THE TIMES RECORD, THOY, N. TUESDAY EVENING. DECEMBER 24, 1M7 RPI Faces Brown On Opening Night Of Invitational Hockey Tourney A A i i Wachter "Basket" To Be Used In Union Cage Event By BOB KUSCO RPI announced Ihc pairings lor its sevcnlh annual Invitational Hockey Tournament yesterday and Union basketball lournimcnt officials revealed some startling innovations are in order lor this Week. The hockey tournament, which will be run Jan. 1, 3, and 4, will open with Yale meeting the University of New Brunswick while HPI takes on Brown.

The following night Brown plays VTNB in the first game and host RPI meets Yale. The tournament closes With Brown against Yale and New Brunswick against RPI. The Drop Dribble Derby, be- iides pairing four well-balanced teams, should gain some national recognition by: 1. Using a hoop, which will be sel out 18 inches from the backboard; 2. Using an on the floor, behind which all will count as three points; 3.

Adopting the professional rule which calls for an automatic two free throws on any back court foul. Tournament talk dominated yesterday's meeting of the North- 'eastern New York Sportswriters, frcld at the Tavern, with RPI as host. Both Athletic Director Paul S. Graham and Coach Ned Hark, ness agreed on one main point: year's tournament will be perhaps the most-evenly matched of any. Harkness intimated that in years some teams were re- Jucla.it to attend, because of the of heavy favorites, such as Minnesota, Toronto University Michigan Tech.

'When you i consider that New Brunswick plays in a league with some itrong Senior A teams, and last year went into the Allen Cup you know they have to fce good. "Brown is no pushover. They've won two games, tied Boston College and lost only to Bos- ton probably the best team in the East. And their goalie, Harry Bitchelder, is supposed to be the best in the East.

YUe's Still Yale "Yale is no. pushover," he con- 'tinued. "And as for my club v'ell, we're mighty hungry for that tournament trophy. We've Been in this thing six years now still no first prize," 4 Graham, speaking along the lines, agreed that maybe Ihis is RPI's year: "I'm getting tired of handing out those bowls to visitors," he "Vdded with a grin. Union's cage a ''which runs Dee.

26, 27 and 28, in- 'volves the host Dutchmen, RPI and Hamilton, i a Danny Cunha, speaking for the tournament officials, made announcement a the "experiments." The x-xtended hoop idea is the baby of Ed Wachter, Troy's, su- 'perinlendent of recreation. Wach- Mer conceived of it years ago and Actually had a demonstration put in the Troy YMCA in 1947. His idea is to try to equalize the tremendous advantage of the liig man on tap-ins. Presumably the shooter will no longer be able to use the close backboard to his shots. Most of them wil have to be made clean.

And when shot misses, the tall goon be able to slap, slap, slap 'against the board until the sho goes in. Actually, the extendei should be more effective ithis year than it could have been In the past, since it will be coupled with the mandatory 12 loot lane. Incidentally, the hoop will als, be five inches higher from the than the prervnt ten feet. The three-point arc is a favor Cunha's. The lines will ex tend from sideline to sideline 'about 28 feet out from the bas Cunha reasons, logically, lha basketball needs a home-run dramatic." And wit many coaches and fans screamin today about the increased use the zone, what could be more fective in breaking up the sta nant defense than a three-poin outside shot? Foul Dulls Interest "The zone is i i baskctbal 5n Madison Square Gorden.

It' doing the same around the coun try." Danny explained. "N'ow with this outside line, you coul FOR RENT WITHOUT DRIVERS c.n BE 5-01 22 TROY TRUCK RENTAL, Inc. 16--117M. THOY ake that three-point shot, and if ou'rc hitting, really open up that me." The two-shot foul call on back- ourt infractions would eliminate he drag, which plagues manj ollcge games in the late stages the trailing team begins oughing up the leaders whcn- ver the latter has possession The idea, of course, is to trade ne point for possession and a wssiblc two-point field goal. But.

ith an automatic two free brows, the gamble becomes less tlractive. Back to hockey. Harkness said flatly yesterday, hat even if Cocaptain Don -Me- Arthur is able to play in the tour nament, he'll not break up the ligh-scoring first line combina ion of Paul Midghall, Cocaplain kits Kearns and Ron Palmer. "At I won't do any shut fling of that line until atter the ournament. I hate (o break up uch a combination.

So, what I'l irobably do is put McArthur bac! his second line spot, with Larr Iradlcy and Ohuck Urmsor Then, I'll switch Paul Ryan I he third line, with Karl Balland and Todd Holbrook." Harkness ihen took a minul point out the value of a switch player like Balland. Two-Way Player "Karl, who has always playe on defense, look over on the thirc ine when McArthur was hurl he's a regular forward, anr, a regular defenseman. When hi ine leaves the ice, Karl simpl drops back to the blue line for rick at defense. You can't over emphasize the contribution of player like that." The writers also listened to a tape recording of an interview with Yale Coach Murray Mur lock, conducted by sportscaste Bob Wallace. Murdock, who ha now seen all of the East's leadin earns in action, rated St.

