A Homecoming throng of 60,000 is expected to be on hand for the 1:30 p.m. kickoff to get a first look at coach Joe Paterno's new team. However, the '73 edition of the Lions looks surprisingly Roundup West won't play for the 'last place' Lakers LOS ANGELES', (AP) Wilt Chamberlain is gone and Jerry West says he's almost certain to quit whicfP would leave the Los Angeles Lakers with only two-fifths of the, starting team that made a shambles i of the National Basketball Association two years ago. Chamberlain jumped Wednesday to the San Diego Conquistadors of the American Basketball Association. Forward Jim McMillian was traded to Buffalo for 7-foot center Elmore Smith. West, 35-year-old perennial all-pro guard, says he wants his contract renegotiated for security, not money. He said he doesn't want to play for what he calls a bad team and, adds that it's "99 per cent I won't pla3j." In addition to West, only Happy Hairston, a forward; and guard Gail Goodrich remain as veteran starters of the 1971-72 championship team that won 33 straight games and 69 for the regular season, both league records. West, after observing an intrasquad game, said, "Right now the Lakers are a last-place team." NEW YORK (AP): There will be eight sellouts, meaning no television blackouts, in the National Football League this weelqnd, the league announced yesterday} An NFL spokesman said that according to information the league has received, the following Sunday games have been sold out: New England at Mirni, the New York Jets at Buffalo, Oaklard at Kansas City, Chicago at Denver, Green Bay at Minnesota, Los Angeles at San Francisco and • Washington at Philadelphia. In addition, he said,lAtlanta at Detroit Monday night is alsoia sellout. Recent legislation pOs sed by Congress states there can be do local television blackout of any game sold out 72 hours in advance. Games not sold out and subject to blackouts are Cincinnati at San Diego, takes own team as Collegian prognosticator What does University President John Oswald do in his spare time? The former DePauw gridder still follows the game. Oswald revealed he knew something about college football when he agreed to be the guest prognosticator for this week's "Collegian Big Ten." Oswald, a logical choice for the Homecoming piper, gazed at the list, sat down and circled his picks before you could sing the first line of the alma mater. Even though the games were tougher than previous weeks, Oswald didn't hestitate when the close games came up. He sided with Penn State against fumbling lowa and like the '72 edition, and the '7l and the '70... The Hawkeyes, a young team coached by Frank Lauterbur have fallen on hard times so far this season with big losses to UCLA and Michigan. The Hawkeyes have committed 12 turnovers in the tWo . games, seven fumbles and five interceptions, all of which is not very conducive to winning football. At UCLA last week lowa led the Bruins 10-2 in the second period but then fell' Pittsburgh at Houston, New Orleans at Baltimore, the New York Giants at Clevland and St. Louis at Dallas Sunday, the NFL spokesman said. He added that the eight sellouts will bring the total to 24 in 39 games for the first three weeks of the season. ,'ATLANTA (AP) Hank Aaron's march toward Babe Ruth's record 714 career home runs was delayed last night when the scheduled baseball game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Atlanta Braves was rained out. Aaron, who has blasted 39 homers this season to raise his lifetime production to 712 two short of matching Ruth's total hit his last homer Saturday night in Houston. The 39-year-old Aaron was in Manager Eddie Matthew's lineup for last night's game which won't be rescheduled. Although the Braves have an open date today, the Dodgers travel to San Diego to meet the Padres tonight. The regular baseball season ends Sunday. Atlanta closes out its season against the Houston Astros with single games tomorrow and Sunday. CINCINNATI (AP) Outfielder Bobby Tolan was suspended by the Cincinnati Reds for the rest of,;;the regular baseball season, the National League baseball team announced yesterday. Bob Howsam, president of the NL West division winners said in a statement that Tolan "has been suspended for a continued refusal to take and participate in regular batting 'and fielding practice and for a lack of interest. I feel his attitude has been divisive." Tolan, the 1972 Comeback Player• of the Year, defied a locker room ban last month after a shouting match with a team official - . He left the team for a few days but returned in late August under an ultimatum. The action reduces the Reds roster to the necessary 25 players. added, "Penn State has demonstrated depth that lowa has not." The other featured games, Oklahoma at Southern