NCAA Play Opens Saturday Minnesota, Arizona Rate As Early Choices COUNCIL BLUFFS IOWA NONPAREIL-JUNE 1956 OMAHA and Arizona are the early choices of the fans in the NCAA College World Series opening here Saturday. Minnesota is getting a lot of nods because of the ability of the Big Ten Champions to clout the ball over the fence. Arizona is getting an equal number of nods because of an excellent one-two pitching pair Carl Thomas and Don Lee. And the fans are working up a big fever over an expected early clash between the two clubs. The series is a double elimination affair.

Would Meet on Sunday If Arizona beats New York University in the 11 a. m. opener Saturday and Minnesota gets past Wyoming in the 2 p. m. Saturday game, then the pair will Sunday evening.

Minnesota's Gophers went for the long ball in record manner this season, setting a Big marK of 29 home runs for the campaign, and then clipped Notre Dame and Ohio University in NCAA playoffs with more home runs. If they are to fight it out with Arizona for the series championship they'll have to handle the fast balls and curves of two pitchers who will be serving them up in their third consecutive national series. Has Two No-Hitters Thomas, a big right hander who can clout that ball himself, has turned in two no-hit games this season. Lee, a more slender right hander who shows the polish imparted to him by his father Thornton Lee, former Chicago White Sox pitcher, is unbeaten this year. Speaking of pitchers, Arizona may have a very tough chap to handle if Bob Goldsholl pitcher for NYU.

The New York University senior doled out but two hits in pitching his club into the series via a win over St. John's ol Brooklyn. In the lower bracket Mississippi and Washington State, the Pacific Coast conference champ, are top rated. "Ole Miss" meets New Hampshire Saturday night and Washington State and Bradley follow in the opening round finale. Arizona is the only club returning from the eight that made up the 1955 field.

NEW YORK Sam Snead, who has blown half a dozen chances to win the National Open Golf Chainpionsip, has a single word to describe his prospect in the annual tournament next week It's "stinking." "If I could get my touch on the greens the way I've done the times (three) I've won the Masters and some other tournaments, I'd figure my odds pretty good." the rhythm man from Virginia said. "But I'm stinking." Oeeked In Wednesday Sam checked into town Wednesday for defense of his Round Robin championship at Wykagyl in nearby Westchester County, starting Thursday. After Sunday's final rounds, he sets off for Rochester, N.Y., and the 56th annual Open June 14-16.

Mahoney's bobble gave Creighton Prep a chance to score in the extra frame and beat A. 2-1, in a well-played game at 21st and Tuesday.

Lynx pitcher John O'Connor and his Prep counterpart, Mike Coughlin, were locked in a tight pitcher duel after each team had scored in the second inning. Coughlin was more effective. stricking out 12. but O'Connor was at his best when he had men on base. Allowed Nine Hits He allowed nine hits, five in the first two innings but was helped greatly by the stellar play of cen- terfielder Larry Gillman.

Gillman made eight catches in the outfield and did not have any easy play on any of them. The gustingr wind kept him hor- ping as he handled everything hit his way. A. L. missed golden opportunities to get a run in the seventh and eighth innings when they left baserunners stranded.

Charley Johnson, Moore's manager, said Moore would not think of relinquishing light heavy title until he has the heavyweight crown under his belt. Pompey Led After Eight Moore let Pompey do most of the work in the early rounds and the Trinidad fighter was ahead on points at the end of the eighth. Then came the ninth and Moore pounded Pompey with crushing rights and left hooks. Blood spurted from a deep cut over Pompey's left eye. In the 10th, Moore went in for the kill.

He sent Pompey down for counts of eight, nine and eight before Referee Jack Hart stopped the slaughter. Pompey went to his dressing room with a deep cut over his left eye, another under his right eye and a big mouse over both. Moore was unmarked.

Layne had just fallen apart the sixth round of his bout against Jackson and he slumped on a chair, thoroughly exhausted. some guy he saiu ro Teddy Brenner, the matchmaker. "This guy is an octopus.

Result Was the Same But talk to Layne again--this 1 time at Detroit's Olympia last can't see him getting knocked out." So Hurricane Tommy Jackson, as you find out on the boxing beat, may have lost a lot of his old push.
