i i THE MIAMI NEWS, Sunday, Pec. 12, 1965 3C More Passes, OKLAHOMA BIDS FOR ROYAL Utah's Nasfel Named Iowa Head Coach 2A ore Plays NAGEL 1 In '65 Games Miami Newa Win Sernrea In the annual Football Coaching Derby yesterday, a pastime which coaches are chased or pursued, depending on their won-loss record, one coach was hired, one was recommended for hiring and one was given a longer contract. The University of Oklahoma Athletic Council unanimously recommended that Texas coach Dar. Royal be named the University of Oklahoma football coach to scceed Corner Jones, who resigned. Louisiana State's board of supervisors extended the contract of head coach Charles McClendon until 1971.

University of Iowa hired Ray Nagel to succeed Jerry Burns, who was fired four days before the end of the season, Nagel was head coach at Utah for eight years. Announcing he had talked with Royal and that he "was interested', Oklahoma president Dr. George L. Cross revealed Royal would be offered a five-year contract with salary and benefits in excess of $32,000 annually. He said he felt reasonably sure of Royal's acceptance within "the next few days." Asked what influenced the athletic council and screening committee to recommend Royal, Dr.

Cross replied: "I would say beating us eight times in a row." who resigned as coach Monday after a 3-7 season, will remain as the school's athletic director at a base salary of $18,000 a year. McClendon was under fire at LSU earlier in the season when his team lost three games. The Tigers finished with a 7-3 record and an invitation to meet Arkansas in the Cotton Bowl in Dallas Jan. 1. Nagel's Utah teams won .42, lost 39 and tied one.

His 1964 club was the school's best ever, winning 11 games, Including the Liberty Bowl, and tying for the Western Athletic Conference title. He was named conference coach of the year. ROYAL Ashe Wins Again From Emerson Third Defeat For Wimbledon Champion V. Cont'd jrom 1st Sports Page around quarterback, the ballhandler, is fine, but he must be able to pass to play now. "You simply can't run a closed formation any more," said Kensler, "because the defense will dictate to you.

The only way you've got a chance to dictate to the defense is to spread it out." Kensler anticipates a new kind of defensive superman, too. There will always be a place in football for the brute, but with the added striking power available through offensive specialists, the defender must be swift and decisive as well as strong. "Everywhere on defense," he said, "the emphasis is going to be on speed. It used to be that your secondary would compliment your line, but now your line winds up helping out your secondary." Everybody agrees that it's time to frame the rules. "It's more enjoyable for the spectator now," said FSU's Crutch-field.

"And," he added, "for the player. It's a more efficient and error-free game. After another year, when it settles down a little more, it's going to become even more efficient." U-M RAN 101 PLAYS AGAINST L.S.U. The new rules not only give the offense more time to develop variety in practice, but the ballhandlers now have more plays to work with, too. Miami had the state's one-game high for total offensive plays 101 against LSU.

But Florida went into the 90s several times after a high of 58 in 1964 and even FSU not really a throwing team got off more offensive plays. Last year, the offensive units had to kill time on purpose nearly every team used the delay of game penalty on punts to stop the clock for substitutions. This season, everything was geared to save time. The clock stopped instantly after kicking plays. The stepped-up passing game killed the clock with each incompletion.

"And the officials helped," said Kensler, "by keeping the pressure on you to get the play off within the time limits." The rules changes brought some problems with them. Colleges which had traditionally dominated their high school areas in recruiting the best two-way player's like Mississippi and Texas had troubles, perhaps because they could not adjust to specialization. Defensive coaches caught it everywhere, and nearly every head coach who was fired was thoroughly embarrassed at least once during the season by a whopping score. "Basic defenses got beat all over the place," said Kensler. "There is no general solution any more.

Even the pro defense i I i PUNCH IN THE NOSE. Referee Arthur Mercante appears to 1 be hit in the face by welterweight champion Emile Griffith but it is only the camera angle. Griffith retained his title by a unanimous decision over challenger Manuel Gonzalez Friday night at Madison Square Garden. S3 For Bowl Regatta JIM HARDIE Dolphins Seek Veteran To Help Norton By TOMMY FITZGERALD Miami Newt Rporti Writer The veterans' draft next month the pool supplied by the other American Football League teams and from which the Miami Dolphins will be privileged to select 32 players should be more productive than at first thought. This was revealed yesterday by Dolphins' co-owner, Joe Robbie, who Friday signed Miami's top draft choice Kentucky quarterback Rick Norton and who is now out to land bonus pick Jim Grabowski, the Illinois fullback.

