j SHATTERS RECORD (Mason
' Dixon Game, Louisville, Ky.)—
Tommie Smith, of San Jose
State, shattered the world in
door record Satur. night Feb.
18 in the 440-yard run in the
his college career. The points
scored in these contests will
count in his totals.
The Zips took an early lead
and had stretched it to an 8-
point margin at the 11:00 mark
of the first half, leading 21-13.
It was at that point that the
Rams came to life and managed
to lead at halftime 47-42.
The second half opened with
a fired up Ram team racing
to a 15-point lead and then
slowing the pace of the game.
The Zipg began to guard
Monroe more cloaely putting
two men on him when he had
the ball. When Monroe waa un
able to get a good ahot, he waa
effective in hitting an open
man, especially William Eng
lish or drawing a foul.
The Rams had rolled to a 68-
53 lead by the 11:51 mark. The
Zips called time out four times
in an effort to halt the Ram's
momentum. Akron cut the lead
to 79-69 at the 6:05 mark, but
they could not get any closer
than the final margin.
William English, the only
Ram other than Monroe to hit
in double figures, scored 9
points and grabbed 11 re
bounds to lead both teams off
Ihe boards.
Five Akron players scored in
double figures,
"We're due and haven't
been beaten badly all season,"
said Miller.
No Choice
Coach Ira Norfolk of At
lantic Christian called the
tournament "a definite toss
up" and would hot single out
a favorite.
The tournament was sched
uled to begin in the YMCA
here at 7:00 p.m. Wednesday
with Lenoir Rhyne meeting
the winnMkof the Presbyten
an-Newbeffr game. The sec
ond game was to start 20 min
utes after the end of the first.
It was to match Guilford and
Atlantic Christian.

Says Red
BOSTON - Red Auer
bach, ouspoken general man
ager of the Boston Celtics, criti
cized the National Basketball
Association Monday for "bally
hooing" the shooting percentage
of Philadelphia's Wilt Chamber-
Jain.
"It is downright foolish to,
base Wilt's shooting percentage
on his 'stuf(s,' " Auerbach told
the Boston basketball writers'
luncheon. "The figures are not
indicative oi shooting accuracy
when vou count stuffed baskets.
"Good shooters like Oscar
Robertson, Sam Jones, Rick
Barry, Don Ohl and Kevin
Loughery suffer when they ac
tually are better shooters than
Wilt."
Auerbach looked ahead to the
time when Lew Alcindor,
UCLA's sensational 7-foot-2
sophomore, will be in the NBA.
