WHAT'S HAPPENING: Major League Ball Back in Sport Limelight CLEARWATER-Richie Allen, the Philadelphia Phillies' star third baseman still recovering from a severely cut hand suffered last season, unexpectedly left training camp, the club said yesterday. No reason was given for Allen's sudden departure. He had not participated in workouts Thursday: Allen severly cut his right hand last season when he ac- cidentally pushed it through an auto headlight near his Phila- delphia home. Despite nerve damage, the big, slugging infielder, apparently was making progress and getting ready for this sea- son. There was some talk the 25-year-old Allen might be shifted to the outfield if his fielding was bothering him. He could not be reached for comment immediately. * * *4 ST. PETERSBURG-Tom Seaver of the New York Mets, the National League's Rookie-of-the-Year in 1967, narrowly escaped serious injury yesterday when he was hit on the head with a line drive. The young right-hander was walking toward the outfield during practice when coach Eddie Yost hitting grounders to in- fielders accidentally slammed a line drive that caught Seaver on the back of his head. Seaver was taken to a hospital where x-rays were negative. He said he would be ready to pitch Saturday when the Mets face St. Louis in their opening exhibition game. PARIS (P) - A letter from French Olympic ski cham- pion Jean-Claude Killy, swearing he was not paid by a maga- zine for exclusive photos, has been forwarded to the Inter- national Ski Federation as evidence that Killy had not violated his amateur standing. At stake are the three gold medals Killy won in the winter Olympics at Grenoble last month and his continued participation in amateur ski meets counting for the World Cup.

IOWA TITLE-BOUND Cougars and Bonnies See 'First Action By The Associated Press Top-ranked Houston and third- rated St. Bonaventure carry the nation's only perfect college bas- ketball records into the first round of the National Collegiate tournament tonight. Seven games at four scattered sites get the championship off the ground with most of the in- terest centered at Salt Lake City, Utah, where All-American Elvin Hayes, guard Don Chaney, and their Houston mates shoot for their 30th straight victory - 29 this season - against Loyola of Chicago and at Kingston, R.I., where St. Bonaventure, 22-0, plays Boston College. These are openers pointing to the semifinals' and finals at Los Angeles March 22-23.

South Carolina, should it win the ACC, is ineligible to com- pete in either tourney. Cagers Challenge First-Plae Hawks By JOEL BLOCK It's not the Houston-UCLA Clas- sic, but it's a big game neverthe- less. When Michigan forward Rudy Tomjanovich jumps against Iowa center Dick Jensen tonight at 8:30 (est) =in Iowa City two Big Ten basketball championships may be on the line. For the Hawkeyes, a victory means undisputed possession of their first conference cage title Tonight's game between Mich- igan and Iowa can be heard over WCBN, WAAM and WUOM-FM. Game time is, 8:30 p.m. since 1956, and a chance to com- pete In the NCAA Mideast re- gional at Kentucky on March 15 and 16. A loss in today's game will give ,the Hawkeyes a chance to play in a different kind of game, a play-off contest with co- champion Ohio State. The play- off, first of its kind in Big Ten history, will be held next Tues- t Conferene T o R estrict TV, Contests By The 'Associated Press CHICAGO - The Big Ten once again has moved to curtail the telecasting of sellout football games. At a meeting of faculty repre- sentatives and athletic directors, A the Big Ten moved to add fur- thei television restrictions which are allowed under the code of the National Collegiate Athletic As- sociation. Under the NCAA .rules, an in- stitution is permitted to telecast a sellout game if there is no conflict of other games in the area and if the game involved is outside of a 400-mile, radius. The Big Ten is aiming to dis- courage all telecasts except, of course, the NCAA's game of the week. day at Purdue's brand new arena. For the Wolverines, it could be the stepping off point for a suc- cessful run at next year's Big Ten championship. It would cap the Wolverines' .current three - game winning streak, a streak which has in- cluded winsoverhMinnesota, Northwesternrand previous title- contender Purdue. The game also means the end of senior captain Jim Pitts' col- lege career. Pitts is the lone sur- viving teammate of Cazzie Rus- sell, and his departure means the end of one era and the beginning of another. He has been Michi- gans steadiest player this season, averaging 19.2 points per confer- ence game while pulling down 7.5 rebounds- per contest. No Sponge The stakes are high for both teams, and Iowa coach Ralph Miller knows it. "If we're mental- ly down tomorrow, we'll lose," he predicted last night. "This Michigan team isn't going to throw in the sponge for any- body," he went on. The Hawkeyes are on a streak of their own, a four-game binge, and'have won seven out of their last eight. The main cause for their consistency has been the addition of Glenn "Stick" Vidno- vic to the starting line-up. The spindly 6'5" sophomore for- ward joined the team exactly eight games ago and his added 13.8-point scoring punch has in- The Lineups IOWA (5) Sam Williams (44) .

"Glenn has been a great help in that he's given us some more offense on the front line," Miller lauded. "We've got a much more balanced scoring attack with shooters from both sides of the court, and he's taken some of the pressure off Sam Williams." End for Williams The ever-present Sam Williams will also be playing in his last regularly-scheduled Big Ten game tonight. Williams is currently sec- ond to sensational soph Rick Mount in Big Ten scoring with a 25.3 average. Williams' 34 points against Minnesota Monday night put him one ahead of Don Nelson's 572- point Iowa scoring record for a single season. Also graduating with Wililams will be Breedlove, Rich Agnew, a 6'6" forward, Rol- ly McGrath, 6'1" guard, and Dave White, 6' guard. Another Sophomore One of Miller's returning play- ers is starting sophomore guard Chad Calabria. Calabria is Iowa's second-leading scorer in the con- ference at 15.8 points per game. In the first Michigan-Iowa game this year at the Events Building, he victimized the Wolverines with a flurry of 15-foot jump shots, tal- lying 23 points in the 99-86 rout. When asked what his greatest problem will be today with the Wolverines, Miller asserted "Just beating them will be enough of a task. "This club (the Wolverines) has been very late in jelling. But their last three games have proved that they're a strong team now and they're a lot better than what Sports Illustrated said about them," he said. The current issue of Sports Il- lustrated calls Michigan "perhaps one of the two weakest teams in the league." Miller stated about the Big Ten, "I have always felt there never has been a great dif- ference between the teams in this league from top to bottom." Strategywise, Iowa will use their familiar full-court press, hoping to force Michigan into the same sophomoric mistakes they made last year and the first half of this year. Miller said that his teams never concentrate on de- fending against a high-scorer such as Rudy Tomjanovich but that he runs a "five-man defense." Last Chapce Today's game gives outgoing senior Jim Pitts a chance to better his luke-warm showing in Michi- gan's last encounter with the Hawkeyes. In that game he hit a disappointing six for 18 from the field and 16 points overall. Pitts will be working against Sam Williams on offense but will undertake the unenviable task 01 covering the Detroit Northerr product on defense. One factor which is sure to gc against the Wolverines is the Hawkeyes' home court advantage. They haven's lost a Big Ter game in the Iowa Field House yet this season, and 12,900 deter- mined fans have already boughi it out for this game. r a r t i f 2 e t t INDIA'STUDENTS'ASSOCIATION and CENTER FOR SOUTH & SOUTHEAST ASIAN STUDIES PRESENT A TALK O MR.
