"A A I 1 i The teams to boat in their respective conference races meet the teams that could just do it tonight in local high school basketball action. The big one for local fans pits University High School, probably one of the top two teams Li the Corn licit Conference, against capable Central Catholic.

The conference game starts at 8 o'clock at the High gymnasium. At Bloomington High School, undefeated and second ranked Lincoln meets the IMrple Haiders in an 8:13 Big 12 Conference match. Surprises and near-surprises have been the rule rather than the exception In this rivalry. At Springfield, Normal Community takes on the class of the Capitol Conference in a league tilt against Southeast High School at 8 o'clock. THE PIONEERS have lost three straight, but still carry a 10-4 record and a 2 0 Corn Belt mark.

High may not be rated as the top team In the Corn Belt with Washington so highly talented, but a 10-game winning streak at one point certainly made the Pioneers noticeable. Central Catholic has a 6-5 record, Including a 73-58 loss to High in the Intercity Tournament, and a 1-1 league mark. Pioneer coach Bob Mctcalf will start 6-foot-5 junior Tim Edwards at forward in place of Dave Mizer. "We're trying to get a little more offensive rebounding," explained Mctcalf. "We hope it doesn't hurt us on defense.

Also, we hope for some more scoring punch." Mctcalf's club was jolted by Normal Community, 57-47, Tuesday, but the coach said his club appears to be bouncing back. The main concern for the Pioneers will be controlling Central Catholic's 6-1 forward Mike Bradley. He's averaging 24.4 points a game and has. had games of 50, 42 and 40 points. Metcalf said cither All-Stater Jim MMe Swingle, 77m Bushell teams split, each winning on its home court.

In the 190-70 season when Lincoln fashioned a 30-1 record, the Raiders lost, twice, by Just one point on their own court. This year the teams met in the Ed-wardsvillc tournament with Lincoln coming out on top, 31-21. "You can throw out all the offensive and defensive records when you play at Bloomington because there's not going to be that much scoring," said Lincoln coach Duncan Rcid. "You've hit the nail on the head when you say its going to be very slow." Sackctt was pleased with his team's play in its loss to Lincoln at Ed-wardsvillc. "We felt like we played pretty good," he said.

"We had opportunities to go ahead early and if we had, it might have been a different game. "Both defenses were real good. We wanted to take some shots there, but just couldn't. The defenses were Just that good." Lincoln Is a team with youth, height and balance. Six-foot-8 Junior center Norman Cook leads the team with a 19.8 scoring average and a 13.2 rebounding average.

But there's not a weak link on the team with all five starters scoring in double figures including the added height of 6-6 guard Scott Bctzclberger and 6-6 forward Tom Bushell. "Cook is one of the best big men I've seen," praised Sackett. "But you can't concentrate on him. They're all fine ball players." Reid has respect for BUS' 6 6 sophomore center Dan Rutledge and senior guard Roger Nelson. "I think that Rutledge has the poten-tial to be a real fine basketball player," said Reid.

"Nelson, although his shooting was off that night at Edwardsville, is a real fine shooter." Bloomington has a 7-6 record and 1-1 Big 12 mark. NORMAL COMMUNITY could be the giant killer. The Ironmen upset High Tuesday for a 5-41 record and surprised Springfield Lanphier last month on the way to a 2-3 Capitol record. And with Southeast possibly in a depleted condition, the Ironmen could do it again. Run and gun Southeast has a 9-1 record, losing only to Washington by one, and a 3-0 conference mark.

But, the Spartans may be without two guards and their coach tonight. Leading scorer Mark Haynes has a virus and another regular guard Jeff Allen has an injured foot. Haynes has a 13-point scoring average and Allen a 10-point average. In addition, Southeast coach Larry Garrison left school Thursday with the flu. "They're supposed to be the best In the league," said NCHS coach Tom Cooper.

"They've got big kids. They're bulky 210-215 pounds and real quick. "They've got all it takes size, quickness, talent and depth. They've been playing eight or nine kids." Eastern defeats Stevens Point, 82-72 CHARLESTON, III. (UPI) Eastern Illinois University jumped off to a 28-9 lead with 9:13 left in the first half Thursday night and went on to defeat Wisconsin State-Stevens Point 82-72.

The closest Stevens Point got to EIU was the final score. EIU's Scott Keeve and Stevens Point's Les Gruner shared scoring honors with 21 points apiece. The win boosted EIU's season record to 7-3.

Crews or Ray Nicrstheimcr would draw the assignment of guarding Bradley. The Saints, who have been plagued by injuries and illness, are nearly at full strength although 6-8 center Tom Korte has been out of school with a virus since Dec. 17. Although Crews Is one of the most highly sought prep players in the country, coach John Snyder will be worrying about High's 6-7 center Cal Smith. "I feel Smith is the more Important player," said Snyder.

