She was teacher in the Southern Seminary and Junior College of the University of Virginia at Sweet Briar, and was tutor five years at Vassar before assuming her present position at UB year ago. They were married last June 29, and then took off on a month's vacation to Jamaica In the West Indies. Chickie now, in addition to her physical education teaching program, tutors UB girls in tennis, bowling, badminton, swimming and basketball and, most of all, has organized and is "the Boss" in field hockey, a game in which she is an internationally known She has been the smallest in weight and height of the U.

1930, Francis Wilfred Poisson had to struggle to obtain an education to become a teacher, and now his chief plan in life is to be helpful to others. His parents still live in Fitchburg, where his dad is a foreman in I paper mill. Small, but full of vim and determination, Fran attended St. John's parochial school, then graduated from St. Bernard's high school in 1948.

He was interested in gymnastics by the German Turnists of his home town and decided to gain a career in learning and teaching. But he needed money. So, with his dad's influence he was assigned to be a laboratory technician at one of the mills and put enough money in the bank to enter Arnold college, then located on the shores of Milford, in 1949.

(AP)-Jack Nicklaus stormed from behind yesterday with his second straight sub-par 66 to throw the Sahara invitational Golf Tournament into a three-way deadlock at the end of 54 holes.

The result left the 23-year-old Masters champion tied at 207 with the early leaders, Geiberger and Gay Brewer. Nicklaus was four strokes behind as this third round started over the par 36-35-71 Paradise Valley Country Club course, with Brewer and Bob Harrison in front. Brewer shot a 70. Harrison, a darkhorse from Palm Desert, took a 71. Geiberger, the first round leader, had a 69.

Harrison wound up in a tie at 2K with Claude King, who had a 69, and Don Whitt, who shot a 67. Arnold Palmer, the co-favorite with Nicklaus in predictions, failed lo gain ground. His 70 left him in a (ie with seven others at 212. Harrison bogeyed three of the last five holes, to remove himself from top picture. Geiberger missed by two inches on an 18-foot putt on the 18th, which would have given him the undisputed lead, and Brewer also had a near miss with a 15-footer for a birdie on No.

Pro Basketball Knights Gain First Victory By PETE NEVJNS Possession is 95 per cent of the law and maybe 93 per cent of football.

The value of ball-control was demonstrated last night as the University of Bridgeport football team pounded out a 13-8 victory over American International College of Springfield, Mass. The Purple Knights clung to the football with leech-like tenacity. They ran off 72 plays compared lo only 33 for the losers and therein lay the difference in the game. A happy Homecoming crowd of more than 6,000 at Hedges Stadium had a host of heroes to cheer lor. Brouwer Stars Foremost was quarterback Ron Brouwer, who played the whole game on offensefi and directed the Knights with the coolness and cleverness of a professional.

Brouwer passed for 96 yards and ran for 40 in guiding UB to its precious first victory of the season after four losses. AIC is now The Knights scored the first time they had the ball as Brouwer marched the team 58 yards in plays with halfback Mike Bourque carrying over from the one- yard line. The long plays in the series were a pass from Brouiver to slot-back Dick Conetta and "-yard run by halfback Dom Arangio. But whenever Brouwer needed key yardage, he rolled out himself around either end and powered for the necessary Ji tance. Conetta tallied UB's other siv- the last p)a the first naif.

The Knights col- ected M2 rushing yards and 96 on passes.

Key stars in the UB forward wall included center Rick McNamara, whose fierce rush on the Aces' punter in the second quarter led to a poor kick and eventually to Conetta'5 touchdown, and Jim Spinella, a hard-nosed end who played nearly the entire game. George Geignetter, a 230-pound tackle back in action for the first time in three weeks, pounced on a fumble to thwart one AIC drive while tackle John Murphy fell on the ball on the Aces' last-second on-side kickoff attempt to ensure the victory, DiSpirito effectively utilized a two-platoon system and noted that "all the did a topnotch job in there."

Wisconsin, the nation's second- ranked team, knocked Iowa out of a tie for the conference lead and saddled the hard-httting Hawks with their first ioss. Powered by the crushing defensive play of guard Mike Reilly, Iowa blunted the previously-explosive Badger offense and Wisconsin only once was able to drive past the Hawkeyes' 40-yard line.
