared to be hope lessly out of the game when it trailed 55-40, with 2:22 left in the third period.

But instead, the Canaries charged back strongly to catch the Huskies at 69-69 with 2:24 left in the game. Dieruff didn't give in easily and when Lopsonzski tapped a goal at 2:10 that gave the Huskies a 71-69 lead, they hung on to the end. Jeff Arbogast and Skip Kintz each added a "pair of fouls that coun ter-acted Jim Hinman's two late Allen field goals for the narrow two point victory. Lopsonzski not only gave the Huskies the go-ahead goal, but he also had a key defensive play which forced the Canaries to give up the ball. The Dierufl senior made a clean steal with 1:44 to go and the Huskies worked slowly looking for the fouls which they picked up.

Barry Levine, Allen's good-shooting junior, was the boy who climaxed the rally with the tying field goal. He stole beautifully and canned a short jump shot which gave the Allen fans some hope. The Canaries got into a hole early in the game when their ace Joe Moore picked up three personals in the opening period. He didn't play at all in the second quarter and here's where the Huskies looked' their best. With Kintz leading the way, Dieruff opened up a 14 point lead.

Kintz had 16 of his 31-point total in that second quarter, but had to share top billing with Allen's scrappy back-court man Barry Nagle. Nagle personally chopped down the big Dieruff lead with nine points in a spree that saw Allen outscore Dieruff, 11-2. And four of his points he set up himself with two dandy steals. Kintz was a great offensive player all night, but was more effective in the second quarter. He scored 13 field goals and CHURCH PLAYOFFS Lou Christman and Bob Herman scored 20 and 17 points, respectively, last night as seasonal champion Grace UCC moved into the final playoffs in the Church League with a 69-63 win over St.

TRUCK DEALER Vikings Trip Easton, 65-57 Game League Skid Hazleton Stays Alive With Romp HAZLETON Hazleton placed five men in double figures and rode a spectacular shooting performance by Dan Gallagher to an 82-69 win over visiting Pottsville Tuesday night. Pottsville had begun cutting into Hazleton halftime lead and had managed to lower the margin to six points at 36-30, before Gallagher took charge. Hitting on long arching one- handed push shots from the corners and several driving layups, he scored seven straight buckets without a miss to push the Mounts ahead 60-39. Overall, he finished with 12-out-of-15 from the floor and 24 points to lead Hazleton in the scoring column.

Joe Tito added 17, and Phil Andras, Rich Fud-dy, and Lew Fiore picked up 16, 15, and 10, in that order. But the offensive display was not the only vital element in the victory. Andras and Tito played excellent defensive games in holding Pottsville's two highest scorers worm Waters and Tom Shaffer to six points each on three field goals and no foul chances. Hazleton, which won its fifth game in the second half of East Penn League competition to stay in contention for a playoff berth, took its first lead on Gallagher's push shot in the second period.

Central Catholic, faced with the possibility of a winless season in the East Penn League after winning the championship a year ago, turned an all-out effort last night into a 65-57 victory over Easton before a small but appreciative and noisy crowd of 1,000 in Rockne Hall. The Vikings had lost 14 straight league games since defeating Pottsville in the 1965 finale, but they used a change in defense and some clutch scoring by Jack Johnson and Ray Bazylak in the final quarter to gain the most cherished victory of Coach Mike Koury's rookie season. Central Catholic took a 48-43 lead into the last period and immediately started to play deliberately, looking for the opening against the Red Rovers' zone. Four times it worked in the first four minutes, with Johnson and Bazylak each scoring twice to just about insure the win as the lead mounted to 56-45. The Rovers never were able to fight closer than seven points as they bowed for the boards and form a strong defense, y.

Fisher was high for Easton with 22 points, getting 13 in the first half when his height proved too much for Kramer and Bazylak. John Cappellano, a rugged football halfback who is developing into a fine basketball player, tallied 17. Joe Braido added 11 Central Catholic never trailed after the first period (15-14), but the Vikings couldn't pull away until the second half. They had a number of opportunities in the second period when the Rovers managed only two field goals, but Easton's foul shooting kept it within two points at the half, 32-30. After Johnson's key play in the third quarter the Vikes ran up a 12-point lead, 45-33.

Easton's junior varsity gained a 54-51 victory in the opening game. EASTON Fisher 8-6-8-22, Braido 5-1-2-11, Cappellano 6-5-6-17, Keiber 1-0-2-2, Schramm 0-1-3-1, Hufstutler 1-2-2-4. Totals: 21-15-23-57. CENTRAL CATHOLIC Johnson 8-8-10-24, Bazylak 5-2-2-12, Witkowski 3-2-4-8. EM wood 0-0-1-0.

"We switched our defense from a 1-2-2 to a 1-3-1 in the second half, putting (Junior) Witkowski on (Tom) Fisher," said "The move worked well as Fisher was blocked out and couldn't get the good shot." Johnson, a hard driver and good shooter from the outside, led both teams in scoring with 24 points.

He turned in a key play early in the third quarter to help send the Vikes into a lead they never lost. With Central Catholic leading 33-32, Joe Kramer scored on a drive and added a foul for a three-point play. When Easton took the ball out of bounds, Johnson stole the pass-in; laid it up for another field goal and was fouled. He added that conversion to push the Vikes into a 39-32 advantage and Easton never got closer than three points thereafter. Bazylak scored 12, freshman Bob Neff 11 and Kramer 10 for Central Catholic.

Neff and sophomore Denny Williams made a number of steals with their pressing tactics and- Kramer teamed with Johnson, Bazylak and Witkowski to control the and had a five-Doint edse after five minutes of play. The Engineers whittled the lead down and scored six straight to take a 13-12 lead. The Engineers controlled the early stages of the second half before finding themselves down by 11 points.