Cal and AUburn at Tennessee, drew perceptive responses. "Oklahoma will show USC is not the team it was - last year," he predicted. Moving on to the Southern Conference battle Oswald said, "Auburn has had Tennessee's number for the last two years and will make it number three in a row." Oswald has some tough competition if he wants the honor as the top guest predictor. Gov. Milton Shapp inaugurated the "Collegian Big-Ten" with an 8-1-1 mark. Last week Philadelphia Mayor Frank Rizzo copped a 9-1 record. —MS , down after three straight fumbles At Michigan, Lautertitir's men served up four fumbles in the first period and eventually lost 31-7. Against Penn State, similar play most likely will yield similar results. lowa quarterback Kyle Skogman has thrown for one TD, 262 yards and 20 completions in his 43 attempts, four of which have been picked off. Skogman runs lowa's pro type offense which is capable of moving the ball whenever the Hawkeyes can manage to hold onto it long - enough. Last year in Beaver Stadium, Lion quarterback John Hufnagel had to move Penn State 80 yards in the final three minutes to avoid defeat by lowa. Split end Brian Rollins is Skogman's favorite receiver. In last year's game Rollins and Skogman teamed up for a 36- yard touchdown pass that put the Hawkeyes ahead. Hufnagel then hit tight end Dan Nat* to account for Penn State's winning 'score-. Rollins has 11 catches for 145 yards and a touchdown this year. Freshman flanker Bill Schultz has four receptions for 73 yards. Running backs Phil Hayman and Jim Jensen share the fullback duties while the tailback chores will be divided between Craig Johnson and Mark Fetter. Defensively, Big Ten tackle leader Andre Jackson, only a sophomore, already has 32 tackles this year. Defensive end Dan Dickel and defensive halfback Earl Douthitt also Big Eight Conference prestige gets a stiff test tomorrow when Oklahoma visits Southern Cal, the reigning Pacific -8 champion. Last year Big Eight teams averaged a full touchdown stronger on the Index than Pac-8 teams. A big Southern Cal victory tomorrow would help restore balance. But the last time Oklahoma lost a game outside the Big Eight was to Texas of the Southwest Conference back in October. 1970. This week the Index gives Oklahoma a 4-point advantage.

Luzinski opened the decisive 13th with a single to left, moved up on Bill Robinson's sacrifice and took third on Bob Boone's single, his fourth hit of the game, before scrambling home when Zachary uncorked a wild pitch with the count one ball and two strikes to Larry Bowa. The loss dromied the Pirates a full game behind thp first-place New York Mets, who were idle. Both teams have four games left as baseball's National League East heads into the final ,weekend of the regular season. The Pirates are at home against the Montreal Expos for three gables and, if necessary, play the San Diego Padres in a makeup game on Monday. The Mets ' play the Cubs four times in Chicago. The Phillies jumped out to a 2-0 lead off Pirate starter Bruce Kison in the first inning when leadoff batter Bill Grabarkewitz walked and Del Unser followed with a homer, his 11th of the season over the rightfields wall. Pittsburgh retaliated in its half of the first when Dave Cash opened with a double and Al Oliver cracked his 20th homer, a line shot that just cleared the wall in right. Phillie starter Barry Lersch then retired the next 19 Pirates in a row before Richie Hebner stroked a two-out have turned in good performances for the Hawkeyes in the first two games. "lowa is a young team that has been hurting itself with turnovers," Paterno said. "lowa has the potential to be a good team and could cause some trouble if they stop hurting themselves with turnovers." Penn State, meanwhile, has given up four fumbles and a pass interception but the defense has covered the mistakes so far. According to the National Collegiate Sports Services, the Lions are fourth in scoring defense and sixth in both total defense and rushing defense nationally. Richmond, Notre Dame, and lowa State lead Penn State in points allowed while the Lions are tied with Souther Cal after giving up six points in the first two games. Penn State wide receiver Gary Hayman is the only Lion among the statistical leaders. Hayman's 13.3-yard average return on punts ties him for tenth. Paterno is satisfied with Penn State's performance so far this season, but still looks for improvement. "I don't think we have had a team play this well this early in the season, but we have to continue to improve," Paterno said. "That's what counts, getting better each week. "The defense has played well and we have been getting good kicking. That has kept the pressure on the other team. They look up and see they have to go 80 yards to score.
