I SIx THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, JUNE 9,1967 USAC Asks Turbine Car Investigation By The Associated Press CHICAGO, Ill.-Anthony "An- dy" Granatelli figures the United States Auto Club virtually has ap- proved his controversial turbine race car., The president of Studebaker's STP Division said in a statement last night that a decision to refer the question of the engine's power output to a committee of turbine experts "is tantamount to ap- proval." The USAC yesterday sent the issue to General Electric, Ford, Chrysler and Pratt & Whitney, which built the plant for Grana- telli. The companies were asked to draw a formula whch would equal- ize turbines with piston engines for championship racing. Size and compression may have to be lim- ited. Both Thomas W. Binford, USAC president, and Henry Banks, the club's director of competition, agreed it was unlikely the turbine would be banned. Protests against the powerful turbine 'mounted even before Par- nelli Jones ran away from the field in the Indianapolis 500-mile race May 31. Opponents said the turbine represented not an improvement of the breed of racing engines but a new breed. They agreed it should race, but with other turbines and not piston-engines machines that have been a standard for decades. USAC's call to turbine experts came after a two-day post-500 evaluation by its rules committee. The experts' ratings will be con- sidered by club directors June 26. Binford and Banks said the formula, under which Granatelli built his car in three years, was not arrived at by acident. They said aircraft engineers and tur- bine specialists were consulted. Both said it is possible the ex- p arts will arrive at the same for- mula. Clay Subpoena Plan Rejected HOUSTON ( P) - Cassius Clay lost a round in Federal Court yes- terday. U.S. Dist. Judge Joe In- graham rejected a subpoena mo- tion filed for the former world's heavyweight boxing champion. Ingraham upheld government objections to a plea that Lt. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey and others be subpoenaed to produce informa- tion for Clay's scheduled June 19 trial on a charge of refusing to be drafted into the miiltary service.

Chicago Splits Set with Boston; Two-Run Error Beats Redlegs MEXICO CITY - Construction work has now started on all pro- jects for the 1968 Olympic Games and the men who head the Mexi- can Organizing Committee remain confident everything will be ready when competition starts Oct. 12. The last Olympic construction to get started was the cycling velodrome and ground recently was broken for it. The Olympic village, the sports palace, the row- ing and canoeing canal, the swim- ming pool and yachtingefacilities in Acapulco already were under construction. The expansion of University Stadium, the main sta- dium for the Games, is reported on schedule. Mexico is spending about $70 million for the Games.aThis in- cludes construction, expansion of existing facilities and all other costs involved in presenting the games. The cost is a good bit lower than the cost of the Games in Toyo or Rome. Tk organizing committee gets its first really big test this October during the third international sports week. Estimates from the committee now are that perhaps as many as 40 nations will send teams to the Little Olympic competition. Some of tl Olympic construc- tion will not be finished then but much of it will be ready for use.

Fisher Named All-Conference; Zahn, Redmon Make 2nd Team Campbell said the average earn. ings of an NHL player in 1966-6' amounted to $24,000 or $25,000, with an average base of $18,226 plus bonus and pension consider- ation. "I hope we are not doing any other sport harm," Campbell said. "But it's no use pretending we've got less if we've got more." The NHL governors also agreed to retain one set of individual trophies and awards and one all- star team for the 1967-68 season. Under the new two-divisional alignment, each of the six expan- sion clubs will play all but 24 of 74 games in its own division, and Campbell said the league would strive for future all-star games between select teams from each division. The all-star game was set for next Jan. 16 in Toronto, with the Maple Leafs-last season's Stan- ley Cup champions-opposing the 1966-67 all-stars. At least one representative from every club. including the six newcomers, will be on the squad. Toronto General Manager Punch Imlach, meanwhile, claimedhe had given the new Los Angeles Kings fair warning at Tuesday's expansion draft before protecting Red Kelley- thwarting the 39- year-old veteran's !move to Los Angeles as coach. Kelley and Kings owner, Jack~ Kent Cooke, have filed protests, charging, the Maple Leafs broke a bargain b ynot making Kelley available. 4 By The Associated Press Joel Horlen won his seventh straight game for the Chicago White Sox in the American League, beating the Boston Red Sox 5-2 in the opener of a dou- bleheader. Boston won the secoid game 7-3 and kept the runner-up White Sox 1% games back of the idle first place Detroit Tigers. Horlen, a right-hander who is unbeaten this season, scattered six hits in his fourth complete game in 10 starts. Tommie Agee got three hits to pace the White Sox attack off loser Dennis Bennett. Ollie Brown's tie breaking sin- gle and a two-run throwing error by John Edwards gave the San Francisco Giants three eighth inning runs that lifted them by Cincinnati 6-5. The loss broke a string of 11 straight one-run decisions for the league leading Reds, but they re- main in first place in -the Na- tional League. Rich Reichardt climaxed a home run barrage with a two-run shot in the sixth inning that brought California from behind to a 6-5 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. The Angels were trailing 5-4 when Jimmy Hall singled and Reichardt connected off loser Stu Miller, 1-5. It was his seventh homer. Felipe Alou's ninth inning sin- gle brought the rallying Atlanta Braves a 5-4 victory over Los An- geles. Denis Menke had opened the ninth with a walk and inoved to second on Woody Woodward's sacrifice. After pinch hitter Mike de la Hoz was retired, Alou sin- gled to right, scoring Menke and breaking a 4-4 deadlock. Max Alvis, who led off the game with a homer, capped a four-run ninth inning with a two-run blast that boosted Cleveland past Min- nesota 7-5. The Twins had taken a 5-3 lead into the inning after scoring four times in the eighth, but the In- dians unloaded against reliever Al Worthington. But pinch hitter Duke Sims sin- gled, and the tying run scored on a wild pitch. Then Alvis connected for his ninth homer. Bob Gibson fired a four-hitter and Julian Javier's leadoff homer in the fifth inning snapped a tie as St. Louis whipped Houston 6-2.

According to an independent survey (we took it ourselves), a startling new practice is becoming widespread on some college campuses. Suddenly, fraternity men are no longer "pinning" the lovely young things that catch their eye. Instead, they reach for a bottle of tart, tingling Sprite--and proceed to "cap" f the object of their affections. Why has this come about? SPerhaps because of what happens -low when you go through the ceremony of opening a bottle of Sprite. It fizzes! Roars! Buzzes! Tingles! Bubbles! All of which makes for a much more moving moment than to simply "pin" a girl. Then, too, the intimacy of two people engaged in the act of opening a bottle of Sprite in itself leads to strong emotional involvement. Capped off, of course, by the sharing of a few moments of delicious abandon. (Tasting the tingling tartness of Sprite, that is.) The beauty of the idea is that if the course of true love does not run smooth, you don't have to go to the trouble of getting back your pin. You just buy another bottle of Sprite. .
