To open the third annual one-on-one, he had lured Alderman Larry Little and assistant recreation director Thomas Gavin to the basketball court. e Shedding their ties and coats, the two former jocks returned to their days of glory as they joked with each other before the match began. The seriousness was still there, however; for once you are an athlete the will to win and the competitive spirit never fade. Gavin had already worked up a sweat by 6:00, having | beaten a challenger easily. Little, who had a Board of u Aldermen's meeting at 7:30 p.m., had arrived in such a L hurry that he left his headlights on outside as he worked hard in the gym searching for the magic that made him one of the city's finest players in the late '60's. ?

Thd match started soon after, with only about 10 spectators watching but neither of the two competitors noticed. Both looked as if they could still hold their own as they took the court. Gavin at 5-11 stated he was "a little overweight at 187 pounds" while Little stood 6-1, 180 pounds with his long arms making him appear taller. Starting slowly both men missed jumpers from the 18 foot range before Little used some niftly ballhandling to back in like Oscar Robertson used to and hit a fall away 10 footer.

Two turnarounds and a jumper from the key by Little were interrupted by a 16 footer by Gavin before Little closed out the 12 point game with a swishing 25 footer. The one-on-one had begun with two athletes who didn't make the big time in pro sports, but found that a ball is not the only way to make it breathing hard and perspiring profusely. As they shook hands and smiled at each other, it was obvious that each had enjoyed themselves and also had a better prospective of what athletics is all about. - ' f COMING IN AUGUST f^_ /I Black [I ^^?bllegef Cooper 722*8624^ TO^^hronic^ -Brio 1?