Law and Clarkson as "just a ittlc weaker on the whole lhan ast year. "Boston is very powerful hey have five Canadian boys on the team. Harvard is strong, but vhen I saw (hem I didn't think hey were quite'as smooth as at he end of last year, which is ttobably 'to be expected. But wfore the season ends, they may Je even stronger." Back to basketball: Cunha tapped RPI as the "toui lament favorites; they've got a 5-1 record." Danny then went or praise the work ot Trojans Pa tfartone and Jackie Weaver in Saturday's win over LeMoyne 'Pat did a terrific job oil th iackboard with 21 rebounds which is second only to Bill; Harrell's record of 24. "Weaver had 19 points, am sank nine of 11 free throws the second half." Points at Defeat RPI's Billy Kalbaugh countere Cunha's referecncc to the Eng neers' 5-1, wWh "Yeah, but loo who gave us that lone loss." Billy singled out Jackie Robe: son and El-lie Hantho for thei play in the Union victory.

"Elli has a cast on one wrist, and be lieve me, that othe-- wrist isn too strong." Billy said the Engineers als got good work from sophomor Dick Besha, "the team quarle back," Dick Chait and sophomor Chuck Kinney in last Saturday victory at Brooklyn Poly. Union and RPI open the tou nament Thursday night at Hamilton-Sienna follows. Th following night Union plays Ha ilton, while Siena RPI me in the nightcap.

(AP) was Ohio State by a landslide yesterday as 83 football writers and as- orled guests were polled on the outcome of the Ohio State-Oregon Rose Bowl game New Year's Day. Of the guests at the annual writers' luncheon lendefed by the Tournament of Roses, 61 picked the champions of the Big Ten to win by an average score of 21.4 points. Seventeen favored Oregon wilh a score of 5.1 points Five fcncc-straddlcrs picked a lie The rival coaches, Hayes of Ohio State and Len Casanova of the Pacific Coas Conference cochampions, played it cozy and in their ub servalions on the battle.

But this team, Hayes said, de vcloped in great fashion game by game after losing its opener will Texas Christian University.

Hayes made it plain he was no under-estimating his seniors and juniors but added that thrc sophomores, end Jim Hotislor lackle Jim Marshall and fullback Bob White, had been a big facto in the success of Ihe learn. Hayes i his su coaches he firmly refused call them assistants which Jec Casanova to needle a bit when he presented his four aides.

"I sincerely hope we will be a ause Cleveland had the only osing season in its history in 936.

The poor record gave the -lub an earlier pick than it usually gels. Brown promptly won the starling fullback job and helped the team regain the Eastern Division lille. Rushing Mark En route to the ball-carrying championship, Brown set an all- ime league rushing mark for a single game when he gained 237 ards against Ihe Los Angeles lams Nov. 24. Brown scored tour of the 10 ouchdowns he made this year in hat game.

One of his runs against the Rams covered 69 yards and was the longest scor- ng run from scrimmage made the NFL Ihis year. He also vas the team's top pass receiver 'n the game with three catches 'or 21 yards as the Browns ied to win, 45-31. Jim also played a vital part in Cleveland's 6-3 "no touchdown victory over New York in the season opener. His running Helped set up Lou Groza's first ield goal and he slashed through the 'Giants in the final minute to set up the 47-yard Groza field that won the game. The "iants were Ihe defending league and Eastern division champions and never quite recovered from hat defeat.

Brown, a native of Manhasset, N.Y., is only 21. Still a "grow- ng boy," he is six feet, two nches tall and weighs 230 sounds. All-Around Athlete Brown is one ot the country's top all-around athletes. He won elters in football, basketball, and lacrosse at Syracuse and could have letters in baseball and boxing if he hac chosen lo compete in Ihosc sporls. One day last spring he won three track events in a dua meet with Colgate, then changed uniforms and led Syracuse to a lacrosse victory over Army.

Aside from his speed and ath letic skill, Jim has the ((ualities Paul Brown seeks when he hunts football talent. He is a quiet well-dressed boy who neither drinks nor smokes.

Hundley, now a pro wilh Ihe Minneapolis Lakers, made Moun- aineer a Fred Schaus squirm with a bctwecn-seasons prediction that the 1957-58 team vould be the best in West Virginia history. It seemed a reckless forecast Schaus, starting his fourth icason as West Virginia coach and his first without Hundley Last season the Hot Rod averaged 23.1 points per game and made All-America as he led Wesl Virginia to a 25-5 record and a national ranking of seventh.
