ets Hold Off Cavaliers For 19-12 Win SPOBSHnCR The Progress-Index. Sunday, October 11, 1959 23 Cage Shift Is Likely By HUBIE TILLERY First discussion of plans for the 1959-60 season in the City Basketball League and a projected church league offering a fast type of basketball have indicated that at least two of the Industrial League teams St season wil1 be moving into the City League this The first meeting called by Hatchett, acting assistant city recreatior director, did not bring out the full repre sentation desired and no definite action was taken to line up the new program. Pour of last year's city league mem bers--Leonard's, Lubman's, WP.VA and the Cavaliers, sent representatives to the as did the Highway Departmen I and Brown Williamson teams of the Tillery Industrial League. Spokesmen for the Highway Department and Brown Williamson teams said they would like to move into the City League this season. Othei teams in the Industrial League were not represented Tucker physical director of the Petersburg Central YMCA, is working to organize a fast Church League.

It has been proposed that members of some of the Industrial League teams play in this league as representatives of the churches they attend Both Hatchett and Ramsey believe that if the Church League can be augmented by talent drawn from the Industrial League that two fast circuits-the City League and the Church League--can operate Hatchett said that he hoped definite action could be taken to hit upon an adequate program for the new season at another meeting to be held at the YMCA tomorrow at 7 p. m. Representative of church teams, City League and Industrial League and anyone else interested in the program are asked to attend. Joe Campbell Top Golf Rookie Look no further for the "Golf Rookie of the Year --he is Joe Campbell, 23, of Anderson, and his selection has been announced by Golf Digest Maga- Pros and amateurs can take a tip from the Indiana youngster whose philosophy about golf is calm enough to suit the m6st relaxed player. "If I take a 10 hole," he says, "I don't believe it's because of pressure.

It's because I made some bad shots. I believe in going out on the course, shooting your game and taking what you get. Sometimes you play well, sometimes badly." Balancing Campbell's philosophy with his success as an amateur and pro makes sense. He has earned $10,000 in prize money this season. As an amateur, Campbell won a place on the 1957 United States Walker Cup team and finished second In the Western Amateur that year.

He joined the pros after the 3958 Masters Tournament where he came home with a creditable 314. He decided against going on tour at that time but accepted a playing pro job at Beaverbrook Country Club in Knoxville, Term. He still holds this position. The Carling Open in 1958 was his first PGA Tournament as pro. Hard luck beset him and he finished out of the money.

Competition in the Mayfair Inn Open at Sanford, Fla. the following month wound up in another failure. Luck changed early this year when he hit paydirt with a tie for 17th in the Los Angeles Open. His two best 1959 finishes, ties for second, also occurred on the winter tour--at San Diego and at Tucson where he had a 54-hole total of .194 which stands as a 1959 PGA record for three rounds. Campbell is a natural athlete despite his relatively small stature.

He played guard on the Purdue University basketball team and got his "major" in golf. As a collegian, he won the NCAA championship in 1955 and was the Western Conference individual titlist. the following two years. He was chosen for top rookie honors this year by the vote of the year's 25 leading money winners on the PGA tour. Ken Vcnturi won I i coveted award from Golf Digest Magazine in 1957 and Bob Goalby was named last year.
