"Howie's cramp is Just some- AFL Violates Draft Date Set For December DALLAS, Tex. (/P) The American Football League ad mitted yesterday that it had held a draft prior to the offi cial date—Dec. 2. It violated an agreement with the American Football Coaches Association and brought a protest from the NCAA. Commissioner Joe Foss did not term it a draft in a statement designed to clear up all misunder standings but he said the eight owners "conducted a poll among themselves in respects to a lim ited number of players with whom they would have intra-league ne-| gotiation rights.” ; Foss pointed out that the “priv-: ilege of negotiations for selected| players, which was conducted par tially on a territorial basis, was to embrace all regulations of the by-laws in respect to the signing of college players.” These by-laws prohibit signing; any player before he has playedj his last college football game, thus the AFL “jump the gun” draft will not affect any college player’s eligibility. i Foss declared “the negotiation j list was compiled by the owners; without the knowledge of myself or my office. I was embarrassed that the poll was taken without the knowledge of my office. I am told that this was done because of my feelings against any sort of player selection prior to the regu-! lar draft.” j He added, however, that since; this does not give a club the right j to sign a player prior to Dec. 2,j "I might have approved the nego tiation list, as such, as a player scouting measure.” Caqers Open Dec. 2 THU SCIIKIHH.E: D«t.

There were 36 teams competing in the meet with over 175 indi vidual entries. The top ten teams in the order of finish were: Michigan State, Penn State, Villanova, Manhattan, Army, Princeton, Cornell, Syra cuse, LaSalle and Fordham. Penn State's two freshmen, Colin Grant and Jim Lampman, finished 6th and 7th in their race. Grant might have done better but at one point on the course he was pushed off the path and had to recover the lost ground. Villanova won the frosh meet with a phenominal 17-point score. Tgrry Sullivan, who has run a 4:02 mile, won the race. He was followed by two other Wildcat freshmen. Hawks Sian Levane ST. LOUIS (JP) Owner Ben Kerner dipped into the ranks of his former coaches yester day and picked Fuzzy Levane to coach the slumping St. Louis Hawks for the balance of the 1961-62 National Basketball As sociation season. Levane, 41, succeeds Paul Seymour, 33, who was fired Friday amid evidence of a widening rift between him and his veteran front line of Bob Peilil. Clyde Lovellette and Cliff Hagan. WINSTON TASTES GOOD like a cigarette should 7 | Booters Close at Home Neither the snow nor the op-1 ponents have soccer coach Ken Hosterman worried about today’s game against Pitt. The game, which is scheduled to start at 2:30 pjn. on the soccer field next to the iee rink, will close out State’s season. "We have the snow plows alert ed and as for Pitt, I’m sure we can beat them,” Hosterman said yesterday prior to sending his booters through a light workout on the snow-covered practice field. "I can remember in 1955 R. 1. Reynolds Tobacco Co., Winston-Salem, N. G against Piif when there was about two and one-halt feet of snow on the field, but we cleared it off and played the game," he said. "The field looked like an ice skating rink with all the snow piled-up around the sides—but we played the game." Getting back to the serious side of the game, Hosterman is confi dent that his booters will pick up their fourth win against five losses. "Frankly if we play like we did against Army, well kill them," he said. State lost to the Cadets, 4-2 Friday, but Hosterman called it TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 21. 1961 the finest performance of the sea son. "Pitt shouldn't have beaten us the past two years based on the shots and the locks of the teams, so we have something to make up for," Hosterman said. "How ever, I am looking for a typical Pitt-Stale game because of the tremendous rivalry." The Panthers won their first four games of the season, but since then have gone stone cold, dropping four while tying one.. Six seniors will be playing in their final game for the Lions: Dave Grubbs, John Miller, Leland Lance, Howie Farrer, Glenn Ream and Dick Kuplen.