"The entire taxi squad as well as anybody under contract will come under the, pool provisions," Robbie revealed. At first, it was announced only the 38 active roster players would be affected. A team would be, able to with-hold 23 and subject the other IS to selection by the Dolphins. "Why San Diego must have 30 or 40 players on its taxi squad," Robbie observed, "with the taxi squads not exempt, we have a much better chance of landing some top men. If they try to protect somebody on the taxi squad, they may have to expose some front-line offensive or defensive player to the draft.

For instance, San Diego and the Jets have three quarterbacks. They surely won't protect three. San Diego has high-bonus rookie Steve Tensi on the taxi squad and the Jets had big-bonus Huarte on the taxi squad until last week." He thinks Miami's chances of acquiring a veteran quarterback as burden-reliever and rope-teacher for Norton, a six-figure signee from University of Kentucky the other day, are excellent. He recognizes the practical benefits and human-interest publicity value if Babe Parilli, aging Boston Patriot quarterback, could be obtained for Norton's senior quarterbacking partner. Parilli was an all-America at Kentucky and held all Kentucky passing records until this whippersnapper Norton came along and broke them.

'We're looking into that possibility," Robbie said. Sid Gilman, coach of the, San Diego Chargers, thinks that Miami could be a "contender in the Eastern division of the league its very first year because of this liberality in the veteran player pool." Besides the seven top draft choices, the Dolphins also have signed 23 other players, mostly free agents.

"There's one guy I won't tell his name who got a letter from me that tells him in plain language that I will never, never again draft or deal with a player fof whom he is the negotiator Life is too short for me to put up with junk like that fellow tried to pull." Robbie also claims three players passed the word that they wanted to be drafted by Miami and then batted to NFL clubs who suddenly got interested. "You feel like the shuttlecock in a badminton game when this kind of sleezy practice starts," says the Minneapolis lawyer. "But we know now how to deal in the times ahead of us we learn and then, I hope, we earn in this lovely city of re-negotiation." the four-man front with the three linebackers who can rush or drop off to defend against the pass isn't the whole answer. Because your college quarterbacks aren't mak- ing $25,000 a year, and college coaches aren't afraid to run them. The running quarterback can wear but that pro defense." PLAY COMBINATION OF ALIGNMENTS College defenses don't operate on a onepattern game plan 1 any more.

They play a combination of alignments, and make an effort to hide what they're doing from the offense. Oddly enough, this has been a basketball fundamental for years maybe this is a form of basketball after all. Another problem which arrived on the college scene with complete specialization was the challenge to team unity brought ADELAIDE, Australia AP) Arthur Ashe sent Australian tennis prestige tumbling to its lowest depths in years yesterday when he came from behind to beat top-ranked Roy Emerson 7-9, 7-5, 6-0, 6-4 for the South Australian championship. It was Ashe's third victory over the two-time Wimbledon winner, rated the world's best amateur, and the second Australian tournament title for the Negro U. S.

Davis Cup ace from Richmond, Va. Ashe beat Emerson in the quarter-finals of the U. S. National Championships at Forest Hills, N.Y., and repeated the feat in winning the Queensland title, the first of the Australian season. The lean UCLA student lost to Australian Jon Newcombe in the finals at Sydney and bowed out in the Victorian tournament at Melbourne because of a toe ailment.

He has become the sensation of the Australian season. Little Nancy Riche" of Dallas, made it an all-America day in this humid state capital when she trounced Lesley Turner of Australia 8-6, 6-2 for the women's singles crown. The intense, auburn-haired Texas girl broke Miss' Turner'a service with backhand place ments for a 7-6 lead in the first set and won the set with a service ace. She jumped to a quick 3-1 lead in the second set and had no trouble thereafter. The skinny, 22-year-old Ashe was equally in command after dropping the hard-fought first set and winning the second.

He reeled off nine games in a row against Emerson, starting with the last two games of the second set. Australians couldn't recall seeing their No. 1 Davis Cup ace so clearly outclassed. There was one tense moment, however. In the fifth game of the opening set, Ashe dropped his racket and grabbed his right eye.