"Crews Is outstanding, no doubt, but to a high school team, a 6-7 boy Is the most important." IF THERE'S BEEN one area team to watch for state prominence in the past few years, it has been Lincoln. Even with four juniors starting, the Railers have rushed to a 12-0 record and a 4-0 Big 12 mark. Despite Lincoln's power, Bloomington hasn't been a pushover. Last year the Memphis State with 24 points and Larry Finch added 21 in the losing effort. Bradley is 2-1 in the conference and 7-4 overall.

Memphis State is 0-1 in conference action and 5-4 overall. SUMMARY Mtmphli St. 7) Bradlay (5) Robnson Morion Holcomb Fined McKnny Foxwrtn Tallff Andrew.

Then she hustles home to pick up the baby sitter and rush to the game. Following a post-, game dinner, she gets home with her husband about 11 p.m. "It's hard to find a good baby sitter," she said. "We had to go up to 75 cents an hour on ours." A native of Waukesha, Wis. some 20 miles west of Milwaukee Mrs.

Andrie has some advice for football widows. "Don't try to beat 'em, join 'em," she said. "The reason why most women don't enjoy football is that they don't understand it. Men need to be more pa tient and try to explain what's going on." Asked if she does anything special to help her husband make it through the long football season, she answered: "I pray a lot I light an awful lot of candles." Lewis College grad courses offered at BHS Bloomington High School basketball coach Ralph Sackett has called attention to graduate extension courses being offered by Lewis College.

The Dallas Cowboy defensive end plucked off a San Francisco pass and returned it six yards to the 49cr two-yard line to key a 14-3 National Conference final playoff victory. "My purse and everything in it sprayed people two rows away," said Mrs. Andrie.

"I thought he had scored just like he did against Green Bay in that ice bowl game. I knew better when I saw the offense going in. George's just saving his best moves for the Super Bowl." Pert Mary Lou has come a long way in football knowledge since she married the 6-foot-6, 2G0-pound Andrie in his second season with the Cowboys. "I had never attended a football game," she said. "I met George at Marquette but I was working my way through school and didn't have much time for outside activities.

"I'll tell you how bad it was I knew what a touchdown was and that was about it," she said. "I didn't even know what George was supposed to do. "After I went to a few games, I realized I had to learn more. George was Blue Moon Odom Odom said the man joined two companions and fled. Macon police said they had launched an intensive search for the assailant immediately afterward.

Odom played baseball at Ballard-Hudson High School in Macon. In 1964 he signed a $75,000 bonus contract with the Athletics and played in their farm system until he was called up in 1969. He pitched a no-hitter while winning nine and losing eight in 1970. -v- DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -Sophomore Bob Whitley scored four clutch baskets in the final eight minutes here Thursday night to lift Drake to a 61-58 opening Missouri Valley Conference victory over Wichita State. Whitley's basket with 2:58 to play 45-minute melee marks Blues victory PHILADELPHIA (AP) The St.

Louis Blues rallied for three goals in the final period Thursday night to defeat the Philadelphia Flyers 3-2 in a melee-filled National Hockey League game. The Blues, aroused by a melee with fans and police athe end of the second period which caused a 45 minute delay, got goals by Gary Unger, Phil Roberto and Gary Sabourin, with the final tally at 13:14 to take the verdict. Four members of the St. Louis team were held for interrogation by police after the game. Coach Al Arbour, defenseman John( Arbour, winger Phil Roberto and left wing Floyd Police were questioning about the near-riot that occurred when the Blues were leaving the ice at the end of the second period.

Philadelphia took the lead with two goals in the second period. Bob Kelly scored his fourth of the season on a 60-footer at 1:23 and Jimmy Johnson tallied off a faceoff at 17:15. Arbour protested to referee John Ashley on the drop of the puck on the Flyer's second goal and followed the referee off the ice at the end of the period. A fan allegedly poured beer on the ice spurring the fracas in which one policeman was slightly injured and others pushed. Four fans were injured and the St.

Louis coach required 10 stitches to close a wound in his head. The Blues defenseman required 15 stitches to close a head wound.

(AP) A would-be burglar shot Johnny "Blue Moon" Odom twice at close range Thursday, but the Oakland Athletics' pitcher apparently suffered no permanent injury.

Odom, 26, was reported in satisfactory condition in a Macon hospital Thursday night, and he was said to be in good spirits. The A's righthander, who had a 10-12 record last year, gave this account of the incident: A man tried to break into a house next door to Odom's mother's house in southwest Macon. "My wife saw him and the man left. Several people saw him and started following him. "lie passed by the package store where I was working and my wife ran in and told me the man had tried to rob our neighbor's house.

Odom said he told his wife to call the police, then he ran outside and chased the man she had pointed out. "I finally caught iip' with him and asked him to stop. I told him I wanted to ask him a few questions. He turned around and said, 'What and pulled' out the gun and started shooting." The gunman fired from about 15 feet, Odom said. The first shot struck the pitcher in the neck and the second in the side.

A third shot missed. "I was thinking I would never pitch again after the first shot. After the second shot I thought it was all. over.".
