Gil more Signs with ABA Colonels for $2 Mi I lion Plus By BILL WINTER Associated Sportj Wrlrtr LOUISVILLE, Ky. AP Firing the coals for a certain dollar- war with the National Basketball-Association, the American 'Basketball Association Kentucky Colonels signed Jacksonville Ail-American Artis Gilmore to a pact called "the biggest ever player." given to an ABA The 7-foot-2 center, flanked by Colonels' President Mike and ABA President Wendell Cherry, signed the pact before 11,000 spectators in Louisville's massive Freedom Hall Tuesday night. The signing ceremony, carried live on television, came between games of an ABA doub- Jeheader, with Gilmore slowly walking-the length of the court to the accompaniment of a standing ovation before inkinfi the contract. Storen said the contract was! he richest ever given an ABA player, but refused to reveal ils dollar value. A report by The Louisville Times Tuesday set the amount of the contract at "in excess of million," and Gilmore's college coach, Tom Wasdin, said in Florida that he had heard similar figures.

Gilmore's signing gave the ABA a running start in its recruiting battle with the NBA, and is expected to inspire other college seniors to hike their salary demands. Oregon slar Slan Love, the Pacific-8's top scorer this sea- 1 son but seldom mentioned often among the nation's leading pro prospects, said Tuesday he wants a $500,000 contract to play professional ball. Other top seniors are expected to demand higher fig- ires. Gilmore carries impressive credentials into his pro career. He averaged 26.5 points and 22.2 rebounds per game in leading the Dolphins to the finals of the NCAA championships during his junior year.

This season he led the nation in rebounding with 23.2 per Exhibition Baseball Lobos Shut Out SCSC, 5 to 0 ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.