Play was stopped while attendants ran to him, and he was led to a sideline chair. Eventually, the American was led to the dressing room where Ashe himself removed an eyelash which had jammed into the corner of one eye. "It was irritating," Ashe said later. "The more I rubbed it the deeper it got" The American turned the tide of the match in the 11th game of the second set. With the score 5-5, he was down 0-40 on service when he rallied with a series of crackling services and cross-court placements to save the game.

up by the practice segregation of the offensive and defensive units. If the score was 63-47, the defense got the blame. If the score was 7-7, people wanted to shoot the offense. "It's something that every coach had to be aware of," said Miami's Charlie Tate, "and try to prevent. Our attitude was that if we won, there was glory enough for everybody and that if we lost there was no glory for anybody.

And now it's a question of getting both your teams up for every game if the offense is fired up, you can still lose it if your defense is flat, and vice versa." "We were concerned about the problem of cliques," said Florida's Kensler, "but every week the defense wound up cheering like mad for the offense and vice versa. I guess it was because it was the only time during the week that the two teams ever saw each other." for Bill Ritner, and won a lot of closed course races," he said. 1 The big step into unlimited hydroplanes came in 1955 when he campaigned "My Sweety" for Horace Dodge. That year he won the Silver Cup race in Detroit, and the Maple Leaf in Canada. "I started driving Miss U.S.

for U.S. Equipment Company in 1956. and again won the Silver Cup in Detroit," he said. The first of a string of serious mishaps occurred in 1957 here in Miami. "I was driving a 266 named 'Miss for Bob Smith of Baltimore," he said.

"I won a regatta at St. Petersburg and the following weekend we came to Miami to race at 'Haul-over. 'Wa-Wa, the boat I used to drive, ran into me and I was injured and out of action until mid-1958." Did the accident make him "gun shy" "I started driving again and won four straight races in the unlimited class," he said. He won the President's Cup in Washington, Governor's Cup in Maidon, Sahara Cup at Lake Mead, Nevada, and the Silver Cup in Detroit. In 1959, he won two heats in the unlimited in a regatta at Washington, and on the third heat the boat took a wild turn and catapulted him through the windshield with the boat running about 150 miles-per-hour.

"I woke up three days later in the hospital and spent the next two and a half months right there in the hospital," he said. Eight months later, he flew to Detroit and won two heat races and set the fastest qualifying time of the day. As if running under a black cloud, tragedy struck again in I960 this time the boat explosion in Seattle. Again he spent two and a half months in the hospital. "Two weeks after I got out of the hospital I flew to Lake Mead and set the fastest qualifying time of the day in 'Miss U.S.'," he said.

In recent months he has done some ocean racing and a lot of fishing. Don Wilson of Palm Beach, the big, freckle-faced redhead who suffered burns over 45 per cent of his body when an unlimited hydroplane he was driving exploded at Seattle in 1961, is returning to boat racing in the Orange Bowl Regatta. He is teaming with young, rotund, millionaire sportsman Ogden (Dinny) Phipps to campaign two limited hydroplanes in the top regattas next year. "I'll drive a 266 hydro and a 225 hydro for Dinny, and I've agreed to drive the unlimited hydro, 'Miss Budweiser, next season," Wilson said. Budweiser has purchased "Miss Bardahl," which has swept the boards in unlimited races the last three years.

Wilson met Dinny Phipps through John Hol-man of Charlotte, N.C. Holman-Moody Ford engines are leaders in the field of stock car and boat racing. Phipps and Holman are partners in the Marine Division of Holman-Moody, which is located here in Miami. "The 266 and 225 are new cab-over hydros designed by Ron Jones," Wilson said. "The boats are already in Miami and the engines are being prepared." Wilson got his start in boat racing in Detroit in 1950.

"Dad used to take me to watch Gar Wood race on the Detroit River," he said. "That's really what got me interested in boat racing. Dad got my brother, Stuart, and I started in racing. Dad lives in Detroit now, and is still a fan of racing." Stuart Wilson, (four years older than Don), a real estate man in Fort Lauderdale, quit racing two years ago. Don won the national championship in the 135 hydro class (now the 150 class) during his early days of racing.
